BEWAREOF
LAXATIVES
If You Are Constipated and Have
Malaria In Your System
Read The Following

The only way to overcome conStl-
patton and the resultant ills is to get
your liver in good working order. BY
taking just laxatives you do not touch
the liver One man of our acquai1l-
tance was a sufferer from constipa-
tion for years. He had taken salts,
oil, pills and various laxatives until
his skin was like parchment. The man
actually looked twenty years older
than he was. He had gotten in such
shape that he never had a natural
bowel movement and even the
various laxatives that he was using
had to gradually be increased to get
tany effect.
He was never well and yet could,
if asked, point to no special illness.
He was a victim of general ills-all
caused from one trouble-if he had
but known it. 1t took only one bot
tie of PLANK'S BLOOD MEDICINE
to give this man new lease on life
and after six bottles he is now as
fat, rosy and health as he was when
he was boy. The secret of his won-
derful recovery is in the action of
this scientific preparation on the liv-
er and blood. He never takes a lax
ative now and the bowels are regu-
lar. The digestion is good. The lin
ing of the stomach and bowels are
now able to absorb nourishment from
the food which had been passing out
of the body unassimilated.
This grave condition was due to
LAXATIVES which do not ASSIST
NATURE, but instead sap the life
from the walls of the stomach and
bowels.
PLANK'S BLOOD MEDICINE is
now carried by Nathan Murray,
druggist, and all good drug stores.

READY TOHANDLE
BIG PEACH CROP
Fruit Exchange Expect
ing From 5000 to
10000 Cars

ATLANTA, April ga bumper
peach crop for Georgia, estimated at
between 5000 and 1000 cars, was
forecast at a meeting of representa-
tives of the Southern Railway, the
Central of Georgia, the Pennsylvania
Railroad, the Fruit Growers Express
and the Georgia Fruit Exchange, held
in the Southern Railway building
here, at which arrangements for rush
ing the Georgia fruit to Eastern and
Western markets were completed.
AS in past years, the peaches from
south Georgia orchards will be con-
centrated in Atlanta and handled in
solid trains over the Southern to Po-
tomac yards, the great railway gate
way just across the Potomac river
from Washington, for distribution to
New York and other Eastern markets,
and to Cincinnati for distribution to
Western markets.
Peaches leaving the Fort Valley
District as late as SPIN. will be
brought to Atlanta over the Central
of Georgia and delivered to the
Southern during the early morning
hours. AS enough peaches arrive to
make full trains they will be dis
patched, the last section to leave At
lanta at am. This will give
arrival in Potomac yards at IL 80
pm. the second night after leaving
Atlanta with fourth morning deliv-
cry in New York. The schedule
adopted will be the same as that in
effect last year, the railway officials
feeling that present conditions do not
warrant a return this year to the
faster schedules which were in effect
in pre-war days.
Arrangements for icing peaches at
the Southern's Inman yards in At
lanta will be the same as in past
years. Cars for the east will be re-
ceived at Spencer, N. c., and Poto-
mac yards, and for the west at Chat
tanooga, Tenn, and Cincinnati. :
In order to prevent the dumping
of peaches on crowded markets, the
Georgia Fruit Exchange will re-es-
tablish it's arrangements for the dis
tribution of peaches from Potomac
yards and Cincinnati. Cars will be
moved from Atlanta billed to these
terminals where representatives of
the Fruit Exchange will be stationed
to see that they are diverted to points
where they are in demand.

Aspironal Relieves Pain In Two
Minutes. Prevent Return By
Removing Cause. Absolutely
Safe.

Doctors and druggists are delight
ed with the new Aspironal Elixir
which relieves the pain of headache
in two minutes and also removes the
cause by gently acting on the liver,
overcoming biliousness and constipa-
tion and thereby preventing the re-
turn of the headache next day. Doc
tors especially recommend Aspironal
for the reason that it is not danger
Gus to the heart and does not upset
the stomach
The next time you have a headache
go to your nearest drug store, hand
the clerk half a dollar for a bottle
of Aspironal and tell him to serve
you two teaspoonfuls in little wa
ter. With your watch in your hand
count off two minutes and call for
your money back, as per manufacture
er's guarantee, if you can't feel your
headache fading away within the
coughs and neuralgia.
time limit. Your druggist invites and
expects you to try Aspironal so don't
be bashful. Everybody is doing it.
Same guarantee applies to colds.

Deadly Snake in Bananas.

Patrons of a prosaic grocery store
in q sedate Iowa community had an
exciting taste Of tropical adventure a
few days ago. A bunch OF bananas
which had been ripening in the store
for q week suddenly gave up strange
and brilliant snake, about three feet
long and unpleasantly active. Taken
in glass-covered box to local school,
the reptile was identified as bush
master, most deadly Of South Amer

ish-yellow in color. with row OF
large, diamond-shaped patches from
head to tail, the latter being Dlack'
with stripes of pinkish-yellow. 1t 's

lance, but grows even larger than that

*Perhaps No other by-product Of the

foundiy as the British announcement
of home rule for Malta" says bull
letin Of the National Geographic so

'The date of Christ's birth is but

gan ten nations have held sway over
the coveted islands, beginning with
the Phoenicians of Paul's time, and
running a scale of Greeks, Cartha-

mans, Spaniards and French, until the
present sovereignty of the British.
'It has been said that Malta's chron-
icle holds, in microcosm, the history
of Europe, and that its archaeological
remains mark each step in western

messenger delivered his message to

You May Not Know 1t, But This Interests You

Ichthyol is drug that attacks with peculiar force
the germs of dangerous diseases for instance Bacillus Coli
and Staphylococcus.
The colon bacillus kills thousands of children every
year It is believed although proved that it travels
through the walls of the intestnes affecting the kidneys
and causing in children pylitis, disease that has worried
many mothers
It is therefore good that American has
succeeded in manufacturing this product of quality and
strength from 200 to 400 per cent greater than that of the
Ichthyol hitherto imported from abroad 1t is important
that should know how to do chemical work
in this country from the simple making of anne dyes

ing disease.
Those not much interested in disease WILL be in

power to destroy disease germs made from fossil marine

There Won't BE ANY
LEAGUE OF NATIONS
o Use Therefore of Specializing About England

The New York World asks this intellectual question
concerning the War League of Nations:
docs any sane human being really think that
when the House of Commons ratified the covenant, it
tore up the British constitution and transferred to
foreign council its absolute control British ships
and sodiers?"
No, NOBODY thinks that The War League Of Ma
tons is really BRITISH league England ruin Italy
by refusing COAL England put France at the mercy
of her enemies the east by destroying financial and
naval assistance England controls many votes in the
League besides her six to our one.
England Is the War League of Nations and will rule
that War League.
When the House of Commons ratified it, England
planned include in her absolute control the United
States its men, ships and money, in addition to British
ships and soldiers That Englands intelligent idea
She thought she had us in trap.
She is of course quite willing to go into agreement
that would give her control of United States And
if the to the worst if the United States should
refuse to obey foreign orders then with regulation British
business ability England could officially wipe out and
dsclam the debt of five thousand million dollars that she
the United States And that would be worth saving
However, as the world and everybody must know,
there isn't going to BE any War League Of Nations far
this country is concerned and that smpifes it ALL
It is foolish to cross in your mind bridge that is
never to be built Europe may have War League she
chooses
We have here Peace League including forty eight
American States and NO outsiders That suits and
the people will vote to keep it so.
