gallons of mineral oils, but nothing
seemed to help me. I spent hun
dreds of dollars, but it wasn't the
money I had to spend that worried
me—it was my failure to get well.
I became so discouraged 1 was on
the verge of giving up all hope of
getting well,
“When 1 began hearing so many
good things about Pomeroy and his
medicine, Puratone, I decided to try
once more to get relief, but I had no
idea this medicine would do such
wonderful things for me. To make
a long story short, I will just say
that now after taking four bottles
of Puratone I am like a brand-new
man. | have a good appetite, can
eat anything 1 want without any
bad after effects, I sleep good and
get out of bed every morning feel
ing fine! 1 actually feel like I have
a new stomach, for I have no signs
of stomach disorders now, and my
health is good once again. My
strength has been increased and 1
have much more life and energy.
My digestion seems to be perfect, I
have a good color and am in good
shape in every respect. I feel great.
Puratone has been a blessing to me
and I never miss the opportunity of
recommending it to others.”
Puratone is sold in Atlanta ex
clusively by the Jacobs’ Pharmacy
Stores, and In College Park by the
College Park Pharmacy. It is also

“If 1 had my way about it,” said
the mayor, “I' send to jail every eli

Breaking Records in Atlanta
During the year 1919 there were 3,797 new telephone sta
tions added to the telephone system in Atlanta. Only two other
cities in nine Southeastern States were in the same class as to
growth, DS
Even this large number did pot fill your requirements.
Many more could have been added’if the facilities had been avail
able. An equal number will probably be gained this year.
To gain 3,797 stations in one year may appear a simple un
dertaking to the layman, but it was a stupendous task under the
conditions of today, when you consider that the average gain
during the three previous years was 1,284. We are proud of the
men who achieved it. L
To make this net gain of 3,797 telephones it was necessary
to install 8,785 new telephones, because 4,988 telephones were
discontinued during that period. Here were 13,775 telephones
installed and removed in order to make a net gain of 3,797,
And that is not all. During this same year a large number
of telephones were moved from one location to another, requir
ing the same care and high type of workmanship. e
Considering only these sta‘ions actually installed and re
moved, the year’s work required an average of more than 45 tele
phones installed or removed every working day in the year.
This would be a splendid record even under normal condi
tions. e o AR
Each new telephone added to the system in Atlanta repre
sents a gross expenditure of approximately $125, to say nothing
of the labor and equipment for changes inlocation and for main
tenance, so it was no small problem to secure the half million
dollars with which to do this job. :
The addition of this unprecedented number of telephones
created other serious problems.
The increase in the volume of telephone traffic required the
services of more cperators. They are difficult to get, but in the
face of keen competition for woman labor we are securing and
training numbers of splendid young women,
There has also developed an excessive use of the telephone
in Atlanta which is ereating a serious congestion,
Useless and unnecessary calls should be eliminated and an
unauthorized use of the lines should not be permitted.
Your co-operation in protecting your service from abuse
will be helpful.
