The ordinances to improve portions of
an ,j Farm streets by paving with
blocks were adopted by the city
* ... recessed meeting held yester
eouncii a. a .
afternoon.
J crvatt street is to be paved from the
' ide of Whitaker street to the east
7, of Farm street and Farm from the
51 ,.th side of Bryan street to the south
7 o£ Bay street. Both ordinances were
unanimously adopted, eleven votes, the
fu ll number present, being cast for each.
Dr Falligant brought up the question of
.oviding for house drainage in laying the
Bryan street pavement by requiring the
urooertv owners to make the proper house
connections. A house drainage pipe
thould be laid down the center of the
street he said, and pipes for house con
ations put down. This would save the
property owners the expense of tearing up
and replacing the pavement when it be
comes necessary for them to make these
connections. Other aldermen suggested
that as no house drainage system had
bein agreed upon, the proper levels for
the drainage pipes could not be ascertain
ed. Dr. Falligant said that, on second
thought, the tearing up of the pavement
could probably be avoided by laying two
small pipes along each curb instead of one
large pipe down the center of the street.
The council generously donated to the
colored military a lot at Cuyler street and
Xeiv Houston street lane, a site to be
usel for the erection of an armory. An
ordinance for this purpose was introduced,
read a second time by unanimous con
sent and adopted unanimously. The con
sideration for the deed to the property is
S The lot is known as the old artesian
well lo f and is located on the city map as
subdivision B of lot No. 5, Marshall ward.
The ordinance provides that the title to
the lot shall be held by the First Battal
ion of Infantry, Georgia Volunteers, col
ored. the Georgia Artillery, colored, and
the Savannah Hussars (colored), for their
joint use and benefit, so long as the same
is used as an armory for military pur
poses.
The matter of an armory site for the col
ored military was brought to the atten
tion of council by Oapt. J. C. Simmons of
the Georgia Artillery, who petitioned coun
cil to present the lot at Cuyler and New
Houston street lane for this purpose. The
lot has lain unused for a long time and
was of no value to the city except as a
real estate asset. The gift will doubtless
be appreciated by the colored military.
The salary of the keeper of the city dis
pensary was fixed at $1,200 per annum and
of the assistant keeper at S9OO per annum,
and they are to be elected to their posi
tions for three years. A communication
was received from the sanitary board,
stating that the salaries named had been
agreed upon by the board, and recom
mending that these officials be elected for
three years. The recommendations of the
bottl'd were agreed to.
Alderman Hudson brought up the mat
ter of a branch dispensary for the south
ern section of the city, saying that the
distance to the dispensary from south of
the park extension was too great for aged
and feeble persons to walk. Mayor Myers
stated that the sanitary board now has
this matter under consideration, and will
prohabiy make a recommendation to coun
cil on the lines suggested by Alderman
Hudson.
A petition was read from Messrs. W. D.
Harden, Jacob Gardner and J. P. White,
representing the Confederate Veterans
Association, requesting that the council
set aside two or three lots in Laurel
Grove 1 ■ metery for the use of the con
federate veterans for the burial of such
of their number as left no means to pro
vide for their interment. Alderman Hud
son said that he was in favor of grant
ing the petition at once. The petition
uas referred, however, to the committee
on public health, with instructions to re
port to the committee of the whole. There
Is little doubt but that the request will
be granted.

Dyspepsia and Other Disorders
Arising From Indigestion De
stroy Cheerful Disposi
tions and Shatter the
Nerve Power.
The man or woman who suffers from
dyspepsia is one who is to be pitied and
who is in a better position than any-one
not likewise afflicted, to Judge how baf
fling to the medical profession are the
numerous ailments that arise from indi
gestion. It is generally known that from
indigestion result a multitude of human
complaints and every part of the human
system, every nerve and every faculty
can be destroyed by the inroads made by
this disorder.
When the victim of indigestion is at
tacked by dyspepsia and the malady be
comes confirmed the nerves are destroyed,
irritability, anxiety and excitability take
the place of a cheerful disposition, and are
followed by apathy, drowsiness and loss
of all courage and energy, and other dis
agreeable symptoms until the life of the
dyspeptic is a dreary one. He becomes
dissatisfied with every one. He is at outs
with the whole world and oftentimes the
complaint leads its victim by constant fits
of melancholia to the grave of a suicide.
Dyspepsia is the cause of a large propor
tion of the unhappiness existing by rea
son of the many excitable and irritable
temperS that it has occasioned. The fact
that the cure of dyspepsia has seemingly
baffled the general practitioner; of medi
cine whose time is largely occupied in
riding around the streets, does not neces
sarily show the cure of the complaint is
a hard task to those who have devoted
time to its study, and who have therefore
discovered the important agent that has
been lacking in its treatment. The spec
ialist, if he meets the confidence of the
public, will have more cases of dyspepsia
to treat than will any twenty doctors, and
it is only natural that he w-ill have at his
hand the latest and most approved rem
edies applicable to loss of appetite, Indi
gestion, impoverished blood, imperfect as
similation and all diseases arising from
faulty nutrition. Abbo has expended much
time and money in scientific investigation
of the many disorders arising from indi
gestion, and he is to-day, at a cost of
thousands of dollars, in possession of the
knowledge of certain remedies which act
with wonderful Influence over these com
plaints. In short, Abbo absolutely cures
dyspepsia and other complaints of the
digestive organs, and hundreds of people
in this city who have been sufferers for
years can testify to the wonderful effect
of Abbo’s treatment.
Not only has Abbo demonstrated his
powers in the successful cure of dyspep
sia, but the other serious disorders of
digestion have also been dispelled under
his powers. Inflamation of the stomach
(Gastritis), gastric ulcers, neuralgia of the
stomach (Gastralgia), habitual constipa
tion, catarrh of the stomach and the gen
eral debility that attends all diseases in
this class have been given more than care
ful study and attention by Abbo, and as
a result of thousands of cases that he has
successfully treated he is recognized as a
specialist of highest ability.
TREAT YOU AT HOME.
Abbo can diagnose your case and give
you what remedies your case demands
without requiring a visit to the institute.
If you reside in some distant city send for
one of Abbo’s symptom blanks and it will
be promptly forwarded to you by mail.
Then you can return it with your symp
toms described thereon, and the return
mail will bring what advice and informa
tion Abbo thinks necessary In reference
to your case.
This is absolutely free and should you
desire home treatment for your disease,
terms will be made that cannot be refused
by anyone who is seeking relief.

Many Improvements in Hie Town.
Moultrie, Ga., Jan. 18.—There is a steady
Improvement in this town. A large num
ber of people are arriving constantly and
making investments.
The new railroad from Sparks is only two
miles from here and a force-of hands is
now at work on It. It wi'.i only be a short
time before it will be completed.
An election has been called to vote on a
$5,000 bond issue to build a modern school
building. Twelve hundred dollars of the
whisky license and 20 per cent, of the ad
valorem tax has been appropriated to
school purposes.
Mumford Bros, of Eastman have estab
lished a bottling works. The Colquitt
County Cooperage Company are making
arrangements to rebuild their factory. The
Presbyterians have awarded the contract
to build a very handso&e little church near
the center of the town. Mrs. W. H. Wiggs
of Cochran, a member of the firm of Har
rell & Wiggs of this place, has bought the
vacant lot next to the bank, and will at
an early date build two quite handsome
buildings. The second story will be used
as opera house and public hall. An ef
fort is being made to build a brick hotel
on the corner next to the bank.
There have been several changes In ho
tels here. The Central will be under the
same management as last year. The Bar
rett house will be run by Mr. Greer of
Pearson and the Spivey house by Mr.
Wardell of Johnston station.
There lias been considerable prevalence
of the grlppo for lhe past two weeks. Mr.
Z. H. Clark, cashier of the Moultrie Bank
ing Company, has been quite 111. Mr. Matt
J. Pearssll has been acting cashier.
It is remarkable that there Is not a bus
iness house here doing a credit business
this year. Here is a fine opening for one,
though many think that the present plan
will be a success.
The turpentine operators are carefully
carrying out the agreement to reduce the
quantity of new boxes cut this season.
The hands, however, are complaining that
they are much more careful about the
kind of box that Is cut. There is some
what a scarcity of turpentine hands. Sev
eral have gone to the Carollnas for them.
Mr. W. C. Vereen has leased the fine body
of timber of Mr. W. W. Ashburn, but It
will not b<- rut this season.
