Nasty Drug Salivates, Makes
You Sick and You Lose a
Day’s Work,
Every druggist in town—your drug
gist and everybody’s druggist--has
noticed a great falling off in the sale
of calomel They all give the same
reason. Dodson’s Liver Tone is tak
ing its place.
“Calomel is dangerous, and people
know it, while Dodson’s Liver Tone is
perfectly safe and gives better re
sults,’’ said a prominent local drug
gist. Dodson’s Liver Tone is person
ally guaranteed by every druggist who
cells it. A large bottle costs 50 cents,
and if it fails to give easy relief in
every case of liver sluggishness and
constipation you have only td ask for
your money back.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pleasant-
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children apd adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake up
feeling flne; no biliousness, sick head
ache, acid stomach or constipated
bowels. It doesn’t gripe or cause in
convenience all the next day like vio
lent caJomel. Take a dose of calomel
to-day and to-morrow you will feel
weak, sick and nauseated. Don’t lose
a day’s work! Take Dodson’s Liver
Tone instead, and feel fine, full of
vigor and ambition.—Advertisement.

Young Lawyers Told
To Study Bankruptcy
It behooves young lawyers to study
the bankruptcy laws and their appli
cation, in the opinion of J. H. Porter,
an Atlanta attprney, who addressed
the Atlanta Law School Thursday.
The speaker said the amount of bank
ruptcy practice in Atlanta and the
country generally has recently in
creased, and likely will continue to
increase. Bankruptcy administration
he said, involves nice points which re
quire experience and discernment.
“The success which the law has had
in its pratical application,” declared
Mr. Porter, “has caused a large part
of criticism against to die down, and
it is generally recognized now as a
permanent law.”
His Fighter Got Draw
He Attacks Neighbor
Lunsford King must explain to Re

the aforesaid lust of battle very Infec

bottle at a man near by after an ar
gument over the respective merits of
two fighters.
King, 18 years old. is the son of the
late “Caller'’ King, a well-known fig
ure in Atlanta baseball. He had been
backing ‘Battling Budd” in the bout
with Kid Young, and when the ref
eree announced a draw, King’s neigh
bor began taunting. Then it was that
the bottle flew.

i
Big Firm’s Assets Said To Be
More Than Double Liabilities,
Exclusive of Mortgages.
NEW YORK, April The J B.
Greenhut Company, dry goods house,
was placed in the hands of receivers
to-day, when Walter C. Noyes and
William A. Marble were appointed by
Federal Judge Hand. The bill of
complaint was brought by the Mon
mouth Securities Company. The com
pany consented to the receivership.
The bonds of the receivers were fixed
at $100,000 each.
In complaint the Monmouth Se
curities Company states that it is a
creditor to the amount of over $200,-
000. Rose & Paskus, attorneys for
the Greenhut Company, filed the con
sent of the company to the receiver
ship.
The complaint sets forth that the
assets of the company are $7,466,419
and liabilities $3,513,060, exclusive of
underlying mortgages. There are two
mortgages on the company’s build
ings. one for $1,750,000 and the other
for $1,200,000.
Samuel S. Meyers, attorney for
about 100 creditors, said their claims
aggregated between $500,000 and
$1,000,000. He stated that the lia
bilities of the company would be $12,-
000,000, with assets of $6,000,000, ex
clusive of real estate.
Benjamin J Paskus, of Rose & Pas
kus, representing the Greenhut com
pany, said that unquestionably the
business of the company would reor
ganize and continue. He said the to
tal liabilities were about $3,500,000,
and that the company had outstand
ing $6,000,000 in bonds. He pointed
out that the company’s liabilities were
covered by quick assets of $4,000,000,
Including merchandise and other ac
counts outstanding.
A bank formerly operated by the
company had been virtually liqui
dated, probably about $5,000,000 hav
ing been paid out last year. The bonds
outstanding are held by the public In
this country and abroad and by banks.
It is estimated that banks are in
terested to the amount of $300,000.
It is estimated that the company
did a business last year of $13,000,000.
The J. B. Greenhut Company was
incorporated under the laws of the
State of New York November 6. 1910.
The company was a consolidation of
Greenhut & Co. and the Sieeel-Coop-
er Company. The name of the con
solidated company originally was the
Greenhut-Siegel-Cooper Company,
but the name was changed to the
present title In May, 1914 The com
pany had an outstanding issue of
$6,000,000 capital stock and $6,000,000
sinking fund 6 per cent bonds.
New Pep in
Ad Men
“The object of Pepper,” announced
Pepper, upon making Its bow Friday,
"is to inject a little spice into the ac
tivities of the Atlanta Ad Men’s Club.”
Which seems to be mixing things up
a bit, but isn’t. Pepper is Just what
it says it is, a publication to speed up
and properly exploit the achieve
ments, ideals and ultimate goal of the
Ad Men. Its first number came Fri
day, with the announcement that Jo
seph H. Atchison, chairman of the
club's protection committee, is editor.
Among the contents of the initial
number is the interesting announce
ment that Elbert Hubbard, the Sage
of East Aurora, is coming soon to ad
dress the club. There is a history of
the life and works of the Atlanta Ad
Men’s Club, a discussion of the club’s
new educational committee and per
sonal quips and Jests that are calcu
lated to result in laughs or fights.
Here Is a sarqple, told about Julian
Boehm, vice president of the club:-

Manufacturers To Be Heard in
Government Suit Against Corn
Products Refining Company,
Important testimony in the Gov
ernment's anti-trust suit aguinst the
Corn Prodqcts Reflnir^ Company,
mammoth corporation formerly con
trolling the glucose industry' of the
United States, will be taken Monday
morning at 9 o’clock in room No. 338
of the Federal Building, by Rowland
W. Phillips, of Washington, special
examiner appointed by the Depart
ment of Justice. The witnesses will
be D. R. Wilder, head of the D. R.
Wilder (Syrup) Manufacturing Com
pany; W, J. Peabody, secretary;
Brooks Morgan, vice president of the
Frank 1C. Block Company, manufac
turers of candles; J. L>. Blakeley and
Homer H. Prater, of Atlanta, and P. J.
I Williams, of Columbus.
The Government will seek to show
that the corporation adopted trust
methods in keeping down competition
In Georgia, one of the methods being
to inaugurate a profit-sharing or re
bate system. The Wilder Company,
desiring to quit the connection, de
ducted its rebate. $2,200, from a bill,
according to their oontentlon. The
glucose company refused to accept
the settlement and went to court. It
won in the lower courts and finally in
the United Htat^e Supreme Court.
A point made by the Wilder Com
pany was that the refining company
was violating the anti-trust law and
could not collect, but the court took a
different view.
The action by the Federal Govern
ment follows that suit closely and it Is
understood Mr. Wilder's testimony
will be given considerable attention.
That concern started patronising the
American Maize Products Company, a
competitor of the Corn Products Re
fining Company, as did others. The
corn concern le reported to be con
trolled by men who control the Stan
dard Oil Company, and the maize
concern by men who control the Royal
Baking Powder Company.

MT. and Mrs. Elijah G. Whitaker,
of Oakland City, left Atlanta early
Friday for a wedding trip. Out in
Oakland City there was hardly any
body who knew there was a Mrs.
Whitaker or that there had been a
wedding Mr. and Mrs, Whitaker, you
will admit, are clever,
Thursday Mrs. Whitaker was mere
ly Miss Kate Lou Hmlth, very much
in love. Hhe and her affianced, who
is a druggist In Oakland City, felt
that the fuss and feathers of a wed
ding according to Hoyle would he too
much of a bother, and that their
friends might prove too gay and Jest-
ful, and that it was their own affair,
anyhow’.
fio they decided to pilot the good
ship Romance into uncharted waters,
and signed up Dr. A. (\ Ward, of the
Oakland City Baptist Church, to help
them The young druggist and Miss
8mlth went for a stroll Thursday
night about 10 o’clock. In the shad
ows of the church door waited Dr.
Ward. In Mr. Whitaker’s pockets
were the ring and fhe license. Thfcy
slipped into the dark church togeth
er, the three of them.
Other people were passing, and tbs
couple wanted to keep it a real secret.
No lights were lighted, and with only
the glimmer of a fitful street light
through the window to guide them,
the ceremony wo* said.
And until they rend this there are
a great many people in Oakland City
who won’t know anything about it
Itchy Salt Rheum

The disease will continue to annoy, paia
and perhaps agonize, until the blood
has been purified and the general health
improved.
Ask your druggist for Hood’s Sar

remedy, ft has given perfect satisfac

The continued demand on the
Emergency Association for unem
ployed women to fill all sorts of post- i
tions and the good reports received '
by Miss Susan McClelland of the w’ork |

has been closed. Anyone wishing
work to do or having wor kto be done j
may apply to Miss McClelland at I
headquarters at No. 19 Auburn ave- I

Policeman George C. Sauers was shot
and fatally injured.
Corra Harris, known and loved by
her fellow Georgians as a writer of
the keenest insight into the customs
and foibles of her own people and of
mankind in general, is to make her
bow this summer as a lecturer. And.
as it should be, she will appear for
the first time in Atlanta, among her
friends.
Mrs. Helen C. Plane, honorary
president of the United Daughters of
the Confederacy, asked Mrs. Harris,
in behalf of Atlanta Chapter, U. D. C.,
to talk in Atlanta. It is likely that
the talk will concern impressions of
the European war, which Mrs. Harris
viewed as one of the few women war
correspondents. At present Mrs. Har.
ris is at her secluded home. “The
Pines,” near Pine Log, working on
stories which will keep her busy for
two months. It Is after that time that
the projected lecture will be given.
