' Twelve-year-old Peter Camicia told Judge Thomas F. Graham all about It in superior court the othor day when Marv fnmft fnpwnrfl n th vnnnsrpRt gumumu ill mv iiisiuiy ui oaUj riuu Cisco to give an accounting of her year's stewardship of a little brood of five Camicias. . .... "I'll tell the world Mary's a good mother," Peter told the judge. "She s best after my regular mother." And from little Alma, six, to John seventeen, . came emphatic corrobora tion. Mary Camlcia's father died in 1914; her mother four years later, leaving an investment which insured an Income of $51 a month. Mary volunteered to take charge of the family. The court, a hit doubtful because of her own youth, decided to give her a trial since no older person was interested. Found True "Mother" . That Mary has not overrated her Smothering" ability was demonstrated 'to the satisfaction- ot all who heard the latest report. The four boys, rang ing in ages from 17 to 9, are at work heading for grown up entry into the vocations she has chosen for them. I ; She hopes eventually to gradate a carpenter, a machinist, a lawyer and a jeweler from her school of hard work.' T''o midget of the family, Alnui, aged six, will decide before long whether She will become a teacher or a nurse. Just now she is giving her most ser ious efforts to the family ironing. "It Isn't So Hard" "It isn't so hard when all are willing to help about Uvo house," explained j ATLANTA, Ga.; Aug. The senate committee on wild lands of the Geor- gia legislature has before it a bill in- traduced by Senator Dennis Fleming I of Dougherty county to make it j necessary for husbands in this state to obtain permission of their wives before going fishing. j Senator Fleming, a fisherman him SsDlf and a married manwas merely I exercising his keen. Irish humor when the introduced the. measure, and "had j no idea of hearing an echo expressed through the curiosity ot so famous a person as Hudson Maxim, tho in ventor and .author.. .: ; In a letter to S. G. MsLendon, sec- 1 rotary of state, Mr. Maxim wrote: "I see by tho New York Tribune that a I bill has been introduced in the sen ate of the state of Georgia by Sena tor Dennis Fleming which contains sonic provisions bo drastic that it has I occurred to me that tho wholo thing i must be a joke." Quoting provisions of the bill as l.descrlbcd in the Tribune story, that f'any and all married mon who shall , go fishing without the consent of 1 their wives shall be guilty of a felony, and their sentence shall not bo less than five or more than twenty years at hard labor," the Inventor wrote: I shall deem the courtesy very much if you will let nic know whether or not such legislation Is being pro posed in the State of Georgia. As I am. writing a book on lawless legis lation .In the United States, I am gathering any striking bits of legisla tion which may be useful for my work." AIRY BUILDINGS MOTHER KILLS TWO L BELLMORE.

What is said to be the most up-to-date and complete ventilat ing system in the world is that In stalled In the council chamber ot the London county council's- ?aO,000,00 j palace at Westminster, recently op ened by the king. Its unique feature is that each member is able to control his own im mediate atmosphere. ..He has a "con trol" button below his desk, so that If he is feeling cold he can make the airj that is automatically fed to him a little warmer or vice versa without up setting his neighbor. - Apart from individual regulation, 40 tons of air are automatically admitted and extracted from the council cham ber every hour. A maze of pipes beneath the floor of the chamber connects the air inlets and outlets with a. room full ot won derful machinery in the sub-basement, Including large but noiseless fans, water sprays, thermometers, dynamos, polished gauges,- and a network of brass control pipes. Through the agency of this machin ery the climatic conditions of any country in the world can be introduced into the council chamber and the large committee-room. , A remarkable feature of the ventilat ing apparatus is that the effect of a sudden change in the outside tempera ture is immediately and automatically conveyed to the sensitive Instruments in the sub-basement, so that they promptly adjust their efforts toward maintaining an even temperature in side. A fall of rain on the room, or a spell of sunshine, are felt by the Instru ments, and they act accordingly. More remarkable still is the fact that a single member coming into the council chamber when overheated automatically effects the entrance of an additional proportion of cool air to balance the minute change. - Alaska that occupied several months.

Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. Ho finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no ono can bo free from rheumatism until the accu mulated impurities, commonly called uric acid deposits, were dissolved in tho joints and muscles .and, expelled from tho body. '. With this idea in mind he consult ed physicians, made" experiments and finally compounded a" prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheuma tism from his system. Ho freely gave his discovery which ho called Allonrhu, to others who took it, with what might bo called marvelous success. After years of urging ho decided to let sufferers everywhere know about his discovery through tho newspapers. Ho has, therefore, instructed druggists every where to dispense Allonrhu with tho understanding that if tho first pint bottlo does not show the wny to com plete recovery ho will gladly return your money without comment. - Adv. 2 HILL E A Select "Non-Sectnrinii Hoarding School Boys between fl nnJ SO years Sociul Advances, Homelike Atmosphere , Small Classen and Men Teachers Detailed U.
