Message of Easter.
Easter again proclaims its message
to the world. Nature lends
her enchantment to the day, and
makes all things bright with her
unfolding promise of the resurrection.
The wooded hills, the mystic
canyons, the flowered meadows, the
home-building birds, the sparkling
dewdrops on grass and flowers awaki
xi :? ?
en, unuer me warming raj? ?.?i wic
rising sun, intu a world beautiful,
made sweeter by the presence of
Him who is risen from the dead.
And man, looking up from his
work, rejoices.
In city and country; in art-domed
cathedral and isolated church; in
mansion and cabin is sung in harmonious
cadence, sometimes soft
and low, and, then again, in accelerated
movement, the glad tidings
of Eastertide, with its message of
the day and to.the day's toilers,
"Christ is risen!"
So man must ever seek to rise
superior to the destructive forces
around him. He must measure up
to his ideal if he would escape the
mrnnrpKf Kv flip flniYII
ucufttciucui niuu^uv wj ??v ?
nance of his lower self. In no other
way can he expect to live the ideal
life. Hiq inspiration and ideal are
found in Christ. His entrance as
an amateur into the Christian life is
\ but indicative of his growth into
that of an'artist. And in this progressive
cumulative ascendancy he
is conscious of the leadership of
One, who, by one decisive stroke of
matchless power, in the resurrection
from the death, proved his
Sonship, authority, superiority and
divinity.
U, Therefor^, liowever wild and steep
your path may be; however mighty
the sweep of sinful propensities and
habits; however dart and threaten? >?

take heart and press on! Easter's
message is for the world. It puts a
song in the individual heart. So as
nature responds to the touch of
spring, may mankind everywhere
enter into the spirit af Easter.?

f RECORDS KEPT SHOW DODGE BROTHid
ERS MACHINES DO MILES AT
>p TWO CENTS FLAT.
The report of the department of
ts public works on the individual mainle
tenance cost of 37 automobiles operle
ated by the department shows the
id Dodge Brothers motor car operated
le by Mr John Dunn was the most
economically driven car in the department.
The statistics include
)V every expense incurred by the cars
>n from July 1, 1915, to December 1,
id 1915, gasoline, oil, repair cost, tire
a- expense, etc, and show that Mr
i, Dunn's car was operated at the low
cost of exactly two cents per mile.
The five Dodge Brothers cars
:h used in the department also are
n- given several records wnicn place
?r them at the top of the low mainteth
nance records. Not one of the 37
le used in the department was run for
le the six months at a lower cost per
mile than any one of the five Dodge
Brothers cars. They also showed
il- the highest mileage, the lowest exst
pense on tires and the greatest milest
age per gallon of gasoline of any
r. touring car in the departmept.
e- Three of the Dodge cars were
t- operated for the six months without
any expense on tires. On the other
two cars of this make the only tire
a expense was for the replacement of
w spare tires which were stolen from
iV the machine.
r, The report shows many interestN
ing comparisons of the maintenance
i- cost of automobiles which range in
cost from two cents a mile for the
Dodge Brothers car to 27 cents a
a- mile for one of the heavy duty
9, trucks.
;s "Such figures are interesting to

0, Thomas J Doyle, local distributor
ie for Dodge Brothers cars.
"In these days of the high cost of
gasoline every one is looking for a
car that can be operated economically,
but it is seldom you can find
re any owner who can tell you the
j_ exact cost per mile for the opera)r
tion of his car. Such Dodge Brothx.
ers owners who have recorded the
expense for their cars have found
j. them exceedingly low and that they
t were getting unusually high milert

ATLANTA SHERIFF GOMES

Seventy-Year-Old Official is rilled Witl
Gratitude.
RECOMMENDS TANLAC
Declares He Feels 11 His Duty ti
Praise Medicine Which Helped
Him So Much.
"Tanlac has certainly helped 1111
and I recommend it to others foi
what it has done in my case," saic
Hon C W Mangum, Sheriff of Fulton
county, of Atlanta, Ga.
Sheriff Mangum needs no introduction
to the people of this section,
as he is unquestionably not onlj
one of the best known but one ol
the most popular officials in the
State of Georgia. He is also knowc
to be, by everyone, a kind, genial
gentleman of the old school and has
the reputation of l>eing the biggesl
hearted man in public life today,
His friends are legion?and his extreme
popularity as a man and as a
I -u! ... u.
puunc oinciui is miuiui aticsicu uj
the fact that he is now serving his
third term as Sheriff of Fultor
county.
For some years he was a railroad
official, but has been in public life
since 11)07. He served in the Confederate
army from 1862 to I860 in
the first Georgia regiment, and latei
in the fifth Georgia.
' "Yes," continued the Sheriff
' 'your medicine has done me lots o:
good and I have personally recom
mended it to a great many people
I know of at least 15 or 20 families
who have bought it on my say so.
"I am seventy years okl and hav<
most always been pretty strong anc
healthy until here lately. I hav<
been in a nervous, worn out, rur
down condition. My stomach was
upset most of the time and I digest
ed my food poorly. Most always
after eating I would have a full, uncomfortable
feeling that would last
for several hours.
. "After taking the second bottle
of Tanlac the fullness and all the
disagreeable symptoms disappeared
and my condition is now that of ?
well man. I now eat heartily without
any bad after effects and I sleej
well at night.
"Tanlac seemed to l>e just what J
needed to put my system in shape
and it has toned me right up. Under
the circumstances I think it per
fectly naturaly for me to say a goot
word for it and recommend it U
my friends."
Commenting 011 the above state
ment, T W Galyon, State agent foi
South Carolina, said: "It is rarely
indeed, that men of prominence
especially men holding high public
office such ?es that lielu by Sherif
Mangum, voluntarily express theii
appreciation of the lienefits receivec
from a medicine. Thousands o
such convincing endersements, how
ever, have come to Tanlac.
"Among the large number o
men in public life in the soutn wnc
have recently given Tanlac their unqualified
endorsement for specific aic
to them are Hon McKenzie Moss,
judge of the eighth Kentucky judicial
district; Hon Moses R Glenn
Kentucky State superintendent oi
printing; John B Gaines, editor anc
publisher of the Bow ling Green Dailj
News; George W Hinton,former sec
retary of the Warren county equitj
league; Pres Pegg, of Newport business
college, and others."
