NATIVE OF
THE SOUTHLAND
And Nothinq Pleases This Lady
More. Than to Praise Cardui,
The Woman’s Tonic.
Chilllcothe, Ohio.—"l am a native of
the Southland,” says Mrs. Ed. Davis,
of this town, “and nothin!? pleases me
more than to speak a word of praise
for Cardui, the woman's tonic, for I
firmly believe that it snatched me
from the grave. Although I do not
need It now, I always keep a supply
on hand.
I have been married 14 years, and
had two children. After the young
est was born, I was not able to walk,
and for four years, I was not strong
enough to stand on my feet five min
utes at the time, without something
to support me.
After everything else had failed, I
wrote to the Ladles' Advisory Depart
n ent, of the Chattanooga Medicine
Co., for advice, and they kindly told
me what I needed. I commenced tak
ing the Cardui Home Treatment. I
used only about four bottles of the
Cardui, but, today, I am well, can do
my own work, and walk as far as 1
want to.
I can never praise Cardui enough,
and my neighbors cannot get done
wondering at the change in me.”
* Cardui will surely do as much for
you, as it did for the writer of the
above letter, if you will only give it a
trial.
Don't delay. Begin taking Cardui
today. Your druggist sella it.

THIEF; NOW IN HIDING
Atlanta.—A negro with two bullets
in his hide, and several dollars' worth
of rich dining car delicacies in his
stomach, Ih concealing himself some

Fort McPherson.
For some lime past, the dining cars

came upon the thief red-handed, with
his mouth full of pie and his arms full
of bacon, in the kitchen of the car. He
Jumped out of a window. Frank Ellis

The county police this morning made
up a posse and are scouring the woods
for him.

IST ANTI-TRUST
HOKES
Trade Commission Measure
Provides For Board With
Broad Powers Over Corpora
tions.
Washington, D. C.—Th* int*r-state
trade commlss on bill, the first measure
on the administration anti-trust legisla
tion. program, was passed by the house
late yesterday without a record vote.
The Covington Trade Commission bill,
the first measure on the administration
anti-trust program as considered in the
house would create a commission with
broad Inquisitorial power over corpora
tions engaged in Inter-state commerce.
The hill would turn over to a commis
sion of three members the power row
held by the Bureau of Corpora lions !n
the department of commerce, and confer
on the commission additional powers.
Three Commissioners.
The bill provides for the appointment
of three commissioners, no more than
two of one political party, by the Presi
dent. The commissioners would serve
six years at SIO,OOO, and employ a sec
retary at $5,000. Tim commissioners
would be barred Orom engaging in any
other vocation while serving.
After abolishing the Bureau of Cor
porations and the positions of Commis
sioner and Assistant Commissioner of
Corporations the bill would turn ovef
the organization and powers of the bu
reau to the new commission. Tt then
provides that all corporations, with a
capital of not less than $5,000,000, ex
eept. t4iose now subject to the Inter
state Commerce Commission, shall sub
mit annual reports, ‘records of its or
ganization. bondholders and stockholders
and financial condition” to the commis
sion. The commission may also desig
nate corporations having a capitaliza
tion of less than $5,000,000 from whom It
desires reports. Tt may call for special
reports In addition to the regular annual
statements required by the bill, and
would provide a penalty of SIOO a day
for delay in filing reports.
Report the Facts.
Upon the direction of the President,
the attorney general nr either House of
Congress, the commission would be au
thorized to investigate and report the
facts relating to any alleged violations
of the anti-trust laws. The commission
would also recommend possible readjus
ments of the business of corporations so
Investigated in order that they might
conduct their business in accordance
with the law. When the commission
finds information as to any “unfair com
petition or practice in commerce, not
necessarily constituting a violation of
the law,” it is called upon to report to
the President and aid him in making
recommendations to Congress for remed
ial legislation.
Charge of Cases.
The bill would authorize the commis
sion to take charge of cases In which
the courts have decided a complainant
entitled to relief under the anti-trust
laws, and recommend ‘an appropriate
form of decree to the court.” It would
also empower the commission, on its own
iniative or at the request of the attor
ney general to Investigate the manner
in which decrees under the anti-trust
laws have been carried out. A report
on such investigations would be sub
mitted to the attorney general for action.
The commission is given wide author
ity to make public all information se
cured in the course of its investigations
and is called upon to submit a report
to Congress on or before the first of
December each year. This report would
Include such information as the commis
sion has secured and such recommenda
tions as to additional legislation for the
regulation of corporations in commerce.
The bill provides. however, that no
"trade secrets m* private lists of custom
ers” shall he made public in the reports
of the commission.

NATION'S ILLNESS
Ass’n of Life Insurance Pres
idents Told of Plan —Huge
Economic Losses.
New York.—On the ground that ill
ness In this countryl s causing huge
economic losses, mounting every year
into hundreds of millions of dollars,
the Association of Fife Insurance Pres
idents was urged today to aid in a
movement for a comprehensive system
of reporting cases of sickness through
out the different states, along the lines
that deaths are now reported. It was
declared that much of the illness of to
day Is needless and that the first step
In prevention must be accurate knowl
edge as to the occurence of sickness.
The recommendations were made by
Dr. X.ouis I. Dublin, life insurance sta
tistician, of this city.
Model Law.
A model law to provide for such re
ports has been prepared by the Con
ference of State and Territorial Health
Authorities in conjunction with the
United States Public Health Service.
An effort is being made to interest
large business and industrial concerns
In the movement, principally on the
ground of the resulting economic bene
fit to them. Besides, It is pointed out
that any reduction of economic loss
will, without additional effort, or ex
pense, bring concurrently a vast reduc
tion in social loss, including physical
suffering, dependency, lack of educa
tion and training and other results of
Illness that lower the standard of fam
ily and community life.
Have Borne Fruit.
"The life saving campaigns of the
last few decades have borne fruit."
said Dr. Dublin, in his reeomendatlon.
“The death rate has been lowered and
the average span of life corresponding
ly lengthened. Deaths from certain
causes, especially from typhoid fever,
smallpox, the Infectious diseases of
childhood, and tuberculosis, have been
reduced. The amount of sickness, on
the other hand, has been controlled to
an appreciable degree. There is still
too much sickness among us. Indeed,
there sre those who, with some author
ity, maintain that illness has actually
increased In spite of alt the saving In
mortality. The next twenty vears
must, therefore, see our activities In
health work directed, especially to the
control of disease If we avail our
selves of our present knowledge of san
itary science, we can reduce the Inci
dence of Illness fully as much as we
have already cut down our death
rates.”
Always Lssd to Bsttsr Health.
Serious sicknesses start In disor
ders of the aotmach, liver and kid
neys. The best corrective and preven
tive Is Dr. King's New Fife rills.

JOLLY “JIM” PRICE WELL
PLEASED OVER THE RAINS
Atlanta. —Jolly “Jim” Price, Geor
gia's commissioner of agriculture is
mighty happv today and is smiling a
broad smile, ks broad as his black
brimmed hat, over the rains which
came Just at the right time to put
agricultural Georgia on the way toward
big crops and attendant prosperity.
Mr. Price, who is never pessimistic,
hated to say Just how badly Georgia
did need that rain, or what would hap
pen if it didn’t come soon. He had a
"hunch” that It would come in time,
and It did, right to the minute.
Mr. Price has a big farm of his own,
and is interested as a practical farmer
as well as state commissioner. He has
been so busy, by the way, keeping his
eye on crop conditions, and working
for improvement along all lines, that
he has hardly found time to get out
an;- formal announcement of his can
didacy, but his friends know that he is
going to ask the voters to express their
confidence by having him succeed him
self, and they are already actively at
work in the interest of his race.

Ist Parade of Marching
Strikers in Many Years
Atlanta Mill Hands Mobilize
and March Along Peach
tree and Whitehall
Streets.
Atlanta, Ga.—Atlanta witnessed yes
terday the first parade of marching
strikers she has seen in many years.
And it was a pathetic sight.
Some days ago a strike began in one
of Atlanta’s big bag and cotton mills.
Something of it got into the news col
umns of the Atlanta papers. Then the
mill management hought space in the
advertising columns of the papers and
in an impressive bulletin addressed to
the public stated that the strikers were
a misled few, only 78 in fact. That was
the end of it in the paers.
Yesterday afternoon about 5 o’clock,
when Peachtree and Whitehall pave
ments were thronged with fashionably
gowned strollers and shoppers, four
mounted policemen, riding solemnly
abreast were observed coming from the
direction of Whitehall. Behind the po
licemen, as they cleared the way, strode
a gaunt, pale-faced man of middle age.
in the worn, rough garments of a mill
worker. Awkwardly he carried aloft a
great American flag. At a distance be
hind him, coming two and two, there
marched or rather straggled, gome three
hundred men, women and children. The
staifip of the factory was on their pale
faces. They had no drums or trumpets.
They had no banners save the Stars and
Stripes. They hadn’t had even the fore
thought to have a stream painted. They
moved in silence, looking neither to right
nor left.
The gaily dressed throngs on the pave
ments stopped to watch them go by.
Few people were interested enough to
ask who they were.*
SON OF EX-uTs. SENATOR
KILLS SELF IN S. C.
Charleston, S. C.—G. Pope Irby, son

from Charleston, according to the cor-
Eye Glasses Should Go
Says New York Physician
Here Is His Free Prescription.
"Many who wear glasses could dis
pense with them. Only ordinary care is
necessary. The eyes of old and young
should be properly bathed night and
morning. This is more important than
cleansing teeth,” says he and then he
goes on to say:
"The following treatment Is worthy of
fullest confidence. It Is scientific, im
mediately effective and positively harm
less to the weakest of eyes. Go to any
drug store, get a tube of Optona tablets,
dissolve one In a two-ounce bottle of
pure water and bathe the eyes two to
four times daily. What is generally
known as eye strain will soon be banish
ed while the muscles and nerves are
permitted to perform their normal func
tions. It helps diseased eyes and it
keeps good eyes healthy; It Is absolutely
harmless in every way; does not smart
or burn, has a wonderful effect on gran
ulated lids and Is especially recommend
ed for dull, bleary- or glassy eyes. It
helps all eyes and should be In every
home for use In emergency.”
The following extracts are from letters
received from users of this prescription:
“I used Optona one week for a cold
In my eyes; It did me a great deal
of good."
"My eyes have been falling for
years. I am sure Optona Is doing
them good and shall continue Its
use."
“Have only been using Optona a
short time. My eyes are improving
wonderfully.”
"1 find Optona very satisfactory
and recommend it wherever I find an
opportunity. I find It very sooth
ing.”
‘Tve been benefited by Optona and
intend to follow the treatment.”
"Have been using Optona for about
three months and It has greatly im
proved my sight.”
“My eyes have been sore for sev
eral years; were red and Inflamed,
llsed everything recommended and
galnd no relief. I had my eyes ex
amined and wore glasses for six
months. I read of Optona and
thought I would give it a trial. Am
glad to be able to state I got satis
factory relief, and have not worn
my glasses since. I feel my eyes do
not require them.”
Many others have made similar re
ports. If your eyes bother you, have the
above prescription filled; It may do won
ders for you. Do not become a victim
of neglect. You perhaps value your eyes
more than any other organ, therefore
it's your duty to protect them. This free
prescription has given relief to thou
sands.
