A DOCTOR'S TRIALS.
H* Sometimes Gets 8ick Like Other
Pseplt.
Kven doing good to people Is hard
work If you have too much of It to
do.
No one knows this better than the
hard-working, conscientious family
ddetor. He has troubles of his own—
often gets caught In the rtiln and snow,
or loses so much sleep he sometimes
gets out of sorts. An over-worked Ohio
doctor'tells his experience:
"About three yean ago as the result
of doing two men's work, attending
large practice and looking after the de-
isll* of another business, my health
broke down completely, and I was Ut
ile heller than a physical wreck.
“I suffered from Indigestion and Con
stipation, loss of weight and appetite,
bloating and pain utter meals, loss of
memory anti lack of nerve force for
continued mental application.
"1 became Irritable, easily angered
and despondent without cause. The
heart's action became Irregular and
weak, with frequent attacks of pal
pitation during the flrst hour or two
after retiring.
“Borne Grape-Nuts and cut bananas
came for my lunch one day ami pleased
me pertlculsrly with the result. I got
more satisfaction from it than from
anything I had c-aten for months, and
on further Investigation and use,
adopted Grape-Nuts for my morning
and evening meals, served usually with
cream or a sprinkle of salt or sugar.
"My Improvement was rapid and
permanent In weight as well a* In
physical and mental endurance. In a
worn, I am tilled with the Joy of liv
ing again, and continue the daily use
of Crape-Nut* for breakfast und often
for the evening meal.

Washington, Nov. 21.—One fJ week
hence the Anal' session of the fiftj'-
ninth congress will be doing business
und many of the members of boll)
branches are Already gathered Tn
Washington In anticipation of the open.
Ing. As a-gWral thing the short tea
sion Is neither a tAM" tin? an Impor
tant one, but the prevailing opinion
among the legislators Is that the ap*
proachfng session will brush aside
precedent nnd establish a record for
the dispatch of important business.
The president Is expected to make a
number of new recommendations in his
message, which, wltji the large amount
of left-over business and the appropri
ation bills, will certainty keep botli
the house and the senate "on the Jump"
to clgftr the decks' baton- the congress
expire* on the 4th of next March.
The Republicans reel that . the
strength of the administration ha* been
Increased by the November elections,
which means that the, president will
push ahead’ determinedly with the de
velopment of hi* executive and legisla
tive program.
May Kssp Hands Off.
If the president's withes are heeded
congress will keep its hands off tho
Cuban situation and leave the adminis
tration frsd'iogo ahead with its pres
ent plans for the pacification of the
Island. It Is. not thought that tho com
ing sfesslon will tackle the subject of
corporation*, though this Is one of the
"leaders" In the- president's program.
Many of the party leaders believe It
wiser to lot such an Important sub
ject at live president's demand for a

whether It gets through at this' ses

strong effort is to be made to
pull through the ship subsidy bill. This
measure was passed by the senate Iasi
session, but was held up In the house.
The fate of the bill Is In the speaker's
bands, and If Mr. Cannon can be won
over the measure will become a law.
The bill lowering Ihe duties on Phil
ippine products entering Hie United
Btates, popularly known as ths Phil
tpplne tsrlff bill. Is another Important
piece of "left-over" legislation. Pre.l-*
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Taft me
both strongly in favor of this legists

way toward strengthening the faith

will came up for n vole In January.
This measure has the approval of tlie
president and It Is probable Ilia! It
may be enacted at the present ses

Among the other unfinished pieces
of legislation that will be pressing for
consideration are the Foraker bill, to
make Porto Ricans citizen* of Ihe

—8AYS COMMISSIONER HUDSON
"Georgia will pot‘produce over 1,366,-
006 bales of cotton this year, afid It Is
my Judgment that It will not be much
over 1,400,060."
'Thin Is a statement made by Agricul
tural Commissioner Hudson while talk
ing of the recent meeting of commis
sioners In Jacksonville and the dis
cussion-there of the advisability of
leaving off crop estimate* at the an
nual meetings.
No estimate was'made this year, but
because The commissioner* from Texas,
Loulslnnq end one or two other slates
were absent. It I* probable, however,
that' some acUon will be •ak-n next
year at the meeting In Columbia, 8. Cj

The Modern Way
to Sell Goods
Trade conditions are changing mightily froni the old
ways. It used to be that the retail salesman had to do a
lot of introductory and educational work-—had to spend
much time showing various goods and explaining their
merits. Now all this preliminary work is done before
the customer goes to the store done by advertising.
Staples of high quality, as well as novelties, are adver
tised by name, brand or trade-mark, their uses and ^
merits are made known through newspapers, and the
consumer is thoroughly familiar with their value and
desirability when the need for them arises.
And people buy the goods they know by name and
reputation'in'preference to unknown, unadvertised arti
cles. The dealer finds them easier to sell, therefore the
jobber has a better demand for them. Thus the manu
facturer who advertises his wares to the consumer creates
a demand that the dealer and jobber must supply with
his goods and no other.
The manufacturer who uses this newspaper reaches
the best consumers in this locality, reaches them when
they have time to consider his claims for their patronage
and reaches them through a medium that helps him with
its own influence. The Massengalc Advertising Agency,
of Atlanta, Ga., can help any manufacturer in the prepa
ration and placing of convincing advertising matter.
