Indigestion—dyspepsia—is caused by what is put into the stomach in the way of improper food, the kind that so taxes the strength of,the digestive organs they are actually crippled. When this state is reached, to resort to tonics is like whipping a tired horse with a big load. Every additional effort he makes under the lash diminishes his power to move the load. Try helping the stomach by leaving off heavy, greasy, indigestible food and take on Grape-Nut*— light, easily digested full of strength for nerves and brain. In every grain of it- There's no waste of time nor energy when Grape-Nuts is the food. “I am an enthusiastic user of Grape- Nuts and consider it an ideal food." writes a Maine man: **l bad nervous dyspepsia and was all run down and my food seemed to do me but little good.

"Am much stronger, not nervous now, and can do more work without feeling so tired, and am better every way. "I relish Grape-Nuts best with cream and use four heaping teaspoonfuls as the cereal part of a meal.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—The financ.a’ statement which was given out last night by National Treasurer Rolla Wells, of the Democratic national committea, contains the name of every Georgian who has subscribed a cent to the Wilson- Marshall campaign fund. The statement is the first of its kind ever issued in a national campaign, and Is complete in ev ery detail. It appears that James R. Gray, of At lanta. and Carl Mendel, of Savannah, are the largest Georgia contributors. The former sent his cheek for 1250 to the national treasurer, while Mr. Mendel sub scribed 5100. It is believed, however, that many Georgians will contribute liberally to the campaign fund. As Treasurer Weils points out, the 5K3,- 000 that has been contributed, is totally inadequate to properly conduct a cam paign of the importance and magnitude of one in which the Democratic party is now engaged. It is estimated that the expenses of the campaign from now on will amount to >IOO,OOO a week. RECORD IS KEPT. It Is well enough for all Democrats to understand that whether they con tribute directly to the national treas urer, to any of the several Democratic newspapers of their states or through the banks tbat have agreed to accept contri butions. their names, addresses and the amounts of their subscriptions will be properly accredited on the books in na tional headquarters. These books, particu larly those of the treasurer, promise to become historical, as they will represent an entirely new departure in American politics. The name of every person who gives a cent to the Wlson-Marehail cam paign will be of record and the record will be subject to the scrutiny of whom soever may desire to make inquiry. A notable feature of the statement issued last night is that absence from the list of contributors of any big cor porations or persons seeking government al favors, such as have characterised the campaigns of Roosevelt, Taft and other Republican nominees for president. Twelve thousand persons have contri buted thus for to the fund. W. G.

She was borne into the house on a stretcher, and carried to the bed where the body of the child lay. After a last look at her little one, she was removed to another room and given stimulants to sustain her strength. Recently she was operated on and was recovering from the effects of this operation when she was told of her baby's death. Physicians feared that tn deny her the opportunity of seeing her little one for the last time would be a greater shock than to carry her home and bear her Into the death room.

An older child, Lola, crossed the car ’ tracks Sunday morning to the sentinel tower tn the prison grounds, where Mr. Mayfield's morning paper ia delivered.

Ga., Sept. 9.—Basing her south Georgia search on a dream recently had after worrying during the earlier part of the night over her re cent failures to locate a long missing father, Mrs. Rilla McCrocklin, of Pi mento, Ind., has addressed a pathetic letter of inquiry to Waycross parties. Her father, George W. Bowre, has been away from his old home in Indiana for twenty-three years, and since he left his daughter has heard nothing direct from him. A few weeks ago ahe had a dream, in which she saw a newly cleared field, with a lot of stumps, and nearby a number of log cabins or cabins of some rude construction. In one of these she thought she caught a fleeting glimpse of her father, his long white beard waving slightly from a breeze. "I do not believe in dreams,” writes Mrs. McCrocklin, “but this message, coming after so many fruitless efforts on my part, directed my attention to south Georgia, especially where 1 learn ed mills were being operated.” The missing man is described as rath er large, now eighty-one years old, very gray, with fair skin and blue eyes. He wears a long, full beard and when last seen was near Arcadia, Fla. HAS SEARCHED THE SOUTH. According to the story told. Mrs. McCrocklin has made two trips through the south since her father became lost to her. These trips have taken all of her available resources and after toil ing hard and depriving herself of all luxuries and even some of the absolute necessities of life, she is ready to make a third trip this fall and winter. At two places in Florida the daughter heard news of her father, but lost the clues when her hopes were highest. ”1 had thought for so many years that he must be dead, and then hearing of him and coming so near finding him proved most too much for me. The ex citement and disappointment and hard work for funds t ogo back on, broke me down. I have no one to help me in any way. I have always worried about father since he went away. There was no reason for his leaving without let ting me keep in touch with him. He had been well-to-do but had some busi ness reverses. However, he was mak ing out all right." MESSENGER DIED WITH THE NEWS. A few years ago Mrs. McCrocklin heard from an old man who had spent the winter in Florida that he had seen her father and knew where he was liv ing at the time. Mrs. McCrocklin hur ried to the town where this man lived, but got there just in time to attend his funeral. He had been taken ill after letting her know he had some news, and had failed to leave any written message. In spite of this setback she kept on working, and learned that her father spent some months near and at Gainesville. Fla. There all trace of him was lost. That Mr. Bowre had some land inter ests near Ocala. Fla., was evident from certain papers left at his Indiana home, but so far his daughter has been unable to get any Information from this source. She closes her letter with , a pitiful appeal for any news anyone may have of such a man as she de scribes her father. ‘T do so waJit to find, him.” she says, "and information from an>’ source will certainly be ap preciated."

Wealthy Ranch Owner, Who is Visiting in Atlanta John S. McCaughan, for several years United States consul at Durango, Mexi co, now the owner of a cattle ranch of 150,000 acres near Durango, is visiting his sister, Mrs. Robert H. Brown. 442 West Peachtree street, and he says that the reports of the rebel outrages in Mexico have been greatly exaggerated. “But for the exaggerated reports of the insurrection, which broke out two years ago, I believe it would have been suppressed,” says he. "American interests have not been jeopardised by the rebels, at least not in the state of Durango. Once or twice the rebels visited our ranch, but they did not cause any excitement. The ranch foreman invited th* officers to his house for dinner, and the ranchman supplied the soldiers and their horses with something to eat. When they were leaving the rebels picked out sev eral horses and two head of beef .cat tle. They gave receipts for the same, and I expect to be paid, no matter which side is ultimately victorious.” Mr. McCaughan was formerly a prominent lawyer at Des Moines, lowa. He was appointed consul to Durango about 25 years ago. His headquarters were in Durango, which is the capital of the state of that name. At the ex piration of his term he invested in ranch lands and is now making a for tune. Speaking of conditions in Mexico gen erally, Mr. McCaughan says there are good and that the country offers excel lent opportunities to make money.

Name Street City State BUTTS COUNTY SPLIT OVER EDICT OF JURY (Special Dispatch to The Journal ) JACKSON, Ga., Sept. 9.—The recom mendation of the last grand jury that the office of county commissioner be abolished and a law passed creating eight commissioner*, one for each dis trict In Butts county, has created a good deal of excitement and discussion throughout the cdunty. That a good many people favor the plan is evident by the fact that the change was recom mended by the grand jury. It is equally certain that another large element of the people of the county oppose any change in the present law. It is pointed out by those who favor the proposed law that by having eight commissioners the different districts would come nearer getting their share of road work. Those who are against the recommendation hold that one man can manage the* affairs of the county better than eight and point to the splendid road wofk being done under di rection of Commissioner J. O. Gaston. The citizens of the county are very much wrought up over the matter, which threatens to be a political issue for some time to come- Two .of the candidates who made the race for rep resentative on a platform favoring eight commissioners were defeated by a can didate who championed th* present plan, and there will not likely be any law passed affecting the present plan dur ing the Immediate future.
