'**J*1»,I*M IT* THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TUESDAY, MARCH 26. 1907. anxie ty of investors IS CAUSE OF FLURRY yew York, March 26.—Jacob H. Foilin', head of the banking house of Kuhn. Loch & Co., returned to Wall sirett yesterday after a short vacation spent In the South and gave the fol lowing expression of his opinion of the situation: ■ I ,lo not see how the present trou ble In the position of affairs In llnan- C lat markets can be completely ended until effective steps are taken to allay ilie anxiety which exists among all ,.lasses of Investors and business In terests over the agitation against the railroads. ■I believe this fear that something exceptionally distressing Is to happen In the way of legislation to railroads, curtailing their earnings and, therefore, their ability to make returns to stock holders Is more accountable for the present state of affairs than Is the money market. The money market, I believe, wll, right Itself In large meas ure after the middle of April, for the treasury authorities are displaying an Intelligent Interest In Its course, anil apparently stand ready to do all they can within proper limits. “From the middle of the month on funds should flow toward New York. I And no sign of great trouble among houses of standing, either here or In Europe, and It Is surprising how well margins are maintained In this city." PER SI STEM BRIDEGROOM Vi/ON HIS WIFE A7 LAS'I ••Faint heart ne’er won fair lady,” and If W. B. Oolsby, of Salisbury, N. C. t had been falnted-hearted he might now bo a lonesome widower and Mies joule Leamon, of Atlanta, would be nuking over her wedding dress into a ppring toilet. But the Tarheel bride groom was persistent and the wedding g ot for Sunday took place Monday aft- Sunday the bride had disappeared, and was not found until late that evening. The wedding was postponed, for the bride-elect was hysterical and would not be comforted, but the bridegroom was persistent. He waUed another day, renewed his suit, and late Mon day afternoon “love found the way.” Mr. and Mrs. Golsby t >ok the night train for Salisbury. The wedding cer emony was performed by Rev. H. C. Hurley at 145 Cherokee avenue, the home of the bride. m u * ul uv J« HGW SHIRT WAISTS SUFFER FROM CONDUCTORS' HANDS Shall women wear mackintoshes over white shirtwaists, or shall street car conductors -wash their hands? That is the question of the hour. From the Candler building clear down to Mitchell street, a buzz of feminine voices waa heard Monday dur ing the shopping hours. And If there v as one topic more discussed than new hats It was "how to keep a shirtwaist clean." • I wish you’d Just look at my sleeve, said one Peachtree matron to her friend. "See those finger marks? That's what the conductor did for me. And I'm not a cripple. I can get off a car without any help, thank yqo." That's the trouble. The women com plain that the conductors Insist on as sisting them off and on the cars by means of a Arm grasp of the elbow and a "h’lst" which may expedite traffic, but which Is ruinous to white linen and temper. Now, Atlanta is dusty, and there are no lavatories on street cars, and naturally the conductors' hands become more or less grimy. You can guess the result. "If they would Just keep their hands off,” was the voice of feminine Atlantu, "that's all we ask. For laundry bills are growing higher every day.' COMPANY IS ORGANIZED TO MARKET LONG STAPLE.

Savannah, Ga., March 26.—That the new administration is In earnest abo it keeping the “lid on” tight on Sunday was evidenced by the vigilance of the police when on yesterday six persons of different firms faced the recorder the result of charges of running on Sunday’. Among the number was the DeSoto Hotel. It Is understood, however, that this was a mere technical violation of the law, the cashier having remained a short while after tho closing hour to count the receipts of tho day and bal ance his cash. Some of the evidence at the hearing was amusing. One policeman testified that he had lain on the ground and from a point of hiding watched the violators of the law ply their illicit trade. This was done from u second- stoiy window, where there was a bar rel of whisky. A bucket attached to a rope was suspended by a pulley. The purchaser put his money In the bucket nnd pulled the rope. Then the bucket descended with the order therein. One dealer pleaded guilty and was fined $200. Mayor Tledeman revoked his license. GOOD NATURED AGAIN Good Humor Returns With Change to Proper Food. "For many years f was a constant sufferer from Indigestion, and nervous ness amounting almost to prostration,” writes a Montana man. “My blood was Impoverished, the vision wn blurred and weak, with moving spots before my eyes. This was a steady dally Condition. I grew Ill-tempered and eventually got so nervous I could not keep my books posted, nor handle accounts satisfac torily’. I can’t describe my sufferings. "Nothing I ate agreed with me till one day I happened to notice Grape- Nuts In a grocery store, and bought a package, out of curiosity’, to know what it was. 4 “I liked the food, from tho very first, eating It with cream, and now I buy It by the case and use It dally. I soon found that Grape-Nuts food was sup plying brain and nerve force as noth ing in the drug line ever had done or could do. It wasn't long before I was restored to health, comfort ami happiness. Through the use of Grape-Nuts food iny digestion has been restored, my nerves are steady once more, my eye sight Is good ugaln. my mental facul ties are clear and acute, and I have be come so good-natured that my friends are truly astonished at the change. I feel younger and better than I have for twenty years. No amount of money would Induce me to surrender what 1 have gained through the use of Grape-Nuts food.” Name given by Postum Company, Hattie Creek, Mich. “There's a reason.” Read the little book.

Macon, Ga., March 26.—Jn the Fed eral court yesterday Judge EJmory Speer handed down an opinion In the case Of Lucy Snead, administratrix, against the Georgia Railway Company’, in which he upheld the employer's lia bility act, passed by the last session of congress. The constitutionality of this act was involved In the case. Tho act provides that every common carrier engaged in Interstate and for eign commerce shall he liable to any of Its employees, or In case of death to the next of kin, for damages which may result from the negligence of an employee, and also provides that con tributory negligence shall not bar a re covery, and that employment contracts of insurance, relief benefit or Indemni ty, which tho employee is obliged to sign, shall not be any bar or defense. The act was assailed by the defend ant on the ground that it was repug nant to the constitution of the United States. United States Judges Evans, at Louisville, and McCall, at Memphis, have upheld this contention. Judge Speer maintains the opposite view. In tho opinion he states that “it is difficult to magnify the significant and consequential Import of the ques tion thus presented. Every’ corporation and person In the states and territo ries engaged In commerce between the states and foreign nations may be pro foundly concerned. The validity of a deliberate act of the national legisla ture is drawn in question for deter mination by the arbiter of the Ameri can system of government.” He declares that "the occasions when the action of congress or of the execu tive have been dfdared unconstitution al are singularly and happily infre quent," nnd that "the rule Is th&t courts will not adjudge an act of con gress invalid unless, In their judgment. Its violation of the constitution is clear, complete and unmistakable." Poster to Regulate Commerce. In arguing the question of the power to regulate commerce. Judge Speer said: ” ‘Unquestionably the power to reg ulate commerce includes navigation as well as traffic In Its ordinary signifi cation, nnd embraces ships and vessels as the Instruments of Intercourse and tra.de, # as well as the officers and sea men employed In their navigation.’ “If, then, congress has the estab lished right to control the relative du ties of the ship owners and seamen, upon what sound reasoning can Its con trol of the rights and liabilities of other men engaged In transportation by land be denied? The power to regulate is unlimited In Its application to such traffic. How fntile, then, is the con tention that this regulation may be ex tended to tho inanimate machinery nnd commodities engaged, and not to the men without whose services not a wheel ould revolve." To tho argument that the employees who engage In Interstate commerce also handle that which Is Intrastate, nnd that the legislation of congress affects them also, he replies that: "It will not do to say that the exer cise of an admitted power of congress Is to be withheld, if it appears, or can be shown, that the effect of tho law may incidentally extend beyond the limitation of the power. Upon any such Interpretation, the principal object of the framers of thef Instrument In con ferring the power would bo sacrificed to the subordinate consequences result ing from Its exercise." Dentists Bankrupt Growing Use of Nature Foods Killing the Dentists’ Practice. When you sit In the dentist's chair and feel the drill gnaw right down to the nerve, do you ever stop to wonder how your poor ancestors bore that pain 200 years ago, when the only instru ment was the forceps and they didn’t take gas? Don’t waste your time wondering. Our forefathers lived 'close to Nature. They didn't have their meals called off In French, sandwiched between times with munchings of bitter sweets and thousand other dainties. If we but knew the secret of a bank rupt dentistry and a depleted medical practice In general, we would take time to consider the cause. If the forces at work upon those teeth of yours, tho hurdest structure In your body, can get the results they do In dentist’s bills, what must they accomplish flown In the Inner and more delicate organisms? What of the stomach, the bowels, the brain and the nerves, subjected day und night to tho most frightful tasks of digestion and assimllatloo of so-called “food," the carrying off of waste tissue and the supplying of vigor and action to the body? Are you doing anything to pro tect yourself? Take away the cause! Use modera tion and Judgment in your demands upon your stomach, for therb is the center from which all pain or sound ness springs. It’s the stomach that feeds the bones, the muscles, the nerves and the brain. If you feel your strength giving out nnd don't know,the cause, your stomach will point It out. Undoubtedly you r.re giving It un ill proportioned or crammed diet. Wheat and barley ulone contain all the elements necessary to the normal constitution; muscle, heat, brain and nerve producers are found In the grain of wheat and barley In the exact pro portion required for a robust body. Any variance from this diet means not only wasted energy but sure Injury to some vital organ. Hardyfood builds bone and muscle, tempers the body, feeds the brain and settles and strengthens the nerves. It Is good for the laborer and the office man. It builds up the tissues of the young and restores strength to the obi. Hardyfood is a delightfully pure and satisfying dish that the stomach looks forward to. You can’t tire of Hardy food because It can be serve*! in so many ways. Eaten dry. or with cream and fruit juices It Is delicious. Served hot from the oven or cooked as por ridge, If desired, It is equally appetiz ing. Out down your doctor’s bills and live normally. Try Hardyfood at your grocer's. It coats only a dime. Isn’t it worth the price to get started right? Hardyfood at your grocers. 10 cents.

HOME PRESCRIPTION Speediest Belief Known to Science for Coughs, Colds and Consumption. Thin home prescription ha* been fa- miliar to druggists for yenrs. Its won derful effectiveness on coughs, colds nnd all affecUons of tho branchial tubes nnd pulmonary organs spread Its fame from city to city with rapidly Increas ing popularity. Inquiry Intd the origin of this pre scription developed tho fact that It emanated from a prominent Philadel phia physician .who gained fame amongst his profession for the devel opment of a truly soluble preparation from the active principle of the pine tree, which, although known to con tain wonderful curative powers on tho mucous membrane, yet was not gener ally used by doctors on account .of Its Insolubility. This new form of plno is known to doctors and druggists :ls the Concentrated oil of pine and It forms the chief Ingredient In the fa mous "Home Prescription," which ■ a here given to the public and Is u* follows; Concentrated oil of pine, half ounce; pure whisky (spirits frumentl) eight ounces, glycerine 2 ounces. Mix and shake thoroughly and take a table- spoonful every four hours. Thl* will frequently cure a cold inside of twenty- four hours. These Ingredients can be secured at any good drug store, and can be easily mixed at home In a ten-ounce bottle. The concentrated oil of pine comes put up for dispensing In half-ounce vials securely sealed In a screw-top package which retains all the original oxoue. It should be home In mind, however, that there mo patent medicines put up by so-called chemical companies to imitate tho wonderful pine oil. These can lie avoided by making sure to get the "Concentrated” oil of pine. It Is also said to be very effective In curing lumbago nnd uric add rheumatism. For this purpose K Is taken raw, a few drops on sugar, night and morning.
