DeKalb County Fair Closes
Its Success fid Exhibition;
Prize Winners Announced
Thousands Crowd Grounds on
Last Day, When Congress
man Howard Spoke—Wis
dom of Protracted Exhibition
Is Demonstrated
Light* at the DeKalb county fair
were extinguished Saturday night after
the moat successful of exhibitions. The
five days' duration was an experiment
in protracted fairs which has convinced
the association that an exposition of
the products of DeKalb need not be
confined to one day as heretofore.
Thousands of persons on the last day.
which was dedicated to the reception
of homecomers, crowded the grounds,
where they heard Congressman Wil
liam Schley Howard's speech concern
ing the war. visited the splendid dis
plays of live stock, poultry and agri
cultural products and viewed the other
manifestations of progress in the good
eounty of DeKalb.
The fair ended at its climax. Crowds
.of merrymakers from Decatur. Kirk
* wood. Atlanta. Stone Mountain and
other centers of the county made the
••pike" to hum on the last night of its
being. The lights flashea and the bar
ker ballyhooed and the spirit of the
carnival persisted to the death.
But of course that was not the fair.
The fair itself was the thing that
showed DeKalb county's ability to
produce the sustenance of both war and
peace. Those Du roc-Jersey hogs that
make bacon at 3 cents a slice; those
Holstein cows whose dally yield is
measured in gallons; those yellow
pumpkins and potatoes that make pies a
delight; those jellies and jam and pre
serves; that delicious cake; breads that
quicken the appetite; candy for the
sweetest tooth and pickles to draw the
mouth of the thinnest school girl—all
these were displayed as grown-in-De-
Kalb product*.
And for these and other prodtActs
handsome prises have been awarded by
a generous fair association. Here are

CONSPIRACY TO BOOST
MILK PRICE CHARGED
Suggested That Friend of
Dairymen Be Put on Hoover
Commission
CHICAGO, Oct. 13.—Evidence to prove
a nation-wide plot by milk producers
to raise the price of that cornmodltj' was
presented to federal authorities here to
day by Attorney General Brundage, of
Illinois.
Ramifications of the alleged conspira
cy as indicated in Mr. Brundage's evi
dence Included the raising of a fund of
$5,000 to place a man friendly to the
Dairymen’s International league on the
Hoover commission formed to fix a
just price for milk. This was said to
have been done in Utica. N Y., last
July. The evidence also showed an ef
fort on the part of the dairymen to
see President Wilson'on the price fix
ing issue and to boycott dealers in
Pittsburgh and elsewhere who refused
to enter the price boosting agreement.
The effort to see President Wilson fail
ed .
E. D. Perrigo, assistant to Robert
Childs, special United States attorney
general, made the demand for the evi
dence upon Mr. Brundage after learning
that the documents in the latter’s pos
session were of a more conclusive nature
than any collected by State’s Attorney
Hoyne and other officials who are seek
ing indictments against local milk pro
ducers.
Mr. Perrigo asked for the letter
which told of the 35,000 appropriation.
It was said to have been written by
President ,B. C. Cooper, of the Dairy
men's International league, to W. J.
Kittle, secretary of the Milk Producers'
association. Chicago district, and related
to the placing of a “friend’’ on the
Hoover committee. Air. Kittle is said to
have replied that he deemed such action
indiscreet and evidently no further move
in that direction was taken.

Doctor S<y« Ordinary Nuxated Iron Will
Make Nervous Rundown People 100
Per Cent Stronger in Two Weeks’
Time in Many Cases.
NEW YORK. N. Y.—“ One glance is enough
to tell which people have iron in their blood,”
said Ur. E. Sauer, a Boston physician, who has
studied widely both in this country and in
Great European medical institutions, in a re
cent discourse. They are the ones that do and
i are. The others are tn the weakling class.
Slceples nights spent worrying over supposed
ailments, constant dosing with hnblt-forming
drags and narcotics for nervous weakness, stom
ach. liver or kidney disease and useless attempts
to brace up with strong coffee or other stimu
lants are what keep them suffering and vainly
longing to be strong. Their real trouble Is lack
of Iron In the blood. Without Iron the blood
!:*» no power to change food Into living tisane
and. therefore, nothing you eat dors you any
good: you don't get the strength out of it. The
moment Iron is supplied the multitude of dan
gerous symptoms disappear. I have seen dozens
of nervous, rundown people who were ailing all
the time, double and even triple their strength
and endurance and entirely get rid of every
’gn of dyspepsia, liver and other trouble In
from ten to fourteen days' time elmply by tak
ing Iron In the proper form. And this, after

they had in some cases been doctoring for
months without any benefit.
If you are not strong or well you owe it to
yourself to make the following test: See how
long you can work or bow far you can walk
without becoming tired. Next take two five
i grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron three
times per day after meals for two weeks. Then
i test your strength again and see for yourself
I how much you have gained. There is nothing
- like good old. iron to put color In your cheeks
I and sound, healthy flesh on your bonea. But
you must take Iron In a form that can be easily
absorbed and assimilated like nuxated iron if
you want it to do you any good, otherwise it
may prove worse than useless.
1 NOTE—Nuxated Iron recommended above by
Dr. E. Sauer, is one of the newer organic iron
• ctmpounda. Unlike the older inorganic Iron
products, it is easily assimilated, does not in
jure the teeth, make them black, nor upset the
stomach; on the contrary, it is a most potent
remedy, in nearly all forms of indigestion, as
- well as for nervous, run-down conditions. The
Manufacturers have such great confidence in
Nuxated Iron that they offer to forfeit >IOO.OO
to any charitable institution if they cannot take
i any man or woman tinder no who lacks iron and
increase their strength 100 per cent or over in
four weeks time provided they have no serious
organic trouble. They also offer to refund your
r money if it does not at least double your
strength and endurance in ten days' time. It
is dispensed In this city by all good druggists.

Travels 2,500 Miles to Gain (
Divorce Case That Proved a
| Sensation in Fulton County i
j Superior Court
—•—■— ■■ 11
Making a 2,500 mile journey from her ;
| home in Los Angeles. Cal., to the capital
I city of Georgia to resume her legal bat-
J tie for vindication in the courts and fori;
1 the custody of her two little daughters.;
Mrs. Bertha M. Coleman will, on Mon- i
day morning, make another efforts to
I alter the status of a case which has at
. tracted attention not only in Atlanta.,
’ hut from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
More than a year ago Mrs. Coleman
made her last appearance in the Ful
ton county courts, her husband, Henry
L. Coleman, being awarded a divorce and
the custody of their two daughters.
Helen Lucile. aged nine and Esther
Yvonne, seven years old.
Probably no more sensational divorce
action was ever tried in the Atlanta!
courts, charges and counter charges I
being hurled thick and fast by both |
parties. The husband was finally sue-!
cessful in his effort to secure a decree’
and Mrs. Coleman returned to her Call-'
fornia home dismayed but not discour- j
aged.
Charges of collusion and manufact-1
ured evidence have been made from time!
to time by Mrs. Coleman since the trial l
of the divorce suit and on Monday morn- t
ing she plans to go before Judge J. T.
Pendleton in the Fulton superior court,
,to open a new action seeking to set
i aside the divorce awarded to her hus
! band.
The Colemans, originally from Calt
: fornia. first came into prominence in At
lanta when, after a coast-to-coast search
the two little girls, with their father,
were discovered here by agents of Mrs
Coleman, who had spared neither money |
nor pains to locate her missing chil
dren.
Then began a fight for the custody of
the girls, followed by the divorce suit,
; at the close of which Mrs. Coleman
found herself bereft of her children ana
separated from her husband by a legal!
i abyss.
Encouraged by recent developments j
and determined to secure vindication In;
. the eyes of the public, Mrs. Coleman la
preparing to enter this new phase of
her case with renewed energy and the j
; unfolding of the latest evidence will be,
followed with much itnerest in Atlanta '
I and in sunny California.
