East Lake Woman Was in
Wretched Health for Years.
Now Well and Happy
Again.
“Honestly, my wife doesn’t look like
the same woman since 1 got this Tan
lac for her. She has used three bot
tles of it now, and already has galned
fifteen pounds,” said J. W. Clay, the
well-known dairyman, who lives at
East Lake, a few miles from Atlanta
“For years,” continued Mr. Clay,
“my wife has suffered from a very
bad &tomach trouble, and off and on
ehe would have spells of colic which
caused her to suffer agony. The pe
culiar thing about her case was she
seemed to be hungry all the time, but
e£he couldn’'t eat anything but a lit
tle milk and bread or the very lightest
kind of diet without bad after-effects,
Whenever she did eat anything in the
way of solid food, the pains in her
stomach would almost draw her into
a knot.
“This trouble made her so nervous
she would almost dread to see night
come, for she couldn't sleep—about
one or two hours a night would be
about as much sleep as she would
ever get,
“l never saw a person suffer like
she did from indigestion. Sometimes
she would have gas on her stomach
80 bad she could hardly get her
breath. At other times she would
have dizzy spells and sick headaches
that would last for hours. This trou
ble pulled her down terribly, and she
lost rapidly in weight, and didn’t
seem to have much strength,
“l tried nearly everything in the
way of medicines, but it just seemed
like nothing would give her any re
llef. A short time ago my brother
was telllng us about Tanlac and
about how much good it did him, and
begged my wife to try it, Of course,
I had heard a lot of talk about it, so
1 got a bottle and put her on it right
away.
“Well. gentlemen, here is one medi
cine that will do just what they say
it will do. She began to eat heartily
end sleep well right from the start,
She doesn't have gas on her stomach
any more after eating, and she
doesn't suffer any more with head
aches or dizzy spells. In fact, so far
as | can see, she is about as well as
anybody.
“No wonder she is gaining in
weight, because she just eats any
thing she wants. She even eats such
things as cabbage and onions ang
pork and all kinds of vegetables an
meats. Another thing, she has gained
her strength, too, and does her house
hold work without any trouble, and
that is something she couldn't do be
fore she began taking Tanlac.”

Drink Glass of Hot Water Beforel
Breakfast to Wash Out
Poisons.
To see the tinge of healthy bloom 'n
your face, to see your skin get clearer
and clearer, to wake up without a
headache, backache, coated tongue or
% nasty breath—in fact, to feel your
best, day in and day out—just try in
side-bathing every morning for one
week.
Before breakfast each day drink a
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it
as a harmless means of washing from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowe!s
the previous day's indigestible waste,
sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
alimentary canal before putting more
food into the'stomach. The action of
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
vigorating. It cleans out all the sour
fermentations, gases and acidity and
glves one a splendid appetite for
breakfast.
A quarter pound of limestone phos
phate will cost very little at the drug
store, but is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, sweetens and freshens (h»
skin, so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the blood and inter
nal organs. Those who are subject to
constipation, bilious attacks, acid
stomach, rheumatic twinges, also
those whose skin is sallow and com- |
plexion pallid, are assured that 'vnr‘{
week of inside-bathing will have them
both looking and feeling better ‘n
every way.—Advertisement.

Several Thousand Atlanta Moth
i
' ers Hear Talks at Various City
School Buildings.
Several thousand Atlanta mothers
and quite a few fathers gathered
Wednesday afetrnoon at their neareast
schiool building and heard prominent
physicians give plain facts and helpful
hints about how to raise babies.
It was a part of the celebration of
“Baby Week,” being observed all over
the country., The local observance
was under the direction of the public
health committee and the Federation
of Women's Clubs, of which Dr. Eliza
beth Broach is chairman. The best
physicians in Atlanta gave their time
and expert knowledge for the lectures,
Dr. C. C. Aven heading the commitice
which secured the lecturers.
There were no bables in evidence
Wednesday or on any day of “Baby
Week.” The Better Bables' Show last
fall did the work it was expected to
do by arousing increased interest in
the difference between sick babies and
weli ones. This week is for the par
ents—to teach them how to keep their
children strong and healthy, as every
normal baby should be, and will if he
is given a chance.
There were twenty speakers on the
school programs, but many more
schools than that were represented,
for several had clubbed together in
many instances. The parent-teacher
associations in several neighborhoods
Joined enthusiastically in the move
ment,
On Friday night a lecture will be de
livered to mothers in the mill district.
On the same night Dr, Broach will ad
dress the nurses at the Atlanta Childs’
Home, giving the first of her series of
“Mothercraft” lectures. There will he
a number of other lectures and ad
dresses in colleges and private schools.

perhaps several of them, will be the
next step undertaken by the Federa
tion of Clubs, with the help of the city
health department. It is preposed to
open stations where pure certified
milk may be obtained at a reasonable
price, as in New York and other cities,
and in cases where mothers are un
able to purchase it they will he sup
pllied without cost,
The influence of the “Baby Week"”
movement has spread to thé negroes
of Atlanta, and {s being taken up by
the settlement workers of that race,
several of whom have done excellent
work. A negro baby contest and show

Pennsylvania Road
.
Officials Depart
Atlanta railroad circles Wednesday
bade farewell to two Pennsylvania
Rallroad officials who are traveling
through the South in the interest of
their company. They are W. W. Rich
ardson, general passenger agent, with‘
headquarters in Pittsburg, and George
‘\\'. Weedon, of Cincinnati, Ohio, his
assistant.
“When the steel business booms, as
it is doing, general business condi
tions are always good,” said Mr. Rich
ardson before his departure for Jack
sonville. “There are few idle cars of
any kind on the trunk railroads and
traffic is very brisk.”

5 Bidding for Job as
Park ancessionaire
Atlanta is to hrave a new park con
cessionaire, as Charles L. Chosewood,
the man who has sold ice cream and
candies in the parks for a number of
years, has been caught by the lure of
Hopewell, Va,, and won't ask for his
contract to be renewed. Five bids for
the concessions were received by the
Park Commission Tuesdgy afternoon.
Action on them probably will be taken
at the next meeting.
A committee of the board was ap
pointed to see if a new automobile
could be purchased for the general
manager. It was stated that the play
grounds would not be opened this
year until June 1.

J. E. Hunnicutt, vice president of
the Strand Theater, on Peachtree

Theater for the next five years and

being made for remodeling the first
floor and foyer.

€€Y SEE in the paper,” re
l marked the Colonel, “that
Mayor Woodward is think
ing about vetoing the ordinance
changing the 1 .mes of some of
our streets. The Mayor believes
these tributes to great and good
men of the past should be pre
served, and I think he is right.”
“It depends on the name and
the street and other things,” said
the Judge. “It isn't safe to gen
eralize.”
“Why, I knew a man out in the
suburbs who hustled for eleven
vears to build up his neighbor
hood and sell out his land at a
profit,” said the Colonel, “He
opened a street right through his
tract and gave it to the city,
stipulating only that the city
should grade it, pave it and name
it for him. Then' he sold off all
the lots fronting on it, and made
enough money to buy him a
home in Southern California,
where he moved. And now the
city has gone and changed the
name to Geranium plaza, or some
thing like that.”
“Cruel ingratitude,” said the
Judge. “But when a man is namad
Scruggs or Jinks or Boggs, or
some other euphonious patro
nymie, I'll be hanged if I see why
a street should be eternally
damned by having his name hung
on it. That's one reason there
are so few street signs in the
suburban districts. The resi
dents tear them down for fear
somebody will see them.”
“But that doesn’t apply to all of
them,” remonstrated the Colonel.
“We used to have many streets
named for famous pioneers of
Atlanta, and they have been
changed to names that stand for
nothing.”
“Had to do it in some cases,”
returned the judge. “What did
the Russians do when they found
they couldn’t capture Berlin?
Went right back home _and
changed St. Petershurg to Petro
grad! That's a good and cheap
way to get even.
“Sometimes one end and the
middle of a street may degener

reputation can’'t be mentioned in
polite soclety. The other end re

can’'t reform the street, so they
cut it in two and give the nice
end a new name. And you can't
blame them.”
“Well, I'm willing for them to
change everything in town, if
they'll go the whole hog and cut
out 98 per cent of the Peach
trees,” said the Colonel. “Ever
since it made itself famous as the
Foremost Residence Street of the
Sunny South, everybody within
nine blocks of it has tried to edge
into the shadow of the name. We
now have Peachtree road and

“You're right,” said the Judge,

NOT AN EXCUSE
Just a Plain Statement of Facts
Made to Customers of
Atlanta’s Leading Laundries
ANENT THE QUESTION OF DYES
{ We have no intention of alarming our
patrons. :
{ Nor are we setting before you a con
dition which you can, in any wise, prevent
or help.
{ Neither are we in the slightest to blame.
{ So we just want to tell you a few facts.
¢ You are more or less familiar with the
dye situation. The great European con
flict has made this situation most acute.
( Foreign dyes—which have been accept
ed as standard—and which were about
all that were used in the manufacture of
American goods prior to the war—are no
longer procurable.
{ Manufacturers in this country—prac
tically all of them—have been put to the
extremity of securing dyes as best they
could. Some have made their own dyes.
Other concerns are buying American dyes.
At any rate, most of the dyes which
have been used for the past twelve months
have been of doubtful quality.
€ Goods in which these dyes are used,the
colors are not as “fast” as the German
dyes. '

Secretary Moore and Attorney
Wimbish to Combat Southern
Classification Petition.
Dissatisfled with the sweeping and
drastic intrastate regulations asked
by the railroads of Georgia in their
petition to the State Railroad Com
mission, shippers of Atlanta and the
State, through the Atlanta Freight
Bureau, are preparing Wednesday to
make a determined fight to prevent
adoption of the freight tariffg pro
posed in the petition, the most volu
minous ever filed with the commis
sion.
Harry Moore, secretagyy of the
freight bureau, announced that Colo
nel W. A. Wimbish, who represented
Southeastern shippers before the In
terstate Commerce Commission dur-
Ing hearings that resulted in the re
cent revision of interstate rates in
this territory, had been retained to
lead the fight before the Georgia
commission.
Colonel Wimbish was preparing
Wednesday to make an exhaustive
study of the new rates, which are in
accord with the Southern classifica
tion, on a “long and short haul” clause
of the Federal commission’s ruling,
which went into effect January 1 last.
The scope of the proposed schedules
is 8o sweeping that it is declared re
vision will be made on practically
every commodity transported in Geor
gia, and that the higher rates will af
fect practically every city, town and
bamlet in the State.
GET IT FIRST-NOT LAST
When a cold grips your system it
shows that your condition is weak
ened—remember that. You should
not trust your strength to throw it
off, because neglected colds have
brought more sickness than any
other one thing, while weakening
cathartics and stimulating syrups
are depressing and dangerous.
The one best treatment for any
cold—the one so often relied on when
others fail, is the powerful blood
nourishment in Scott’s Emulsion
which feeds the very sources of
bodily strength to suppress the
present cold and generate strength to
thwart further sickness.
Get Scott’s first, not last—and insist
on the genuine—always free from alco
hol and injurious drugs.
