Train Yourselves for Career.
Advice of Atlanta Business
Woman to Sisters.

Every Southern girl, OF whatever
station in life, should be trained so she
will be Independent of any man in MAX
ing her way through the world"
That statement expresses definitely
the sentiments Of Mrs c. L. Bovard,
Atlanta's successful woman contractor
and real estate dealer, who. Incidental
ly, is a lawyer by way of furnishing
herself one more means of her much
loved independence.
Personally l would rather be COM
peting with men in honest, straight
forward business than managing the
woman's part of a home" continued
Mrs. Bovard, as she put her signature
to a deed that represented a clients
investment of several thousand dollars
in Atlanta real estate. 81 think it gives
a woman a clearer, cleaner life view
point If she feels she'll be able to take
care of herself successfully. Mind, l
don't say that a home with husband
and children do not constitute the SUI
preme happiness in a great many cases
or the majority of-cases where woman's
happiness is involved. All the same, If
I were giving advice to girls I would
have them learn the way to make a
comfortable livelihood so that if the
worst came to the worst they could
still look the world in the face with
out any fear of the poor house"
Practices What She breaches.
That Mrs. Bovard has practiced quite
thoroughly what she breaches, she ex-
planned, by way of showing that one
woman may find even more than one
way of making her way to aftiuence in
the South.
Mrs. Bovard still is young. but ten
years ago she was a woman lawyer in
Florida. u practiced there she said,
and I think 1 may say that the law
brought me a very comfortable indie

pendence in Florida. But l had a nat
ural ambition to make more money
and friends in Atlanta convinced me
that it would be a pity to throw away
the chance offered. by this quickly
growing town. So l came here, but
could not practice law in Georgia
and ] became a real estate agent. Well
the competition with the men in real
estate became keen. 1 don't know, but
that it was even a little keener because
was a woman
But certainly l asked no favors.
told everybody that so long as l was
in business l expected to be treated
just as one business man treats an
other But it wasn't long before
found it very lucky that I'd practiced
law and knew the ropes Collections
in my real estate dealings became bad
and I found that some of the lawyers
whom 1 employed to make them for
me weren't getting the money as they
ought to. Then l undertook the collec-
tions myself and l don't mind saying
that l made them.
Entered Contracting Field.
Then I developed into the contract
ing business, quite naturally by build
ing houses for my real estate clients
had to employ my own men and some
times l made my own designs In all
I've built 35 houses and the real es-
tate transactions run into the hundreds
of thousands of dollars during the past
six months I'm saying that only to
prove the point that any woman of
ordinary ability may make her way
through the world.
And I believe that when woman are
given the right to practice law in Geor-
gia this year you will see a splendid
addition to the bar of the common
wealth and women practitioners who
will lend dignity and real erudition to
| the profession"
Mrs. Bovard told the reporter she
believed the day near when Southern
women would be trained to be indie
pendent financially.
When they once take up the idea
you will find that they will open for
themselves new, dignihed, successful
ways of making a livelihood of which
nobody now dreams" she concluded.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There IS
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
caused by an indamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
condition of the mucous surfaces.

Ends Hunt For Rich Girl

Often the hunt for rich wife ends
when the man meets a woman that
uses Electric Bitters. Her strong
nerves tell in a bright brain and even
temper Her peach bloom complexion
and ruby lips result from her pure
blood; her bright eyes from restful
sleep; her elastic step from firm, free
muscles, all telling of the health and
strength Electric Bitters give a wom-
an, and the freedom from Indigestion,
backache, headache, fainting and dizzy
spells they promote. Everywhere they
are womans favorite remedy. If weak
or ailing, try them. soc at all drug
gists. -"
