SNAP SHOTS. (By Rev. \V. it. Faust.) Asa general rule folks arc never happy unless they are miserable. The trouble with tuieh philosophy is its delete rious effete on others.

Busy At Work On Plans For Great Victory Loan Atlanta, Feb. ...—Headquarters ol the Sixth Federal Reserve District in Atlanta is almost as busy as though the campaign were actually under way. A vast amount of preliminary work has been made necessary by the indl vidual quota system to be tried out for the first time in the South. The “fair and square” idea is to be carried out in this, every citizen being assigned a quota based on bis tax returns and income. If he regards the quota as unjust, he has the right of appeal to an adjustment committee. The fifth, or “Victory” Loan will be necessary If the United StateH is to finish the job it started. The war did not end with the signing of the armis tice. It will not end even with the conclusion of the peace terms. The war will not be over until the bills are paid, and it is up to the people oi the United States to pay them—to feed the soldiers and bring them home. The United States had barely begun to fight when the armistice was sign ed, but it had prepared for war on an enormous scale. This was probably one of the reasons Germany quit so suddenly—she saw that Uncle Sam was going to war on a big scale. And now the bills must be paid, either by taxation or Investment. A Victory bond will be of much more value to all of us than a stack of tax receipts. Pinch of Poverty. Next to the proletariat of India and Chino, the Russian peasant feels the pinch of poverty and hunger more keenly and more frequently than uny other citizen on onrlh. says the Nation al Geographic Magazine. •—**' CALLED HER FAMILY ■ TO HEB BEDSIDE Six Years Ago, Thinking She Might Die, Says Texas Lady, But Now She Is a Well, Strong Woman and Praiics Citrdui For Her Recovery.

DOLLARS FOR RGADSJN GEORGIA But Georgia Will Not Get a Cent of It Until She Passes High way Bill Which Suits the Federal Government Atlanta, Feb. ... —Under the new amendment to the federal postoffice bill in the senate, $7,000,000 is set aside as Georgia's share of the federal road fund for this year and the next two years, dispatches from Washing ton announce. But none of this money will be available until Georgia creates a state highway commission acceptable to the government, and presents a sys tem of highway improvement upou which the federal fund is to be spent. In the meantime, other states which have passed the necessary highway laws will go ahead with their work, having the first opportunity to engage engineers, purchase materials and car ry out their plans. Advocates of Georgia good roads are urging Governor Dorsey to call an ex tra session of the legislature for an early date, for the express purpose of taking up the good roads laws and passing some bill which will assure work on the roads this summer. Even if nothing more is done for this year than to raise the automobile license tax, as proposed, it will mean many thousands of dollars made available for permanent road work. The pro posed $40,000,000 bond issue must, of course, go before (he people for rati fication at the next general election, but the federal road funds can be made available before then. Governor Dorsey, a short time ago, said he was maintaining an open mind on the subject of an extsa session, and, if convinced, it would be best he would call it. The special committee of he legislature appointed by him to draft a highway law will submit its report to the governor on February 26, and is expected to include in that report a recommendation that the extra ses sion be called. It Is pointed out that the expense of the proposed session would be a great deal less than the loss of even a few months use of Im proved roads, and that the increase in automobile license fees this year wpuld far more than pay for the ses sion. the better. That was six years ago and I am still here and am a well, strong woman, and I owe my life to Cardui. I had only taken half tha bottle when I began to feel better. The misery In my side got less... I continued right on taking the Cardui until I had taken three bottles and I did not need any more for I was well and never felt better In my life... I have never had any trouble from that day to this.” Do you suffer from headache, back ache, pains in sides, or other discom forts, each month? Or do you feel weak, nervous and fagged-out?
