Abating Nuisance.

City Smoke Inspector Paul McMich-

new office to The Georgian He de-
clared that conditions would be I'M

to abate the nuisance if shown how,
particularly if, as some have already
learned it can be done with no in
crease in operating expense. In order
to get results quickly we must have
the cooperation OF the large coal con-
sumers. We can not compel the rigid
enforcement of the new smoke ordi =
nance in all Its terms Immediately.
Such policy would work great hard :
ships upon manufacturers already 10
Gated here and would have the effect,
for time at least, Of keeping away
from Atlanta other plants which our
various commercial organizations are
trying to bring here.

MAY BECOME. A NATION
OF BEARDED WOMEN
# You Value Your Face, Beware of So-Called
Hair RemoverS.
They Cause Soft Fuzz to Come Back Stiff
Brlstly Beard.

1t is the opinion of eminent authori-
ties that if women continue to remove
superfiuous hair With worthless pois
onous depilatories. 1t will be only a
question of time before we will have
nation of bearded women. because
even when doWny growth is removed
by these compounds and connections. it
is sure to grow out again coarser and
heavier after each removal and event
ually it will become a stiff, bristly
beard. Then it will be necessary to re-
sort to the use of the razor, because no
preparation will be strong enough to
remove it without running the skin.
Ii can be safely said that eczema will
most likely become a national disease
If women continue to use so-called
to produce serious skin troubles and
eczem" than the use of these prepara-
tons. While the harm caused by them
is not always noticeable with the first
few applications, the real injury plainly
manifests itself after frequent and con-
tinued use
For years we have been cautioning
women against the use of poisonous
pastes, powders, fake beauty article
recipes" and so-called liquid cures.
but it seems that some are always
willing to be humbugged, because as
soon as one faker has gotten all he
can out of conf1ding women, another
takes his place, and so it will continue
as long as women will permit them
selves to be victims of such impostors.
If you don't mind taking the risk of
Disagreement why pay twenty Ave
cents to one dollar or more for such
worthless preparations, when you can
procure from any drug store for five or
ten cents a sufficient quantity of the
ingredients to last a year?
It must be borne In mind that after
the growth of hair is stimulated by the
use of so-called depilatories it will ne
cessitate a much longer and more per
sistent treatment with DeMirscle than
it would have otherwise required.
Therefore, isn't It safer to stop expert :
menting and use the world famous De
Miracle which is acknowledged by en-
inent authorities everywhere as the
standard depilatory- one perfected,
non poisonous, safe and harmless prep
aration that dissolves hair. thereby
taking the vitality out of it, conse-
quently retarding and preventing an
increased growth?
The best and most convincing proof
that DeMiracle is the only absolutely
reliable and trustworthy hair remover
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-07-03


is that it has stood the test of time. It
was the largest selling depilatory ten
years ago and more of it has been sold
each year since than the combined
sales of the nostrums. The mere fact
that fake dangerous preparations are
short-lived should alone be sufficient
warning to avoid the use of any depil-
atory but that of proven merit.
Don't be deceived or deluded by al
Turing and Impossible claims of i'm
posters. who usually resort to publish :
ing testimonials procured for money
considerable from one or two physi-
clans of questionable standing, or from
some unknown woman, who is dubbed
as great Society leader" More than
likely the preparations were never used

monials Tell any one of them that

felt Five Thousand Dollars If it can be
proven that their So called superfluous

GIRL, ALARMED BY
.L|NEMAN, SHOOTS
Miss Leila Barrett Mistakes
Repair Man on Pole for
Burglar.

Miss Leila Barrett, 1853 Ashby street.
YEARLY shot John Childress lineman,
Tor burglar while he was working on
o1e in front of her home at o'clock
this morning
THE railway and electric company
sbut off its power on the Ashby street
line carly this morning and sent Chill
dress there to fix a wire at the pole
,rst in front of the Barrett home.
Childress Skinned up the pole and
began tapping on the crossarm with his
hammer Miss Barrett, who bad been
sleeping in the bed room of her home
nearest the pole. was awakened and
concluded that burglar was trying to
get into her house.
Girl Shoots in the Air.
She took a pistol from the bureau,
and leaning out of the window, fred
shot into the air, with the intention
of frightening the burglar way. The
bullet tipped past Childress' head close
IN his temple and ne Skinned down the
mole like a squirrel He made the po-
lice station in nothing fiat and told
CAPTAIN Poole assassins were after him
IN Ashby street. While he stayed close
to the station, officers Cooper and Nc
Kibben went to investigate.
Childress had thrown considerable
alarm into the two policemen and they
reached the Ashby street neighborhood
with their fingers on the triggers. But
they hunted an hour in the darkness
without finding anybody who appeared
to be on murder bent
Then Miss Barrett spoke to them
out of her bed room window and told
them that If they were burglars she
was going to fill them up with lead.
They explained they were policemen
and Miss Barrett told about the burglar
scare. They all reached the conclusion
the shot that Childress nearly got was
the one fred by the young woman.
Childress finally was persuaded to go
back to work, with the explicit stipula
ton that all the neighbors now under
stood the situation. He said he did not
want to make any complaint against
