MOTHER! LOOK AT
CHILD'S TONGUE
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give ‘‘California Syrup
of Figs”
A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach
sour.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat
ed, or your child is listless, cross, fev
erish, breath bad, restless, doesn’t eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children’s ailment, give a
teaspoonful of “Californik Syrup of
Figs,” then don’t worry, because it is
perfectly harmless, and in a few r hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a w'ell, playful child again. A thor
ough “inßlde cleansing” is oftimes all
that 1s necessary. It should bo the
first treatment given in any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle of
“California Syrup of Figs,” which has
full directions for babies, children of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.

Rheumatism ?s Torture
Many pains that pass as rheumatism
are due to weak kidneys— to the failure
of the kidneys to drive off uric acid
thoroughly.
When you suffer achy, bad joints, back
ache too, dizziness and some urinary
disturbances, get Doan’s Kidney Pills,
the remedy that is recommended by over
150,000 people in many different lands.
Doan's Kidney Pills help weak kid
neys to drive out the uric acid which
is the cause of backache, rheumatism
and lumbago.
Here’s proof. *
f James M. Tracy, S.

twenty years I had
kidney complaint. I

matic pains across
my back and my
bladder was badly
Inflamed 1 had dizzy

No Necessity for Smoke.
All excuse tor keeping Atlanta a
sinokey city lias been removed by the
establishment of the immense water
power at Tallulah, according to a state
ment made by B. M. Hall, consulting
engineer of Atlanta, in an address be
fore the mechanical science and engi
neering department of Georgia Tech.
Mr. Hall points out that within a 100-
mile radius around Atlatna there is 1,-
153,000 horsepower, and that within a
radius of 150 miles the available liorse
power runs over three millions.
The part that this wonderful devel
opment and the tower lines of the
Georgia Railway ana Power company
will play in the future upbuilding of
Georgia, Mr. Hall said, was so great
that it could not be estimated, if
properly utilized it w ill make Georgia
tlie richest manufacturing state in the
whole country, and at the same time
w ill play a great part in the develop
ment of cities and the improvement
of municipal conditions.
Better Days Ahead for Georgia.
“The day is near at hand when the
people of Georgia and this section of
the South will manufacture what they
eat and what they wear,” declares
President J. C. Haden of the Georgia
Chamber of Commerce, in a leading
article in Frost’s Magazine, The Call
of the South, which, like other publi
cations throughout the state, is co-op
erating to the extent of its ability in
the state chamber work.
While Frost’s Magazine lias no offi
cial connection with the state cham
ber of commerce, a coming issue of the
magazine is going to be devoted espe
j eially to the state chamber movement
! and other interesting articles in addi
tion to that by President Haden will
appear in it.
The state chamber of commerce is
receiving in all parts of the state the
splendid co-operation and aid of vari
ous weekly and other publications
which are interested in the commer
cial and agricultural prosperity of the
section.
A series of cartoons by Frank Stan
ton, Jr., son of the Georgia poet, de
j voted to state chamber of commerce
I interests, will from time to time ap
i pear in “The Call of the South.”
Never Sold Bends Below Par.
By way of response to numerous
inquiries which he has received late
ly in regard to the credit of the state
from persons living at a distance,
State Treasurer Speer announced that
he had made a careful investigation
covering the period since the war,
and he finds that no bonds of the
state have ever been sold below par.
He is preparing a statement to be
sent out to inquirers showing the re
sults of his investigations.
This is, indeed, a record of which
any state may be proud, and sur
passes any of the great countries.

Federal Aid For Good Roads.
That congress will at this session
pass a bill giving federal aid to the
states in the building of good roads
is the settled conviction of Gordon
Lee, representative from the seventh
congressional district. The bill will,
in the opinion of Mr. Lee, carry with
it an appropriation of at least v 20,-
000,000.
Mr. Lee was in Atlanta on his way
to Washington to resume his duties
in congress and, while here, he talk
ed very interestingly of the growth of
the good roads sentiment and of the
strength to which the movement for
federal aid had attained in the pres
ent congress.
“it is very important that the state
should get ready to acept the money
that will be offered it by the United
States government,’’ declared Mr.
Lee. “The legislature should pass a
bill at the next session providing for
a state highway commision or some
state department that would be in a
position to receive the federal funds
and would be responsible for their ex
penditure.”
Atlanta Wants Regional Bank.
The prospective success of Atlanta
in securing a regional bank will be a
state-wide triumph, in which not only
Atlanta, but every city of Georgia will
have a right to claim a part.
All petty jealousy has been put aside
and Georgia has united in advancing
tlie strong argument that Atlanta has
the largest and most central city of the
section, should have one of the big
central financial depots which Uncle
Sam is about to establish.
The strongest endorsements of tlie
idea have come from Macon, Columbus
and other Georgia cities. Clearing
House associations and chambers of
commerce have given the project their
unqualified endorsement.
Facts have been presented in Wash
ington. and have been strongly back
ed by United States Senator Hoke
Smith, showing that the southeastern
states are pre-eminently in need of a
reserve bank, and that the location of
Atlanta and the enormous business
done through Atlanta banks, place this
city far in the lead of other south
eastern cities for the choice of the or
ganization committee.
The postal receipts of Atlanta to
day are larger than any city south
of Washington, Cincinnati, St. Louis
and tlie bank clearings of Atlanta are
in excess of any other city in the same
territory’.
In is pointed out that the establish
ment of a regional bank in Atlanta
w'ill be of almost as much benefit to
all the banks in Georgia as it will be
to those located in Atlanta. The im
portance of the establishment of the
bank to tlie state as a whole is the
tiling which lias brought about the
united sentiment in its favor.
$20,000 Surplus Goes to Schools.
Game Commissioner Charles L. Da
vis announced that he had turned
ever $20,000 from his department to
the state treasury. This was the bal
ance which he had to the credit of
the game and fish protection fund
Under the new law this money will
go to the public school fund. This
is much the largest sum which has
been turned over to the treasury by
the game department since its es
tablishment three years ago.
Georgia Music Prodigy.
Georgia is going fo give the next
musical prodigy to the world, in the
person of a blind negro, according to
the judgment of Atlanta musical crit
ie£, who have been to hear Frank
Butts, the blind negro boy of Eatonton. |
w ho entered the Georgia Academy for
the Blind a year ago.
The boy is young, still in knee pants,
but already has a marvelous technique,
and plays such classic selections as
Paderewski’s Minuet, Chaminade’s mu
sic and Leybach’s “Fifth Nocture,”
with a brilliant touch that would do
credit to any normal mature artisL

George 111. was such a thrifty king
that we cannot doubt that he hugged
the little chap, of whom Thackeray
tejls this delightful story, and longed
to knight him on the spot.
One day, when the king and queen
were walking together, probably at ;
Kew, they met a little boy —they were
always fond of children, the good
folks —and patted the little tow head.
“Whose little boy are you?” asked
the king.
“I am the king’s beef-eater’s little
boy,” replied the child.
On which the king said, “Then kneel
down and kiss the queen's hand ”
But the Innocent offspring of the
beef-eater declined this treat.
“No,” Bald he, ”1 won’t kneel, for if
1 do, I shall spoil my new breeches.” —

“A Pleasant Time Was Had.”
Elmer G. Pershing, an Odon poultry’
dealer, had a job the other week which
he does not care to try again,’’ relates
the Indianapolis News. Mr. Pershing
bought 2,400 geese at Loogootee and
rather than ship them a roundabout
way to his home town, decided to
drive them through, a distance of 12
miles. The geese quacked their way
peacefully along until they’ came to a
creek, where the leader decided he
wished to swim. It was a game of
“follow your leader,” and the other
2,399 trailed along. Pershing and hi 3
helpers tried repeatedly to drive the
geese back to the roadway, but they
wouldn’t go until the leader had com
pleted his bath. Finally the leader com
pleted his toilet and ventured out on
the creek bank. Pershing and his help
ers Van him back to the roadway,
with the rest of the flock in pursuit.
No further difficulty was experienced
with them.
