John,s-Debt Does Damage.

Once upon q time John Myers owed
a man 81 But that was long ago and
John paid him and 1t was supposed to
be a closed incident. Wednesday
morning John, with something the
matter with his head. wanted to pay
the 81 all over again. The man. who
knew John pretty well. tried to ex-
plain to him that he owed no money
but John became insulted because he
wasn't to be allowed to pay debt
twice.
This was, all very strange, since
most people tend toward an opposite
disposition. John got very noisy and
was about to cry when cop took
charge of him and informed John
that he needed that 81 to help out on
collateral. The worst part of It..
however, was that John only
imagined he had g, because In reality
he didn't have a cent Not having
worked for so long as to have fore
gotten what money looked like. The
court sent him down for ninety days
where Mr.. Whitaker will teach him
how to hoe onions.
Adele Doesn't Shave.
One night this week Frank Walker
was asleep In his home on Virginia
avenue where someone tip toed into the
house and swiped his razor and a 81
bill from his coat pocket. He ac-
cused Adele Brown, his former sweet
heart. The Court could easily under
stand how Adele could use the 3,
fore didn't need to steal a razor.
Adele was searched. but no money
was found, while Frank swore that
Adele was the girl who took the
things. Adele said that Frank was
sore because she stopped going with
him and the Court must have had
faith in her statements as 1t ser
her free.
Fred Was q Turk.
Fred Goodall and his wife have
been separated for about five years.
Wifey just naturally vanished and
left Fred free. He struck up an
acquaintance with Mary Carter. Now
Mary was so glad to have a beau that
she didn't even require a reference
from Fred. Fred had a mysterious
piece of paper and he talked a lit
tie to a preacher and the preacher
shook hands with both OF them and
Mary thought 1t was regular cere-
mony.
OF course it wasn't the preachers S
fault, as he knew nothing of Fred's
little game. So they feathered their
nest and shortly after the first storm
broke. Fred told Mary in the heat
Of an argument that she wasn't his
wife. The landlady had them both
arrested, contending that Mary knew
all about 1t. The Court thought that
way, too, and each was fined S25.
JUS an Irish Picnic.
"Jedge, All was standin' talkin' to
nah husband and these two womans
cum up and thowed bricks at me"
said Edith Webb, when she accused
Georgiana and Mary De Vaughn OF
assault. Last week Edith's husband
had one of the De Vaughns arrest
ed and the case was dismissed. There
was considerable hard feeling be-
tween the Webbs and the De Vaughns
and Just why two OF them Lit into
Edith and not her husband Is hard
to tell.
Last Sunday Edith and her hubby
were standing on l street northeast
when the two De Vaughns came up
and Edith said they started bonn
bardment with bricks, cobblestones
and everything else. Edith got a
brick in the back of the neck and
it was a vision of starland for awhile
for Edith. The Court placed the De
Vaughns on their personal bonds 10
be good and let Edith alone.

An AGED COUPLE
Tell How They Regained Strength and
VigOr.


Steubenville, Ohio-My husband is
10 years old and l am IS years of age
and we owe our good health to Vinol,
the greatest strength creator and
medicine there is. When either one
of us get into a weakened, rundown
condition, Vinol has never failed to
build us up and restore strength. We
have often said we would not be
living now were it not for Who'll
Mary A. Lee.
The reason Vinol is so efficient in
building up strength for weakened.
feeble old people is because it contains
beef and cod liver peptones, iron and
manganese peptonates and glycero-
phosphates, the most successful tonics
known.
We wish every person in Americas
who is suffering from a weakened, run
down, devitalized condition would try
Vinol on our guarantee to return theit
money if it fails to benefit

ing drug store in all Georgia towns.

again giving her lectures on the operas
in Atlanta. and the Constitution to-
day has the following to say:
Mrs. Armand Carroll, whose lectures
on the opera last year at the home OF
Mrs Hugh Willett were distinct fea-
ture of the season, will give similar
series again this year. There will be
a course of seven lectures, one devoted
to each opera, held at Cable hall on
succeeding Tuesday and Friday after
moons, beginning the LIST of April; also
Wednesday, the 18th.
The lectures this year will be given
for the benefit of the Tallulah Falls
Industrial school.
Mrs. Carroll's lectures are distinct
from the usual opera readings which
have been given in the city in years
past Not only does she tell the stiry
of the operas and give illustrations
from the piano score, but she goes
deeply into the meaning and intention
of the composer, and explains and in
terprets in simple fashion the facts OF
the music, which add greatly to the
enjoyment of the operas.

GASOLINE WILL PROBABLY
CONTINUE HIGH DURING
THE COMING SUMMER

WASHINGTON, March 12-Congress
was too busy with other things to look
into the price of gasoline as suggested
by Representative Steyenson's recolu-
ton in the House; and in consequence
automobile owners probably will pay
a good stiff price for their gas again
this year. Thousands of cars were
kept in their garages last year because
was was too high; and unless a sub
stitute is found or prices come down
they probably will stay there this year
too.
