The editor has received me fol lowing letter, and attached letter of explanation, the contents of which will explain themselves: “Milledgeville, Ga., Aug. 28, 1913.

The silhouette gown is pronounced in correct circles as ‘the silliestyet.” Dear Sir: Please announce in your paper that there are no more vacancies for students at the Georgia Normal ic Industrial College at Milledge ville, Ga. The doors of the college are closed to future applicants this fall because of lack of more room. I enclose circular letter which ex plains itself. The college has already had to re fuse hundreds of applications in all parts of the state, and this public announcement is made to save un necessary correspondence and disap pointment. The college will open Sept. 8th. Thanking you for giving thin mat ter publicity in your county, I am, Very truly yours, *‘‘M. M.

Looking for faults isn’t as fruitless job as that oft-quoted work in the hay-stack. The recall may be administered to a Georgia judicial light within the next six months. A monument to Mary I’hagan is about the siliest suggestion yet, thinks the Rome Tribune-Herald. “Dear Miss : It is with great regret that noti fication is herewith sent you that all the vacancies in the Georgia Normal and Industrial College have been fiUed. There has not been room for even one-half of the new students who applied for admission to the col lege this year. The state has not erected buildings fast enough to keep up with the recejit growth of the college and hundreds of satis factory applications cannot be ac cepted because of a lack of room. It is then with reluctance that the statement Is made that you are not given a place at the college at this time. In giving out the places at the college, certain regulations have been followed in accordance with the custom that has prevailed for several years and as indicated on pages 9 and 10 of the catalogue: 1. Every county is given its full share of places, provided applica tion is made in due time. Any coun ty failing to make application in due time forfeits its place and some other county secures it, as it is necessary to give reply to the hundreds of ap plicants waiting for answers. Some npj^ications are not accepted because they come from counties already ful- | ly represented. i 2.

FAIR ACREAGE YIELDS MUST BE MEASURED Fair contestants are urged by the managers, to let their intentions be known as far as acreage yields are concerned in order that they can be properly measured. Mr. J. Willis Moore has consented to see to this feature of the work and In order to get it all done, he must be noti fied before the last minute, in order to take all of the measures In the county. Those who intend to enter in the acreage yield contests, should let him measure their stuff at once.

Draper, N C.—Mrs. Helen Dalton, ol this place, says; “I suffered for years, with pains in my left side, and would “ ther' ‘ often almost smother to death. Medicines patched me up for awhile but then I would act worse again. Final ly, my husband decided he wanted me to try Cardui, the weman’s tonic, so he bought me a bottle and I began using it. It did me more good than all the medi cines I had taken. I have Induced many of my friends to try Cardui, and they all say_they have been benefited by its use. There never has been, and never will be, a medicine lo compare with Cardui. 1 believe it is a good medicine for all womanly trou bles.’’ For over 50 years, Cardui has been re lieving woman’s sufferings and building weak women up to health and strength. If you are a woman, give It a fair trial. It should surely help you, as it has a million others. Oet a bottle of Cardui to-day. Writttt! Gbattanoofm Madldiw Co.
