ONE OF AUGUSTA’S PROBLEMS—
TO SELL WE MUST BUY.
' All the world la after trade, by which Is too often meant favorable
markets for what we have* to sell without much reference to what
we Khali take In return. The economist* tell us that healthy trade
must be reciprocal; that if we are to sell we must also buy, by which
we are led to understand that the prices we may hope to real!**. **
well n« the bulk of commodities we may expect to market, will de
pend very largely upon our willingness to buy as* well a« to aall
Let’s apply this principle to Augusta and her trade ter
ritory. It means that; if Augusta merchants, wholesale and
retail, want to increase their sales, Augusta must in turn
buy and offer the best market for all that the farmers in
some dozen or more good counties in South Carolina and
eighteen or twenty in Georgia, raise on their farms and have
for sale.
If Augusta as a market for hogs and livestock, hay and
corn and peas and potatoes, as well as cotton and cotton seed
buys more from the surrounding trade territory, Augusta in
turn can sell more to its territory. One of the great needs is
to develope Augusta more and more as the trading place,
a market that buys as well as sells for its trade territory.
If Augusta declines to market promptly and efficiently and
at good prices what the farmer raises and Macon and Colum
bia and Charleston and Savannah offer these facilities Au
gusta will inevitably lose trade or the opportunity to sell
goods in this territory as against these cities.
Putting it another way—if Augusta encourages the
farmer to raise diversified crops and helps him to market
them profitably, by buying them, the farmer will have more
money to buy in turn, the things Augusta merchants and
manufacturers and jobbers have to sell. Augusta can only
prosper by helping to develop its trade territory. Augusta
must buy as well as sell in its trade territory. Good roads,
banking and credit facilities, a mutual market, and Augusta
and her trade territory will both prosper.
THE LAW OF GOOD FORTUNE.
“I am myself good fortune.”
This line, by Walt Whitman, is the expression of an op
timist—not an egotist.
It is of a man who assumes himself a part of all nature
—every animate and inanimate thing.
That all nature is good, and to bo a part of it is good
fortune.
The universe is the supply and exhibition temple of
nature in all her expressions.
She gratifies man in the way of food and clothing for
his body froth the fields; she gratifies his sense of beauty in
the numberless unfolding flowers of spring, in the trees, the
bills, the sky. the sea. the moon and the starry night.
Man’s only restriction to his part in all of nature’s gifts
is himself.
His restriction is self-restriction, when he in his greed
assumes that he is nil of nature rather than just a part of it;
when he breathes nature’s laws and sets up laws unto him
self.
Man in his fear denies himself by denying others the
right to participate—he that falsifies the balance to deceit,
imposes upon others by contract or commits act of revenge
born of hate.
Man then becomes misfortune.
Man, true man, is a favored part of nature—as an aid
in nature’s expression of herself.
That man must give in order to aid in distribution, is
nature’s law of compensation and which controls all social,
business, political and individual affairs.
To refuse to aid is to restrict nature in her bounties and
results in the elimination of those who refuse.
Man's misfortune is in his failure to participate in na
ture scheme of things, to refuse to obey her law, the law of
good fortune.
Nature has a never ending series of tests and inspec
tions.
She seeks and finds all our weaknesses and is ever
trying us to the breaking point.
She rewards the strong by many and severe trials.
She* is loud in her warnings and hard in her chastenings.
She brings sorrow ns a contrast to intensify joy.
She knows neither revenge nor pity.
This is birth, life and death, but it is all the cycle of the
universe. For death is but disintegration and decay—the
birth bed of new life.

OBSERVATIONS
If collective burgaining ia a good way
to settle the price of labor, why i»A»’t it
u good way to settle the price of eats?
Lloyd George fold the house of com
mons that the allies hud decided for non
intervention in Russia, but that they
would contlnu* to aid friendly ♦ leinents
that ar fighting Bolshevism. It Is all
clear enough, « xcapt that we can’t un
derstand the difference between Inter
vention anti intervention.
The charge against Genera! Graves Is
that he refused to help the Japs In an at
ta< k on people with whom the; United
States is not at wur
The allies have decided to feed the
Russian.* provided they will stop flgitiinq
long enough to cat.
After Helgoland Is stripped of ita for
tifications. there will be no further need
of the first syllable
The I’aris Temps says the lluns will
have until May 15 to decide whether to
sign It should be an easy matter to de
cide between a mortgage and Bolshevism.
The Huns say the allies are covering
naked annexation with a fig leaf, but
we don’t care a n* for the Hun’s opin
ions about annexation.
German newspapers tell us that the
peace terms are a defeat for Wilson. He
can stand it If the Huns can.
The wur department explains unjust
sentences by saying that they' were
’’necessary” and could he corrected later.
That’s w'hat the Hun said about invading
Belgium
The timid whine that Industrial strikes
In Germany will breed Bolshevism in Am
erica Hure. And a strike of telephone
operators in America will ruin the po
tato crop in Germany
The greatest enemy of Bolshevism is
the fact that destroying the capital does
not increase the interest.
Utopia doesn’t mean loafing The only
happy people are the busy ones.
A Word of Caution.

—SENSATIONS OF A N ARTIST’S MODEL—
My First Experience Pos
ing in An Artist’s
Studio
Msnya Rudma —a photograph taken in the garden of her horn: at riovno,
Russia, shortly before she came to America.
CHAPTER TWQ.
BY MANYA RUDINA.
Famous New York Artist's Model.
How well I remember my first artist
frjend, and how l posed for him!
He had come to the village on the out
skirts of Kief to paint, the scene, and
lie saw me dancing with the villas** chil
dren and * pole* t® roe. I told him how
I came to the village, how l hated the
discipline in the school, and wanted to
be a dancer.
He was kind, and told me he would
like to make a painting of me. He gave
me his Ntudlo address in Kief and be
gan to tell me 1 need not be afraid of an
artist, or of potting
1 told him I was not afraid. I was
glad. 1 had always dreamed of the pos-
Hibillty of helping an artist to create a
beautiful picture l made an appoint
ment to go to his studio, but It was
hard to get out of the school.
Y made up a story that I must go to
see Home relatives. I did not sleep nights
thinking of what poses I would take;
hot* 1 would help the artist create some
tiling and see myself on a canvass. I
imagined ills studio. My mind was so
filled that while the school lessons were
going on l was far away. When It cane
my turn to read l did not know the pl**e;
had not turned a page in my book.
Finally the day came, and I got a wav;
it was in the afternoon, during the re
cess time.
He was a very successful artist even
then, though young, but he was poor*.
He met. me at the door himself and took
me Into his studio.
The reality of the studio was different,
of course, from what l had dreamed, hut
it was even better. It had no wonderful
furniture, but there was tlie atmosphere
of art and artistic things. It had the
smell of the paints.
He began to tell me that I sliould not
be bashful, should not be afraid, and I
told him it was not necessary that he
should say that, for I was not afraid at
all
First T looked over all his brushes, all
his palms, and asked him all sorts of
questions, about everything he used—the
canvasses, the colors, the brushes, the
palette, the easel. He told me how he
mixed the colors. He showed me his work
and 1 asked him to explain it to me. I
could not stop questioning. I gould not
stop running from one thing to another,
even when he. told me we did not have
much time because it was getting dark.
He wanted to show me how to nose,
but I asked him to let me take niv own
pose. He was surprised how experienced
1 seemed. It. seemed ro him us if I must
have posed before, but I never had But
always 1 had dreamed, always I had

imagined how* I would some day pose
for an artist. .
By dusk the outline of my portrait had
been sketched in charcoal. I made an
other appointment for a second sitting
and went away full of happiness.
» did not think of my punishment at
school. The punishment was severe. 1
had to sleep alone; t was not permitted
out in the yard for one whole day; the
teacher made me stand In the corner ar.d
a note was sent to my parents complain
ing. Everybody looked at me with pity.
But 1 did not care; my only worry was
how to get out again. I ran away twice
again, but the artist finished the picture.

Starving in the
Midst of Plenty
Acid-Stomach Steals Strength and
Good Feelings From Millions
One of the worst features of acid
stomach is that very often it literally
starves its victims in the midst of
plenty. And the strange thing
about it is that the people w'th acid
ctomachs seldom know what their
trouble really is.
No matter how good or wholesome
the food may be, or how much they
cat, they do not gain in strength.
This is clearly explained by the
fact that an acid-stomach cannot
properly digest food. Instead of
healthy, normal digestion, the excess
acid causes the food to sour and fer
ment. Then when this mas 3 of sour,
fermented food, charged with excess
acid, passes into the intestines, it be
comes the breeding place for all kind 3
of germs and toxic poisons, which in
turn are absorbed into the blood and
in this way distributed throughout
the entire body. And that ia exactly
why it is that so many thousands of
people eat and eat and keep on eating
and yet are literally starving in the
midst of plenty. Their acid-stomachs
make it absolutely impossible for
(hem to get the full measure of nour
ishment out of their food. And it
doesn't take long for this poor nour
ishment to show its ill effects in a
weakened, emaciated body.
You may say: “My stomach doesn’t
hurt me. That may be true because
many victims of acid-stomach do not
actually suffer stomach pains. Then
again, (here are millions who do suffer
ail kinds of aches and pains—head
aches, rheumatic twinges, gout, lum
bago, pains around the heart and in
the chest—who never dream that an

acid-stomach is the real cause of the
trouble.
Naturally, the sensible thing to do
is to strike right at the very cause of
this trouble and clean the excess acid
out of the stomach. There is a quick,
easy way to do this. A wonderful
new remedy quickly removes the
excess acid without the slightest dis
comfort. It is EATONIC. Made in
the form of tablets—they ajc good
to eat—just like a bit of candy. They
literally ebsorb the injurious excess
acid and carry it away through the
intestines. They also drive the bloat
out of the body—in fact you can fairly
feelitwork. Make a testof EATONIC
in your own case today. Get a big
box of EATONIC from your druggist.
See for yourself how surely it brings
quick relief in those painful attacks
of indigestion, bitter heartburn, Spinn
ing, disgusting food repeating, that
awful bloated, lumpy feeling after
eatfcg and other stomach miseries.
Banish all your stomach trouGles so
completely that you forget you have
a stomach. -Then you can eat wha„
you like and digest your food in com
fort without fear of distressing
after effects.
If EATONIC does not relievejyou, it
will not coal you one penny. You can
return it to your druggist and get
your money back. So if you have the
slightest question about your health
—if you feel you are not getting all
the strength out of your food—if you
are not feeling tip-top, ready for your
work, full of vim and vigor—do give
EATONIC a fair trial this very day
and see how much better you win feel.
