Th« roiddM a deflector to HOW A FORMER ATLANTAN AIDED SIRICKEN 'FRISCO; CITY IS BEING REBUILT Macon, Oa, Oct 19.—“The high price of labor and building material.,' together with the uncertain value of land alnce the earthquake and Are, la now keeping 1900,000,000 from being In vested In San Francisco." This Is tip statement made by Dr. Jacob Voorsanger, one of the most prominent rabbis In the United States, who Is In Macon from San Francisco, on a visit to hla daughter, Mrs. E. A. Wnxelbsum. . It was Dr. Voorsanger, within three hours after the earthquake was actively Identlfled with the work of re lief to the Injured and dying and It was he who was made chairman of the relief committee when that or ganization had the problem of feeding JOO.OOO homeless and destitute people dally. No man who lived through the awful days of the ’Frisco catastrophe Is better qualified to talk of the con ditions existing In the Golden Gate City today than Dr. Voorsanger. $500,000,000 to Invest. “While the city.” says Dr. Voorsan ger, 'is now doing more business than ever before In Its history and while there Is a large amount of building being done, the majority of the busi ness of the great city of the Pacinc slope la being transacted In temporary wooden shacks and Just when the *500,000,000 which the people of the c|ty have to Invest In building will be turned loose, cannot be determined un til the three causes for the. holding of this money have been removed. "At present the business center of the city Is removed to nnother section and as a result land values along Van Xess avenue, which was 1 a residence thoroughfare before' the lire, have Jumped from 1500 a front foot *1,000 and even *2,000. Because of this and nlso because of the high wages prevailing and the high price of building materials, persons owning land In the former business center of the city hesitate about rebuilding per manent structures. Of course some have been rebuilt and others which were only partially destroyed are be ing repaired. "Whether or not the section of the city where high land values formerly prevailed will again become the valu- est prices,, too. He says that as soon as'rebuilding Is decided upon generally, (here will'.be work for 50,000 more men. Hr, Voorsanger told of’the scenes Just after: the earthquake while the city, was being .swept -block by block by the flames. Within three hours af ter the earthquake had wrought Its havoc, a relief force had been thor oughly organised with 1,000 trained nurses and 500 doctors, assisted by an automobile brigade. When this work of rescuingr-the • imperilled .and taking rare of the Injured and dead Was finished, the committee of which Voofbanger was chairman, was confronted with the problem of feed ing the 300,000 of homeless and how well this was accomplished Is now known over the world. It will come as pleasant news to Georgia people to know that the street railway company In San Franrisco, o' which Hon. Pat Calhoun, a former At fir “Princess Anne** Out able business center of the city question. But the fact that the ho tels. banks and newspapers are re building on the old sites Is taken as an Indication that these values will again he high." Work For 50,000 Laborers. Continuing, Dr. Voorsanger says that even with these conditions exist ing there Is plenty of work to be had by mechanics and work at the hlgh- tle In getting t tlon. Hauled Passengers Free. "This company,” said Dr. Voorsan ger, "Is deserving of the highest praise and It was one of the factors that helped no little In bringing the city out of chaos. Within forty-eight hours after the fire was controlled, workmen of the company dug through debris piled In the streets and the general manager himself took out tbs first car over the streets of our stricken city. And rapidly large gangs of workmen repaired the broken wires and twisted rails until within markably short time the entire system was In full operation. "Then It was that the company showed a patriotic and charitable spirit. While thousands of sympathiz ing Americans all over the United States were contributing their share to help the stricken people, the street railway company did Its share. It did this by cnrrylng passengers free for a week until people began to caro for themselves. It can be truthfully said that this company helped wonderfully In assisting the people.” The beautiful synagogue over which Dr. Voorsanger presided was ruined by tho Are and now plans have been com pleted by the congregation for the erection of a magnificent *500,000 syn agogue. Dr. Voorsanger will go to New York from Macon, and after remaining there a few days he will go abroad and will be gone for severnl months. In recog nition of his services to San Francisco in the dark days, he was made, to gether with General Fred Funston and ex-Mayor James D. Phelan, an honor ary member of the National Red Cross Society. 11,000,000 FIRE AT ALTOONA, PA„ EARLY ON FRIDAY $€.£? i Altoona, Pa., Oct. 19.—Fire here thla morning did damage estimated at $1,- 54,600 Meals Did Him No Good How One Man Wasted 50 Years of His Life. Thousands Like Him. "What’s the ase of satin’, nnyhow?” said the scrawny dyspeptic to his ro tund. prosperous-looking friend. "Here I’ve been eatln’ three times a day, and sometimes twice a day, far 50 years, and look nt me. I’m rawboned and skinny, still at the bottom of the ladder, sour on the world, and a pes simist. I know It, and I can’t help It. If I had It to do over again, though, I would take care of my, stomach, for I don’t believe I ever really relished a meal In. my life, not even mother's Christmas dinners, and I firmly believe that my way of eating, or whatever It was, brought along with It darkness and Impossibility of success.” "You're right." nodded his compan ion. "Of course, that Isn't always the esse, llut In this age we must not only Trust In the Lord and keep our pow der dry.’ but we must swallow, sunshine with our food. Cheerfulness, especial ly while eating, which Is the most es sential act of man. Is as necessary to hhn as sunshine is to the tlowers. Nothing normal can be produced in darkness. "But this Is what you haven't been doing, Mr. Dyspeptic. Your brain and your stomach, remember, are twins, and vou have to treat them according ly. Why not start now and repair, ths damage you’ve done? It Is never too late, you know." "You mean nt my age? And sup pose you can’t always get the sun shine?" "Absolutely, yea. Science has made It possible to get the sunshine, the health and the strength that your stomach needs, all put up together In little tablets. They call them Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, the most effective tablets In the world for this very thing. One Ingredient In these tablets digests 3,000 grains of food without the hel of the stomach. Two tablets after esc meal ran do more work, quicker work and better work. In digesting a heavy meal, than the stomach can Itself. The stomach need not work at all. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets does all the work, and gives your Jaded stomach a rest, the rest It needs. Meanwhile you cure yourself of brash. Irritation, burning sensation, heartburn, sour stomach, acidity, fermentation, bloat, and the worst cases of dyspepsia and Indiges tion. You get rid of these for all time. And then, besides, you can eat all you want and whenever you want, and you will also relish mother’s Christmas din ners If you will take Stuart’s Dyspep sia Tablets after eating. That’s the sunshine I was talking about. Then your face will reflect the Internal change going on, you'll be clearer, you will have more confidence >ln yourself, you'll be happier, and you’ll be yourself again. "Your heart will change and you’ll feel rosy. You'll enjoy your meals— and live. Let's walk down to the drug store and let me Introduce you to one little package of these Stuart’s Dys pepsia Tablets.
