PRAISE
STELLA-VITAE

We wantevery afflicted woman to try
at least one bottle of SteIla-Vitae on
our plain, open guarantee to return the
money paid for it if it does not benefit.
If you doubt our word that it will
relieve the distressing aches, pains and
misery peculiar to the diseases of wo-
men, read thetestimony of these women
who have tried it and are glad to tell
others what it has done for them. The
only interest they have in the matter
is that which any true woman feels in
helping tc relievethe sufferings OF other
women. You can believe them.
Mrs. J. F. Lee, Milstead, Ga, had
female complaint for years. Three bot
ties of STELLA-VITAE cured her, she
said, and added, 81 am certainly thank
ful for this great female tonic" Mrs.
Paralee Frazier, Longview, Tex, eX-
pressed appreciation of STELLA-VITAE
in these words: 81 cannot say too much
for this wonderful medicine. l had
taken other female medicines for two
years With no good results. l am truly
grateful fot She good STELLA-VITAE
has done me-" Mrs. Sandy Withers,
of Greensboro, Ala, was terrible suf-
ferer from female trouble-and ONLY a
woman knows what that means! Her
condition got so bad her pains threw
her into spells like fits. Her husband
feared she would lose her mind. The
Greensboro doctors pronounced her in
durable. Then somebody suggested
that she take STELLA-VITAE. She did
so. The first dose lightened her spells.
TELLA-VITAE is a perfectly harm
less com pound nditnot only alleviates
woman's pain, but builds up her
health; it stimulates her appetite, aids
digestion, quiets her nerves and clears
her complexion. Itimproves her per-
sonal appearance.
All dealers sell Stella-Vitae, and are
authorized to return the money PAID
for the first bottle lift does not benefit.

IRON CROSS FACTORY
runs DAY AND NIGHT
NEUTRAL AREAS TAKING ALL
DECORATIONS.

Coblenz, Feb. Correspondence of
The Associated Press.)-A factory at
FforZhenim near Karlsruhe has been
working day and night recently turn
ing GU tiron crosses to be sold to
American soldiers and other troops
eager for souvenirs of the war, ac-
cording to travellers from Germany
who arrived in Coblenz late in jan
uary. While the Berlin authorities
have discouraged the idea Of the
Germans selling iron crosses and
other war decorations to soldiers of
the Allies quite a business has been
built up in this line in the zones oc-
cupied by the British, French and
Americans. In COblenz and other
cities the burgomesaters have APP
pealed to the self respect of the trad
es people in endeavor to stamp out
the business Of selling the various
German medals and officers insignia.
But the souvenir business thrives
nevertheless, the merchants in the
neutral areas reporting that they can
ether decorations in any quality de-
sired. These are all brought from
unoccupied Germany, the supply in
the occupied part of the Rhineland
the Allies tack up the positions at
the three bridgeheads.
Owing to the fact that the authori
ties vii not isue permits for the ship
ment of honor medals into the occup-
led zones, travellers say that iron
crosses by the hundred and other
relices Of the war are being smuggled
across the border in great numbers.
Ii Coblenz during the latter part Of
January iron crosses sold in the stores
for from nine to twelve marks each.
When the Americans first came to
GOblenz the crosses were valued at
From five to nine marks. During the
war around the prisoner stockades,
ron crosses were sold to the Amer
cans at princes at ranging from fifty
francs to two hundred francs.
The factory at Pforzheim which has
has been manufacturing the crosses
tCr the souvenir hunters is the same
ne which had contract from the
German government for years for the
making Of the iron crosses given to
The German soldiers for acts of BRAY
ery M the battlefield.

Blue LAWS
FOUGHT IN ATLANTA
Missionary Society Finds Strong op-
position Among Members of
Council on Closing the
Drink Stands.

Atlanta, March 19.-An effort to Sc
cure absolutely rigid Sunday blue
laws for Atlanta is being strongly op-
posed in many quarters as the feeling
is that tire city already has sufficient
y drastic laws governing Sunday
sales.
The question came up through the
presentation of a petition from one
OF the missionary societies Of the city
,sling that section 1777 of the city
code be repealed This section al
lows the sale Of soft drinks, ice
cream, tobacco, cigars, cigarettes and
similar commodities. Council mem
heEs have expressed strong opposi-
ton to- the repeating of the section,
and in some quarters, the hope has
been expressed that more lenient
laws than those now in force might
be enacted
The question OF Sunday blue laws
has been agitated not only in Atlanta
but III other cities and counties as
well. lnDekalb county recently the
situati3n really became rather humor-
Gus. The county had the most rigid
Sunday laws imaginable, the sale of
gasolenc even not being allowed
tesidents of the county, particularly
those owning automobiles and motor
lists from ether parts of the state,
were violently opposed to such dras-
tic laws, and the county began to find
Itself in a hotbed of discussion. The
eventual result was that everybody
almost simultaneously it seemed de-
cided to ignore the laws; and, as the
court officers were conveniently in
observant at times, the Sunday blue
laws became, in practise at least, null
and void

ARE YOUR EYES
BRIGHT and CLEAR?
Nothing So Attractive AS Clear
Bright Ewes.

You cannot look your best and
feel sluggish or constipated, and
nothing adds so much to, especially,
woman's looks as clear, bright,
sparkling eyes. Constipation is truly
the greatest enemy to womankind,
and modern modes of living are
very conducive to a torpid condition.
Lamarine Waters, "Thc Ideal Laxa-
tive" are pleasant to take, are eaten
like candy rather than taken like
sickening pills or tablets, and they
bring that clear, fresh, clean look so
admired by everybody A whole

without the slightest discomfort.

WILSON'S WORDS FOR
MONUMENT TO LAFAYETTE

Baltimore, February 25-President
Wilson sent to Mayor Preston today
an inscription for one side of the
proposed monument for one side Of
the proposed monument to La Fayette
to be erected in Mount Vernon square
1t is as follows:
la Fayette, immortan because a
self-fopgetful servant of justice and
humanity. Beloved by all men because
he acknowledged no duty more sacred
than to fight for the freedom of his
fellowmen."
The mayor asked for two inscrip-
tions--one to be written by Presid-
ent Poincare, of France the country
Of La Fayette and the other by Pre-
sident Wilson. President Poincare's
inscription was received several
days ago.

In a neighboring city certain doc

it back again. The reason they gave
when the doctor sued to get his phone
reinstated was that doc" swore over
the wires. What effect this had on the
wires was not stated, but the tele-
phone girls complained to the mana
ger, and the management did the rest.
The rest consisted in removing the

the range and let DOC" cuss his head

office or domicile. The doctor denies
the charges. Also, he urges that he
must have a telephone for the benefit
Of the public health and his own ne
cessities.
without trying the case in the news
papers it is safe to assume that some
thing must have occurred not once but

THE REAL AMERICAN GUN

Says The Triton Gazette:
1t now develops that in addition to
surprising the Germans in every
other fighting capacity American gen
ius and American ability had had al
so out gunned them. Recently Rear
Admiral Plunkett told how the Ameri
can 14-inch naval rifle with range
of 30 miles silenced the German Big
Bertha" which had been Smelling
Paris and caused much establishment,
indignation and terror among the Ger
mans around Metz. In the last days
of the war the United States has six
of these big guns at work on the
front, intended primarily to cut Ger
many's railroad communications and
their work surpassed anything accom-
plished on either aide up to that time
The guns were sent over by the navy
under the command of Rear Admiral
PlunketS and although no detail
story of their work has been given out
some facts TRANSFERRED at a recent
meeting OF the House Committee on
Naval Affairs.
When the armistice came these
guns had been placed in position to
cut German communication with Metz
and isolate that fortress. Folty.four
had been sent over and six were in
action. The first was sent over and six
were in action The first was sent to
challenge the German Bertha which
was Smelling Paris. "The day the
American gun was placed in position
Bertha withdrew and that was the last
heard of her" Bertha was al freak;
the United States weapon a real gun
There was nothing like it on the AL
lies side and French ordnance officers
went long way to look at it. The
guns were mounted on especial built
railway cars and +wers o in action at
Scissors, Fortenoy-Ampleny, Charney
near Nancy. Montmedy and Long
uyon. The destruction wrought bl the
guns was terrific, in blowing up am
munition dumps, interrupting rail
road traffic and disorganizing trans
portation systems. The shells did not
make big hole, only going down
abou six feet, but the pieces would
fly for mile. One of the shells strck

out. They could not get the guns and

Our guns were within two kilometers
of the trenches. We moved right in
on top of them, and our objective

in back of there. A place called
Sarrebourg was one, and Benestroff
was another.

would begin to start things going as

BACK TO SCHOOL.

Valdosta Times: Now that the war
is over and the soldiers are coming
home, some of them without employ
ment and many others without the
educational training which they
should have had, the cry of ''back to
school" is being heard all over the
United States. In Texas reports say
that nearly 10000 children failed to
enroll in the schools last week Gov
eminent reports state that there
were 100000 men registered for SER
vice in the United States army who
could neither read not write.
One of the excellent things about
the organization of our army was that
provision was made for teaching
many of the boys in the training
camps The result was that many
young men received the rudiments
of limited education while they
were training to fight their country's
battles.
Among the men who were taken to
the war were hundreds and thousands
of men engaged in educational pur.
suits. There were vast numbers Of
college boys and high school boys
that were taken away from their
studies and carried to the war. Many
of these boys are left in France some
of them sleeping the sleep that knows
no waking while others are still con,
nected with the army. The exigency
Of the war put a terrible strain upon
our national educational resources,
not only in taking teachers from
their desks, but also in taking pupils
who in a few months, or year Of two
at most, would have been ready to
take up their work as educators.
AS an offset to the drain upon the
schools and colleges as the result OF
taking their strong men to the army
it is necessary now to do everything
possible to repair the damage and to
fill up gaps that were made by the
call to war. In Georgia, as we'll as in
the other states Of the union, we
should join the back to school, move
ment, not only in seeing teachers and

BETTER THAN GAS PLANT

The Dispatch for several days has
been under the impression that our
friends, the local power plant owners
have been ouitely and automatically
doing their best to make the people
~ Cordele believe they need gas
plant. They appeal to the house keep
ers through reference to the fact that
a. gus range will solve the servant
problem, This is mighty COED looking
argument. 1t has a sweetened touch
and favor that would catch ordinar'
lily,
But
They do not tell you that an cleo

convenience and for even cooking
This kind of range burns nothing.
bakes cakes, and boils dinner,-oh,
it is painful to think that we must
continue to live for forever without
an electric range where you have
nothing to do but to press the button
to get an instant heat for any kind
Of cooking Bless you, we could have
that electric range now, if we ever
could get fuel current rate that
would half way permit it, and we
could have the range anywhere in this
community,-ev in the homes of
the poorest,
The present price of a poor load
of wood,--you get a few good ones
is $500, if the wood man can hold
you up and get you to pay it. The
truth is, we pay unreasorably high
prices for cooking fuel, right here
in the pine country, A fuel rate can
be given this community by the local
plant which would enable you to use
an electric range and do away with
that robbery for wood. Wood plain
ly getting to where you cannot use it
for cooking. If you will measure the
cost, you will agree.
There is no waste in the use Of the
electric current. You use it till you
complete the meal and then stop it.
The local power plant is the ideal
producer, economically, and you
could be given fuel rate of three
cents per hour The local plant would
be getting all this money we are
throwing away for wood and thus
would have day load which would
enable them to show an earning.
They have their wires charged all
day and then argue that nobody uses
it so as to make it profitable for them
to carry a day load. In the meantime
the housekeepers are at home frett-
ing over the poor wood and the waste
in cooking noon mea1,-and throw
ing more money into the fuel expense
There is something wrong. A gas
plant will do nothing but improverish
