MUCH LIKE WESTERN WTY j
Tiflis, Capital of New Georgian Re- !
public, by No Means Typical
of the East.
Mr. Melville Chater, recording Ira- I
pressions in the National Geographic i
Magazine, admits that he was sur- i
prised when he arrived in Tiflis, cap- i
ital of the new Georgian republic. He j
had expected a city more suggestive
of the East, as the Western mind pictures
it; but the Golovinsky prospekt,
the main thoroughfare through the
heart of the city, stretched before him,
44as handsome a bit of modern metropolitanism
as can be found anywhere,"

what used to be the viceregal palace
but which now flies the standard of
the new nation, suggested at once the
French adjective "chic." More than
that, this new capital was brilliant
with uniforms, Russian, Georgian, Armenian.
British, and most picturesque
of all, the Caucasian costume, with its
broad-shouldered, wash-waisted coat,
high, heelless boots, and astrakhan
cap. One marveled at the load of 1
weapons that completed it; a sword
rattling and clanking with the wearer's
martial stride, a brace of pistols,
a pair of daggers, and a collection of
what looked like enormous fountain
pens hung across the Caucasian
bosom, but which turned out to be
hollow tubes intended to be loaded
with powder and shot. One must add
stiff mustaches and a close-shaven
skull to picture this Georgian in all
his glory on the Golovinsky prospekt

civilians is scarce and expensive in
Tiflis. but the cast-off uniforms of
military officers are for sale, and many
a citizen in need of a new suit had
/
bought himself an old uniform.

ARE RETURNING TO FARMS
Not Many of Uncle Sam's Fighters
Have Succumbed to the Lure
of the City.
Of America's mighty war forces of
more than 4.500,000 men, 1.200,000, It
is estimated, came from farms. Records
in the bureau of war-risk insurance
in Washington indicate that these
farm-bred or farm-raised boys carried '
government life insurance amounting
to over $10,000,000,000.
During the earlier demobilization it
was so difficult to keep track of the
discharged service men that it seemed
as though a very large proportion of
them dW not return to their former
addresses or homes. So many of the
service men who had come from the
farms seemed to be listening to the
call of the city that it was feared more
than one-half of them were not going
back to the farms. Later the tide of
migration set in toward the country,

and now it is oenevea mat me lusa. ju
" man power to the farms, as the result
of former sen-ice men settling: elsewhere,
may not be more than 500,000.
Dead Towns Awaken.
Dead towns of the West are coming
to life as a result of the silver boom.
There were towns in Colorado and Nevada
and Arizona, which, under the influence
of silver in those days after
the Civil war, burst into wild, rich life
that has no parallel in history.
Clouds of dust are rising along the
trails that lead across sagebrush
plains. The mining engineer, presentday
successor of the prospector and
his burro, is astir in the silver coun.
try.
They are going back to the old
shafts that yielded wealth when silver
was above a dollar. With the advance
In mining processes in the last four
decades the chances of profits are
many times multiplied.
Keeps Windows Free From Frost.
In these days, when Jack Frost is i
busy drawing pictures on the windows,
many beautiful works appear over
night, but when he completely covers ;
the v\ass he is not so welcome. The
? 0 , __ - ? , j
Russians have a very effective way of
preventing the obscuring of the windows
by frost. In Russia the walls of
the buildings are very thick, and J
double windows are fitted to the
houses, set about 13 inches apart The
window sill between the outer and inner
windows is decorated with bright
green moss, and hidden there is a dish
filled with calcium chloride, which absorbs
all the moistore and thus effectually
prevents the formation of ice
during the long, cold winter.
Farming Fish.
The International Association of
Game, Fish and Conservationist Commissioners,
at their recent convention "
in Louisville, pledged themselves to <
use every influence possible toward 1
stimulation of a nation-wide move- *
ment looking to the construction of
fish ponds upon farms in which desir- .
able species of game and food fishes, l
especially the basses and the sun- .
fishes, can be propagated for recrea- i
tlon and for food, at a comparatively 1
small expense when contrasted with J
the vast benefits which wift result 4
therefrom.

Fifty-nine degrees below zero was
registered in some parts of the Adirondacks
last winter around the first of
the year, according to weather bureau
statistics. Better (or worse) than that
was done by .Tack Frost in Sweden,
where the temperature registered 70.6
below zero. And in some parts of
Alaska thermometers are absolutely
useless, t> best of them freezing up
and refusing to tell how cold it is. In
the dead of winter, in the interior of
Alaska, pure alcohol freezes into solid
bloeks of ice, as does karosena.?Ete |

A FAMILY
MEDICINE
In Her Medlar's Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black*
Draught Relief From Headache,
Malaria, Chilis, Etc.
Ringgold, Gay? Mrs. Chas. Gaston,
of this place, writes: "I am a user
of Thedford's Black-Draught; In fact,
It was one of our family medicines.
Also In my mother's home, when I
was a chili When any of us children
complained of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave us
a dose of Black-Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chills, or troubles of this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg--1

we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without it,
for it certainly has saved us lots of
doctor bills. Just a dose of BlackDraught
when not so well saves a
lot of days In bed."
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
in use for many years in the treatrant
of stomach, liver and 'oewel
troubles, and the popularity which it
low enjoys is proof of its merit
If your liver is not doing its duty,
you will suffer .from such disagreeable
symptoms as headache^ biliousness,
constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
found a valuable remedy for these
troubles. It is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels of
impurities. Try it. Insist on Thedr
ford's, the original and genuine. E 79
