DIDN’T KNOW
WHAT TO DO
Pitiful State in Which Mrs. May
Found Herself, and How
She Escaped.
Opp, Ala.—ln a letter from this
town, Mrs. Carrie May writes as fol
lows; "About two months after I
married, I began to have very bad
weak spells, and terrible headaches. 1
felt miserable all the time, and soon
got to where I Wouldn't hardly stay up.
After the third month I got down com
pletely.
I was young, had never been sick be
fore, and I just didn’t know what to
do. I thought I would die.
My husband, at last, got me a bottle
of Cardui, the woman's tonic, and it
helped me so, he got another bottle.
When I had taken the second bottle I
was well.
I wish that every woman, suffering
from womanly trouble, would give
Cardui a trial. It Is the best medicine
on earth for womanly weakness.”
Are you weak, tired, worn-out? Do
you suffer from any of the pains pe
culiar to weak women? If so, take
Cardui.
As a remedy for women's ills, Cardui
has been most successful. It is purely
vegetable, composed of Ingredients
which have been found to build up the
vitality and strengthen the womanly
constitution, as well as prevent or re
lieve those terrible pains from which
weak women suffer.
Cardui is worth trying. Judging
from the experience of a million other
women who have been benefited by
this remedy, it should surely do you
good.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, Itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any etore for "Wyeth’s
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy,” you
will get a large bottle of this famous
old recipe for about 50 cents.
Don’t stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy. Adv.

GAME IS PLENTIFUL
THROUGHOUT STATE
ROSY OUTLOOK FOR THE GEOR
GIA HUNTSMEN THIS .
YEAR.
THE DATES NOT CHANGED
Quail, Deer and Turkey More Plentiful
Than Ever, Says Game
Warden.
—Atlanta.
That the quail, turkey and deer
hunting in Georgia during this ap
proaching season will be better than
it has been for a generation Is the
statement, of Jesse E. Mercer, state
game and fish commissioner. Mr. Mer
cer declares that all game, but par
ticularly the quail and turkey and
deer, has increased very rapidly this
year.
For some reason the correct dates
of the open season have been misun
derstood recently, says Mr. Mercer,
and some newspapers of the state have
printed those dates wrong. The dates
have not been changed since last sea
son, says he. Here they are:
August 1 to January 1, cat squirrel.
September 1 to April 20, migratory'
ducks.
October 1 to December 1, male deer.
November 20 to March 1, quail, tur
key gobblers, doves and plover.
December 1 to May 1, snipe.
December 1 to January 1, wood cock
and wood duck.
Following are the bag limits impos
ed by law in Georgia: Quail, summer
duck, woodcock, plover, twenty-five in
one day; doves, snipe, forty in one
day; deer (buck only) in one season,
three ;turkey (gobbler only), in one
season, three; migratory duck, in-one
day, fifty.
Absolute protection has been given
by the Georgia law for a period of
years to fox squirrel, female deer,
fawns, turkey hens, pheasants, grouse
and all Imported game birds and ani
mals. The permission of the landown
er must be secured before one can
hunt or fish on the property of an
other. Transportation of game is pro
hibited on all common carriers, un
less it is in the possession of the li
censed hunter who killed it. No game
may be sold except migratory ducks.
License must be. taken out before the
hunter begins, and must be renewed
on February 21 if the hunter contin
ues after that date. The license fees
are (for residents) $1 for home coun
ty, $3 for state and (for non residents)
sls for hunting in the state.
Legislature Is Praised.
The work of the recent sesion is at
tracting much favorable notice from
the substantial periodicals of the East.
The numerous commendations of the
tax equalization and other construct
ive measures adopted on the recom
mendation of Governor Slaton are
taken as boding well for the big bond
issue which will have to be floated two
yeass hence.
Editorial comment of the New York
Evening Post, which is perhaps the
most conservative of metropolitan dal
lies and ranks high with investors, is
a fair example of what is being said.
The following is taken from a recent
number:
“It is so seldom possible to say a
hearty word for the work of a state
legislature that the record of Georgia
deserves notice. It assembled June
25 and adjourned August 14, being
limited by law to fifty days. Although
it began in the usual way of legisla
tures, uncertainly and with little
promise of effectiveness, it closed with
a week of solid accomplishment. It
found the state treasury, in Governor
Slaton’s words, sick and steadily on
the decline. This condityjn it met
by a tax equalization bill, supplement
ed by an inheritance tax and other
tax provisions. Among laws dealing
with social betterment, none is of
greater interest than the "mother's
rights” bill, which, does away with
gross discrimination by placing a
mother upon an equality with the fa
ther in cases involving the custody of
minor children. In the background of
all this work stands the governor.”
Three Kinds of Poisonous Snakes.
Research at the capitol develops
the fact that there are but three kinds
of poisonous snakes in Georgia, and
that all the other varieites are harm
less. The three are the rattlesnake,
coppe head and moccasin. The copper
heads. re very few.
The rattlesnakes are by far the most
numerous of the poisonous reptiles.
They range in size all the way from
little "button rattler' - who never
grows a rattle big enough to rattle
with, to the terrible diamond-back,
whose real home is Florida, but which
occasionally gets over the border into
Georgia.
The Georgia rattlesnake, however, is
never a ruffian. He is never bruis
ing for a fight. He prefers to be
left alone, and his rattle is not a
battle-cry, but a fair warning.
WHEELER COUNTY EAGLE, ALAMO, GEORGIA.
Vice Crusade Year Old.
One year having passed since At
lanta closed its red light district, the
whole world is arising to ask whether
or not the experiment has been suc
cessful. Scores of American cities
are writing and planning to investigate
the effect it has had on general vice
conditions here, and demands are
coming from Maine to California for
information as to how the change was
brought about.
The change has been the result of
a crusade begun by the Men and Re
ligion- Forward Movement and active
ly aided by Police Chief J. L. Beav
ers. And so far as present condi
tions are concerned, the segregated
district has been wiped completely
off the map.
Until a year ago, Atlanta had pur
sued the common policy of restriction
and a sort of informal recognition and
supervision by the police. There has
existed, however, for years in Geor
gia a state law making the operation
of these houses a misdemeanor.
The fight began when two moneyed
philanthropists, Marion Jackson and
John J. Eagan, published a series of
newspaper bulletins in advertisement
form, signed by the Men and Relig
ion committee, demanding that the
law be enforced. Many of these bul
letins were of a remarkable and im
passioned eloquence. Many were so
blunt that there was question of
whether they ought to pass through
the mails. The movement met with
violent and bitter opposition from
many prominent citizens and from
men who were financially interested
in the vice district, and also from
many people who honestly believed re
striction the sanest method of hand
ling the social evil. At the risk of
losing his political head, Chief Beav
ers decided to enforce the letter of
the law. The ghange has been too
recent to draw any general conclus
ions, but so far as -it has gone the
crusade has been a success.
Harris Appoints Commission.
Georgia visitors to Washington re
turn with the declaration that William
J. Harris of Georgia, director of the
Federal census, is already one of the
most prominent Southern figures at
the Capital City, and that he is gen
erally recognized as one of the very
strongest men in the executive end of
the government.
Director Harris is taking steps for
the thorough reorganization of the
census bureau, and has recently ap
pointed a special commission of ex
perts to investigate every branch of
the bureau and report on plans for
improving its efficiency. As was de
liberately intended the political per
sonnel of this commission is republi
can, its verdict, therefore, cannot be
charged with bias or clouded by any
muckraking motives. The commis
sion has also declared that the bu
reau is in a "deplorable condition,"
and the work which the Georgia man
has before him is to put it on a
businesslike and practical basis of
maximum efficiency. By doing this,
Mr. Harris will lay the entire country
under obligations to him. He is not
contemplating any plans to clean
house violently, but proposes to go
about the changes in a sober, method
ical, but thorough manner.
To Meet November 18th.
Organized for practical, effective
work, and composed of men who are
making a serious study of their du
ties. the joint commission on the
Western and Atlantic railroad, form
ed at the recent session of the legis
lature, will hold its next meeting at
the capitol on November 18, when
the subcommittee will report progress
in detail.
After that date, the commission
will meet monthly until the final re
port and recommendations are formu
lated. The committee is working in
perfect harmony. At the organization
meeting there was a possibility of dis
cord among the members over the ap
pointment of a general chairman, but
this was avoided by the quick and un
selfish action of Representative Bar
ry Wright and Senator J. W. L.
Brown. G. Gunby Jordan of Colum
bus was made general chairman on
a thoroughly satisfactory compromise.
Mr. Wright, who has perhaps made a
deeper study of the W. & A. situa
tion than any other member of the
assembly, was chosen secretary of
the committee.
This commission will go into the
whole question of W. & A. terminals
and also of what is to be done with
the state’s property at the expiration
of the present lease.
Man Almost Starved.
It seems almost incredible that in
a city like Atlanta a man could be
left to starve to death in the very
shadow of the capitol dome, but that
is what Joel Fischer, an aged crip
ple, was doing when neighbors dis
covered his pitiable plight and lent
him temporary aid.
Fischer was unable to find the kinc
of work which his crippled condition
would permit him to do, and he and
his wife had actually been doing with
out bread when their condition was
discovered. It must be explained jr
justice to the charitable organizatior
of the city that Fischer had not ap
plied to any of them.

DIDN'T KNOW
That Coffee Was Causing Her Trouble.
So common is the use of coffee as a
beverage, many do not know that It is
tue cause of many obscure ails which
are often attributed to other things.
The easiest way to find out for one
self is to quit the coffee for a while,
at least, and note results. A Virginia
lady found out in this way, and also
learned of a new beverage that is
wholesome as well as pleasant to
drink. She writes:
“I am 40 years eld and all my life,
up to a year and a halt ago, I had
been a coffee drinker.
"Dyspepsia, severe headaches and
heart weakness made me feel some
times as though I was about to die.
After drinking a cup or two of hot
coffee, my heart would go like a clock
without a pendulum. At other times it
would almost stop and I was go nerv
ous I did not like to be alone.
“If I took a walk for exercise, as
soon as I was out of sight of the house
I'd feel as if I was sinking, and this
would frighten me terribly. My limbs
would utterly refuse to support me,
and the pity of it all was, I did not
know that coffee was causing the trou
ble.
"Reading in the papers that many
persons were relieved of such ailments
by leaving off coffee and drinking Post
um, I got my husband to bring home
a package. We made it according to
directions and I liked the first cup. Its
rich, snappy flavor was delicious.
"1 have been using Postum about
eighteen months and to my great joy,
digestion is good, my nerves and heart
are all right, in fact, I am a well woman
once more, thanks to Postum.”
Name given by postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich. Write for copy of the
little book, “The Road to Wellville.”
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum—must be well
boiled.
Instant Postum is a soluble powder.
A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a
cup of hot wqter and, with cream and
sugar, makes a delicious beverage in
stantly. Grocers sell both kinds.
