ELECTRICAL HOME
FOR HOUSEWIVES

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 27.-On Peachtree
street in the heart of town there is an
exhibit which causes the average
housewife to long for pocketfull Of
money and an unlimited supply of ell
ectricity. 1t is an exposition of cleo
trical household machinery which en-
braces everything from a curling iron
to a combination churn, clothes wiring
er and feed cutter.
The windows and ailses are filed
with labor-saving devices which pro,e
how easily and economically many of
the hated duties of the woman house
keeper can be handled by the magic
juice" and from the way the women
are flocking to the show they welcome
a relief from drudgery.
Since the Georgia Railway and Pow
er company put in its great plant at
Tal!ulah Falls and cut the rate on cur
rent Atlanta is becoming more and
more and Electric City" The old
fashioned steam plants and their
smoky chimneys are being discarded
in favor of the clean and silent motor
and in nearly every home there is a
motor at work on sewing machine,
washing machine, vacuum cleaner or
some other household help
The company's power wires now
cover the territory between Tallulah
Falls and Atlanta and reach into many
North Georgia towns, and the farmers
are learning that electricity hitched
to machine is cheaper than human
power, even if that is furnished by
wife who works without wages.

Hay May Go
To Indies

Syracuse, N. Y, Aug. 27-The hay
crop this year will yield 69,000,000
tons bumper crop. If the foreign
markets are closed to the United
States. market will be found in the
West Indies. These islands have been
purchasing from Canada, but should
England put an embargo on Canadians
hay and take her crop, the United
States will furnish the Indies. Hay is
contraband of war. but, with Eng
land ruling the high seas, commerce
may be resumed and the hay crop Of
the United States could be marketed.
1t is pointed out that the market for
hay and it's valuation has changed
greatly in late years. Formerly the
hay was all taken to market and its
value set by that Now, the farmers
are feeding hay to their cattle and
marketing the milk, which puts Z new
phase on hay values.

SAVINGS BANK SITUATION
ABOUT NORMAL

New York, Aug. 27.-At the state
banking department it is said that the
savings bank situation has rapidly ap-
preached normal. Depositors who had
given sixty days notices of withdraw
as were stated to be. revoking them
in many instances. 1t was when the
European war had started that there
had been a pronounced tendency to-
ward withdrawing deposits from sa7-
ings institutions and putting them
in the postal savings banks, but now
the tide was the other way, the incen-
tive being the difference Of about 2
per cent. in interest rates.

not Wise
TO TAKE CALOMEL

Dodson's Liver Tone is just as
sure in results and always safe,
pleasant in taste and has no bad af-
ter-effects. AS a remedy for a tor
pid liver calomel. has more than met
its match in Dodson's Liver Tone.
This medicine does not roughly force
the liver on to perform it's work.
1t acts gently, but surely.
Calomel depends for it's power
upon exciting the liver to do more
work, and often the liver is too
weak to stand such treatment, and
after taking calomel you are as a
result sometimes worse off than be-
fore.
.Dodson's Liver Tone cannot cause
any of the dangerous effects that Of
ten follow the use of calomel 1t is
entirely vegetable and pleasant to the
taste, and is suitable for children and
grown people.
Get large bottle for fifty cents at
Hooks Pharmacy or Howell's Phar-
macy, or w. A. Rembert, druggist, I'M
der the guarantee that if it doesn't sat
isfy you that it perfectly takes the
place of calomel you will be given
your money back with smile right at
the store where you bought Dodson's
medicine. adv,
