The Georgia Good Roads Association
lms planned to have the matter OF
the proposed $4,000, 600 road bond
issue presented at the spring term OF
court in every county in the state,
and at the district meetings OF the
tate federation of women's clubs,
according to T. G Farmer, Jr
managing director of the good roads
association.
1--WE regard the good road bond
issue as the most important piece OF
legislation coming before the next
legislature, and we have no doubt Of
its passage, if we can get the people
informed as to its benefits" said
Mr.. Farmer in an interview today.
Inquiries concerning the plan have
come in from every section OF the
state ut such rate we have had TO
increase our office force to handle
the correspondence. We are send
ing to each inquirer little good
roads primer and chart showing how
the bonds will he floated and retire
ed, and answering every question
voter could ask regarding the bond
plan"
Sentiment is rapidly crystalizing
in favor of the bonds and by the
bonds and by the time the legislature
meets we expect to see the issue so
popular that no che can be found
who would dare lift his voice to long
er keep Georgia in the mud.

ALMOST WORSHIP THE MANGO
to Think Highly of That Really
Wonderful Tree.

Mango trees line the roads on the
level "like the palm of hand" as
far as the eye can see. These trees
about 40 feet in height clothed in
thick, heavy foliage, not only afford
a welcome cool shade in the hottest
day, but a variety of fruit which is
said to have no rival in sweetness,
flavor, deliciousness and food value
Under these trees the village school
is kept in the forenoon, and the vii
Iage children learn to love them from
their childhood.
Nature is very prolific in the tropics,
for one mango tree may yield almost
half a ton of fruit in one season. The
mango is a fruit varying in size from
a small pear to a large coconut. The
thick skin protects the flavor, and eX-
cept for the stone, the entire fruit is
used in many ways. 1t Is eaten raw,
or rather sucked, cut in Slices made in
to jam. pickles and mango cakes and
is used as a flavor for both sour and
sweet foods.
Mango ice cream is very delicious
food, but, perhaps, of all the trees
products, mango chutney is the most
famous. Mango is also used as a medi-
cine and is a specific for sunstroke,
which it cures almost instantly, The
poor Indian peasant loves this tree to
almost alteration because of its Won
derful qualities.

AUSTRIANS USERS OF ARSENIC
Mountain Folk Make Use of Deadly
Poison for Definite Purpose
Also Fed to Horses.

Inhabitants of Austria, In the
mountains adjoining Hungary, are In
the habit of eating arsenic. The effect
of the poison, when taken in moderate
quantities, is to give freshness to the
complexion, and afterward to impart
certain degree of embonpoint. An
other advantage which the eaters de-
rive from the use of the poison is to
have their respiration facilitated in
ascending the mountain. They place
little piece of arsenic in their mouth,
and they ascend the greatest heights
with ease.
Grooms and coachmen at Vienna
give arsenic to their horses. They
sometimes throw a pinch of it among
the oats, and sometimes tie up a small
bit of it in a linen rag, which they
attach to the bit when the horse is
harnessed. The effect on the horses
Is to put them in high condition, With
the skin smooth and shining, and to
increase their spirits.
The carriers in the mountainous coun-
tries of Austria are also in the habit
of giving arsenic to their horses when
about to ascend a steep road, with the
result that the ascent is made much
easier for the animals.

First Method Of Advertjsino

In Old Testament times when the
countries bordering on The Nile, the
Euphrates and Tigris rivers We're the
center Of trade, the Carthaginian>
used to sail along the Mediterranean
with q houtload of their manufactures
which DIZZY would unload on the coast
Of Lydia, and having lighted a bonfire
near the goods, returned TO their ships
The inhabitants, knowing by the bon
fire that the Carthaginians had some
thing to sell, would come out of their
city to inspect it. Then they would
pile UP gold near the merchandise and
retire into the city. The Carthage
mans would land again, examine the
gold, and if in their Judgment it was
equal in value to the goods they left.
they would take it and sail away.
This bonfire custom is the first
method of advertising Of which his
tory tells.

SCORE ONE MORE FOR NAVY
Damaged Replica Of Old Vessel, 1t
Is Believed, Can Be Repaired
BY Sailors,

Percy @. Madeira, Philadelphia coal
magnate, has joined the ranks OF those
who have taken up the fad Of collect
ing ship models. Madeira's experience
with the first model he bought,
replica Of the American clipper ship
Southern Cross, was an interesting
one, according to the New York Sun.
This miniature ship, 30 inches long,
the coal operator obtained recently
through an agent at Nantucket, who
considered the purchaser lucky in
getting a genuine model at reason
able figure.
The model, with all masts and other
spars In place and with rigging.
blocks, boats, etc, as they should be,
was handsome picture when 1t was
packed for shipment at Nantucket
But when the fragile model reached
Madeira's home it came out of the
packing case nearly wrecked. 1t had
been poorly packed and roughly ham
died on the trip. Madeira looked at
the mass of broken spars and wreckage
and said things about the packer and
also the agent at Nantucket He fig
ured the model little better than
matchwood and that it never could be
repaired
He reckoned, however, without the
United States navy. He happened to
tell his troubles to naval officer sta
toned ar League island and soon
afterward the officer rang the coal
magnate up and said he thought he
had a man who could repair the
wreck.
