WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 9, 1924 BOWEL”- Os DM HIDE DIG WEALTH Fortunes Be.ng Plowed Over in Agricultural Pursuits, Says Noted Engineer ATLANTA, April 9.—That the mineral resources of the South are enormous, though comparatively untouched, great wealth being plow ed over in agricultural pursuits, is the statement of Dr. Henry Mace Payne, distinguished consulting en gineer, who is making a survey of Dixie’s agricultural wealth for the American Mining Congress Georgia will be surveyed by Dr. Payne before he completes his re port, which will be published by the Wash ingtorj headquarters of the American Mining Congress. It is announced that he will make his headquartes in Asheville, N. C, during his survey. Dr. Payne is 'consulting engi! r<eer f or important financial inter ests in its operation of mines in Mexico. Before the war he went to Russia as consulting engineer for a British corporation operating gold fields in Sibera, and later became consultant to the Czar of Russia, still continuing operation in Siberia. These gold fields, he stated, are by far the richest in the world and were extensively op erated during the war. Since the < advent of the Soviet regime little is known as to their condition. “At least a generation will pass before Russia again resumer a semblance of normality,” said Dr. Payne, “due mainly to the fact thas under the Czar the population of that vast territory w as 98 per cent illiterate, and the remaining 2 per cent are now either dead or in exile. “While no man can p rbphesy as to what will eventually become of Russia, it is not unlikely that all of Eastern Russian will combine with Germany intp one couhtry! and t he territory 1 ying btween the Ural range and Lake Aral will be all that remains strictly Russian. Siberia may eventually be incor jorated with Japan.” CRIPPLE ARRESTED ON LIQUOR CHARGE COLUMBUS, April 9.—Alleged to have had in his possession five half pints of whiskey, Will Davis •of the Girard section, was arrested on a charge of violating the prohi bition law by city police detectives. Three other states cases were made by the police last night. The de fendants will be given preliminary hearing in the recorder’s court this morning. Davis, who is a cripple was ar rested near the corner of lO'h street and First avenue by Detec tives Fred Deadwyler, W. E. Put nam and J. B. Hart. The man had one half pint of whiskey concealed in his sock and four more half pints in is pocket, the officers said Don’t Take a Chance Americus People Should Act in Time ■ls you suffer from backache; If you have headaches, dizzy spells; If the kidney secretions are ir regular, Don’t delay—likely your kidneys are sick. Americus people recommend Doan’s Pills. Here’s an Americus experience: 0. B. Jones, 802 Baisden St., says: “I suffered from lam e back and when I stooped, a stitch took me in the small of it, and I had to raise up by inches. The kidney se cretions passed too freely and were scanty. I felt tired, drowsy and out of sorts. Doan’s Pills, pur chased at Howell’s Pharmacy, cured me.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for kidney remedy—• ( get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr. Jones had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs'., Buffalo, N. Y.— (adv.) SHATTERED NERVES Lady Says She Was In a Desper ate Condition, But “Now In Splendid Health” After Taking Cardui. Dale, Ind.—“About three years ago ” says Mrs. Flora Roberts, of this place, “I had the ‘flu’, which left me in a desperate condition. I had a bad cough. I went down in weight to little over one hundred pounds. I took dif ferent medicines—did everything, but nothing seemed to do me any good I hurt so badly in the chest at times I would have to go to the door to get my breath. “I would have the headache ana ... was so weak I felt like I would just have to sink down and stay there. “My nerves were shattered. I looked for something awful to happen—! would tremble and shake at a noise. “My mother said, ‘Do try Cardui and my husband insisted till I b^K* l ! its use. I used two bottles of Cardui ... and noted a big improvement in mv condition. I kept up the Cardui and weigh 180 pounds. I am now in splendid health —sure am a firm be liever in Cardui, for I’m satisfied it did the work." After a weakening illness a tonic n needed to help regain lost strength Many thousands of women have fount Cardui exactly what they needed foi this purpose. It may be just what you neect Try it.
