catarrh (or ten years, tried a lot

hut it did me no good. Instead of
getting better I grew worse. My
eyes were bloodshot, my nose
smelled bad, and I would get so
dizzy I would be forced to catch
bold of something to keep from
falling. I used about ten bottles
of Pe-ru-na and am cured of
catarrh, the dizzy feeling has left
me and I am not bothered any
more. I keep Pe-ru-na in the house
and when I feel a cold coming on
I take a little. It does me good.”

Atlanta.—Declaring that the host
legal minds were agreed that the sal
ary system could be substituted for
the fee system In Fulton county by
simple statutes and not necessarily by
constitutional amendment^ the Fulton
county grand Jury recently, In Its reg
ular May presentments, demanded lm
mediate action on the proposed change
and -called to the present legislature
to act In accordance with the express
ed will of the voters of this county.
The grand Jury went farther than
this in its presentments, however, and
called for a thorough survey of the At
lanta police department, the sheriff’s
office, the criminal courts and other
branches of government affected by
crime in an effort to find out the
causes for increases In crime and prob
able remedies.
Other recommendations were: (1)
To have the county commissioners
publish each year the Itemized ac
counts of receipts and disbursements
to show if there had been "Illegal do
nations 'to clubs, campaigns, parades,
barbecues and conventions; (2) to
combine the offices of the City Tax
Collector and County Tax Collector,
City Tax Receiver and County Tax
Receiver, and (3) to discontinue the
fixing of sentences by Juries.
In its recommendation as to the
salary system, the grand Jury urged
that Immediate action be taken
that the change could be In effect by
January 1. It was pointed out that
number of legal authorities had
been questioned by the jury and that
all agreed that a survey of the condl
tions in the county was not necessary
and that the change should be made
effective at once.
The argument that a constitutional
amendment Is necessary for the
change Is all bunk,” the grand Jury
declared, “and the best legal minds
say that the change can be made by
simple statute. At the request of the
jury, Reuben Arnold has already drawn
a bill for the change and we urge the
Fulton county representatives to get
behind the change so earnestly desir
ed by the people of this county.”
The grand Jury also asked all civic
organizations to lend their aid in the
fight for the salary system.
As to the Increase In crime, espec
ially in automobile thefts, burglary
and bootlegging, the grand Jury de
clared a survey should be made to see
where the cause lies and to find out
whether the police departments or the
courts are to blame.
It was pointed out that $1,000,000
a year is spent on the protection of
the county and It was to find out if
this money Is being spent to the best
advantage that the survey was asked.
This survey would take in the police
department, the sheriff’s office, the re
corder’s court, municipal Juvenile and
criminal courts, and the Industrial
forma.
In concluding Its. report the grand
Jury paid high tribute to Solicitor
John Boykin and his assistants, de
claring they had had long experience
and unusual success.”
"“They have served without fear or
favor,” the grand Jurors declared,
“and have met with great success In
their work.”

BAPTIST MINISTER GIVES
TANLAC FULL CREDIT
No greater praise can be accorded
a medicine than the voluntary testi
mony of a minister of the gospeL The
preacher’s high calling puts a grave
responsibility on his every word, and
he will not Jeopardize his reputation
by commending a thing without first
assuring himself It Is all right.
Tanlac has been endorsed by num
bers of prominent ministers. They
have put Tanlac to the test of per
gonal service and their words carry
conviction because they say what they
know to be the truth.
One of the latest to speak out In
behalf of Tanlac Is Rev. B. El. Bell, a
retired Baptist minister, 207 Elm St.,
San Antonio, Texas, who says:
“Before taking Tanlac I had suf
fered from stomach and nerve trou
bles for over 80 yeers and there were
times when my condition was such
that it required almost superhuman
effort for me to prepare my sermons
and go through with my Sunday serv
ices. Indeed, my work seemed like
some great obstacle across my path
way—a burden too big to carry to my
weak physical condition.
“But In six weeks’ time Tanlac
transformed my entire outlook, giving
me what seemed like a new set of
nerves and a brand-new digestive
system. My appetite became raven
ous, my nerves steady, my liver action
regular and I could .Bleep sound for
the first time In years. Whenever I
have the slightest symptoms of trou
ble now I always resort to Tanlac,
am taking some at present, and It
never falls to smooth things out for
me. I certainly have the best of rea
sons for feeling grateful to Tanlac.”
Tanlac is for sale by all good drug
gists. Accept no substitute. Over 40
million bottles sold.

Floyd Prisoner 8lashes Throat
Rome.—J. W. Bagley, prisoner at
the Floyd county chalngang camp, at
tempted to end his life recently when
he cut his throat from ear to ear with
a razor. .He Is at a local hospital, and
In a very serious condition. Bagley
was sentenced recently to nine
months on the gang and when the sen
tence was given he asked Judge John
Bale to kill him, because he preferred
death to a sentence. Physicians state
that If Bagley had cut his throat lower
It would have meant Instant death; as
it was he cut the root of his tongue. It
Is thought that he will live.
Greenland Whalee
. The Greenland whale has a small
gullet. It can swallow only small ob
jects. But the sperm whale, or cacha
lot, has an enormous throat, easily big
enough to swallow lumps of deep sen
squid weighing upward of 60 pounds.
There is little difference in the re
spective size of these two species of
whales. Of course there Is a vast dif
ference In the size of individual whales
of either species. Take n range be
tween SO tons and 100 tons, and you
will find most whales come within
these limits, although my father, one
of the old-school whalers out of Peter
head, told me he had cut In n sperm
whale registering 120 tons.
A whule does not spawn. Whales
are not fish nor reptiles, but mammals.
They bring forth calves as land cows
do, and suckle them at the breast. As
for enemies, there Is the thresher
whale, which gangs together and licks
Mr. Whale—sometimes—and the giant
squid, which the whale eats. The
whale Is a whale of a survivor against
all but man.—Captnln Dingle In Ad
venture Magazine.
