ADVERTISE TO
RESTORE TRADE
EXPERT ADVISES

ATLANTA, Feb 1S-That liberal use
of newspaper advertising space is the
surest and quickest way to stimulate
a return to normal business, accord
ing to advice which has been present
ed to Atlanta firms by the United
States department of labor, which is
exceedingly anxious for everything to
move forward at the earliest possible
moment.
Roger W. Babson, director general
of the department, in a letter to At
lanta advertising agencies and bust
ness men, says, the surest and quick
est way to bring back business to it's
prewar basis is to overcome the
general apathy in buying which exists
in the minds of many people at pres
emit Advertising will do this"
That the opinions of Mr.. Babson, a
noted expert on economic questions
coincide with the views of Atlanta
business concerns, is shown by the
fact that they are going after business
with more vigor at this time than ever
before, and the public are buying lib
orally on the confident assurance of
good times ahead.

She wants to be entertained, amused,
interested 1t is crime for her to
i've with that man."
How long have. you known her,
Neil?"
81 met her right after she married
Orton-about four years ago."
1 asked no more questions, but
couldn't help wondering if, had she
been free when he met her, he woulO
have married her? It was foolish to
make myself miserable over such a
thing and determinedly l put it from
me. He had not married Blanches,
and he had married me. 1t would not
be because did not try to hold him
by every means in my power if she, or
any.other woman, took him away from
me.
Blanche Orion had boosted that she
always got what she wanted, always
had her own way life, in the big as
well as in the little things. But surely
there was limit to her desires. She
was flirt-that everybody knew; but
probably that was all it amounted to,
just Irritation with Neil and others
because she was bored by an invalid
husband I would not be jealous.
1t is surprising how much one can
accomplish even in such things if they
love, and if they do not give up to
useless repining and unhealthy emo
ton. So at this time it was only by
spells that my jealousy asserted itself.
But that other misgiving uneasi-
ness concerning Neil himself, grew up
on me in spite of all my endeavors to
Danish it.

BARBARA DECIDES NOT TO BE
JEALOUS OF BLANCHE ORTON.
CHAPTER Xxx.

When Neil came home the next
afternoon l asked him some ques-
lions about the business upon which
he was engaged with the two men
who were our guests the night before.
At breakfast he had been absolutely
unapproachable.
What do you want to know? You
wouldn't understand if / tried to tell
you" The same answer he invariably
gave me. But l had a reply for him
this time:
"Mr. Frederick didn't seem to think
me so dumb He talked of the oil
wells to me and told me a great deal
about them because he saw / was in
terested If l can understand him,
think l could you, dear, when l care
so much more because it's you"
"Oh, want to sell some shares in
prospective oil wells. That is all"
Are they good wells?"
I've don't know-yet 1t takes
money to find out"
And that was what MIR. Frederick
meant when he talked about being
open and above board, wasn't it? Not
to take money without the people
knowing just what it was to be used
for?"
Il thought Frederick was game! he's
a regular old woman. But he doesn't
have all the say, not by long shot.
I'll put the thing through in spite OF
him. Now for PHYS sake don't ask
any more questions! Do give man
little peace in his own home" And as
he so often did now when annoyed, he
opened the cellarette and took a drink
l said no more. 1t would only make
him drink more. Besides he was too
clever, too crafty to give me the true
reasons for anything he did if he
thought I would disapprove
spoke of Blanche orion and re-
marked l thought she looked very
stunning the night before 1 would
say nothing derogatory even of her
clothes.
Clearly, Neil was not anxious to talk
of her. and in reply he only said:
Blanche is always stunning"
rs she happy with her husband%'
Il don't think them suited to one
another"
If he's such an invalid she may have
a chance to try it a second time" l
hoped to draw Neil out
Il hope she'll get someone who is
worthy of her, if she does"
When one is in love, as | was with
Neil, intuition seizes quickly upon the
slightest thing. His use of the word
worthy" had seemed strange as ap-
piled to Blanche orion.
Isn't Mr.. Orion a good man."
Hes a stupid ass"
"Why-Neil Forbes! what way to
talk of him. meant isn't he good NOR
ally. and isn't he squared in bust
ness?"
"Yes-I guess he is both. But
clever woman like Blanche orion
wants more than goodness in man.

GEORGE BRAGG
MAKES GOOD HIS
SOLDIER BOAST.

When George H. Bragg, some of Po-
lice Lieut. and Mrs. John Bragg, left
Americas at II years of age to join
our army that was bound overseas, he
told his mother that he would not be
back until he had reached the Kaiser's
domain. And at last he has reached
there-an, therefore, his parents are
assuming that he will be home before
a great while now.
George hasn't written many letters
home since he has been on the other
side, but one just received from him
by his mother, written January %
from the banks of the Rhine, where he
is with the army of occupation. 1t is
dated at FIT. Ehrinbreitstein, and fol-
lows, in part:

No matter what ails your child, a gentle, thorough laxative should al- ways be the first treatment given.
 If your little one is out of sorts, half-sick, isn't resting, eating and act ing naturally-look, Motherl see if tongue is coated. This Is a sure sign that the little stomach, liver and bow els are clogged with waste. When cross, irritable, feverish, stomach sour, breath bad or has stomach-ache, diar- rhea, sore throat, full of cold, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs" and in few hours all the con- stipated poison, undigested food and sour bile gently moves out of the lit- tie bowels without griping, and you have well, playful child again.
 Mothers can rest easy after giving this harmless fruit laxative" because 1t never fails to cleanse the little one's liver and bowels and sweeten the stom- ach and they dearly love its pleasant taste. Full directions for babies, chill dren of all ages and for grown-ups printed on each bottle.

Weekly Health Talks GOING BACK TO NATURE
BY DIR. ". LUCAS.

People get sick because they go to get well is to go back. Something grows out of the ground in the form of vegetation to cure almost every ill. Some of these vegetable growths are understood by man, and some are not. Animals, it would seem, know what to do when they are sick better than noted that a sick horse, dog or cat will stop eating food and seek out some vegetable growth in the field or yard, which, when found and eaten, often restores appetite and health. Haven't you seen these animals do this very thing yourself?
 Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. r., long since found the herbs and roots provided by Nature to overcome constipation, and he had these vegetabl collected and made up of Mayapple, leaves of Aloe, root of Jalap, into little white sugar-coated pills, that he called Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. You must understand that when your in- testines are stopped up, poisons and de- cayed matter are imprisoned in your sys- tenn, and these are carried by the blood throughout your body. Thus does your head ache, you get dizzy, you can't sleep, your skin may break out, your appetite de- clines, you get tired and despondent As a matter of fact, you may get sick all over. Don't you see how useless all this suffering is? All that is often needed is a few of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, which he has placed in all drug stores for your convenience and health. Try them by all means. They are probably the very thing you need right now.

 The question of disarmament was first raised, since reports from the peace conference indicate that it is occupying a large place in discussions there.

To be possessed of head of heavy, beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy, wavy and free from dandruff is merely a matter of using a little Danderine.
 It is easy and inexpensive to have nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get a small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine now-it costs but few cents-all drug stores recommend it-apply a little as directed and within ten minutes there will be an appearance of abundance, freshness, fluffiness and an incompara- ble gloss and lustre, and try as you will you cannot find trace of dandruff or falling hair; but your real surprise will be after about two weeks use, when you will see new hair-fine and downy at first-yes-but really new hair-sprouting out all over your scalp -Danderine is, we believe, the only sure hair grower, destroyer of dan- druff and cure for itchy scalp, and 1t never fails to stop falling hair at once.
 If you want to prove how pretty and soft your hair really Is, moisten a cloth with little Danderine and carefully draw 1t through your hair-taking one small strand at time. Your hair will be soft, glossy and beautiful in just a few moments-a delightful surprise awaits everyone who tries this. Adv.
