The . . . grew worse, find for about three weeks nothing seemed to do me any good. I grew so weak and nervous and could not sleep. I began to have pain in the lower part of my body, and all across my back. There was a great deal of soreness and pain in my left side ... I just gave up, for I suffered so. I grow discouraged and thought I was not going to get well. “My head not only ached, but would feel so light and dizzy ... I decided then I would take Cardui, as I read of how many women it had benefited, and some whose case was like mine. When I began Cardui. just after a few doses, I noticed a change. I slept better at night . . . nnd felt like I could eat something. I got up nnd began to do the work in the house and yard, and after three or four bottles of Cardui I was well.” If you suffer from disorders pecu liar to women, take Cardui —the Woman’s Tonic.

THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR, MT. VERNON, GEORGIA. GOV. MAY CALL EXTRA SESSION COLLEGES THROUGHOUT STATE URGE NECESSITY OF QUICK ACTION STATE NEWSJJF INTEREST Brief News Items Gathered Here and There From All Sections Os The State Atlanta. —With the state education al institutions now lacing their most serious crisis in many years on ac count of the failure of the last legis lature to provide sufficient funds to meet current expenses. Gov. Hugh M. Dorsey has been asked by represen tives of the University of Georgia, the state agricultural college, state nor mal school anil Georgia School of Technology to call an extra session of the legislature at an early date to provide means to meet the situation, and the chief executive now has the matter under serious consideration. Appearing before the governor at Athens, recently, where he went in the interest of the “Advertising Geor gia" campaign, representatives of the institutions based their petition for an extra session on the grounds that funds provided by the last legislature were wholly insufficient and unless some provision is soon made the state normal school and possibly one of the others will have to close their doors before April. In replying to the request of the committee, the governor stated the calling of an extraordinary sessicli of the legislature was a very im portant matter, as well as expensive, but he realized the situation confront ing the educational institutions, and would take it under consideration. The leaders of both houses will be called into a conference with the governor, he said, and if it was de cided to hold the extra session he would include other important con constructive matters, some of which were killed during the last session of the legislature. Ccorgia Tech will be practically bankrupt after January 1, and it is to provide for the period after this date that the campaign has been institut ed to raise $125,000 which is needed to finish the term. Tuition fees will finance the school during the first three months. Clas For Deaf At Oakland Atlanta.— One of the , most un ; usual classes in the Atlanta public I schols is the Atlanta School for deaf I children, which is being conducted at ! the Oakland City school. The class is for children who are too deaf to be taught by ordinary methods. Several more children can he accommodated, j it was announced. For several years the class was conducted at the Ash by Street school, but when the school converted in to a colored school the class for children with bad hearing was transferred to Oakland City. The class room is well equipped with kin- j dergarten material, and various helps for teaching the children how to read the lips and acquire the use of signs and finger spelling. Big Liabilities Shown In Report Athens. —An excess of approximately $432,000 in liabilities over assets was \ disclosed in the auditors’ report on j the financial condition of John Welch, i local cotton factor, who last month I was said to be in financial difficulties j as a result of breaks in the cotton market. The auditors have been at work on his books for several weeks and presented their report, at a meet ing of about fifty creditors and at torneys representing creditors held at the Welch warehouse. The auditors’ report showed liabilities of approxi mately $832,000, represented by notes i outstanding on loans and warehouse j receipts outstanding for cotton. The assets in cotton and money in the bank and other assets were approxi mately by four hundred thousand dol •trs. Boost Georgia, Urates Governor. Savannah. —"The Advertise Geor- ' £ia” movement was formally and most auspiciously launched here at a meet- I ing of prominent representatives of the city and city’s trade organizations of the several counties of the first congressional district and several oth er visitors of the state, when Gov ernor Hugh Dorsey spoke to the con ference, telling of the origin, devel opment and plans, scope and purposes to place Georgia before the world. J Savannah and the first district re- , sponded cordially and enthusiastically and this "zone” wil be found in the front rank of the forces of the state, I lined up for the progressive enter- ’ orise. Huge Attendance For University. Athens. —When the books closed on the thidr day of registration, 406 i Btudents had enrolled. The increased enrollment and the inability of the ; university to employ more instructors : because of the failure of the legisla- i ture to provide additional mainten- ' ance funds, has resulted in a ruling limiting more rigidly the number of hours a student may take per week. The dormitories are already filled and are being made to accommdate 50 per cent more than the normal number. Atlanta Remains Second Coolest City Atlanta. —Highest temperature, 86 degrees. Importance will hardly bo at tached to this, until it is said that me teorological observations registered at 7 a. m., local time Thursday, I6th in stant, recorded Atlanta’s highest tern : perafure during the past twenty-four hours as being 86 degrees, und the lowest 68. The general opinion is that the atmosphere around SKlantu is be ing terribly over-heated. A crimp may bo put into this opinion when it is learned that Atlanta remains the second coolest city in the south east despite the fact that its tem perature registered high. Look at Birmingham sweltering tinder 90 de grees. Charleston doing the same thing, with St. Louis, Memphis and Mobile hitting between 90 and 94. At lanta is cool and doesn't know it. C. H. von Herrmann, gazer into the me teorological crystal sphere, is opti mistic as to the future. He is a friend of the farmer and everybody in general and revels in the oppor tunity of passing out favorable wenth ,er predictions, and he believes that a lengthy continuation of the present weather will be beneficial to this part of the country. His predictions are be ing carried out to the letter and fair and warm weather continues to prei! vail throughout the cotton belt. 23 Crap Shooters Arersted Atlanta. —Read ’em and weop, then| weep some more. So they did, when' Atlanta detectives made a sensation-1 ai raid on what is said to have been one of the most elaborately equipped gambling dens ever molested l>y the law's strong arm in this city, when they forced an entrance to a room on Central avenue, arrested twenty-, three men and confiscated roulette wheels and a mass of other gambling: ! paraphernalia. The room had so been; ( fitted out that entrance could hardly have been gained except through the regular way. Peep holes had been placed in all doors which were bolt-j ed from the inside and locked with 1 heavy locks. The place had been un-j der the notice of officers of the de tective department for some time and, they had made detail plans for ing its capture. i Convicted Os Murder In Griffin Cour, Griffin. —Whit Bailey, who was! j charged with the murder of Lonniij ] Mays at a negro frolic near Griffin] I cii May 8, 1920, was found guilty olj j jnurder by a jury in Spulding supc-j j rior court. He will draw the extreme! j penalty in such cases as the jury fail] ; ed to recommend him to the mercy of the court. This case makes the) fourth murder case tried in Spulding| superior court this year, with two otii-j ers now pending. The negro, Lonniej Masy, was killed at a negro frolic in ' Cabin district. Whit Bailey, the ac-j [ cused, had some words with one Floya j Harris during the progress of thij dance and proceeded to use his pis-j ! tol, but in shooting at Harris the bul let flew wide of the mark and struck" i Lonnie Mays in a vital place, from which wound she later dien. Cane Growers And Syrup Dealers Cairo. —A mass meeting of cans growers and syrup dealers of Georgia, Alabama and Florida will be held at! j Cairo at an early date for the pur* : pose of devising ways and means to : prevent a break in the prices of Geor-! gia cane syrup this season. Those well posted see indications that point! to a serious break in prices for syrup] and it is to prevent this that the meet-1 ing is called. Other matters of great , importance to the cane industry are :to be considered at this meeting, I among them being the Mosaic disease. ! In connection with this matter, it has ! been planned to have Doctor Bran dois or other representatives from the department of agriculture, present to discuss the disease and its 1 eradica tion. I'his is one of the most import ant movements for south Georgia and north Florida that ba« been launched in some time, and it is hoped that all sections will respond with large dele gations of farmers and business men. ——- New Committee Takes Office In Bibb Macon. —Macon’s memorial auditori- j um commission created by act of the recent legislature was formally organ- | ized with B.
