using them now because that was
the only way his purpose could be
achieved.
"We must go back to the quite seri-
Gus emergency to which l am indebted
for your faithful service. Five years
ago the American people appeared per-
fectly convinced that the only way to
win true happiness and perpetuate
prosperity was to accuse, condemn
and jail for life-if execution were
not legal-the heads of the important
groups of industrial properties. Just
at that time, one of these men-one
of the most efficient but also, perhaps,
the one personally most obnoxious or
unpopular - committed one of his
gravest indiscretions. 1t concerned
the private use of deposits in national
banks; it was federal offense of the
most patent and provable kind. He
was indicted. Considering the temper
of any possible jury at that time, there
was absolutely no alternative but to
believe the man under indictment
must spend many succeeding years, if
not the rest of his life in the federal
penitentiary at Atlanta or Leaven-
worth.
"Now, the man was in complete con-

Before his gaining control, the prop

Avery was hunched in the seat
watching the blind man with grow

Santoine went on: "a young man

Cure of Insanity One of the Most Su-
preme Blessings Bestowed on
Human Race.

Insanity is no longer considered
hopeless in most cases. The hospitals
are curing great numbers of patients
through scientific treatment. Physical
infections have been found to be the
cause of many mental cases; and even
where the cause is purely mental,
specialists are making rapi' progress
in restoring the diseased minds.
The retaining of lost mind Is
perhaps the greatest blessing science
can bestow. An eye, lung, leg or
an arm may be taken away, yet there
always remains that handful of gray
substance which can comprehend and
direct the world. But when the mind
is gone, everything is gone, as far as
the unfortunate individual is con-
cerned.
The attitude toward lunatics of saw
age or semi-savage peoples is rather
odd, when one considers that an i'm
beetle is always more or less Of a

ANERICUS MERCHANTS

Americas merchants, especially

Campaign, did an excellent business

son." said Henry P. Everett, secre-
tary Of the Chamber of Commerce,
this morning.
Inquiries made by me and re-
ports to this office by merchants
here and throughout the county de-
velop that the volume of business
transacted during the holidays will
compare favorably with that done
during past years. Early in the
season trading was reported as rath-
er slack; but with the Inauguration
of adequate advertising efforts and
the drying of the roads, there was
noticeable Increase in the number
of visitors shopping here, with
stores in all parts of the retail dis
trict crowded until the last hour
before closing for the great holiday
we have just enjoyed.
"This condition is very gratifying
