Music Festival
at Macon Grows

During the last three years in our
neighbor city, Macon, there has grown
ND a Music Festival which a promi-
raept official of the Metropolitan Op-
era organization in Atlanta last week
pronounced The most important in
America"
"Most important" said the official,

famed artists on its program, which
no other festival ever attempted Fur
Ethermore, most important because Of
its musical scheme which Mr.. Jas.
G. Huneker, musical editor of the New

The Festival opens this year with
Rosa Ponselle who after six months
study sang in the Metropolitan Opera
sfopposife" Caruso, and with such
overwhelming power that in one
might she was acknowledged the
greatesf dramatic soprano of our time.
The array of great musicians on
che program is amazing: Sophie Bras
nau, Schumann-Heink, Alma Gluck,
Anna Fitziu, Giovanni Martinelli, Car
cnlina Lazzari, Frances Aida and Giu-
seppi de Luca. Every one among the
iZimbalist RIischa Elman, two of the
greatest singers of our time.
Then there Is another group: Efrem

bottled only by modern plants where
the utmost sanitation prevails. Sold
in bottles, it reaches the purchaser

These groups present the choicest
passages Of some of the most popular
operas, in addition to personal pro-

Another distinctive feature is the
blending of the New York Chamber

to reinforce the artists, and at the
same time add the contributions of the
instruments in various combinations
as well as in ensembles.
The advance ticket sales have been
unprecedented, giving gratifying evil

Luxury. Taxes
Effective Today

Americus dealers, along with 9th
ers throughout Georgia and the ma
tion, today began the collection
of luxury" taxes for the federal
government and the ertswhile
careless citizen who is wont to
cast nickel upon the alabaster
counter in payment for a dope"
henceforth will have to deposit
an additional penny as his share
of the government war expenses.
Beginning today Uncle am needs
more money to pay his war bills
and rehabilitation expenses.
Therefore, he now requires PEN
ny for each dime or fraction
thereof paid for soft drinks, ice
cream and such connections.
1t is entirely different from the
new tax on candies, and the old
and the new super taxes on cigars,
cigarettes and tobacco. The dealer
is supposed to pay the tobacco
tax and pass ton to the GUS
TONER in higher prices.
( This luxury tax" as it has
been called, ismply is an eXten-
sion of the war tax which the pub
lie has been poying for some time
on tickets to theaters, motion pic
ture shows and other amusements.
The extension which began today
covers a wide field, including many
articles of clothing, from petit
coats to mems shirts, an dapplying
particularly to soft drinks.
Welcome the thought, altera-
tions are not taxable, SO there is
hope for the 'made-oyer" the
patched shoes, clothing and vari-
Gus and sundry other things. Note

of repeating the tax at its next
fsession so it may not last for

government. The merchnats and

1t is dangerous to take any chances
with acid stomach. So test your own
case and find ont for sure whether
acid-stOmach is the cause OF your ill
health. Here is the surest and most
simple test for you to make: Go to

lets that you eat like a bit of candy.
II you have acid-stomach, EATONIC
will clean out the excess acid and
bring such wonderfully quick relief
that you will think it almost too good
to be true. It makes the stomach
clean, sweet, cool and comfortable.
You can almost feel it work as il drives
the gas and bloat out of your body.
You will feel like your old time self
agaln-get back your pep, enthusiasm
and energy-be hearty, hungry, vigor-
ofs, keen, eager to be up and coming.
If you are not entirely pleased with
your test OF EATONIC, take it back to
your druggist. Our orders are that he
wall refund your money. Your word
is good enough for us, so make this
test OF EATONIC TODAY.
