HAS BEEN MISSING
SINCE LAST MONDAY
Left Home With Month’s Pay
and Nothing Has Been
Heard From Him.
Since « o'clock Monday morning Mra.
Hoy Cook, who live* at 186 South For-
«yth-at.. haa not qeen or heard of her
husband, who left home at that time
with a month’* wages, about 868. In hi*
pocket*. There was no quarrel. They
have been married about two years
and there has never been a cloud In
the sky of their happiness. It I* for
this very reason that the wife and hi*
family are so worried about his disap
pearance.
Boy Cook Is an Atlanta boy, the sot
of T. E. Cook, a grocer In East Fair-
at HI* wife came from Birmingham,
but they were married in Charlotte,
N. C. They lived there about a year
and then returned to Atlanta.
Mr. Cook has been employed as a
night car checker and clerk at the In-
man Yards of the Southern railway. He
drew his pay check Saturday night.
Sunday night he did not work, but
went downtown early Monday morning
to cash hi* check. .Since he left the
house that morning he has not been
heard from.
Mrs. Cook has notified the police and
has made a round of all the hospitals,
but as yet she has been unable to find
a trace of the missing man.
Mr. Cook is about six feet tall, haa
brown eyes and dark hair, wears
glasses and 1* 29 year* old. When he
left home he wore a gray suit and a
black derby hat.
Mrs. Cook Is a pretty young woman
of about 21 years. She Is almost pros
trated with grief, and Is sure that
some foul play has been done, for she
says ahe and her husband had never
had the slightest disagreement, and
she knew of no reason why he shpuld
leave her. She can think of no one
who could have been prompted to In
jure him thru hatred, for, she says, he
did not have a- single enemy In the
world to her knowledge.

As a rule, one horse of any pair pull* most of the load.
Both horses are fed the same ration, and week in and week

Newspaper* are like horses—some pull, some don’t. The
horse that pulls the load doe* not alwayt get the credit, nor

In Atlanta The Georgian is the paper that pulls. If you
would have your advertisements seen by Atlanta people every
day, publish them in The Georgian, which has demonstrated
time end again its pulling powers.
Nothing besides success succeeds like Georgian wants.
