Harris Tax Reform
Bill Is abled

The first tax reform measure Of the
session got its usual luke warm re-
ception in the state senate today when
Senator Harris bill creating county
and state boards of tax returns and
valuati designed to equalize the
Georgia tax system was tabled almost
without opposition.
The unanimity of the opposition to
the measure was surprising in the face
with a committee recommendation. BY
today's action the bill, which is certain
of defeat in it's present form, will come
up for passage later in the session.
What the Bill Provides.
The bill provided:
The appointment of county
boards of tax returns and valua-
tons, composed of three members
named by the Judge of superior
courts The members of the boards
are to receive a salary of IS a day
while in session and shall equalize
the tax returns made to the tax
receiver.
The county boards will have
power to subpoena citizens and re-
quire an oath as to tax returns,
raise or lower said taxes as deemed
proper after a hearing
The appointment Of state tax
board by the governor This board
to be composed of three men at
salary of $500 shall have general
supervision over the county boards.
The duty of the state board shall
be to equalize the taxes among the
various counties and to equalize
assessments placed on corpora
tions by the comptroller general
Senator Sheppard holding up SINH
lar act of 1891, since repealed, as hor-
rible example, pronounced the measure
dangerous.
This bill he said will place a
czarlike power in the hands Of three

WEDDING
PLANS co AWRY
r. v. /. Smith and Bride "Dis-
covered" by Friends and
Given Rice Shower.

F Y, L. Smith figured out secret mar
riage last night and most romantic
runaway honeymoon to New York, but
down at the Terminal station 1t took the
porters four hours today to sweep up the
rice and the old leather that a hundred
Elks and Masons threw at the couple as
they ran for the midnight train for New
York
Mr.. Smith, who is manager of the Elec-
trone Company, in the Empire building,
had been engaged for three months to
Miss Maybele Yarbrough, the nineteen
year-oId daughter OF Matthews Yarbrough.
plumbing inspector. All their friends
knew that they were to be married, since
they had planned that happy event when
they went TO the music festival in April.
Yesterday Mr.. Smith called up Miss
Yarbrough in her office as assistant man
sger OF the Underwood typewriter con-
Germ and told her that II she could get
away quietly he'd like to be married in
the evening and leave for the Northern
honeymoon without single person know
ing.
Sneaks Out Her Trunk.
Miss Yarbrough agreed She hurried
home and packed her trunks and put on
a travelling costume and had a little col
ored boy sneak her trunk out of her home
by the back way. She had been invited
to dinner at half past Z o'clock, and she
slipped away perfectly confident she had
outwitted all her family and friends
At his home al 4Sl Cherokee avenue,
Mr. Smith got his trunk and suitcase out
and on their way TO the train without
single soul suspecting.
The couple met downtown, got an au
tomobile. and were driven to the library
Of the Wesley Memorial church. where
the pastor Rev. DIR. Hendrick, married
them.
But somebody, somehow-that part is
mystery yet-heard of the secret marriage
in the church library about two minutes
after It occurred and telephoned the fact
to Mr. Smiths friends at the Masonic
lodge, and to more friends OF Smith in
the E;ks club, Said friends got automo-
blles, a barrel OF rice, bought a great part
Of the stock of a second hand shoe store,
and descended upon the Terminal station,
where the bride and the bridegroom sat
chucking over their clever deception.
When the train finally came in and the
newlyweds we're permitted to board 1t,
their marriage had been about as con
clusively and enthusiastically advertised
as though they had had church we'd
ding
Upon their return to Atlanta, Mr. Smith
and his bride will go to live in his pref

ARE MICROBES
IN YOUR HAIR
It Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness.

Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger
many, and DR.. Sabourand, the leading
French dermatologist, discovered that
micrObe causes badness. Their
theory has time and again been amp
ly verified through research expert
ents carried on under the observa-
ton of eminent scientists. This mi.
crobe lodges in the Sebum, which is
the natural hair-oil, and when per-
mitted to flourish it destroys the
'hair follicles and in time the pores
entirely close, and the scalp grad
ually takes on a shiny appearance
When this happens there is no hope
; of. the growth of hair being revived.
We have remedy which will, we
honestly believe, remove dandruff,
exterminate the microbe, promote
good circulation in the scalp and
around the hair roots, tighten and
revitalize the hair roots, and over
come badness, so long as there is
any life left in the hair roots.
We back up this statement with
our own personal guarantee that this
remedy called Rexall "93" Hair Ton
ic will be supplied free of all cost
to the user if it fails to do as we
state.
1t will frequently help to restore
gray and faded hair to its original
color, providing loss of color has been
caused by disease; yet it is in no
sense a dye. Rexall "93" Hair Ton
ic accomplishes these results by aid
ing in making every hair root, fol-
licle, and pigment gland strong and
active, and by stimulating a natural
flow of coloring pigment throughout
the hair cells.
We exact no obligations or prom
ises-we simply ask you to give Rex
all "93' Hair Tonic a thorough trial
and if not satisfied tell US and we
will refund the money you paid US
for it. Two sizes, prices so cents
and 81 90. Remember, you can OBJ
tain it in Rochester ony at our store

WHERE 90 THE HIDES GOT

Lid you ever stop to think what be-
comes Of all the hides Of the GERS,
COWS, sheep, etc., and wha. final dis
position is made OF .nen? We know
that most of them are made up into
what quantity these hides are con-
sumed by just one single institution.
The following interesting figures
showing the consumption OF hides in
only one larg. shoe factory were sub
mitted by the F. Mayer Boot and Shoe
Co., manufacturers Of the we'll known
Mayer Honorbilt Shoes. These fig
ures cover one years operation in the
big Mayer shoe factory at Milwaukee.
Total number OF hides consumed
last year, 3S2,573.
These are divided as follows:-
55,447 steers, 2S,676 cows. 51,6O2
calves; $3.50 sheep; 1920 horses;
1860 Kangaroo; 1S1,OOS goats.
All these animals placed in a sin
gle file would make an unbroken line
reaching from Chicago to Detroit. The
requirements for one days operation
make a line over a mile long. To
work this quantity OF hides into shoes
requires over a thousand people, who
draw enough wages to keep a city of
5000 well fed and happy.
Milwaukee, Wis, where the factor
les of the F. Mayer Boot & Shoe CO.
are located, is the greatest leather
market in the world, affording this
company advantages in the selection
of hides, one reason for the superior
ity of their product.
Many Of our readers are acquainted
with the F. Mayer Boot & Shoe Co.
and the excellent quality of their
shoes. They have been advertising
extensively in this publication for
years and any of us have discovered
the economy of buying Mayer Shoes
for the whole family.

corset covers wear under Cle arms
when they may be in good condi-
ton otherwise. One satisfactory
way to repair this sort of break is
to set in a new piece.
Use a dress shield as a pattern,
making the pattern deeper and
more Of an oval than the shield.
Lay this pattern to the wrong
side of the blouse and see if it is
the right shape and large enough
to cover completely, the weak
spot.
A new piece of the blouse ma
terial can then be set in. with
beading or lace, matching that;on
the blouse perhaps, and quitting
so that it will not have the ap-
pearance of a patch.
A tear can often be disguised
by setting insertion in, in that
place, and in that way prolong-
ing the life of the garment.
Perhaps an almost new waist
has been apparently spoiled by a
burn or a hole made with acid,
or Disagreement caused by
stain. See if there cannot be a
medallion of some sort set in,
large enough to cover the bad
place entirely.
Unless the spot or hole comes
in the middle, it may be necessary
to set two medallions in-one on
each side of the front. But do
not try this sort of repairing I'm
less you feel certain it will work
out well.
