CALOMEL USERS
TAKE AWFUL RISK
Very Next Dose of TreacherOus Drug
! May Start Terrible Salvation

very -NtAI DOSe OF ITedCncrOuS Drug
May Start Terrible Salvation
The next dose of calomel you take
may salivate you. 1t may shock your
liver or start bone necrosis. CGlomel
is dangerous. 1t is mercury, quicksil-
yer. 1t crashes into sour bile like
dynamite, cramping and sickening
you. Calomel attacks the bones and
should never be put into your system.
If you feel bilious, headachy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get bottle Of bod
sons Liver Tone for a few cents
which is a harmless vegetable sub
stitute for dangerous calomel. Take
a spoonful and if it doesn't start your
liver and straighten you up better
and quicker than nasty calomel and
without making you sick, you just
go Lack and get your money.
Don't tcke calomel! 1t can not be
trusted any more than a leopard or
wildcat Take Dodson's Liver Tone
which straightens you right up and
makes you feel fine. No salts neces-
sary. Give it to the children because
it is perfectly harmless and can not

There Is still another way in
which colorful, inexpensive material
may be utilized in the home. One
especially good way IS on the 1nfor-
NAL dining table. To-day's sketch
shows such an arrangement.
Cotton crepe was again utilized
to play the leading role. Any other
cotton goods which show the same
delectable shades may be substi-
tuted. A long runner Of the light
green crepe was cross stitched with
a white peacock at either end. OBJ
long doilies We're made with small
peacocks in one corner, and they
are used when more than two per-
sons dine. The napkins, 1 think,
however, give the most delight. Dr.
minutive affairs, they are cut square
and fringed on all sides. In the cor
ner a small cluster of colored, en-
broidered flowers are placed. These
may be done in cross stitch or
French knots or any way which IS
your favorite.

Civilians to Meet
Rotarians in Big
Ball Game Wed. Is

The biggest baseball game in the
history of Marietta has been post
poned until next Wednesday, In
other words, the Civilians and Rota-
,rians will clash next Wednesday in
stead of the day previously announ-
ced.
This game should be 'humdinger'
The rivalry between the two clubs is
at high pitch. Both teams are out
for blood. 1t was learned from an
authentic source that the Rotarians
have been practicing for the past sew
eral days. But when this rumor is
quoted in the camp of the Civilians
they exchange winks and mods that
would suggest that they have been
putting in some overtime themselves.
Any way the game will be one that
the whole family will enjoy. The
gate receipts will go to help the local
ball team put the field in better con-
dition. So come out and help a good
cause and at the same time spend an
enjoyable afternoon.

WATERMELON CONTEST
WON BY ROSWELL MAN

Traffic was blocked for a consider
able time this morning in front of
Dunn-Dickson & Company's store
while about thirty delicious water
melons were sliced and offered to
whosoever desired, gratis.
The melons were brought in by
farmers from different sections of
the county in a contest for a prize
of $500 in gold offered by Dunn
Dickson & Company last spring when
they were selling Kleckley seed.
First prize was won by J. F. Hem
bree, of near Roswell, who brought
in 80 pound melon grown from the
seed. Geo. Brown, of near Mariet-
ia, was second with a 38k pound
melon.
No prize was offered for eating the
melons, but that did not dampen the
enthusiasm of the contest. Chief
Goodson probably won in the eating
affair only because his capacity en-
abled him to surround more than
Pierce Latimer.

Amorous Proposes
A Way To Destroy
The Boll-WeeviI

In letter to the Journal, Mr.. Mar
tin Amorous tells how to get rid of
the boll-weevil without much ex-
pense. He says that if the farmers
would pick the weevils off when they
first come and then pick up the she'd
ded or fallen squares daily it would
clear this section of the pest.
Mr.. Amorous' letter follows:
Editor:
Dear Sir: l have made many ex-
periments to beat the boll-weevil. /
have used calcium arsenate, which is
a sure cure if the weevil will take it
in, but he wont do it all the time.
Just after chopping out time pick up
by hand the weevils as fast as they
come, later on pick up the shielded
or fallen squares and burn them. If
you will pick up the fallen squares
today you will find the worm which
is the grand-child of the weevil that
cit" on your cotton when you chop
ped it out. Pick up squares daily if
possible and you will save your crop.

Herbert Clay Was
Guest of Honor
At Legion Dinner

President Herbert Clay, of the
State Senate, was guest of honor
at the luncheon of the Atlanta posts
OF the American Legion, last Friday
afternoon. The luncheon was in
charge of the Coleman Post. Mr..
Clay told the legion that he believed
in the purpose of the organization.
and that he would do everything he
could for its success. He told of his
own experiences as an enlisted man.
There is much the legion can do to
build up better sentiment for law
enforcement and substantial citizen
ship, Senator Clay said. He also
sounded a note af praise for the ex-
service man, as follows:
Il have a hard time keeping nv
temper when / see a service man
brought before the courts and see
the publicity given him because he
was in the service of his country.
when there are hundreds of men who
never saw camp, hauled before the
courts every day and no great stir
made over it. / also find It hard to
understand how a government can do
so much for the stenographers and
clerks, whose work was hard enough.
of course, when it can do SO little for
the man who faced DEATH"

Sl,0OO,0OODECREASE
IN TAXABLE PROPERTY
FOR COBB This YEAR
Tax Receivers Book Show Tax
for 1922 to be Million Less
Than Were 1922 Taxes

The books of the tax receiver have
just been completed, and the tax re-
turns for the present year show that
the tax of the county have fallen
over one million dollars.
The tax returns for 1921 were Sill
809,990, while the 1922 returns are
only $10,692,930. This shows the
tax for this year are $1,117,O60 less
than they were last year.
The following was taken from the
auditors report for Jan. 1922 Cur
rent Assets and Liabilities:
"You will notice that the Net In
debtedness has increased during the
year
On Jan. 1, 1921 it was $67, 936.19.
On Jan. l, 1922, it was $82, 1888.
In this connection, by reference to
the Schedule of Outstanding War
rants, you will see that the same have
risen from $1O8, 077.60, on January
l, 1921 to $229,604.76 on January
/, 1922.
This is a mater for grave consider
alton on your part.
The decrease in taxes only means
that the county is going to be deep
er in debt than ever before, for
the debts of the county are not de-
creasing, while the source of paying
them is.

Half Century of
Married Life Is
Passed by Couple
BY RAYMOND RISE

If you are a divorce lawyer we
advise you not to read this for it
may prove disasterous to your heart.
1t is certainly just the opposite to
the modern day story about married
life. 1t sounds more like a novel
than real story with real live
hero and heroine.
Last Monday Mr.. H. F. Bates
came all the way from Powder
Springs to renew his subscription to
the Journal and at the same time
give us a story that Knight help
somebody else, he said. Mr.. Bates
and his wife have been married ex-
actly one half century last Tues
day During this time they have not
had single quarrel-not even a low
ers quarrel.
Mr.. Bates is seventy-one years ola
and his wife is seventy. They have
six children, four boys and two girls
and twelve grandchildren. They have
been living at their present home in
Powder Springs about twenty years.
During this time the Journal has
been their constant companion and
member of the family.
Last Tuesday this happy couple
celebrated their golden anniversary
by reunion Of all their children and
grandchildren.
