He is sick of success to the point that when he establishes an en terprise that would content another man for a lifetime he immediately grows tired of it, and like Alexander the Great drops his conquest to move on for martier and newer fields to con quer. This philosophic gypsy-capitalist is L.ndsey Hopkins, who has just re tired as head of the Cadillac interests in Georgia for the sole reason that the business is running along so success i fully and profitably that it interests [ him no longer. He has sold it to Messrs. Holt and Rawlings, of San dersville, who have come to take charge of the Atlanta headquarters. ’ But in Lindsey Hopkins' case the | word "retire” doesn’t mean to go back I and sit down. It means simply that iie will get busier than ever before, but in a new direction. This time it is big motion picture producing interests, and incidentally, the extension of his enterprises as an investment banker. Although a young man, Mr. Hopkins ■ has already pil’d up enough completed achievements to fill the entire life o f half a dozen ordinarily successful business men.

AHE AMEKICUb DAIL) tiiv, > v oriutH TWO HUNDRED IN FIRST LIST FDR THAINING GAMPS NEW YORK, March 13. —The names of some two hundred men, many of them prominent in various walks of life who have enrolled for the first South ern military training camp, at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., next month, were given out today at Governor’s Island, the headquarters of the Department of the East. The encampment at Fort Oglethorpe will be along the lines of the one held at Plattsburg. N. Y„ last summer, which proved so successful as to have apparently become an annual fixture. The Southern camp will open on April 3, and from then on till the 30th of June there will be three camps, .each continuing a month. A junior division will also encamp at Fort Oglethorpe from July 5 to Aug ust Sth. Major-General Leonard Wood, com manding the Department of the East, will be present for a week or more at the opening of the camp, and will give it his personal attention throughout. .In command will be Lieut.-Col Hen ry T. Allen, of the 11th United States Cavalry, who was recently on duty with the general staff at Washington. The lieutenant colonel was formerly mili tary attache in Berlin and Petrograd; he was organizer of me Philippines constabulary, with the rank of briga di .• general, and he was one of the leaders of the first expedition to locate Mount McKinley, in Alaska. H'e is well known as a polo player, a race rider and hunter. Fort Oglethorpe is just across the bi.rder from Chattanooga, Tenn., and the site of the camp for the civilians iil be on the famous tattlefield of Chickamauga, not far from Lookiut mountain. Fort Oglethorpe is now garrisoned by the 11th United States cavalry, and since the terrain is peculiarly suited -er the purpose, special emphasis will be placed on work in field artillery and i a - airy. Men who are familiar with horses will be permitted to entei di et fly into a special course in cavalry training to continue throughout the pi riod ot the camp. This fact has ap- I caled strongly to Southerners. Henry Clay Evans, commissioner of i the Department of Education and ..ealth in Chattanooga, is chairman of the local committee that is assisting in the organization pf the camp and I WE INVITE YOU TO • I A DISPLAY I | .... of .... • i Spring Suits, Dresses, Coats and : i Skirts, Os Woolens and Taffetas : e =^—— —— - • • . r . .

The partial roster that was issued today at Governor’s Island, will be sup plemented laset, possibly, by other lists but no attempt will be made to publish the entire enrollment, as it is antici pated it will be nearly as large as the camp at Plattsburg last year.

I FEEBLE OLD PEOPLE ARE TOLD HOW TO REGAIN STRENGTH AND VIGOR. Mrs. James A. Smith, of Oakland, Cal., says:—“My husband, now eighty two years of age, is a retired Vet eran of the Navy, and he has been [•strengthened and benefited a great I deal by Vino], My long experience I with first class physicians and nurses enables me to discriminate in medi cines, and I must say Vinol has proved its wonderful qualities to relieve and strengthen the whole system under very trying circum stances. When the blood is thin and needs strengthening and to build up a depleted system, nothing equals Vinol.” Nothing equals Vinol to strengthen old people because the tonic iron, the medicinal properties of fresh cods’ livers, beef peptone and mild native wine which it contains are the very elements needed to rebuild wasting tissue and create strength. We ask every feeble, aged person in Americus Americus to try a bottle of Vinol, with the understanding that we will return their money if it fails.

Ready, Ky.—“ 1 was not able to do anything for nearly six months,” writes Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place, “and was down in bed for three months. 1 cannot tell you how I suffered with my nead, and with nervousness and womanly troubles. Our family doctor told my husband he could not do me any good, and he had to give it up. We tried another doctor, but he did nut help me. At last, my mother advised me to take Cardui, the woman’s tonic. I thought it was no use for 1 was nearly dead and nothing seemed to do me any good. But I took eleven bottles, and now I am able to do all of my work and my own washing. 1 think Cardui is the best medicine in the world. My weight has increased, and 1 look the picture of health. ” If you suffer from any of the ailments peculiar to women, get a bottle of Cardui today. Delay is dangerous.
