Atlanta Girl Makes
Success AS Author

Atlanta, Ca, April 8.-The Satur-
day Review of Literature, edited by
Henry Seidel Candy, in New York,
pays fine compliment to the latest
juvenile book by Miss Gladys Blake,
an Albanian. The book, "The Old
Kings Treasure is just off the press.
Miss Blake's first book, ''The Mys-
FERROUS Tutor has had splendid
sale all over the country.
The author is the daughter of Mrs.
George E. Blake, and the sister of
Morgan Blake, sports editor of the
Atlanta Journal. She formerly lived
in Nashville, Tenn, but at the death
of her father moved to Atlanta, to
live with her brother
The Saturday Review of Literature
referred to Miss Blake's book as "an
excellently told juvenile romance"
and "the action is kept huming at a
breathless pace throughout the
course of the tale"

Automobile Dealers
To Get Refund

Automobile dealers are entitled to-
a refund from the manufacturers on
all ne wears in stock and in transit
paid for or invoiced carrying the 5
per cent tax as of March goth, 1926.
They are entitled to refund of 2
per cent on such cars.
Dealers are required to prepare in
ventories of new cars on hand on one
sheet and cars in transit on another
sheet, and swear to the correctness
of the Inventories. Deputy Collect
ors of Internal Revenue will inspect
the records of dealers, but not until
the inventories have been prepared,
sworn to and notice sent to the Col
lector's office that such records are
ready for inspection. Dealers need
not hesitate about going ahead
with the sale of cars, so long as they
keep sales records which show the
cars that they sold on and after
March the goth, and before the
Deputy arrives to make the inspec-
ton. Full credit will be given on all
new cars thus sold. Deputy Collect
ors will not start to make this in
spection before Monday, April the
9th.
It is to the interest of all dealers
to see that they themselves and all
of the other dealers in that communl-
ty notify this office that records are
ready for inspection, as Deputy Col
lectors cannot make two or three trips
to the same community in order to
make inspections, and those commune
ties from which notices are first re-
ceiyed from all dealers are the ones
that are going to be inspected first.
Therefore, the failure on the part of
some dealers to send in notices will
affect all the dealers in that communi-
ty.
Regarding refunds on cigar stamps
which are allowed cigar manufacture
ers, jobbers and dealers, the refunds
amount to from $500 per one thou
sand on some classes of cigars down
to $3.50 per thousand on other
classes. Such cigar manufacturers,
iobbers and dealers must take theft
inventories of cigars on hand and IN
transit as of March 29th, and must
swear to the correctness of such inc
ventories, and in addition to this must
have two disinterested persons not en-
gagged in the cigar business to wit
ness such inventories, and these two
persons must swear that they inspect
ed the package mentioned in the in
ventories. and otherwise certify to the
correctness of the inventories, and
these two witnesses must certify to
this under oath. All of this must be
done in order for the cigar manufac-
turers, jobbers and dealers to get
their refunds.
No claims will be given consider
alton by the Commissioner for an
amount less than 500
Inspection of these cigar manufac-
turers, j~J,s and dealers by Depu-
ty Collectors of Internal Revenue will
start on Monday, Ajril 9Th, and all
such inventories must be prepared
and sworn to before that time, or the
Deputy Collector will not make the
inspection.

ACCOUNTING PAIN =.
QUICKLY BAN|SHEO
Two applications of home
remedy gave complete relief

Don't suffer-don't wait for pain to
just wear off. Give it relief at once
with very simple home treatment.
81 could not sleep or do my work."
writes Washington, D. c., woman,
"but now can walk and do my work
and sleep at night. l used Sloan's
Liniment only twice and it relieved
me of my pain. 1t is just wonderful.
! will never be without it.
This is only one letter but it is
typical of thousands that the makers
of Sloan's have received, testifying to
the amazing relief that Sloan's gives
to every kind of muscular pain.
No need to rub, it's the medicine it
self that does the work. Just pat it
on. Instantly it sends the fresh, healing
blood tingling through the sick tissues
and the pain simply has to go. So
clean and easy to use too. Get a bottle
today. All druggists-35 cents.
