Atlanta.—The rediscount rate of the
Atlanta Federal Reserve bank will be
cut from 4 1-2 to 4 per cent on all
classes of paper, according to an an
nouncement made by M. B. Wellborn,
governor of the Sixth District Federal
Reserve bank here. Governor Well
born made this announcement, follow
ing the receipt of hews from Washing
ton to the effect that the federal re
serve board had approved the applica
tion of the sixth district bank to cut
Its rates. The action Is In line with
moves made by four other federal re
serve banks.
The most recent and notable cuts- In
rediscount rates were those of the
New York and Boston reserve banks,
which, in the last few months, have
reduced their rates from 4 1-2 to 3 1-2
per cent. The process of lowering the
dates of these two Institutions was
through two cuts, the rates being low
ered one-half of one per cent each
time.
The cut in the sixth district still
leaves the federal reserve rediscount
rate In this territory one-halt of one
per cent above the rates enjoyed In
the Boston and New York districts.
The cut here is the first one in over
a year, the" last slash' bringing the
rate from 6 per cent to the 4 1-2 per
cent tate that existed until the recent'
order.
Governor Wellborn, In making the
announcement of the cut, attached no
significance to the order except that
the Atlanta bank had merely followed
lu the steps of the banks In the other
districts of the country, He would
not discuss the probable effect the
new rate would have on business in
general. The new rate becomes effec
tive Immediately.^
Reductions here, as ' elsewhere
In (be country, however, show that
easier money rates and Increased
liquidation exists, which are two sa
lient signs of a good outlook In busi
ness and industry. The rate In this
district is still a little above normal,
but Is quite a reduction from the
high seven per cent that existed dur
ing the war-time period.

How American Flier $

done more to make the International
date line an understandable reality to
millions of readers than conld numer

headquarters of the National Geo
graphic society.
“This unusual date, line appeared In
the morning papers of May 17 that

the morning; The dis£utch told of the
arrival the same day, Saturday, at
11:35 in the morning, of America’s

the date line Immediately after leav

Too Much Acting

toric colonial mansion in North Tar-
rytown, which was recently damaged
by 'fire, told a story of the Stage. “A
mnnager,” she said, “refused the 'other
day to engage a young married couple
for a new play he was putting on.
‘They’re good people,’ he said, ‘and I’ll
engage one or the other of them, but
not both.’ ‘Why not both?’ said the
playwright, a young man. ‘They’re
both clever.’ ‘That may be,’ said the
manager, ‘but the public don’t care to
see rt man making love to his own
wife.’ ‘Why not, I wonder?’, said the
playwright. -It looks too much like
acting,’ said the manager.”—Pittsburgh

Swamp-Root a Fine Medicine
Thoasands , upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble una never
suspect it. *
Women’s complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or tbe
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con
dition they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
Yon may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irritable
and may be despondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, by restoring health
to the kidneys, proved to he just' the
remedy needed to overcome such condi
tions.
Many send for a sample bottle to see
what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver
and bladder medicine will do for them.
By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. Y,, you may receive
sample size bottle by parcel post. You
