Annie Lou Smith, 'the nine-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mr*. Lee Smith, of lit Creecent-are.. who wa» run oyer by an automobll* Wednesday afternoon, died an hour later at St. Joaeph*'In firmary. The accident occurred at Peachtree and Tenth-st*. a* the little girl was coming home from the Tenth-at. achonl. Her father la a member of the firm of Richards & Smith, meat dealer*,,and, £ .hearing the crlea, he ruahed from ilia .ticked the child »ho R heumatism I* a blood disease. .It can be cured only by ridding the blood of extraneous matter. Hood's Sarsaparilla cures It, aa It doe* other blood dlseaae*. < "The necessity for a good blood purifier," writes W. G. Skin ner, Wakefleld, Maas., was flrat Im pressed on me when I'took Hood'a Sar saparilla for a severe attack of rheuma tism. A* soon as I Began to take this medicine, I felt better and In a abort time I waa entirely cured, and have been In good condition ever since." Set It today. In usual liquid form or tablet! called Sarsatabs. Dr. Lyon’s PERFECT Tooth Powder is used by people of refinement in every part of the world where the use of the tooth brush is known ‘ had seen the accident recovered from ^ the shock enough to aid her. The car was owned and driven by J H. Whitten. Mr. Whitten waa coming up the hill toward town at the time, ' and. according In witnesses, was run ning slowly when the child darted In front of his machine. He cut his front wheels around, almost going Into the sidewalk. The rear wheels skidded over the smooth pavement and turned the car so that right rear wheel knocked - the little girl down and passed over her “body. According to all who aaw It, the ac cident was unavoidable. Mr. Smith puts the blame chiefly on the city, for . not having a traffic officer on duty, at j that corner. He said that nearly 300 small children pass that comer twice each day and that an officer should be .. placed there to give them warning and see them safely across, especially-' In ’ tht afternoon when they hurry'from school In groups of three and tout.',; ' After taking the child and her par ents to the hospital, Mr. Whitten re- : .turned and gave himself up. He was afterward released under a 11,000 bond pending an Investigation.

For the protection of small borrow er* from the grip of loan sharke, busi ness men In Baltimore have organised an aiioclatlon that I* exactly like the Atlanta Loan and Saving Company. It I* known a* the Mutual Security Loan Association of Baltimore. The organisation of this company Is the result of a general need for the relief of small borrower# who have heretofore been confronted with no ref- ugv but the danger of money lenders. The Baltimore News quotes at length from a report by President Woodr-Whlte of the Atlanta company to show the effectiveness of the At lanta Loan and Saving Company and the need of a similar Institution In Bal. tlmore. Not only does this report show," comments The News, "that the Atlanta company has brought about what will amount to an annual saving of 310,000 to former loan shark victims of that city, but that the business done has yielded more than six per cent on a capital Investment of 300,000, even when tho fact Is taken Into considera tion that but a fourth of this capital was paid In when thd company started business. ."The effect of the Atlanta comp on the loon business has been phll throplo to the extent that It has of fered a refuge for the poorer elaseeg of Atlanta from loan sharks who have defied every effort to regulate tho chat tel business thru legislation. ., "Tho Atlanta company has been do Ing business sine* June 19. 1911. In little more than four months, according to President Woods White, 363,000 has bean placed In 436 small loans among oil classes of borrowers, with tho result that the company has made net earn ings In four months of 34,226.33 on a capital of 360,000. "The organization of tho company was t ho culmination cf years cf fruit- leas struggle ngalnst the ruinous rates ami cruel method* of the loan shnrks of Atlanta. Successive efforts had been made to correct the evil thru legislation. Laws passed to allow the small money lender generous terms, but restrict him to square dealing, were ignored or de feated by new methods of extortion, such as those whlrh have defeated sim ilar law# passed In Maryland. Subse quent laws were passed making usury a crime, but these, too, were defied by the Atlanta 'sharks.' Grand Jury after grand Jury exposed startling facts con cerning the methods of the money lend ers, and disclosed evidence* of •perni cious collusion between 'loan sharks' and Justices of the peace. Facts were published that charged up against these lenders diabolical practices for extort ing from tholr helpless victim* the money that should have gone for food and clothing. Just as la now the case In Baltimore, legislation and publicity failed to rid Atlanta of th« evil. -Under these conditions the Atlanta company was chartered, stock sub scribed and buetness begun last June. That the company has reached the class Of borrowers moat likely to fall victim to loan sharks Is shown In tho report of President White.” DR. J. F. HARRIS ELECTED MAYOR OF J5ALT0N, GA.
