An Impetus to Trade

Now that the currency ques-
tion is practically settle d,
business is taking a new boom.
The stock market trading,
which had been in a panicky
state for several weeks. toned
up preceptibly last Saturday,
just as soon as the news went
out that the United States Sen
ate had passed the Currency
Bill. President Wilson was
insistent that the new tariff
must have as a companion to
make il successful, a new Cur
rency law. and the business
men of the country, also realiz-
ing that suck must be the case
have waited for the currency
legislation before they pushed
ahead with their business ven
lures.
Now, we expect to see the
wheels 90 round" with greater
force and activity than for sew
eral years past.

The indications are that Sena-
tor Jesse d. Price. of Wicomico
County, will be reelected Presi-
dent of the Maryland Senate

officers who ever presided over

words of praise for Mr.. Price,
and it is generally conceded
that he will have very little, if
if any opposition. for the Presi-
dency.

Medicines patched me up for awhile
but then would get worse again. Final

bought me a bottle and began using it.
1t did me more good than all the medi-
cines had taken.

been benefited by It's use. There never
has been, and never will be, medicine

a good medicine for all womanly trou-

For over so years, Cardui has been re-
lieving woman's sufferings and building

If you are woman, give it fair trial.

EXPECT FEW CHANGES
IN SCHOOL BOOKS
Probably Postponed Action Until The
Commission Reports.

Atlanta, Oct. 24.-It is now a ques-
ton whether the majority of the nu-
merous Representatives of book put
fishing houses in the north and east
will not find that they have come here
uselessly, following the meeting of the
State Board of Education tomorrow.
While the board in it's capacity as
school book commission. called for
bids to be submitted on that date for
books to be used in the public schools
of the state for the next five year
period, there now seems to be a grow
ing impression that majority of its
members regret not having followed
the legislative suggestion of postpon-
ing an adoption until the pending in
vestigation could be completed, as was
urged by Gov. Slaton and State School
Superintendent NJ L. Britain.
AS result of this somewhat changed
attitude, as report now goes, it is con-
sidered more than probable that while
the board is not likely to withdraw it's
call for bids, comparatively few
changes will be made and these only
of a minor Importance. If this esti-
mate of the situation is correct AMI
the board thus effectively carries GU.
the legislative suggestion, the army of
book representatives which has been
here for some days will have achieved
small results.
When the Legislature appointed the
commission to investigate the school
book situation in Georgia, and report
to the next session, it authorized the
state board to renew the existing book
contracts, subject to abrogation at any
time on twelve months notice Thu
power of the state board to renew pres
ent contracts so that the people o.
the state would not be put to unneces
sary expense in changing books in tn
event an entirely new system whici
would call for a new adoption shoult
be established by the Legislature, d
the result of the investigating commit,
tees report. Gov Slaton and Super
intendent Britain saw all this clear.
and that was why the governor point
ed out that to call for bids now an
make a sweeping change in the schoo
books of the state might possibly meal
> three changes of books within a periO
of two years.
The present book contract are hel
by companies which have agents an
agencies within the state. They natur
ally resent the fact under the circum
stances that they are to be called upoI
to submit bids in competition with ouT
side concerns for a book adoption
which at best might last no more thai
twelve months.
