REFORM MAYOR NAMED
8! PHILADELPHIANS
Blankenburg Defeats ‘‘Ring .
Candidate by Small Plural
ity in Remarkable Fight L
11
• (By AwociaUd Ftw».)
PHILADELPHIA. Nev. 8. —Rudolph
Blankenburg. independent Republican. *
and popularly known as the -war horse
pf reform." yesterday defeated Geotge
H. Earle. Jr., the Republican organisa
tion candidate, for mayor of Philadelphia
by the small plurality of 4.364.
The fight jnade by Blankenburg was
remarkable Facing a normal Republi- j
can majority of between 75.900 and 19®,•
000 and a candidate backed by United
States Senator Penrose and State Sena
tor James J. McNichol, the organisation
trader of this city. Blankenburg. running
on a reform ticket, battled his way to
victory against terrific odds.
The significance Os the Blankenburg
landslide can be appreciated when the
total vote of 268.224 is taken into eon
| rideration.
Tbe closeness of the vote between
I Earle and Blankenburg was due to sev-
eral causes, the main one being the bit
ter fight at the primaries between Earle
and William S. Vare in which the former
won by a large majority. The sores
caused by this fight had not healed,
fudging froftt tne vote which the down-
B town wards, those controlled by Vare. ,
gave to the reform candidate.
While Blankenburg was successful for
mayor, the other regular Republican |
Candidates won. with the possible excep
tion of the of ice of clerk of quarter ses
sions court.

mony of Honest Citizens?
Some time ago I began the use of your
Swamp-Root with the moat remarkable
results. For years I w»s almost a
wreck and was a great sufferer. The
doctors who treated me made me be
lieve that my great sufferings were due
to female trouble. I was so bad ar
times I would faint awgy and had sink
ing spell* finally a new doctor was
called in and he said that I had kidney
trouble and gave me - medicine, of which
I took several bottles.- I obtained some
relief from this but I was getting weak
er all the time, could not sleep and suf
fered so much pain that my busband
a: I childrer had to lift me in and out
of bed. After thia time two friends
sent me word to try Swamp-Root, which
I did. and I am glad to state that the
frist dose gave me great relief. Aft
er taking the third dose I was helped
into bed and slept half of the night.
I took several bottles of Swamp-Root
and I feel that I owe my life to this
wonderful remedy. The two family doc
tors said that I could not live three
months. I would have to be helped In
and out of bed ten to twenty times
every nignt. After taking Dr. Kilmer's
Sr-amp-Root for two days I was enirely
free from getting up and could sleep
soundly.

LONDON, Nov. B.—The seeretary of
foreign affaita. Sir Edward Grey, In the

danger of spreading false news offensive

"Some of these days,” he remarked,

public sentiment and excitement will get
beyond the control of the government
concerned.”
Incidents which roused Sir Edward
British ambassador at Vienna and an
alleged passage in the speech of Home
Secretary McKinna, both strongly criti
cising Germany. The foreign minister
explained that neither the ambassador
nor Mr. McKinna had been guilty of
the alleged indiscretions, but before thiM
was known in Germany, the incidents
had been construed as a direct affront,
and called forth a request for explana
tions from the German government.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH
▲ I’leasant, Simple, But Safa and Ef
fectual Cura For Xt.
COSTS NOTHING TO T*Y.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the hext thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sennatioti after eating, accompanied
sometimes with'sour or watery risings, a
formation of gases, causing pressure on
tire heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing, headaches, fickle appetite, nervous
ness and a general played out. languid
feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and If the interior
of the stomach could be seen it would
show a slimy. Inflamed condition.
The cure of r this common and obstinate
trouble is found in a treatment which
cause* the food to be readily, thoroughly
digested before it has time to ferment
and Irritate the delicate mucous surfaces
of the stomach. To secure a prompt and
healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing to do, and when normal digestion
is secured the catarrhal condition will
have disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson, the saftest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastase,
Aseptic Pepsin, a title Nux, Golden Seal
and fruit acids. These tablets can now
be found at all drug stores under the
name of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets and
not being a patent medicine can be used
with perfect safety and assurance that
health appetite and thorough digestion
will follow their regular use after
meals.
The plan of dieting is simply another
name for starvation, and the use of pre
pared foods and new ,angled breakfast
foods simply’ makes matters worse as
any dyspeptic who has tried them
knows.
As Dr. Barnett says, the only reason I
can imagine why Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets are not universally used by every
body who is troubled in any way with
poor digestion, is because many people
seem to think that because a medicine is
advertised or is sold in drug stores or
is protected by a trade-mark It must be
a humbug, whereas, as a matter of truth,
any druggist who is observant knows
that Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets have
cured more people of catarrh of the stom
ach. indigestion, heartburn, heart trou
ble, nervous prostration and rue-down
condition generally, than all the patent
1 medicines and doctors’ prescriptions for
stomach trouble combined.
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets is tho safest
preparation as well as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any form of
indigestion, catarrh of the stomach, bil
iousness, sour .stomach, heartburn and
bloating after meals. . .

From the usually strong Republican

fact on the label, as Uncle Sam says:
"THE LABEL MUST TELL THE TRUTH,"
But the fact that the label must tell the truth, is the very-reason

MISSISSIPPI FIETIDNS
DEDUCE BILBO'S LEAD
Miss., Nov. B.—Further
returns early today from yesterday’s
election tend to show that Theodore G.
Bilbo, Democratic candidate for lieu
tenant governor, will not lead his oppo-
James E. Lester, Socialist, by
more than 3,000 out of 30,000 to 35.000
votes polled.
I Lester’s heavy showing is the result
■of a factional fight in the Democratic
party, the greatest opposition being made
to Bilbo. Natchez, Vicksburg, Biloxi,
Gulfport and Greenville gave majorities
for Lester. i
Full returns will not be received for
several days. In many precincts work
of counting the vote did not begin until
today. The light vote Is attributed to
heavy rains yesterday, which were gen
eral throughout the state.
Forsyth Court Meets
FORSYTH, Ga., Nov. B.—City court

liams, Jr., is looking after the interests
of the state. Both the civil and criminal
