scene, blue birds and flowers being
much in evidence in this room. Sus-

he TAKES THE ENTIRE STATE.
Of GEORGIA by STORM

John Pomeroy, the eminent New
Zealand scientist, is now the talk of
the entire state.
His health theories are being dis
cussed in all cities, towns, villages and
rural districts. In fact, Pomeroy is
taking the entire state by storm.
In recent interview he said: "The
stomach is the organ that governs
the health of mankind. If it is toned
up, strengthened and it's functions
regulated and properly directed, the
other organs will respond and the
general health and strength will be
restored.
''In many cases, such maladies as
rheumatism, so-called kidney disor-
ders, enrvousness, general debility
and a score of other ailments may
be traced directly to the derange-
ment of the stomach. In other words,

A Shampoo That
Makes Brilliant Hair

Ordinary soaps and cheap sham
poos leave the hair sticky and covered
with thick filmy substance that en-
dangers it's life and makes it harsh
and lifeless and ugly. For the hair
only the most perfect blend of Cocoa
nut and Palm Oils as combined in
Shuco Shampoo should be used.
Shuco Shampoo is so prepared that
it will completely rinse out leaving
no unpleasantness. 1t brings out the
lustre and brilliance and makes the
hair glossy like silk. Two or three
teaspoonfuls applied to the wetted
hair and rubbed briskly at once
changes into a bushel of sparkling,
bubbling, snowy-white lather, which
completely rinses out leaving the hair
glossy, silky, fluffy and wavy. Your
mirror will tell you why Shuco Sham
poo makes hair with a thousand
lights. AT all good druggists. adv

OPERA HOUSE SELECTED
FOR BRENAU GLEE CLUB.

The Opera House has been chosen
as the most central place to have the
Brenau Glee Club program, and this
will be shown Monday evening under
the auspices ofsthe Music Study Club.
About twenty-five young women COM
pose the personnel of the club, and
the stage direction will be under the
management of Miss Mary Ella Per-
ry, who also wrote the libretta to
be given. The coming of the glee
club to Americas is of especial in
terest to the people now living in
Americas who once attended this in
stltution. One former student re-
calls that during her stay at Brenau,
about the year 1900, the name was
Georgia Female Seminary and Con-
servatory of Music, and that upon the
occasion of the student body going
to or coming from the institution,
hearing remarks made concerning
the letters on their caps reading &c.
F. s." and the boys calling the stu
dent body Georgia, Florida and
Southern. 1t was decided at this
time to change the name of the insti-
tuition, and the faculty spent one en-
tire night trying to decide upon
suitable name for so splendid
school. After hours of deliberation,
the name of "Brenau" was chosen as
representing the finest quality, and
meaning refined, or FURNISHED gold"
This name it has borne since that
time. The glee club has splendid
talent among its members, and the
program is said to be one of the most
attractive ever presented in this sec
ton.
