On The Way
To Bug House
With a Cry

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 252.-All the
elevator boys in a certain big down
town skyscraper are worried today for
fear they will go crazy and have to
be sent to MilIedgeville, while the
tenants of the buildings are - the
opinion that they have already lost
their minds.
Yesterday the benevolent manage
ment of the building, anxious to do
everything it could for the tenants,
and firmly believing in the safety first
policy, had the bright idea of making
a rule by which every elevator boy
must say to every person getting into
or out of an elevator:
Watch your step"
1t sounds all right once, but when
you ride fifteen stories, and hear the
elevator boy repeat it some twenty
times as people go in and out, while
you hear echoes of the same musical
comedy phrase from other elevators
going up and down the shaft, it finally

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 25.-
Speaker Clark, after the conference

He said there are rumors current to
that effect, the postponement being
made in order to give the United States

Wild
Cat Ever Seen

ATLANTA, Ga.,, Feb. "a. The larg-
est wild cat ever seen in Georgia,
weighing more than forty pounds, has
been killed by Dan Sweat, aged II, and
his brother, Charles, aged 9, near
Waycross. The wildcat got into the
barnyard and attacked a dog belong
ing to the boys. 1t was so large they
thought it was another dog, and see
ing their dog getting the worst of it,
they mixed in with couple of clubs.
The cat clawed them a time or two,
but they succeeded in killing it after
an exciting fight.

WOMAN'S WORD IS
GROUND OF CASE

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 25.--The MUIR
der tI:al of ]. H. Miles, now on in the
criminal court here, is unique in the
facS thai it has developed into Matte
of women's wits, and that the pris-
oner's life hangs on the question of
mich woman the jury will believe
and which woman the jury will put in
the femals auxiliary of the Ananias
cldb
The principal witnesses for both the
stat and the defense are women. They
tell Numerically opposite stories of
the killing.
Mrs. Berkey sister Of the slain man,
Anderson Eady, has testified that she
had her arm around Eady at the time
that Miles fired the shot, and that
Miles could not have been acting in
self defense.
Miss Annie Bundick, stepdaughter of
Miles, goes on the stand today to con-
tradict, as an eye witness, the testi-
mony of Mrs. Berkey.
There are several other female wit
nesses on each side. They are all in
court. Each side follows the testimony
Of the other side with shaking of
Leads and pursuing of lips, and the
situation is hourly becoming more
dramatic.

WHY SUFFER FROM BAcKAcHE, LUMBAGo, RHEUMATIsM

from hardening and thickening of the
walls of the arteries. due to the ex-
cess of uric acid in the blood and It's
sues.
DR.. Pierce, chief physician at the In
yalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N T., has been testing this
wonderful medicine for the relief of
oyerworked and weakened kidneys.
The relief obtained by sufferers has
been 80 satisfactory that he deter.
mined to place "ANURIC" with the
principal druggists in town where
people could get this ready-to-use
medicine.
"ANURIC" is not harmful or poison
Gus, but aids nature In throwing off
those poisons within the body which
cause so much suffering, pain and
misery.
If you want quick relief buy it
now-or send Dr. Pierce 10c for trial

will prove to you that "Anuric' elimi-
