T:iK ATLANTA OKOIKJTAN AND NEWS, TUESDAY, MAY fi, 19i;i. AFTER PART OF M ISS AGNES TINSLEY HARRISON, of Atlanta, who made local debut as pro fessional actress Monday night, Government Soon to Deposit Ad ditional $10,000,000—Munici pal Bonds as Security. Atlanta national banks are taking advantage to the full of charges being put into effect by the new Secretary of the Treasury. Secretary McAdoo has announced that the Government «oon will deposit $10,000,000 additional in the banka, lie announced at the same time that instead of requiring that deposits be covered dollar for dollar with Government 2s, he will accept municipal bonda under cer tain restriction as security for de posits. Both of these charges will operate to the benefit of Atlanta and the South in general. Government depositories here have put in application for a share of the $10,000,000. The money can he used to advantage in the South. Eastern banks, on the other hand, are not so anxious for additional Government funds since they will have to pay 2 i*er cent interest in future. Many Southern Applications. There are about 000 Government depositories in the United States. Of these, 300 have made application for ihe $10,000,000, and it is surmised, from the facts stated, that many of these applicants are in the South. As Atlanta banks understand the municipal bond restrictions, 30 per ient of the bonds they aro required to deposit with the Treasurer may be municipals, at 75 per cent of their I value. In other words, a bank hold ing $100,000 Government funds may put up $70,000 In Government 2s, and $40,000 in municipal bonds, yielding 4 1-2 or 5 per cent. By doing this, notwithstanding the payment of 2 per cent Interest on de posits, the transaction will yield a small profit In interest, besides possi ble profits from purchasing munici pal bonds chiefly, during periods of depression like the present, and real izing a protit on their rise in value. Government bonds cost a small pre mium, and never fluctuate in value. Opens Municipal Bond Market. The new ruling opens up a market for municipal bonds, too, in a quarter which was closed to Much issues be fore This does not amount to so much in Atlanta, with $500,000 Government deposits now. and a possible $000,000 when the additional $10,000,000 is al lotted, but for the nation, it amounts to considerable. Government deposits all over the nation will amount to $53,000,000, which will make a market for $ 16,430,- 000 in municipal bonds, if the deposi tories care to take advantage of it. Banks have found it profitable to handle postal savings deposits under a similar system. ENVOY LEISHMAN IS STILL PENNSYLVANIA RESIDENT PITTSBURG. May fi Judge R. A. MarFarlane has decided that John G. A. Welshman, United States Ambas- sador to Germany, is still a resident of Pennsylvania and made an order dissolving a writ of foreign attach ment to seize $70,000 Mr. Irishman has on deposit in banks in this city. The money is claimed as balance due on stock transactions carried on by Welshman in New' York last fall. Strong Fight Is Made on Legal Representation Because of Utterance at Macon. Sonic of i he members of the Geor gia Bankers Assoc lation hi* going to the convention In Macon this month prepared to do battle. JuK how much oat tic they will do depends on devel opments. but Indications are for a lively time. The fight will center around the ap pointment of a legal representative for the association. Orville Park, of Macon, is the pres ent legal representative. In a recent speech at a group meeting in Macon, he made a “bad break.” He suggest ed, Jocularly, he says, that bankers attempt to influence Legislators In favor of the new bank law' when the Legislators come seeking loans. The speech was reported, and caused a rumpus. Mr. Park sticks to his “all a Joke” explanation. But many of the bankers are not satis fied. They think a man of legal acu men sufficient to advise the bankers should be shrew d enough not to make Ill-timed and ill-considered jests*. Mr. Park does not want to quit un der fire. Hence the probability of warfare. The position of legal representative pays a salary merely nominal, but the appointment brings considerable legal business to the holder of the title, and is valuable in that way.

Regular bowel Movement ] from Childhood on Fore- | stalls Future Serious Diseases YY'e cannot all start life with the advantages of money, but every child born is entitled to the heri tage of good health. Through un fortunate ignorance or careless ness in the feeding of a baby its tiny stomach may become de ranged. The disorder spreads to the bowels and before the mother realizes it the two chief organs on which the infant’s comfort and health depend are causing it great suffering. If the condition is al lowed to continue grave ailments often result. There is, however, no occasion for alarm, and the sensible thing to do—but it should be done in stantly—is to give the baby a small dose of a mild laxative-tonic. In the opinion of a great many peo ple, among them such well-known persons as the parents of Dixie Dudley, Magnolia. Ark., the prop er remedy is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. Mrs. Earl Dudley writes: “Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin Is the best medidine I ever used. It cured my baby of flatulency colic when the doctors failed; it cured my husband of constipation. My home shall never be without Syrup Pepsin.” It is a pleasant-tasting laxative, which every person likes. It is mild, non-griping, and con tains that most excellent of all digestants, pepsin. This' remedy is especially intend ed for infants, children, women, old people and all others to whom harsh cathartics, salt waters, pills, etc., are distressing.

It can be ob tained of any druggist at fifty cents or one dollar a bottle, the latter being the size bought by families who already know its value. Re sults are always guaranteed or money will be refunded.
