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. (Advt.) TxiE A'ii.AM'?. 1 l.i 'A JOI K\AL.

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.

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.
