Not Mercury But Price
ATLANTA, Ga., March 31. —Ther-
JRLieters are going up. This is is not a
WRng joke, but a fact. The statement
■fers to the price and not to the .
lercury. The cause of the increased'
rices, you have already guessed it,
the war. The fine glass tubes are
anufactured in Germany and the
ipply is becoming depleted.
Some of the kinds of thermometers
ive increased as much as 100 per

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 31.
Representative William Schley How-j
ard is framing a measure for introduc
tion in the house to place an embargo '
on gasoline shipments from this coun
try to foreign ports with a view to
curbing what he believes to be an un
justifiable advance in prices of pe
troleum products. Mr. How'ard stated
that he would have the co-operation of
i,
Senator Hoke Smith in this move
ment. |
Forbidden by the constitution from
laying any tax or duty on the export '
cf gasoline, he will ask congress to
seek to curb the refinery by forbid 1
ding absolutely any of their products
leaving American shores, until prices
reach a level, which the president in
his judgment, believes justifiable.
Among the explanations given for ' 1
the rising trend of prices, is that pro
duction lias decreased in the last nine
months, while the use of oil in this '
country as fuel and the refined product '
in gasoline engines, have increased 1
as well as exportation abroad.
These are said to be sound economic 1
I
reasons for the advance and justify the '
present prices under the natural law
of supply and demand.
Mr. Howard says he is prepared to '
show that there has been no decrease
in production and that the falling off
in yield of the Cushing oil pool has
been more than overcome by new drill- :
ings. 1
Neither has there been such an in
creased exportation as would cause a '
shortage in this country, which would '
justify an advance in rates, he says. 1
Yet prices are to be advanced another
three cents a gallon tomorrow.
In a conference with Secretary of 1
Commerce Redfield today, Mr. Howard
learned that the department had been
unable to make a contract for the gov
' crnment’s requirements of gasoline for
the year beginning July 1 at less than
,40 cents a gallon.
I The attention of Mr. Howard has
been directed to this matter by ap-.
peals by letter from Georgia friends,
as well as editorials in the Atlanta
Constitution and others papers publish
! ed in that state.
Commissioner Harris, who is direct
ing the investigation ordered by the
I federal trade commission into the
causes of present prices, estimates that
the result of his inquiry can be given
to the country within the next month,
or by April 30th.

CROP OF PEACHES
I
Reports from all over the peach belt
I indicate that there will be a normal
?rop of peaches this year. Growers
and experts are of the opinion that
the crop will be about the same as
last year. Some varieties suffered
I more than others, the Belles, perhaps,*
being affected more than any other
kind. That the crop will not be ser
iously curtailed will be good news to
I the lovers of Georgia's most delicious
fruit. |
Ml SHE WIFE i
NOW WHISTLES AND
SINGS ILL THE TIME
I <
r
"SHE'E AS BRIGHT AND HAPPY AS (
A 16-YER-OLD- GIRL," SAYS ,
DAIRY FARMER j
n 1
"My wife goes about the house now ’
singin and whistling all the time, and
! no wonder she is so happy, for on just <
| three bottles of Tanlac she has gained
'eighteen (18) pounds and she is like
a different woman altogether,” said J.
1 8. Zachry, the well known dairyman
<
of Swords, Ga., in conversation wita
the Tanlac representative at Jacobs' (
Pharmacy, Atlanta, last Saturday.. ,
"I’m here to get a bottle to taka
myself,” he continued, “for it’s helped
her so much I am sure it will be a fine j
spring tonic for jne to take.
“My wife suffered with indigestlo 1
and stomach trouble for a long timr
and was in a general rundown condi
tion. She reached the point where she *
couldn’t hardly sleep at all and her ap- 1
petite went down to almost nothing. 1
She couldn’t take interest in anything, ’
was very weak and nervous and seem- 1
ed despondent all the time. She lost ’
a good deal in weight and her strength !
was all getting away from her.
"This is the very shape she was in
when she began taking Tanlac. She
has now taken three bottles of the
medicine and the indigestion has been
relieved entirely. She hasn’t a pain
about her and feels fine in every wav.
She has been gaining weight and ■
strength ever since she took her first 1
few doses, and weighs eighteen (18) ;
pounds more today than she did the day
she began taking Tanlac. She has the *
biggest kind of an appetite and eats '
meats, hot biscuits and anything else
she wants and everything agrees with !
her perfectly. She is no longer ner- 1
' ous nor dizzy and sleeps like a baby. -
She goes about her housework as hap
py as a sixteen-year-old girl and I
smiles all the time. v
”J have one hundred cows to look as- 1
ter and my wife is helping me more
with my work than she ever has in.
her life. Tanlac just seems to have
filled her with new life, strength and
energy, and you don’t know how hap
py we are over her recovery. It’s
Just marvelous the way it has acted
with her, and if anybody wants tj
know what we think of Tanlac, they
can just see or write me.
Speaking of Tanlac and the work it
is doing, Mr. G. F. Willis, Southern
Distributor of Tanlac, said:
"There is no season of the year when
Tanlac can be taken to better advan
tage than now. In the spring
time all mankind, after weathering the
storms of winter, is in need of an up
building tonic. There is nothing more
nvgorating to a rundown system than
I Tanlac. It will prove invaluable t j
I ersons who are suffering from indi
gestion, la grippe, catarrhal or bron
chial troubles. At this particular sea
son my suggestion is that persons so
affected should take the full course of
six bottles of the medicine.”
i Tanlac is sold exclusively in Ameri
cas by Alien’s Drug & Seed Store; in
Leslie by Leslie Drug Co.; in Plains,
Ga., by Plains Pharmacy; in Sumter,
Ga., by Persons Merc. Co., and in An
dersonville, Ga., by Easterlin Bros.

BAINBRIOGE WANTS A
BRANCH OF U.S. COURT
BAINBRIDGE, Ga., Marcn 31.—The
Bainbridge Board of Trade has taken
up the matter of getting a branch of
the United States court for Bainbridge.
The Bainbridge organizations believes
that the best interests of the people la
this section of the state can be served
if a branch of the court is established
nearer the center of southwest Geor
gia.
As it is, witnesses, jurors and others
having business before the United
States court must attend in Valdosta.
This works a great, hardship on peo
ple in Decatur, Early, Grady and
Miller counties, ard is a source
of great expense to the government.
The matter hss been taken up with
Congressman Park and the two sena
tors.

SEVERE PUNISHMENT
Os Mrs. Chappell, of Five Years'
Standing, Relieved by Cardui.
Mt. Airy, N. C.—Mrs. Sarah M. Chap
pell of this town, says: “I suffered for
rive years with womanly troubles, also
stomach troubles, and my punishment
was more than any one could tell.
I tried most every kind of medicine,
but none did me any good.
I read one day about Cardui, the wo
man’s tonic, and 1 decided to try it. I
had not taken but about six bottles until
I was almost cured. It did me more
good than all the other medicines 1 had
tried, put together.
My friends began asking me why I
looked so wel!, and 1 tola them about
I Cardui. Several are now taking it.’’
Do you, lady reader, suffer from any
of the ailments due to womanly trouble,
such as headache, backache, sideache,
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired
feeling?
If so, let us urge you to give Cardui a
trial. We feel confident it will help you.
just as it has a million other women in
the past half century.
Begin taking Cardui to-day. You
won’t regret it. Al) uruggists.
