gan—Your Druggist
Has It
Really, isn’t it foolish to be
handicapped for weeks in the spring,
just because your blood is slug
gish? . ,
The glorious Spring days! You
ought enjoy them, instead of feel
ing unhappy and half asleep—just
too tired out for anything. You
ought to be finding new vigor for
your work in the Spring* air—“pep,”
enthusiasm, happiness!
But you can’t, because your blood
is clogged with poisons. For long
months it has had too little fresh
air and has fought off many germs.
And it now has heat-making prop
erties that are not needed in warm
weather.
Don’s work under a handicap,
when it isn't necessary at all. Clear
up your sluggish blood. Give it
help. Get some of that famous blood
purifier and tonic, Pepto-Mangan.
Pepto-Mangan is used by physi
cians everywhere. You can buy it
at any drug store in either liquid
or tablet form, just as you prefer.
There’s no difference in medicinal
value.
Make certain that you get the gen
uine Pepto-Mangan. Ask for “Gude’s”
Pepto-Mangan, and see that the
name “Gude’s” is on the package.

Military Occupation of
Constantinople Developing
Complications in Turkey
CONSTANTINOPLE, March 29.
(By the Associated Press.) —Con-
stantinople is as much isolated from
Asiatic Turkey as if the Atlantic
ocean separated them. Railway
communication between the Bosporus
and the interior has been cut by de
tachments of British, who burned
f ' large bridge south of Bilejik af
ter getting out all their Indian
troops, which had been guarding the
line. British headquarters are at Is
mid and the protective area is re
st"icted largely to districts within
tange of the naval guns.
Anatolia is the source of the food
supply of Constantinople and con
sequently the nri« es of meat and veg
etables have already doubled. The
huge profit-taking is not checked by
-.lie high commissioners, who main
tain the fiction that the Turkish gov
ernment is functioning.
Communication virtually is suspend
ed and the allied newspapers are fill
ed W’ith statements that the nation
alist movement has been nipped in
the bud. News which reaches Con
stantinople through couriers from An
atolia and passengers from the va
rious Black sea and Mediterranean
ports does not support such state
ments. Mustapha Kemal Pasha, the
nationalist leader, has called a con
gress to meet in Angora, with five
representatives for each V ilayet.
General mobilization has been ordered
and all military munitions ordered
rbmoved from the sea coast.
Definite statements have been
made by Mustapha Kemal that he
will not recognize the sultan’s orders.
At Sivas, Anasia, ' Tokat, Samsoun
and many other places there is
trench digging and other prepara
tions for defense. Captain Forbes,
the British passport control officer,
has been seized at Anasia and t" I 'en
to Sivas. and it is feared that taking
of allied hostages may become gen-

mission, upon Halatig in an effort
to relieve the Christians threatened
there. A message from Aintag, sent
two weeks ago.and just received in
Constantinople, says the Moslems
will not sell food to 25,000 Armenians
there. Turkish leaders have arrived
ip Aintag and it is feared another
great massacre may occur.
British. Blamed
The Italians and French are both
critical of. the h-llied occupation of
Constantinople, which they blame
entirely upon the British and de
clare that if the 2,000,000 unprotect
ed Christians in Asia Minor are
killed fey Moslems enraged by the
seizure of Constantinople, it will be
the fault of the British move.
' So far there has been no fighting
of any consequence in Thrace, but
there is great uncertainty as to what
will happen if the French complete
their evacuation as planned and the
Greeks occupy the region. The
French troops are unwilling to fight
in > Thrace, declaring Urey will not
take territory for the Bulgarians and
Greeks.
A delegation of four members of
the Turkish chamber are en route to
Angora for a conference with Mus

BANKERS’ SUIT ON
PAR CLEARANCE
ORDER DISMISSED
SAVANNAH, Ga., April 3. —Judge
Beverly D. Evans,j of the federal
court, today refused to remand to
the state courts the case of the
Georgia Country Bankers’ associa
tion against the Federal Reserve
Brink of Atlanta, and dismissed the
bill.
The case was one in which the
country banks sought to prohibit the
federal reserve bank from putting
into effect its order to enforce the
country banks to clear their paper
at par. The case first came up in
the Fulton county superior court, and
was later taken to the federal courts.
The country bahks then petitioned
to have the case remanded, alleg
ing that the matter was one for
state, and not federal, courts to han
dle. They also alleged Conspiracy.
Commenting on the decision to re
mand, Judge Evans said that the
general object of the federal reserve
system would be thwarted if the
reserve banks could sue and z be sued
under the same conditions as na
tional banking associations. On the
motion to dismiss the bill, the de
cision states that depriving . the
banks of part of the revenues they
previously enjoyed is not unlawful,
and that the allegations of con
spiracy are lacking in essential feat
ures to charge an actionable wrong.
Paulding County Barmer
Sells 80-Cent Cotton
DALLAS, Ga., April 3.—Warner
Bone recently sold three bales of
long staple cotton, grown last year
on his farm near here, at 80 cents
a pound. This is a high record price
for cotton grown in this section, and
at the same time demonstrates that
long staple cotton can be success
fully produced in north. Georgia.
Mr. Bone is an advocate of diversi
fied and intensified farming. He
produced 300 bushels of sweet pota
toes on one acre last year, made a
large crop of corn, sold eighteen
bales of cotton, and recently mar
keted nine pigs at $lO each.
in ten days. The delegation is com
posed entirely of nationalists, but
they are asserted to be anxious to
persuade the Nationalist leaders that
the sultan will not support them and
the movement cannot succeed unless
modified.
While the British were repairing
the bridge near Bilejik, Nationalists
directed a heavy machine gun fire
upon them, but their aim was so
bad there was only one casualty.
After crossing the bridge the Brit
'ish battalions burned it to check
the Nationalists, whose game seems
to be to force the allied troops to
pursue them into the interior, and
keep up guerilla warfare, rather than
take the offensive.

WAX IMPRESSION
OF OLD GEORGIA
SEAL IS FOUND
A "wax impression of the great seal
of the state of Georgia as used in
1777 has been found in)the archives
of the state department! As far as
known this is the only pnpresslon of
the seal, which was used for twelve
years and destroyed in 1799, when
the present seal was designed. Sec
retary of State S. G. McLendon,
while searching in the archives,
found a piece of wax bearing an odd
impression and on close examination
it proved to be an imprint of the
ancient seal.
The former great seal of Georgia,
as described in an article of the
state constitution of 1777, land
searched out by Mr. McLendon, fol
lows:
"LVII—The great seal of this state
shall have the following device: On
one side a scroll, whereon shall be
engraved, ‘The Constitution of the
State of Georgia;’ and the motto,
‘Pro Bono Publico;’ on the other side
an elegant house and other buildings,
fields of corn and meadows covered
with sheep and cattle; a river run
ning through the same, with a ship
under full sail: and tile motto, ’Deus
Nobis Haec Otia Fecit.’ ”
This was changed by the constitu
tion of 1799 as follows:
“And be it further enacted by the
authority aforesaid, that the device
shall be as follows: On the one side
a view of the seashore with a ship
bearing the flag of the United States,
riding at anchor near a wharf, re
ceiving on board hogsheads of to
bacco and bales of cotton, emblem
atic of the exports of this state; at
a small distance a boat landing from
the interior of the state with hogs
heads, etc,, on board, representing
her internal traffic; in the back part
of the same side, a man in the act
of plowing; and at a small distance
a flock of sheep in different postures
shaded by a flourishing tree. The
motto on this side, ‘Agriculture and
Commerce 1799.’ That the other side
contain three pillars supporting an
arch, with the word ‘Constitution*
engraven within the same, emblem
atic of the constitution supported by
the three departments of govern
ment, viz: the legislative, judicial
and/executive, the first pillar to have
engraven on its face ‘Wisdom,’ the
second ‘Justice,’ and the third ‘Mod
eration;’ on the right of the last pil
lar a man standing with a drawn
sword, representing the aid of the*
military in defense of the constitu

1799.’ ” 4
Woman Advocates of
Free Ireland Stop
Picketing Embassy
WASHINGTON, April 2.—Picket
ing o fthe British embassy by wom
en advocates of an Irish republic
was abandoned today. Mrs. T. K.
Corliss, New York, leader of the
pickets, denied the demonstration
was called off at the request of the
state department, which late yester
day announced that the picketing
was “deeply regretted” and that “ef
fective measures” would be taken to
prevent conduct deemed a breach of
courtesy to representatives of a
friendly power.
Mrs. Corliss said last night that
the demonstrations would continue
at tfie embassy and at the capitol
“indefinitely.”
"We don’t want violence, but we
are going to wake up this sleepy
congress and this backsliding gov
ernment to America’s obligation,”
she said.
This morning, however, Mrs. Cor
liss said there would be no more
picketing, and that she believed the
object of the demonstration had al
ready been accomplished.
The real object, she aaid, was to
have newspapers all over the coun
try print her charge that the British
planned an Irish massacre, beginning
Monday.
Turkish Nationalists

LONDON, April 2.—Ada Bazar, a

according to a Constantinople dis
patch to the Exchange Telegraph
company.
tory of this institution was built
with copper nails, copper window
shutter fasteners were used, and
copper heating gas stoves are in use.
The absence of iron facilitates the
standardization of magnetic instru
ments.
Perhaps for the first time in the
United States concrete was reinforc
ed with brass instead of iron rods
in the construction of a recently
completed experiment building, de
signed especially for magnetic re
searches. Tunnels used in connect
ing two buildings convey electricity
and steam for lighting and heating
purposes through brass pipes, the
shops of the institution now being
engaged in developing copper radia
tors.
Without a suitable market from
which to purchase its instruments,
the department of terrestial mag
netism operates its own instrument
making shop. It is essential that
the observation instruments ba made
of the purest brass, thus obviating
magnetic impurities.
HARBOR STRIKE
MAYBEBROUGHT
TO CONFERENCE
NEW YORK, April 3. —The strike
of New York harbor workers may be
brought before a general conference
of strikers and the General Mana
gers’ asociation of the railroads, as
the outcome of a conference late to
day between union leaders and offi
cials of the New York Central rail
road, it was indicated tonight.
"‘Nothing definite” was accomplished
at this, meeting, it was announced,
but labor leaders expressed them
selves favorably toward such a con
ference.
Although the railroads placed a
general embargo on export freight
through New York today, officials of
the roads said there was no reason
to fear a food shortage. If it should
become necessary, food shipments to
the city could' be brought across the
river at Poughkeepsie, they said,
avoiding the trans-harbor handling.
Union leaders tonight asserted that
the Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men “stands ready to join them in
the strike,” upon the assumption that
loss of the eight-hour day demanded
by the marine workers would also
deprive the railroad workers of the
eight-hour day.

The Kiwanis club held a very
enthusiastic and interesting meeting
at White’s place Friday noon. The
club was addressed by Prof. F. F.

the public schools of the city. The
city has grown to such an extent
that all the schools have been fillod

larger and better school buildings.
Daughter Brings Joy
To Former Kaiser
AMERONGEN, April 3.—(By the

former German emperor’s way of

Duchess of Brunswick, Wilhelm has
not sawed a single tree. Both he
and the former empress have grown
much calmer, and are certainly en
joying the visit of their only daugh
ter. The relations between the par
ents and daughter are very intimate,
as they always were in the old days,
and the three often are seen stroll
ing together in the garden.
On Thursday the rector from
Zeist came to the castle and reli

were the first services since the out

Experts Discover Plant
Use Dependent Upon
Light, Not Temperature
WASHINGTON, April 3. —Govern-
ment agricultural experts have dis-1
covered that plant life seems to de- I
pend on light rather than temper-1
ature for nourishment and may be
controlled by regulating the hours
of light and darkness.
The principle is revolutionary, but
it rests on actual experiments, in
which it was demonstrated that
plants subjected to alternate periods
of light and darkness in carefully
determined proportions could be
brought to maturity at any time of
year.
“Greenhouse experiments,” says
an announcement by the department
of agriculture, ‘prove that the flower
ing and fruiting period of practi
cally any plant can be made to take
place at any time of year by dark
ening the greenhouses in the morn
ing and evening if the day is too
long, or by lengthening the day by
artificial light if the day is too
short.
“Spring flowers and spring crops
happen to be spring flowers and
spring crops because the days at the
season of their flowering and fruit
ing have the proper number of hours
of daylight.’’
The discovery may be of the high
est importance in the future plan
ning of cropping systems for dif
ferent regions. Eventually it may
be found, according to W. W. Gar
ner and H. A. Allard, scientists in
the bureau of plant industry, who
conducted exhaustive experiments,
that the animal organism also is
capable of responding to 'the stimu
lus of certain day lengths. They be
lieve that the migration of birds
may be an illustration on the ground
that direct response to such a stim
ulus would be more in line with
modern biological teachings than
theories which assume that birds go
south as a matter of instinct.
Experiments were conducted with
a large variety of plants. It was
shown conclusively that too little
“sleep,” or in other words, too many
hours of daylight, would prevent
many plants from reaching the flow
ering and fruiting stage.
Too Much Daylight
It was also found that plants
would riot reproduce except when ex
posed to a favorable length of day.
although too much daylight for
flowering and fruiting might stimu
late profuse vegetative growth. A
length of day favorable both to re
production and growth ' results in
the “ever-bearing” type of fruits.
By employing dark chambers, the
scientists shortened or lengthened
the life cycle of plants and forced
some of them to compete two
cycles in one season. Violets, which
T. urally bloom only during the
comparatively short days of spring,
when covered with light proof boxes
for a time were made to bloom again
d ing the ” summer. Biloxi soy
beans exposed to the light for only
five hours a day flowered nearly
three months earlier than plants left
in the Jight all day, but attained only
about one-eighth the height.
Temperature appeared to exert no
inbuence in the tests. A striking il
lustration of the relative unimport
ance of temperature was given in
the fact that plants kept in the dark
for a part of the day, underwent in
midsummer the changes that in
nature come in the fall and that
heretofore have been attributed to
lower temperatures. This was true
even when the dark hours registered
a higher temperature than the out
side atmosphere.
Iris kept in artificial light for 18
hours a day bloomed in two months,

suppressed by a day too long or too
short. This new principle undoubt
edly explains the erratic behavior
which has been observed with many
crops when they are shifted to dif
ferent latitudes.”
The new principle was sail to ex
plain why May plants grow most
luxuriantly near the northern limit
of their range, where the long day
permits maximum vegetative growth
before the short day intervenes to
start reproduction.
Another American
Believed Wounded in
Mexican Oil Fields
WASHINGTON, April 3.—Alexan
der Oberg, an employe of the Inter
national Petroleum company, who
was stabbed and probably fatally in
jured at Amatlan, Mexico, March 30,
at the time H. A. Jafredson, an
American, was killed, is believed to
be an American, although the state
department has no definite informa
tion. There is no record of a pass
port and the company reported it did
not know his nationality.
It has been stated, however, that
only American drillers were employ
ed in the Tampico fields, and both
men were drillers. The department
has asked Consul pawson, at Tam
pico, to report on Oberg’s nationality
and condition.
