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 safids. An essential to the
winning of public confidence is systematic,
scientific, truth-telling advertising, placed in
high-class publications. The Massengale Ad-
. vcrtising Agency can prepare just the right
advertising, and this paper is a medium of |
the highest class'. This is a valuable hint. Act
on it.

TD MEET WEDNESDAY
The Colored International Ministerial
Union ot Atlanta has Issued an open
appeal to the people of Georgia to land
their beet aulstance In an effort to
train the colored labor of the atate Into
uaeful and competent laborers.
The union appeals for practical Inatl
tutlons In the state to train the negro
boys and girl* In the domestic arts and
trades, and points nut the great good
that will arise from the agricultural
schools for the whites.
It Is pointed out that from the mil

state and schools of domestic science
In the cities would tend to bring about
the desired result.
BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION
Lady of Fifty Looks Like Sixteen.
A Nashville lady found a way to
baautlfy her complexion without the
use ot drugs or faca creams.
••Before I began the use of qrape-
Nuts,” she writes, “I waa convinced I
could not live long. I waa sick all tho
time; heart'trouble, kidneys seriously
affected, eyesight bad, 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
liven up hope.
“After spending a large sum of
money and being under the best physt-
rlans 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, fifty
years old and my complexion Is better
than some girls at 16.

EVEN MONET BET
ON CITYJLECTION
Brunswick in the Throes of
Local Election of Mayor
and Board.
Special to Tbo Georgian.
Brunswick, Go., Nov. 19,—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 tor 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
prominent citizen and has held various
county and city offices. Both candi
dates declare In favor ot municipal
ownership of water, gas and electric
plants. However, Colonel Goodyear Is
being supported pretty solidly by the
present owners of tho water, gas and
electric light plants, and Captain Sy
mons Is backed by almost all of the
men who favored the granting ot the
franchise for an electric street railway
and light plant, which was given J. H.
Neff and associates some IS months
ago.
The race promise* 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. Bets are being
placed at even money,
Visits New 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 syatem of
waterworks, at an approximate cost of
69,000,000. It was thought that a visit
by Colonel Woodward would be bene
ficial to the waterworks departments
of both cities: he could give sugges-
tlnniuto the New Orleans management
anil “ould gnln knowledge by a thor
ough Inspection of the new system
there.
The principal matter to be transact
ed at the meeting of council Monday
afternoon will be the sustaining or the
overriding of the mayor'* 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 council and recommit
ted to the ordinance committee by the
aldermanlc 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 streeta said to be
too narrow for tracks. The committee
again reported faverably, with the pro
vision that these narrow streets be
widened by the company to twenty
four feeL Over the protest of a num
her of clt^iens, council again passed
on and granted the franchise.
The aldermanlc board concurred. As
a last resort, the residents, who 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. Tbe
mayor did so.
This, therefore, will be the third
time before councIL It Is probable
that the mayor's veto will be over
ridden roughshod, although not certain.
The mayor only objecta to the pro
posed route, and council may make tho
Interurban 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 streeta

track! for the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic railway.
■ There Is sure to be lively protesting
here. At least twenty-five property
owners on streets which will be affected
have already voiced their strenuous
protests. It Is possible that the street!
committee will (lot be ready to report
on the petition In time for the meeting
Monday afternoon.
If the committee does report It will
very probably bo favorable to the peti
tion, with many and wide changes and
restrictions. Council will ^uphold the
action of the committee.
Another question, which will occa
slon much debate and occupy much
time of council, Will be the report of
the salary committee, recommending
ralsee in salary for about twenty city
hall officials, and a decrease of 61,000
for the chief of the Are department.
There will be an application of J.
Hlrsowlts, whose saloon license was
revoked, to allow him to run hls< estab
lishment thirty days longer In order to
dispose of his stock of goods. It will
probably be turned down. There will
also be on 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.

Washington, Ga., Nov. 19.—The citi
zens of Wilkes county have at last
been aroused to the' realisation that
the securing of the Eighth district
agricultural and mechanical college
will mean a tremendous advantage to
the county and have set to wosk In an
enthusiastic manner with a determina
tion of landing the college. The twelve
trustees from this district will meet
with Governor Terrell In Athens on
December B to consider bids from the
several counties. Several counties 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.

cussed freely and fully.

Catarrh of the Stomach
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and
Effectual Cure for It.
Mrs. C. C. Vittur.
The funeral services nf Mrs. C. C.
Vittur were conducted Monday morn
ing at the Church of the Immaculate
Conception. The Interment was ip
Weetvlew cemetery.
COSTS NOTHING TO TRY.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to Incurable.
The usual symptoms ore a full or
bloating sensation after eating, accom
panied, sometimes with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lunge and
difficult breathing, headaches, fickle ap
petite, nervousness end a general
plaved-out, languid feeling.
There Is often a foul taste In the
mouth, coated *ongue and If the Inte
rior of the stomach could be seen it
would show a slimy, Inflamed condition.
Tha cure for this common and obstl-
nato trouble Is found In a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before It hoe time
to ferment and irritate the delicate mu
cous surfaces of the stomach. To s!'
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.
According to Dr. Harlanson, the saf
est and best treatment Is to use after
each meal a tablet, composed of Dias
tase. Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux.
Golden Seal and fruit acids. These
tablets can’ now be found at all drug
stores under the name of Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets and not being a patent
medicine can be used with perfect
safety and assurance that healthy ap
petite and thoreugh digestion will fot-
ow their regular use after meals.
Air. IL 8. Workman. Chfcago, lit.
writes: “Catarrh Is a local condition
resulting from a neglected cold In the
head, whereby the lining membrane ot
tbe noae becomes Inflamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward Into the throat reaches the
stomach, thus producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities pre
scribed for me for three years for ca
tarrh of the stomach without cure, but
todRy I am the happiest of men after
using only one box of Stuart’s Dyspep
sia Tablets. I cannot And appropriate
words to express my good feeling. I
have found flesh, appetite and sound
rest from their use.”
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is tbe
safest preparation as well as the sim
plest and most convenient remedy for
any form of Indigestion. Catarrh of
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heartburn and bloating after meals.
