THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN, MONDAY, NOVrMnF.lt 19. l^fi. Confidence In Your Business. The most valuable asset any business house has is public confidence. Without that, all success, or apparent success, is builded on the shifting sands. An essential to the winning of public confidence is systematic, scientific, truth-telling advertising, placed in high-(jlass publications. The Massengale Ad vertising Agency can prepare just.tlie right advertising, and this paper is a medium of the highest class. This is a valuable hint. Act l on it.

NOTED GEORGIA LADY DIES AT GAINESVILLE Bpoclsl to The Georgian. Gainesville, Os., Nov. 18.—Miss Msry Charles Garrison, of this place, died yesterday morning at the home of her nephew. J. M. Garrison. Miss Oarrl- son was born in 1810 and in spite of her advanced years had been mentally and physically active until very recently. Although deaf since childhood as the result of an attack of scarlet fever, she has been known throughout a wide territory for more than half a century for her cheerfulneso, her readiness to help all those In trouble or distress. A member of one of the most dis tinguished families In Georgia, she waa the sister of the late Judge J. N. Gar rison. and the beautiful example of her Christian character will be greatly missed by her wide circle of friends and relatives. She leaves In Atlanta a niece, Mrs. W. W. Foreacre, and a ne phew, 11. C. Garrison, superintendent of telegraph of the union depot. NEGRO MINISTERS DECLARE EDUCATION HOPE OF THEIR RACE The Colored International Ministerial Union of Atlanta has Issued an open appeal to the i>eople of Georgia to lend their best assistance in an effort to train the colored labor of the state Into useful and competent laborers. The union appeals for practical Insti tutions In the state to train the negro hoys and girls in the domestic arts and trades, and points out the great good that will arise from the agricultural schools for the white. It is pointed out that from the mil lion negroes In Georgia should come the skilled workers along agricultural and certain domestic avocations. A great central Industrial school for the state and schools of domestic science In the cities would tend to brldg about the desired result. D, A, R, TO MEET WEDNESDAY BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION Lady of Fifty Leeks Liks Sixteen, A Nashville lady found a way to beautify her complexion without the use of drugs or face creams. •'Before I began the use of Grape- Nuts,- she writes, “1 was convinced I conld not live long. I was sick all the time; heart trouble^ kidneys seriously affected, eyesight had, sense of smell was gone and hearing very poor. ■■ "My family thought I had dropsy and could not get well, and I only ate Grape-Nuts because I slept better aft erwards—did not dream I could be en tirely cured, had quit all treatment and Rven up hope. “After spending a large sum of money and being under the best physi cians for three years without relief, I commenced eating Grape-Nuts food three times a day and now I am sound as a dollar, am In perfect health, flfty years old and my complexion Is better thsn some girts at If. •T never iiave headache, nerves are strong, sight so much improved I need no classes, heart and kidneys In per fect condition. “Tour Grape-Nuts alone cured me and I cannot find words to express my thanks to the Posltlm Company. I have told hundreds of people what cured me. It was simple food that I could digest." -v "There's a reason." Name given by Poatum Company, Battle Cr-ok, Mich. It sometimes amazes per. ns'what damage has been done by Improper eating, not knowing any better way. A change to Grape-Nuts soon tells the _story.

EVEN MONEY BET DN CITYJLECTION Brunswick in the Throes of Local Election of Mayor and Board. Special to Tho Georgian. Brunswick, Ga., Nov. 18.—Today’s primary election will decide who are to be Brunswick's mayor and aldermen for the term commencing January 1. This fight for the control of the city government Is exciting far greater In terest than the recent primary for se lecting a member of the legislature of the state primary, which named Hoke Smith as Democratic candidate for the governorship. The chief Interest centers In the race for mayor. There are two candidates for the office, namely, Colonel C. P. Goodyear, who some ten years ago made a national reputation through his scheme to deepen the channel across Brunswick bar by using dynamite to blow out obstructions to navigation, and Captain W. F. Symons, who Is a promlnsnt cltbsn and has held various county and city offices. Both, candi dates declare In favor of municipal ownership of water, gas and electric plants. However, Colonel Goodyear Is balng supported pretty solidly by the present owners of the water, gas and electric light plants, and Captain Sy mons Is backed by almost all of the men who favored the granting of the trancljlse for an alectrlc street railway and light plant, which was given J. H. Neff and associates some 16 months ago. The race promises to be a very close one, and It Is a "toss-up” which of the candidates will be chosen as the next mayor of Brunswick. Beta are being placed at even money. Visits Nsw Orleans. Colonel A. Park Woodward, general manager of the Atlanta waterworks. Is spending several days In New Or leans, having been Invited there by the management of the waterworks of the Louisiana metropolis. The city of New Orleans Is now con structing an entirely new system of waterworks, at an approximate cost of 18,000.000. It was thought that a visit by Colonel Woodward would be bene ficial to the waterworks departments of both cities; he could give sugges- tlnmuto the New Orleans management und“ould gain knowledge by a thor ough Inspection of the new system there. Mayor May Veto the Meas ure Passed by the. Council. The prlncfpnl matter to be transact ed at the meeting of council Monday Bfternoon will bo the sustaining or the overriding sf the mayor's veto of the franchise granted the Atlanta and Car olina Construction Company. This will be the third time the fran chise has been before council. It was once passed by coupcll and recommit ted to the ordinance committee by the oldermanlc board, a number of resi dents on the right of way Asked, hav ing objected. The committee on electric and other railways made a personal Inspection of the proposed right of way. paying espe cial attention to the streets said to be too narrow for tracks. The committee again reported favorably, with the pro vision that these narrow streets be widened by tlje company to twenty- four fe«t. Over the protest of a num ber of cltlxens, council again passed on and granted the franchise. The aldermanlc board concurred, a last resort, the residents, wito claim that the building of the railway will decrease the value of their property, and who say the line will be dangerous, pleaded with the mayor to veto It. Tho mayor did so. This, therefore, will be the third time before council. It la probable that the mayor's veto will be‘over ridden roughshod, although not certain. Tho mayor only objects to the pro- '•osed route, and council may mako tho nterurban select another one. A live ly debate Is expected. Terminal Question. Next In Importance to the Inter- urban railway question will be the pe tition of the Gate City Terminal Com pany for rights to cross’certain streets In the construction of a road-bed and tracks for the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic railway. There. Is sure tq be lively protesting here. At least twenty-five property owner* on streets which will be affected have already voiced their strenuous protests. It Is possible that the streets committee will not be ready to report on the petition In time for the meeting Monday afternoon. If the committee does report It will very probably be favorable to tho peti tion. with many and wide changes and restrictions. Council will uphold the action of the committee. Another quest Ion, which will ot slon much debate and occupy much time of council, will be the report of the salary committee, recommending raises In salary for about twenty city hall officials, and a decrease of 81,000 for the chief of tho fire department. There will be an application of J. Hlrsowlts, whose saloon license was revoked, to allow him to run his estab lishment thirty days longer in order to dispose of his stock of goods. It will probably bo turned down. There will also he an application from one whisky dealer to be allowed to change his place to a negro saloon, Instead of a white saloon. Unfavorable action Is probable.) Nerve Sick If weak, worn-out, nervous, cannot sleep; have indigestion, head ache, neuralgia or peri odic paius, it is because your nerves are weak. It is the lack of nerve force that makes the stomach, heart,- luugs, etc., work imperfectly—become sick. Dr. Miles’ Nervine cures the sick when it restores nerve strength, and puts tho power behind the or gans to do their work. ”Almo«t thw* yen™ I suffered from nervousness, indigestion, and palpita tion of tho heart. 1 could not eat or •le STATUE TO HAMPTON UNVEILED TUESDAY Special to Ths/leorglan.

Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind Special to The Georgian. Washington, Ga., Nov. 19.—The citl xens of Wilkes county have at last been aroused to the reullxatlon that the securing of the Eighth district agricultural and mechanical college will mean a tremendous advantage to the county and have net to work In an enthusiastic manner with a determina tion of landing the college. The twelve trustees from this district will meet with Governor Terrell In Athene December 5 to consider bids from the several counties. Several countte* of this district, It Is stated, will petition the trustees for an extension of time, but this Is unlikely In view of the fact that one extension of time has al ready been made by the trustees of this district. A mass meeting of cltlsens was held In the court house here Saturday af ternoon and the proposition was dis cussed freely and fully. Colonel Richard D. Callaway com menced the subscription with a liberal donation of loo acres of, perhaps, the best farming land In the county. Oth er subscriptions followed In rapid order.

Caturrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to Incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloating sensation after eating, accom panied sometimes with sour or watery risings, n formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breathing, headaches, fickle ap petite, nervousness and a general played-out, languid feeling. There Is often a foul taste In the mouth, coated tongue and.If the Inte rior of the stomach could be seen It would show a slimy, Inflamed condition. Tho cure for this common and obsti nate trouble Is found In a treatment which cuuses the food to be readily, thoroughly digested before It ha* time to ferment and Irritate the delicate mu cous surfaces of the stomach. To se cure a prompt and healthy digestion Is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disap peared.
