Only Breaks Leg in
Fall From Fourth
Floor Hotel Window

After having fallen or jumped
from the fourth story of the Ter
minal hotel, corner Mitchell and
Madison avenue, to the concrete
pavement below, a man who signed
his name on the hotel register as J.
A. Long, of Detroit. Mich, was taken
to Grady hospital at about 1890
o'clock Tuesday morning suffering
from broken leg and small cut on
the chin. Physicians believe he will
recover.
The injured man, on regaining con-
seriousness, refused to make a state
ment as to whether he fell or
jumped. He gave the name of J. A.
Hunch, of Griffin, Ga, to the attend
which he registered at the hotel
Monday evening.
The man had no baggage or iden-
LITIGATION papers with him or in his
to his room after the fail, they
found that the door was locked and
all the furniture and bedding had
been piled against the door. En-
trance was forced, but no clue was
found which would explain the CIT
pedestrians on Mitchell street
Tuesday morning looked up to see
the body Of a man falling like a
plummet from the fourth story OF
the hotel. They rushed up expect,
ing to find the man injured past
recovery, and rushed him in an au-
tomobile to Grady hospital. Little
blood was in evidence, the man haV'
ing struck the pavement feet first
according to indications.
On. examination the physicians
found that the man was suffering
from a badly fractured thigh, a cut
on his chin, and serious bruises
about the body. They did not con-
slider him fatally injured.
Within a short time he had recov'
cred consciousness and was talking
to the physicians. He refused to say
anything concerning his fall and
shook his head when asked how il
happened.
The police believe it is a case OF
attempted suicide. This theory was
strengthened by the fact that furni-
ture had been piled against the door
of the hotel room occupied by the
injured man.
The desk clerk at the hotel sale
that the man, who registered as j
A. Long, Of Detroit, had acted pc
culiarly on the evening before, anc
that he seemed to be sick.
Since the injured man gave his
name to the hospital authorities as
Iieve that relatives in Atlanta may
be. located. He wore an old hat con-
tanning the name of an Atlanta
haberdashery shop, and seemed tc
be about forty years old:
The fact that he was not instant
ly killed by the fall was considered
miracle.

calomel just remember that your

to take and is a. perfect substitute
for Calomel. 1t is guaranteed to
start your liver without stirring you
up inside, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t can not be

Early Recognition Of
Oregon Government
Urged on President
ASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, March 8.-Early
recognition of the Obregon govern
ment in Mexico has been recommend
ed strongly to President Harding by
Elmer Dover, his personal represen-
tatiVe, m conveying a message 10 the
Mexican president.
1t also was learned today that Mr..
Harding, on the day of his Inaugural
ton, received Manuel Vargas, Obre-
CONS representative in this country.
Vargas was presented by Mr.. Dover,
an old political friend of Mr.. Har-
ding's, and reported to be the presi-
dents choice for chairman of the Re
publican national committee. Vargas
conveyed to Mr.. Harding a letter
from Obregon, a response to the Har-
ding message which Mr.. Dover deliv-
cred to the Mexican executive last
January.
By this interchange of messages,
containing expressions of good will
from the presidents of the two re-
publics, the preliminaries have been
concluded and the road is open to ne
gotiations which should lead to Amer
lean recognition of Mexico, in Mr..
Dover's opinion.
Since his return from Mexico, Mr..
Dover has told the president that he

ARE YOU ONE?
Who Is Always Too Busy to Help 10
Save Your Own
Life?

Gazing out of a window of his
home a little boy who was looking
up into the starlit heavens suddenly
exclaimedI
Mamma. will I go to heaven some
day9"
''Yes, dear. IL you are good"
"And you will be there?"
II hope 80. And papa, too" she
added.
The boy shook his head positively.
mo-" he said, papa won't be
there. He couldn't leave the store"
There are thousands of men and
women who are so engrossed with
the one thing that they are doing
that they think they are too busy for
other things. They cannot "leave the
store"
The business man wrapped up in
the details of his schemes for acquir-
ing money cannot afford time for
anything else. There is the woman
who is too busy with her maze of
social and club engagements to give
much thought to her household.
Thousands of men and women are so
busy in their quest for pleasure and
excitement as to exclude every other
thought.
One of the great curses of present.
day life is that everybody is "too
busy" as Robert Burdette puts 1t, "to
get away from the crowd for a while,
and think, TO stand at one side and
let the world run by, while you get
acquainted with yourself"
If you want to know what actual
happiness is, to possess real peace of
mind, TO feel that contentment which
satisfies do not be so busy with the
things that you are doing that you
cannot give a little bit of your time
at least to those things which en-
noble and enrich life. Do not be too
busy with the store.
