In ' dfltermining whether Frank shill be hanget! or his wiutence commuted to Ide imprisonment, they wiU determine issues of rut consequence to the reputation amt. the chsi nricr of the State. . The question is not merely whether one man shall Uv? or die hut whet ho; the 8tate of Georgia shall be true or false lo the principies of ju. tuc and lnin:..m< v. The governor ia empowered to meet just such emergencies as this. Hie makers cf our law and constitution wisely foresaw that ocasioni might arise in which alt fx ilium y legal proc?s** wrtuld fail to establish tile innocence of a per son accused. They realin-d that times might come ?ben a case, although nettled so far as the courts were concerned, would Involve queu tions of grave doubt. Therefore, they anthorn cd the pardon hoard to recommend and the governor to grant a^ commutation of aenten.-e In such circumstances. Never was there a -ptainer demand for the righteous exercise of thia power than in ' the rending cass of Leo M. Frank. If ba be fet'ilty. he has not fairly been proved so. If he he innocent, his execution will amount mor ally to murder. lt ia not asked of th? hoard and the govert -r that tt ey declare bim inno cent, but only that they recognise, aa did ina trial judge, the serious doubt of his guilt and by commuting Uas death. sentence to bte rm priMmment leave a chane? for the future es tablishment ol justice and truth. Thia ought to be done, because it ts reason able and because it is right. It ia well, mor*' over, in auch an issue aa thia to take note of the country's sober opinion. Not only in Geor gie hut throughout the South and throughout the Union, thoughtful mien are appealing in dividually and collectively for a commutation - tion of Frank's sentence. No criminal cave ever stirred the nation's conscience so deeply. Localities and groups are often moved by gusts of sentiment to intercede tn a condemned pris oner's behalf, but that is not the source or character of this appeal. A few hundred or s few thousand impressionable persons here and there could he strayed by mere pity, but wi:.MI hundreds of thousands of people in every part of the United States reach the aamo conclusion and urge the same request, we may be sure that they act upon a solemn conviction that terrible injustice ls about to be done. The press of the nation is virtually s mut an urging that Frank's sentence be corni.ruted. Vari oe* legislatures, among them being t>?w ot Tennessee, Weat Virginia and Pennsylvania, have adopted resolutions to tie same effect. Governor* an.I other public caScinls ?lave add.-! their voice to nation-wide appeal. We know that the rank and file of the Atlanta ncr are convinced that Frank's trial waa aofair. ami we believe that the rank and file of the entire Oeorgia bar are of the same opinion. With the ut mo??, .conservatism, we can go further ?mt say that a great majority of the people of Georgia feel that Frank's guilt has not been proved beyond a reasonable doubt and that n great many of them consider him innocent. These convict ions ami expressions ara emi nently worthy of rocuiderstiari hy the pardon hoard and the governor. But above ?ll, thu inner merit* nf the ras? itself demand a coin i mit nt ino of the sentence. It has often been .nd Uwtf lt intra better for ninety-nine gail Iv men to escape than for one innocent man to be . But that ls not precisely th* issue OSTIA ONCE WAS BUSY CITY excavations of Roman Seaport Show Evidence of Itt Formar Commer cial Importance. "American In their straightness and regularity." is one description of the streets of Ostia, the old port of Rom' at the mouth of the Tiber, onco a but . I city, now dead and forgotten by all but the arcbeologlsts. The place Is, In Its way, as interest ing as Pompeii. The latter was an upper middle class watering place, while Herculaneum waj a Roman Newport. But OBtla was an ordinary Roman business seaport and city, and the discoveries just made there enable one to reconstruct the life of a busy Imperial center of 2,000 years ago. Tbe work that has been accom plished enablea the visitor to realise as never before the life lived by the energetic commercial people who in habited thc seaport of the Eternal City, and gives a clear idea of the kind of town it was. There are traces of Ave or six bathing establishments in Ostia. Tho chief baths, which are to the north of u-e street called the Val del Vlgill. with their large palaes tra or place for exercise, take up a whole block, and there are to bo found i splendid mosaics of the second cen tury, thst representing Neptune driv ing four water horsc8 being perhaps the finest of the kind known, while even the room which ls supposed to have been the porter's lodge has a good mosaic pavement in an Egyptian design. The shops, fountains and porticos bordering the streets of old Ostia which have been brought to light in the recent excavations complete the picture and make us realise that Ufo waa not so very different In the far away psst from what it ts today bi many an Italian town. KILLS BACILLUS OF TYPHOID Vinegar Has Been Definitely Ascer tained to Be a Destroyer of the Dangerous Germs. Doctors Loir and Legagncux of Paris have been testing vinegar as a de stroyer of the germs of typhoid fever. That they are killed by a mixture of wine and water in equal parts has long been known. These 'investigators prove now that 20 grams of vinegar to a liter of water kill tho typholC bacil lus 1 an hour and five minutes. "From this," writes the Parts corre spondent of tbe Lancet, "a practical In fer .vco may be drawn concerning sal ads. Aftev washing the salad as usu al, detaching each leaf, lt should be put Into water acidulated with ten grams of vinegar to the liter and re main immersed in this liquid for about an hour and a quarter. All vegetables ordinarily eaten uncooked msy be sub jected without any inconvenience to the same process." A liter is equivalent to about a quart, and ten grams are equivalent to about a thlrj of an ounce. So. If let tuce or other greens for salad be pieced in vster to which about one third of SP. ounce of vinegar has been sdded and.be left for an hour and a quarter, all danger of typhoid fever w.ll be removed.

Collapsible Refrigerator. One of the interesting features Itt a new refrigerator ls thst lt can easily be taken apart for transportation or tor cleaning, and then put together In a fea' minutes without the use of tools of sny kind. The base, aide front, bask, and top form separate sections. These are connected by locking bars, having slots in the ends, which flt over pins projected from the perts to be connected and are so ar ranged that when the refrigerator ls set vp. these parts are held rigidly together. Another festure of this refrigerator is that of circulating the water formed by the melting ice through pipes under the shelves. Popular Mechanics Magasine. Primitive "Tlmepfeess."
