HARDW|CK MAY GET
OUT Of RACE So AS
TO HELP SLY HOWARD

ATLANTA, Ca, June THAT
Thomas W. Hardwick may not stay in
the race for the United States Sen
ate, but is being urged to retire and
throw his support to William Schley
Howard in an effort to defeat William
j. Harris, is the belief expressed in
well informed political circles.
The more or less cordial relation
existing between supporters of Mr..
Howard has been the occasion for re-
mark in many section of the state.
Mr.. Harris called attention to it in
his speech at Crawfordville on Tues
day. when he showed that the Hard
wick and Howard forces in Savannah
have formed a partnership against
him. Another instance cited by Mr..
Harris is that of Judge Newt Morris,
of Marietta, who was strong for Hard
wick until short time ago, and is
now claimed as supporter of Will
lam Schley Howard
The hope of the Howard forces is
that Hardwick's supporters will final
" desert him and come ever to the
Howard camp through animosity to-
ward william J. Harris, who has
never enjoyed the good will of the
Georgia senator. on account of his
loyal support of President Wilson as
contrasted with Senator Hardwick's
vicious and malevolent opposition to
practically every proposal and meas
ure advanced by the administration.

DOCTORS SAY CALOMEL
IS BEST MEDICINE

According to the worlds greatest
physicians and medical experts, Gallo
mel is the best and most universally
useful of all medicines. Medical au-
thorities prescribe calomel for almost
every disease and explain that it is
the best and surest of all system puri-
fiers. They say that calomel clenases
the liver, stomach, bowels and kid
neys and purifies the blood from all
poisons, making the system pure and
clean so that nature can quickly re-
store the health.
Now that science has purified Gallo
mel of all its nauseating and dan
gerous qualities, the new kind of calo-
mel, called "Calotabs", is even more
popular than the old. AS liver
cleanser and system purifier Calotabs
are more eqective that the old Gallo
mel, yet are entirely delightful in eff
feet. One Calotab at bedtime, with
swallow of water-that's all. No
nausea nor the slightest unpleasant
ness Next morning you awake feel
ing fine, with hearty appetite for
breakfast Eat what you please and
go where you please-there is no re-
striction of habit or diet.
Calotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-fve
cents. Your druggist recommends and
guarantees Calotabs, and will refund
your money if you are not delighted
with them.-(advt.)

EVERYBODY Get
READY FOR W. S. 5.
PLEDGE DAY JUNE 28

With the Red Cross Second War
Fund brought to a successful con-
clusion, there is nothing left now for
which the people of this country will
have to prepare Immediately, except
"Pledge Day" for war savings on June
l28th.
Until the Inauguration of the war
savings stamps as a method of help
ing uncle Sam and for teaching care
less Americans how to save, there
had never been any definite plan for
teaching the people of this country
how to save. Many people save on
hit and miss" plan, mostly miss
and as a consequence there were few
! real savers among the American peo-
pie. The war savings stamps teach
one to save Systematically, many per-
sons adopting the method of saving
one, two or more each week.
Under the system which everyone
will adopt on pledge Day" when they
agree to buy a certain number OF
stamps before December 31st there
will be a systematic saving in every
home in this country. The lesson of
thrift will be so thoroughly learned
by that time that it will have become
habit, and everyone will become
members of the big thrift army of
Uncle Sans government.
However, it was not with the view
of teaching the lesson Of thrift that
Uncle Sam started this big war saw
Iings campaign.It is because he needs
the money to run the government
of the United States, and it is the
people who are benefited by this gov
eminent who must support it. Uncle
Sam does not ask for a gift of your
money, he asks for merely loan.
Between now and June 2Sth, sit
down and figure out for yourself just
how much you are going to buy in the
way of war savings stamps before
December 31st. If you will think care
fully over the past six months, you
can probably find that expended your
money for many things that you could
lhave done very we'll without. 1t is the
money that you pay for these things
that you must in the future invest
in war savings stamps. When you
once commence to save, you will find
many other ways in which you can add
to your savings and in vest in these
war savings stamps.
Don't forget June 2Sth. Be ready
when you are asked to sign the
pledge.
