BABY'S TERRIBLE
SKIN HUMOR CURED
Milk Crust Formed a Solid Scab,
But Resinol Cured in Four Days.
Detroit. June 21, 1913.—“About a
year ago my two-months-old baby
was troubled with what they call
milk-cruets. The lower part of
her body was a mass of sores It
began with small pimples, then
they turned to one whole scab. The
scab would break open and then It
would bleed. She suffered much,
as she cried night and day. For
one month I tried everything—all
kinds of salves, but without relief,
until I sent for a sample of Resinol
Ointment and Resinol Soap. Upon
the first application I noticed a
change, and after four days my
baby was entirely cured. 1 can
not praise your remedies too high
ly, and recommend them to all my
friends.” (Signed) Mrs. Henry
Mosher. 154 Lewerenz Ave.
You need never hesitate to use
Resinol. It is a doctor’s prescrip
tion. that has been used by other
physicians for eighteen years in
the treatment of eczema, ring
worm. pimples, and all sorts of
skin affections. It contains abso
lutely nothing that could Injure

“Gee, ain’t it a peach! Couldn’t I speed some if I had ontof
them! How many are you going to give away, Mister?” Tlnse
are some of the remarks to be heard around The Georgian Offie
where the big red “Georgian Flyer” is on exhibition—the oie
just like The Hearst’s Sunday American and Atlanta Georgiai
will give to each boy and girl who secures forty new subscrip
tions to the paper before October 1.
Theie are many earnest workers and the subscriptions ari
coming fast. It would only be a wild guess now to say who wil.
win the first fifteen cars and receive the Charter Membership
Certificates to the Atlanta Pedalmobile Racing Club. These Cer-*
tificates will entitle the holder to compete in any or all races and
events to be held in the near future.
Pedalmobile Clubs are to be found in many of the large
cities, having been promoted by some of the largest and best
newspapers in the country. This sort of sport may be r\ew T in At
lanta, but in many particulars the Pedalmobile races are to the
children what the Auto races are to the grown-ups. In fact, they
are handled a good deal on the same order and are interesting
to the parents as well as the children.
' These little machines are not to be confined to pleasure
alone, but can be put to good use in many different ways. In
some cities carrier boys who have won Pedalmobiles may be seen
distributing their papers in them. All these cars are well-made
and serviceable and will surely gladden the heart of any boy or
girl who is fortunate enough to win one.
These ears are now on exhibition in the window of O. C.
Polk Dry Goods Store, 29 South Gordon Street; South Pryor Ice
Cream Parlor, 353 South Pryor Street, and Imperial Tire and
Tube Company, 349 Peachtree Street. While attending the Odd-
and-Ends Sale at Polk’s Dry Goods Company, be sure to notice
the “Georgian Flyer” in the window.
OUTSIDE WORKERS.
A number of boys and girls outside of the city of Atlanta
have sent in their application blanks and are now working earn
estly to obtain one of the handsome little cars. The Pedalmobile
man will be glad to send subscription blanks to more honest hust
lers who would like to own a Pedalmobile.
Just fill out the application blank below and full particu
lars will be mailed you at once.
