IN MOTHERHOOD
A woman needs all the strength possible to take good
care of her baby. The reflections of a married woman
are not pleasant if she
is delicate, run-down,
or over-worked. She
feels “played out.”
Her smile and good
spirits have taken
flight. It worries her
husband as well as
. herself.
This is the time to
build up her strength
and remove those
weaknesses or ailments
which are the seat of
her trouble.
Dr. Pierce’s Favor
ite Prescription regu
lates and promotes all
the proper functions
of womanhood, en
riches the blood, dis-
pels aches and pains, melancholia and nervousness,
brings refreshing sleep, restores health, and strength. It
overcomes those disorders and derangements of woman
hood. It makes weak women strong and sick w'omen
well. All druggists. Liquid or tablets.
COLUMBUS, GA.—“I was in a nervous and debilitated state
of health when one of my neighbors advised me to take Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. I can truly say that I have never
taken a medicine that strengthened and helped me as quickly as
‘Favorite Prescription.’ I have also taken the ‘Prescription’ during
the first trying months of expectancy with the same beneficial
result. I would recommend its use by all women who need a
special tonic.’’—MßS. SUSIE ROBINSON, 2949 Third Avenue.

NAVAL POLICY
CAUSES BRITAIN
MUCH CONCERN
BY EDWARD PRICE BEER
(Special Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, by Leased Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
LONDON, England. Dec. 9—Brit
ain’s future naval policy is flie sub
ject of lively debate just now. Capi
tal ships have their proponents and
their opponents. One school says,
“we must fight on the sea in the fu
ture as much as we have fought on
the sea in the past;” another school
says, “we must lift our navy off
the wetter in to the air.”
For the present the admiralty
stands pat for the capital ship as
the fundamental elefrient of fighting
strength at sea. All influential crit
ics agree that an “invincible navy,”
so far as Britain is concerned, is
identical with the national and im
perial security.
The admiralty is watching naval
developments throughout the world,
particularly in Japan and tne United
States. Those 'countries are recog
nized as friendly to Britain, yet this
country has no intention, with the
world disorganized as at present, to
allow its sea power to be outdis
tanced. w That British warship con
structio" would react expansively
to naval expansion abroad has been
pointed out frequently. Economy will
be closely considered but security
will be placed above economy and
there is every indication that the na
tion will be liberal with the navy.
British statesmen and ordinary
citizens would like to have a naval
understanding with the United
States looking to mutual safety and
mutual relief from heavy taxation.
They agree that British war ships
and American war ships should be
complementary of each £ther and
in no sense hostile. hold that
the empire and the republic thus
would escape a great and growing
burden and that a firm support
would be placed beneath the fabric
of world peace and prosperity.

A meeting of the trade was called
to consider the resolution. After
being thoroughly discussed by the

Determine Policy on
Naming Postmasters
Tha Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
623 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TILLEB
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—lt is ex
pected that a definite policy of ac
tion by the Republican majority will
be taken in the senate shortly on
presidential postmaster nominations,
which will include a large number of
Georgia appointments.
The attitude of the majority party
in the senate may forecast the possi
ble revocation of the executive order
of March 31, 1917, whereby first, sec
ond and third class postmasters
have been nominated as the result
of an examination by the civil serv
ice commission.
J. A. Crawford, a Republican, has
been appointed acting postmaster at
Dalton, Ga., as a result of making I
the highest mark on the examina- I
tion to fill the vacancy at Dalton. I
Mr. Crawford served as postmaster j
uncler the Republican administration .
prior to 1913. It is expected that I
his nomination will be sent to the ;
senate by President Wilson.

erection of a $300,000 Shrine build
ing in Charlotte as the home of

ple. The building committee, of

diately to dispose of the prelimi
naries and secure the site.

the memberhip of the temple has I
been increased by 800 during his ;
regime.

ty-five cents for meals is forecast
for Savannah soon by a leading res
tauranteur. A big slump in prices

ceived from other people. Colds are
infectious. Colds are not caused by
sitting in a draft, but the chilling
of the body wheih the draft produces
lower resistance and permits germs
to become active.
4—Q. Which senator has served
the longest?
A. The ranking- member of the
senate having had the longest con
tinuous service is Henry Cabot
Lodge, who took his seat first in
1893.
Q. How many spiritualist minis
ters and mediums are there?
A. In 1919 there were about 500
ministers and 1,500 public mediums
in the United States.
6Q. I’ve heard that the water
wheel in Burmah is a means of pun
ishment. What is this wheel?
A. The ancient method of which
you speak still survives at Ran
goon. Most of the cultivation be
ing done by irrigation, the convicts
are used to operate the water
wheels. These wheels are about 8
feet in diameter and 10 feet wide
with steps on which the convict
stands. Above the wheel is a heavy
log to which he is handcuffed.
Should he stop walking, his feet
would slip from under him and he
would be suspended from his hands.
7Q. How does the number of
telephones in the United States com
pare with the number in Europe?
A. All Europe has only one-third
of the number of telephones that
the United States has. For this
country there is a telephone to each
nine of the population.
8— Q. How big do the big trees of
California grow?
A. The Sequoia or redwood trees
often grow to a height of 250 feet.
They sometimes attend a diameter
of 15 feet.
9Q. What is tapioca made of?
A. Tapioca is made from the root
stock of the cassava, a starchy plant
grown in the West Indies, South
America and Africa.
10— Q. How did coffee get its
name?
A. Coffee derives its name from
kaffa in Abyssinia, in which country
it is believed that coffee trees origi
nated. The botanical name coffee
arabica was given it because it was
in Arabia that coffee was first cul
tivated and used as a beverage.

African Vulture
Not So Fierce
As He Appears
Si
One of the post-war immigrants
from foreign lands is the Eared
Vulture, late of Africa. This bird
is so called from the flaps of skin
on the sides of its head, which
are not really ears at all. The
Eared Vulture has formidable
beak and terrible claws, but will
attack a dead lion rather than
give battle to a live mouse.
PLAN A CONCERN
TO TAKE CARE OF
FOREIGN TRADE
CHICAGO, Dec. 9.—Leaders in in
dustry, finance and agriculture from
forty states, gathered here today to
form a $109,000,000 corporation to
finance foreign trade.
The corporation will be established
along lines approved by the Amer
ican Bankers’ association and au
thorized by the Edge act. Its object
Will be the “successful maintenance,
growth and development of Amer
ica’s foreign trade” as explained by
John S. Drum, San Francisco, presi
dent of the American Bankers’ asso
ciation, who called the meeting.
“This corporation will be distinctly
on national lines and will be pre
pared to render national service,”
said Drum today. “It will come into
being through the widest co-opera
tion and will be a soufee of strength
and assistance to agriculture, indus
try, commerce and finance and will
be helpful to all other foreign trade
organizations.’’
Drum said America is seeing its
foreign trade shut off because she
hasn’t the facilities needed for ex
tending secured credits.
“The amplification of these facili
ties on the basis of sound investment
in this country is the foundation
thought of the proposed foreign trade
financing,” Drum stated.
The new corporation is expected to
give special attention to furthering
trade with South America, according
to plans proposed, although every
great world market for America’s
products will receive attention.
The first meeting of the conference
will be held tomorrow. The final
session is expected Saturday.
