Mrs. Ada Blackmar, of Alox- ander ,Clt:y, Ala., writes: "From; time .to time, I would have spells of nausea . , . . , which would put mo to bod. I would turn a dull, yellow color and, for days at a time, would have no appetite. Everything I ato sickened me. "My mothor had been a user of Black-Draught for years, so while I was at home, visit ing, she asked me why I did not try Black-Draught for my troubles. "I began taking a email dose, three times a day, be fore meal3. I kept, this up for several weeks, and it was just a little while before I began to notice an improve ment in my condition.

Dalilonega telephone rates are made low with tho understanding shat the phones in residences are for the use only of the people liv ing therein, and others using them are simply deadbeating the com pany for service which belongs to those who pay. It is just as dis honest, as covering childun from tho railroad conductor to save your faro. If you have to save the price of a telephone he honest enough to carry your messages ro mail them at 1 eemt each. Howev er you will have to pay for (the stamp. If you are a pauper and will show that you need a phone in your business we will contrib ute one to save our regular sub subscribers being bothered. Bor rowing phone service is some what similar to a borrowed news paper. Both after being loaned may need laundrying. But it can’t he done. Pay for your talk or walk. Daiiuonoa Telui'honk Company. DAI 1 LON EGA, GA., FRIDAY mARCH 2. 1928. TURN TO BUDDHISM TO QUIET UNREST In London It is said that Buddldst missionaries have made more than ;j(X) converts In England in less than n year, not among orientals who have drifted Into the world’s most famous port, but among Englishmen and Eng lish women. Tills ought not to enuse much astonishment. Some people are al ways In a state of unrest and dis content with respect to religious mat ters. They long for pence of mind and spirit which they have not .found and (hey are ready to try something they have not tested. Buddhism has an especial appeal to such persons now, In the foremost countries of tho western world, be cause It exalts quiet faith in the ul- timnte destiny of man and teaches striving toward repose, serenity of thought and feeling. Some Individ uals who find themselves more or,less out of tune with their limes and their environment imagine that such .faith As an endless ultimate calm, and such striving toward it Is the one tiling ,the.v .yearn for and most need.—Cleve land Plain Dealer. BAD WEATHER DUE TO LACK OF TREES Trees are lightning rods, and Hie in creasingly bad weather is due (o the .destruction of forests, says Edouard Brauly, France’s grand old man of wireless. ‘‘If there are no longer seasons,’’ he says, ‘‘deforestation is the principal, if indeed, also, not the sole cause. ‘‘Trees on the heights, with their pou7 ffi 4 tips toward heaven and their roots deep ,a Hie damp ground, are nothing less tlum ninny lightning rods, constantly discii,k’’5’ D S bito Hie earth the atmospheric electrici'!. v 1,n d (hereby preventing its accumulation in the clouds, an accumulation that would cause terrible storms. In wood ed districts there was calm, but now that the woods are being cut down ; there are constant hard storms.” The need for protecting trees Is well recognized and the French government proposes to spend some money in Hint direction, but meantime owners of for ests say heavy tnxes oblige them to cut wood to get Income. Singer's Reply Stories about John McCormack con tinue to drift in. It seems that when the tenor returned from Europe last time, reporters met him at the pier and told him that Deems Taylor was writing another “command opera” for the Metropolitan. ‘‘Is that so?” said McCormack, much Interested. ‘‘And wlmt will tin's one be about?’ “A well known commercial -subject,” returned one of the reporters. “Ah,” said McCormack, smiling. “Otto Kalin?”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Bananas Grown in North A full bunch of bananas has been grown successfully at a Salem (N. J.) flower shop. The tree from which the fruit was gathered stands more than ten feet in height and has been maturing in a greenhouse for sev eral months. Banana plants are also curiosities in a few private gardens in Salem, but because of the short sea son cold weather always nips the fruit before It can ripen out of doors. Bankruptcies "One of the heaviest costs of busi ness In the United States Is the inor dinate number of commercial fail ures,” writes Jesse Rninsford In Har per's Magazine. "In 1900 our bank ruptcies totaled about 0,000, about the same number that occurred in Eng land and France. During, the past year we bad more than 20,000 bank ruptcies, more than twice .as many as England and Fiance combined.” To Have Unknown Soldier South Africa is to have its own unknown soldier, who will he buried under a special shrine at Pretoria. It was arranged to disinter a South Af rican soldier wlw Terbi in France and bring the body 'home. Residents of the Union, it was pointed out, have jio opportunity to honor the British unknown soldier in Westminster abbey. The Higker Learning Professor—Don’t you know any- tiling about literature? Student—Sure; I’ve written to all the toothpaste companies for it.—Life. The Sentence Completed She—open your mouth and shut your eyes and— He—And Hint’s (lie way a woman drives a car. New Type of Camera A new type of ennern with plates sensitive lo light rays invisible to Hie human eye, can lake pictures through Die thickest cloud of fog. TERSE TRUTHS Women are often greatest In small things, The quicker the lunch the slower the digestion. When a man’s down ho thinks it’s all up with him. A thoughtless .nan loses a lot of lime when he hurries. A lean woman and a fat one nearly always envy each oilier. You can thank your stars for one or two of your prejudices. A slender income Is said to be an excellent remedy for obesity. Love is n fire which the burnt child never dreads.—La Rochefoucauld. Rood nature is u glowworm that sheds light In the darkest places. (let a man to talking about his job and lie's interested, if you are not. Most of the horrors of Hades were brought there by those who inhabit it. Health is,the soul Hint animates all Hie enjoyment of life.—Sir W. Tem ple. That to live by one man’s will be came tiie cause of nil men’s misery.— Hooker. Hod hath put something noble and good into every heart which Ills hand created.—Mark Twain. If you know some one who Is dis tant, you might not think so if you wore somebody else. BRIEF HUMOR A Magazine Maze “What’s the matter now, Charlie?” “Lost my love story, detouring from back page ^o back page.” .Good Fellow “Docs Herbert spend his money ; light?” “Yes; and left, too.”—Life. Homebody “Is Ids wife a gadabout?” “No, she visits by telephone.”— ( Louisville.Courier-Journal. ’ No Present j Blink—What did you get on your | birthday? Blank—A day older.—Judge. No Straight Path ' Gerald—I move In good circles. Geraldine—I’ve heard you called a ; rounder. Airplane Helps Ranch Manager Direct Work Tiie first plantation to be "bossed” from Hie air, says the New Orleans Times-Pienyi no, Is n G.noo-acre ranch in Tulare county of southern Cali fornia. By means of an airplane tiie entire place is kept mapped by aerial photography, so that progress and needs in Hie various fields and sec tions may be handled from tiie main office without the need of constant vis its, inspections and reports. Tiie r,'"" 1 ' keeps 500 men employed and It is or the T'nosl importance that their labor be directed wilh the minimum of friction and duplication. The pictures, taken from as high ns 0,000 feet, give comprehensive views of crop progress and without moving from his seat Iti Hie ranch house, bit by gin fid rig over the aerial map, the manager can make daily assignment of his men to the various parts of t lie work. Not So Good, Thanhs Diner—ljp>v’s the corn today, wait er? Walter.—Pimply killing me, sir. —Kansas City Times. Oat of the Night Air “How do you keep your children In at night?” *‘I have an inclosed car.”—Life. Fitied “Has Jacobs any talent for sign painting? ’’ ‘Yes, lie’s a poor speller.” “In a recent number, before I left Lynn Haven, Fla., I became interest- ested In your article on ‘Musical Earthworms,’ and noted that, some sci entists were giving their attention to a solution of the mystery. It reminds me of a peculiar fact that fs often no ticed in Florida—in the St. Andrews bay district, at least. When fisher men want ilshworms for bait they go out and fiddle for (hem. It is accom plished In tills way: A thin board is ■driven wp.ll into.the ground to leave a foot or eighteen inches above the ground. Another board or stick is drawn back and forth across the up right board, producing a shuddering or vibration of tiie upright board. After a few seconds of this, large worms begin to crawl out of Hie earth for . £wcnty-tlvc or , thirty , feet around the center upright, grid the. fisherman lias oply , to pick them up! I have seen eighty to one hundred picked up from a single effort. My husband lias tried tho same method in North Caro lina and in Michigan, but without suc cess, while I have seen him succeed every lime he lias tried In Lynn Haven.”—Mrs. W. B. Harrell, in a let ter to tho Literary Digest. Fitting! Smith—“Why do you call that um brella ‘Adam’?” Jones—"Because the darned thing is minus a rib!” His Position Gnp Johnson was trying to back away from tiie crossroads store with ninny yanks at Hie reins and numer ous yells and oaths. His daughter sprang from tiie wagon and began benting tiie mules over the head with a club. “Why don’t you buy an' nutorao bile?” asked a salesman who had ar rived during the operation. "It would save you a lot of trouble.” “I'm usen to the—p’tu !—trouble.” was the reply. “I know how to handle these devilish mules and I wouldn’t know Imw to manage a car.” “Well, It might save the'young lady a lot of unnecessary exercise." “Aw, she’s going to get married pretty soon, and needs the experience In managing n husband. Hud-up, there, mules!"—Kansas City Star. Gasoline Substitute An alcohol (mixture said to be capable of replacing gasoline in cm. gines of automobiles, and possibly of airplanes, lias been developed by the Warsaw Polytechnic institute and Is attracting much attention In Poland It Is said (hat required adjustments In Hie engine for use <ef the mixture one slight, and in many ways the new liquid Is superior to gasoline. No alcohol lit for beverage purposes can lie separated from tiie mixture, even l).v fractional distillation. As the price of each of the Ingredients, except other and benzol, Is less than that ot gasoline, the mixture could he made cheaper than gasoline, it Is claimed by tiie Institute.

Almost Canned “Why do you dook so gloomy-?” “I wrote an -article on fresh milk and the chief condensed if." No Longer Necessary to Breathe Stale Air It Is becoming every year a simpler matter to wash and cool the air with in banks, theaters and other build ings, Including homes. There are now manufactured air conditioning units that can be In stalled almost anywhere and connect ed up to nD electric light circuit. A single unit capable of welling and cooling 30,000 cubic feet of air an hour measures three feet square ou the ground and five feet high. A motor-di iven fnn inside draws . ir through a series of brick baffles over which water runs. Then the cooled itiTu 7'“'bed air Is driven by tiie fan up through pipes to toe iCCS* A m ' 3 ‘ tor such as is used pn washing ma chines does Hie work. Mrs. W. U Cox, 120 Church Street, Chester*, S. C., says: “I suffered awfully . *. . I would have a terrible pain, at times; I could hardly stand It. I slept badly; my rest was dis turbed and I seemed to get little benefit from It. “I read about Cardul lu tho papers and thought It .might be a good thing to try, so 1 began taking it. I was so pleased with the way I improved that I kept on taking It until I felt quite well. Cardul helped me so much and so many people have remarked a- bout my improvement.” Cardul has been used and recommended by thou- ands of other women, for over 45 years. Try it.

Resourceful Pussy A cat which is at home in the res idence of Louis Marshall, Manhattan, saved itself from starvation by sound ing a burglar alarm in a neighbor’s house where it had gone visiting. Operatives answering the alarm with drawn revolvers found tiie house boarded up, the family being out of town. They made nn entrance, saw no burglars, but did hear a plaintive feeble meowing that led them to tiie culprit. As soon as the outer door was opened, the cut made a hurried dash to Hie Marshall house for some thing to cat. Penned by Dickens The original manuscript of Dickens’ story, “The Mudfrog Papers," lias been bought in London by Charles Sossler, of Philadelphia. The manu script had been in the possession of the family of the publisher .since the first issue of the work 1)0 years ago. It consists of 04 fu.U-quaritQ pages. Buried Treasure Now Located !>y Wireless Buried treasure Is said to have been discovered In paying quantities by a party of British and American adven turers in Panama City. The party is equipped with a new wireless device that indicates the presence of large quantities of buried metal. At 'Panama City, jewels, plate, and chains of precious -metal are said to have been -found. If the treasure seeker continues to prove a success, it will probably he used In searching for pirates' hoards in the West Indies and on the Mex ican coast, ns well as in two oilier spots, Cocos .island, off (he coast of Chile, and a small volcanic island off Brazil. These two places are known as the world's greatest treasure fields. Toy Balloon Went Far A tiny toy balloon made'a 300-mile air “hop” in three days. The craft took the air one Saturday night, ac cording io its owner, O. C. .Inman of Nashville, Tenn. Inman tied ,a slip of paper to (lie balloon asking Hie finder to write to him. After a week had gone by, Inman received a letter from Hubert Mitchell of Lavonia, Ga.. 300 miles away. It read: “I found a balloon about one mile out of La conia one afternoon with your address on it. It bad a small hole In tho bot tom and looked as if It had lieen melt ed by heat. It came cbwn ut sun down in a pasture.” Art Treasures Restored ,Tlie , dean of Westminster nbbqy, tired of looking at some soiled hang ings in a seldom-used .chamber, .or dered them cleaned. They proved to be priceless,tapestries woven in 4550 by tiie Belgian master, Bernard van iQrley of:Brussels. How itliey came into tiie possession of tiie abbey is unknown. They had Suffered from being cut to fit into po sitions on the walls and from the pas sage of time. Some of them were so dirty that their subjects were indis tinguishable, but the cleaning process restored the original colors and now they may be seen in all their splen dor.—London Mail.

A Plant Punctures Tires War continues against Hie "punc ture weed,” California’s rapid-spread ing vine whose half-inch (thorns play 1 havoc with motor car tires on coun try roads. A single vine found near tl.os Angeles covered a circle 14 feet across. Desperate efforts to check this troublesome plant’s spread are hindered by its prolific seed, 1,500 to a square foot, that .mature nil year round and force a oonHnuqps [battle.— Popular Science Monthly.
