Wife Asks Officer
To Watch Street Cars
For Conductor Husband

The confusion and craning Of necks
which occurred at Marietta and For
syth streets Tuesday morning, has
an interesting, if somewhat hazy
explanation.
A crowd gathered around a weep
ing young woman, who sought
refuge under the sheltering wing of
the traffic officer standing under The
Semaphore in the middle of the
street. She sobbed out her story,
and when it had all been told, her
tears gave out, and she became an
CRY.
81 want you to find my husband"
she told the policeman. He's a
street car conductor, and will come
by here on street car in a few min
utes." She gave him description
of the husband, and then told the
story-one of the eternal triangle.
81 have been married TO- about
three weeks, and this morning. 1
was riding on his car, when a wom-
an came in and said she was his
wife. He didn't deny it, either And
now it seems I'm married to a man
who has two wives, and all l want
is to get hold of him."
Further information CLEANED from
the young woman was to the effect
that the husband left his first wife
in south Georgia town, came to
Atlanta and met the second woman
and married hire, and that now the
iirst wife has appeared on the scene.
The beWlldered traffic policeman
told wife No. 2 that he would be on
the lookout for the offending hus-

Contrary to popular opinion" he
stated, there is no great mystery

the ingredients of Tanlac have been
known and used as medicines for
centuries. Others are of more recent
discovery, but every one of them is
of recognized therapeutic value and
used by the medical profession ev-
erywhere. Tanlac is simply COM

Holland Attempting
To Keep Bolshevik.
Agents From Country

ROTTERDAM. Nov. 9.--Holland
has established a great Gordon along
the German frontier to prevent the
influx Of large numbers of Russian
bolsheVlk agents from Germany.
Heavy guards are maintained so that
persons wishing to cross the bound
airy in either direction must pass
through frontier posts and over
recognized highways. Those VINO
attempt to sneak across run the
risk of being shot,
These precautions have failed,
however, to, check the movement of
soviet agents. Men whom the po-
lice would like to interview have
been seen in this city and Amster-
dam, but when police set their drag
net for their quarry, the men want
ed have utterly vanished. Later
there usually comes information
that the suspects have been found
in Germany and are on their way

Thursday morning, not only a rec

breaker for speed in completing the
canvass, is the aim Of Chairman Jul
liam V. Boehm and his colleagues of
the executive committee of the Civil

of the enrolment this year.

ever got before, and get them quick

port we have received from public
spirited men, women, boys and girls

All departments of the drive are
practically in readiness to launch
their work next Thursday morning.
The downtown district will be can
vassed, from office to office and from
store to store. by the downtown di-
vision, composed of the Invest wire
civic workers in the city, who are
trained in covering the maximum
amount of territory in the minimum
of time, and sweeping things clean
as they go. While the downtown di-
vision is working its territory, the
girls with booths Will be on the JOD
in the lobbies of office buildings,
banks, hotels and other public
places. Persons mot enrolled in
their offices will be enrolled at the
booths as they pass back and forth.
Then Thursday night will come
the house-to-house canvass, which is
to be the mainstay and backbone of
the entire enrolment. This work
will be done by eleven sets of teams,
one in each city ward. They will
have assigned to them certain spe-
cific territory on the city map. Their
job will be to ring the door bell of

Every druggist in town has no.
ticed a great falling off in the sale
of Calomel. They all give the same
reason. Dodson's Liver Tone is TAX
ing it's place.
"Calomel is dangerous and peopls
know it." Dodso.'s Liver Tone Is
personally guaranteed by every
druggist who sells it. A large bot
tie doesn't cost very much but if
it fails to give easy relief in every
case of liver sluggishness and con-
stipation, just ask for your money
back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleas

edy, harmless to both children and
adults. Take. a spoonful at night
and wake up feeling fine; nc bill

Or constipated bowels. 1t doesn't
