DR. WURTH’S OPINION
Os the New Discovery in Medicine—A Re
markably Successful Remedy for Dys
pepsia, Indigestion and Stom
ach Troubles.
Dr. Wurth, in commenting on recent
discoveries in medicine, said: There is
none which is certain to be so valuable and
far reaching in benefit as Stuart’s Dyspep
sia Tablets, the new stomach remedy; 1
say far reaching, because .people little re
alize how important a sound stomach and
a vigorous digestion is to every man, wo
man and child.
Indigestion is the starting point Os con
sumption, heart disease, Bright disease,
diabetes, nervous prostration, liver
troubles; why -is this so? Simply because
eevery nerve muscle and tissue in our
bodies is created and nourished from the
food we eat. If this food, is by reason of
a weak stomach, compelled to lie for hours
a sour, fermenting mass of half digested
food, it poisons the blood and nervous
system, creates gas which distends the
stomach and ‘bowels, causing pressure on
the heart, lungs and other organs and se
riously impeding their action.
He says further, the point to direct at
tention is not the nerves, nor heart, nor
lungs, nor kidneys, but the stomach, the
first cause of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for indigestion and
weak stomachs is not some cathartic, but
a remedy which will digest the food, in
crease the flow 7 of gastric juice, absorb the
gases, and Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets will
accomplish exactly this result in case of
stomach trouble, because these tablets are
composed of the digestive acids, aseptic
pepsin, Golden Seal and bismuth, pleasant
to taste, and not being a patent medicine
can be used by anyone with perfect safe
ty. I believe Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets
will cure any form of indigestion and
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
Full size paffitage of Stuart’s Dyspepsia
Tablets are sold by druggists at 50 cents.
A book on stomach diseases together with
thousands of testimonials -will be sent by
addressing Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich.

LONDON AND
PARIS_STREETS
What a Well Known Writer
Says of Their Noiseless
ness and Durability.
MACON HAS A CHANCE
To Use the Same Material if the
Proposition of the Williams
Block Company is Accepted.
The presence of Messrs. Grant and Lar
ramore, of the Williams Block Paving
company, in Macon, has aroused consider
able interest in the subject of wooden
blocks as a paving material.
At first the average citizen would con
found this new wooden block pavement
with the old Nicholson pavement, but
there is as much or more difference as be
tween granite cubes and cobblestones. The
Williams block pavement is said to be sim
ply the perfection of paving blocks, com
bining at once a smooth surface, sufficient
elasticity, durability and noiselessness.
Prior to 1876, all wooden block pave
ments constructed were under the device
patented by Samuel'Nicholson in 1854, with
slight modifications, but essentially the
same, ana with like fata! results.
All since 1876 (with rare exceptions)
have been in accordance with the device
patented by Henry Williams in that year.
Those provided under the Nicholson pat
ent were never provided with a concrete
or stone bed, but were laid on one inch
boards for a foundation, and some were
laid directly on the sand.
The blocks were, as a rule, sawed from
unseasoned lumber, just as it came from
the sawmill, without treatment of any
kind to guard against decay. They were
usually three or four inches in thickness,
and were placed in rows running from
curb to curb, with spaces of an inch be
tween the rows, under the theory that such
spaces were necessary to give a sure foot
ing for horses. But experience proved
those openings not only unnecessary, but
on .the contrary a positive curse, for they
served as celles to hold water, which soon
reached the under sides of the blocks, and
caused decay and rapid destruction to -the
pavement.
The pavements constructed since 1876, in
accordance with the Williams device, have
had solid concrete or stone foundations,
and the blocks of wood usc-d have been
thoroughly seasoned, and coated with well
prepared asphalt to hermetically seal the
fibre. And thus prepared, they have been
laid in asphalt cement, thus producing a
compact arid waterproof mass of stone,
wood and asphaltum, which has effectually
prevented decay. ,
After which an asphaltum glue, as thin
as water, well heated, is poured over the
surface in sufficient quantity to run into
and fill every crack or opening between
the blocks, and leave a thin coating of
about one-eighth of an inch over the en
tire surface. Then a thin layer of sharp
sand, wejlheated, is spread over the sur
face and pressed into the asphalt coating
by means of hot rollers, and the work is
complete.
A pavement thus constructed is water
proof and practically indestructible, so
long as the surface coating is maintained.
And experience has clearly proven that
that can be done at a minimum of cost as
compared with the necessary repairs to
other styles of pavement.
The Williams block pavement, as above
shown, is by no means an experiment, al
though as .vet new on this side of the
Rocky mountains.
The handsomest streets of San Francisco,
however, are said to be paved with these
blocks, while, as is well knwn, the won
derful pavements of Paris and London,
whose “noiseless streets” have been fa
mous for the past fifteen years, are none
other than the Williams bloocks.
About a year ago Mr. Joe Johnson, of
the Atlanta Journal, made a trip to Eu
rope, and while there wrote interest ngly
to his paper about all matters of interest.
Among the things that struck nim with
much force were the streets of Paris and
London, about which he wrote as follows:
“But what 1 wanted particularly to say
was something about the wooden pave
ment. Byway of a general preface to
cover immediately every argument against
it, let me say that streets bearing the
heaviest traffic of mightly London are
paved with it. 'And what is the traffic of
any city to London’s? What, indeed, is
Atlanta’s to It? And the wooden clocks of
London’s streets, and there are miles of
It, are pounded by the heaviest of horses
drawing the heaviest of wagons and om
nibuses. Mare weight is felt by one of
London's chief wooden streets in a week
than would ever be felt, were such a street
built in Atlanta, in a year. Therefore, the
wooden pavement of London is not an ex<-
periment, except that it is a successful
one. I was talking to a man in praise of
this pavement, when he said:
“Yes, but it’s unhealthy. Look at Mem
phis.”
“On the other hand, it is not unhealthy.
Look at London. iNobody ever attributes
any of the reasonably small mortality
there to the .pavement. In fact, this
charge has never been brought at all
against this wooden pavement. Besides
the wooden pavement of London and the
wooden pavement of Memphis are two en
tirely different affairs. The top of the
London pavement, by virtue of its con
struction, sheds water like an umbrella.
The Memphis pavement, by reason, by
improper construction, soaked up the rain,
and thus bred the germs of disease.”
It is evident that the wooden block
pavement is well worth attention,.
' Messrs. Grant and Larramore seem well
equipped with the necessary evidence as to
its superlative merits over all ether ma
terials.

Miss Francis Willard in New
York Died Shortly After
Midnight.
UNIVERSALLY MOURNED
One of the Best Women in This Coun
try Has Been Called Away—Fu
neral Will be in Chicago.
New York, Feb. 18. —Miss Francis E.
Willard, president of the Woman’s Chris
tian Temperance Union, died shortly after
midnight this morning at the Hotel Em
pire.
At the bedside of Miss V/illard at the
time of her death were her niece, Mrs.
W. W. Baldwin; Mrs. L. M. Stevens, vice
president of the Woman’s Christian Tem
perance Union; Miss Anna M. Gordon,
Miss Willard’s private secretary, and Dr.
Alfred K. Hill.
Miss Willard has been ill for about three
weeks.
There will be funeral services in New
York city, and later In Evanston, 111., Miss
Willard’s home, where the body will be
taken.
Frances Elizabeth Willard was born in
Churchville, N. Y., Sept. 28, 1839. She was
graduated at Northwestern Female college,
Evanston, 111., in 1859, became professor of
natural science there in 1862, and was
principal of Genessee Wesleyan seminary
in 1866-67. The following two years she
spent in foreign travel, giving a part of the
time to study in Paris, and contributing to
.periodicals. In 1871-74 she was professor
of ethics in Northwestern university and
dean of the women’s college, where she
developed her system of self-government,
which had been adopted by oth&r educa
tors.
Miss Willard left her profession in 1874
to identify herself with the Woman’s
Christian Temperance Union, serving as
corresponding secretary of the national or
ganization until 1879, and since that time
as president. As .secretary of the organi
zation she organized the home protection
movement, and sent an appeal from nearly
200,000 persons to the legislature of Illinois
asking for the temperance ballot for wo
men. After the death of her brother, Oliver
A. Willard, in 1879, she succeeded him as
editor of the Chicago Evening Post.
In 1886 she accepted the leadership of
the White Cross movement in her own
unions, which had been established
through her influence in twelve states for
the protection of women.
In 1888 she was made president of the
International Council of Women and the
World’s Christian Temperance Union, she
had founded five years before, and was re
peatedly re-elected. Besides many pam
phlets and contributions to magazines and
the press, Miss Willard has published sev
eral volumes relating to temperance and
other reforms.
Miss Willard’s Funeral.
Chicago, Feb. 18 —The formal services
over the remains of Miss Frances E. Wil
lard, president of the World’s Women’s
Christian Temperance Union, will be held
in New York on Sunday. The body w’ill
then be sent Ito Chicago. Miss Katherine
L. Stevenson, corresponding secretary of
the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union
said today, “it was 'the present intention
to have the committee of Miss Willard’s
friends and co-workers in Chicago to meet
the body between here and New York and
act as escort during the journey west. The
body will be then taken to Miss Willard’s
home in Evanston, where, Thursday, the
funeral will be held, probably from the
First Methodist church, where Miss Wil
lard attended for years. It is possible this
part of the program may he changed, how
ever, as the church is a comparatively
small one and would probably be inade
quate to hold the crowds who would at
tend the funeral of the dead temperance
leader, and for this reason mabe the
services will be held in Chicago. Inter
ment wil take place at Rose Hill cemetery,
where Miss Willard’s mother is buried.’’
