No young woman, IN the JOY of
coming motherhood, should neglect
to prepare her system for the physi.
cal ordeal she is to undergo. The
health of both herself and the coming
child depends largely upon the care
she bestows upon herself during the
waiting months. Mothers Friend
prepares the expectant mothers sys.
tenn for the coming event. and its usa
makes her comfortable during all the
term. It works with and for nature,
and by gradually expanding all It's
sues, muscles and tendons, involved,
and keeping the breasts in good con.
dition, brings the woman to the crisis
in splendid physical condition. The
baby, too, is more apt to be perfect and
strong where the mother has thus
prepared herself for natures supreme
function. No better advice could ba
given a young expectant mother than
that she use Mothers Friend; it is a

The continued growth of this Juvenile De-
partment since its inception just two years. ago
has as its only reason the service it has offered
the mothers of Atlanta
They came because they found here what
they wanted. And the coming of women in great
er numbers gave the opportunity to increase
stocks, to make the department more and more
helpful, season after season.
And larger stocks mean greater and more
varied SURPRISES toward the end of the season.
When the disposal-the clearance--of these sur
pluses begins it means greater bargains for you.
Below are some of these bargains made pos
sible by your appreciation of and cooperation

ing that probably seventyfive
per cent of our voters have q
very meager knowledge of what
is proposed as a change, and con-
sidering the haste and withhold
ing of information tends to ar
ouse a suspicion that there is a
scheme covered up in this at
tempt to fasten something upon
the people that will not be for
the general welfare. Let US be
thoughtful and make due inquiry
as to what may be proposed. We
all know pretty we'll what we
have, but so far we are largely
in the dark as to what we may
get by the adoption of the pro-
posed changes. If this should
prove an attempt to fasten upon
our state something that would
net tend to our veal, then if not
permitted to have knowledge of
what is proposed and not per-
mitted to vote separately upon
each change proposed, then vote
the VIII ole down. AS a state, to
get few grains of good we canI
not vote to take pounds of things
manifestly wrong. l cannot SO
and vote; and my advice
S to scan every proposition sub
nitted carefully and if found
wanting in merit, and in case op-
oortunity is not furnished to en-
ighten the voter as to what the
;hanges may be, then vote a big

FOR FLETCHER'S
GAS ORIA
And Then Some.

MAN comes into this world
without his consent, and leaves
it against his will. During his
stay on earth his time is spent in
one continuous round of contra
ries and MISUNDERSTANDING by
the balance of the species.
In his infancy he is an angel;
in his boyhood he is a devil; in
his manhood he is everything
from a lizard up; in his duties he
is a damn fool; if he raises a fam
lily he is a chump; if he raises a
small check he is a thief, and the
law raises the devil with him; if
he is a poor man, he is a poor
manager and has no sense; if he
is rich he is dishonest but con-
sidered smart; if he is in politics
you can't place him, as he is an
undesirable citizen; if he goes to
church, he is a hypocrite; if he
stays away from church. he is a
sinner and damned; if he donates
to foreign missions. he does it
for show; if he doesn't, he is
stingy and a tight wad.
When he first comes into the
world, everybody wants to kiss
him; before he goes out they all
want to kick him.
If he dies young there was a
great future before him; if ne
lives to a ripe old age he is sim
ply in the way and living to save
funeral expenses.
This life is a funny road, but
we all like to travel it just The
