Clogged Bowels a
Menace to Health
Constipation at Bottom of
Most Serious Illnesses—
Avoided by a Simple
Remedy.
Trace the origin of the commoner
ills of life and almost invariably you
will find that constipation was the
cause. It is not to be expected that a
mass of fermented food can remain in
the system beyond its time without vi
tiating the blood and affecting the
nerves and muscles. It congests the
entire body. /
The results are colds, fevers, piles,
headaches and nervousness with its ac
companying indigestion and sleepless
ness. There is only one thing to do.
and that is to remove the trouble: and
when nature seems unable to do it,
outside aid is necessary. You will
find the best of all outside aids a rem
edy that many thousands are now us
ing for this very purpose, called Dr.
Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. Many hun
dreds of letters are received by Dr.
Caldwell telling the good results ob
tained, and among the enthusiastic let
ters is one from Docia Wood of Little
River Academy, North Carolina, who
suffered with constipation and indiges-
ti n so badly that she could not sleep
well at night and everything she ate
distressed her. She writes that after
her mother had given her Dr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin she “can now eat
anything.”
It has untold advantages over pills,
salts and the various coarse cathartics
and purgatives, for while these do but
temporary good, Syrup Pepsin cures
permanently. The effect of its action
is to train the stomach and bowel mus-
DOCIA WOOD
cles to do their work naturally again,
and in a short time all forms of* medi
cine can be dispensed with. It can be
bought without inconvenience at any
nearby drug store for fifty cents and
one dollar a bottle, the latter size be
ing regularly bought by those who al
ready know its valu'. Results are al
ways guaranteed or money will be re
funded.
If no member of your family has
ever used Syrup Pepsin and you would
like to make a personal trial of it be

druggist, send your address—a postal

GEORGIA MOURNS PASSING OF
FORMER GOVERNOR W.J. NORTHEN
_ Former Governor William Jonathan-
Xorthen. twice chief executive of Geor
gia. a statesman loved and respected in
both public and private life, passed
away at 11:10 o’clock Tuesday morning
at his home, 734 Piedmont avenue,
where for weeks he has been fighting
against certain death.
Since early in February it has been
known that Governor Northen could not
live. It was then that he was taken
very sick with Sl carbuncle on his neck.
He was seventy-eight years of age, and
he rapidly weakened, despite the efforts
made to heal the wound.
Last week, congestion of the^ lungs
developed. The sick man passed "into a
comatose condition, and when the end
came Tuesday morning he had remained
unconscious to the last.
The name of W. J. Northen is 'one
which will live as long as that of
Georgia, for he grew up with the state,
her interest his, his life devoted to the
good of her and her people. He has
lived in Georgia all his life, is a gradu
ate of one of her colleges, was rector
of a Georgia school, served in her leg
islature and her senate, and for two
terms occupied the governor's chair.
He was as faithful a churchman as
he was a statesman: For years he was
a devoted Baptist, and at the time of
his death belonged to the Ponce de
Leon Baptist church. He ts survived
only by his Wife, formerly .Miss Martha
Moss Neel, and one daughter, Miss
Anna Belle Northen.
A PROSPEROUS FARMER.
It was in* 1874 that he took up his
plantation in Hancock county. He was
one of the earliest of the progressive
farmers in Georgia. He believed in im
proved methods and advanced ideas, and
always was anxious to apply them on his
own farm and demonstrate their worth
for the benefit* of his neighbors. Soon
he became an authority on matters of
farming, and he prospered at it. He was
one of the organizers of the Hancock
Farmers’ club. He became vice presi
dent of the State Agricultural society,
and # later was elected its president, serv
ing in that capacity during the years
1886-7 and 1888. Also, he was elected
president of the Young Farmers’ Club
of the Southern States. He believed in
the importation of immigrants of a de
sirable class, and it was largely through
Jiis ‘efforts that the colony was founded
which established the present city of
Fitzgerald, county seat of Ben Hill
county.
In 1877 Mr. Northen was elected to
the lower house of the legislature from
Hancock county. He was out one term,
and was then re-elected. In 1880, as a
member of the state convention, he serv
ed upon the committee which investigat
ed the bonds of the Northeastern rail
road. In *884-5 he served in the state
senate, and as chairman of the com
mittee on education in that body he
was able to render splendid service to
the schools of the state. Many im
provements that have been made during
the last generation in Georgia’s schools

by Mr. Northen.
CAREER AS LEGISLATOR.
His career as a legislator was marked
by his ardent support of prohibition
measures. He was the author of the old
local option law which the present pro
hibition law supplanted.
In 1890 he was nominated without
opposition in the convention, for gov
ernor, and on November 8 of that year
he became the thirty-sixth governor of
Georgia. In 1892 he was re-elected by
a big majority over W r . L. Peek,' the
Populist candidate, and continued in the
office of chief executive until October
27, 1894. During his incumbency as
governor, the Georgia Normal and In
dustrial college at Milledgeville and the
Normal school at Athens were estab
lished, the latter’s creation having been
due largely to his efforts, also an indus
trial college for negroes was established
in Savannah. Much of the best work
of Governor Northen’s life was directed
toward the betterment of conditions
among the negroes in Georgia. He mani
fested a clear perception of the race
problem, and was regarded throughout
the country as voicing the sentiment of
the ruling class in the south with re
gard to it.

connection with the rescue work al
ready done. A boy pitched by his mother
from a roof to a boatman, who was hav
ing difficulty keeping his craft steady,
was missed by the rescuers and drown
ed. The mother was saved. A young
husband had to restrain his wife from
throwing herself into the flood waters
as they sat upon the roof of their ruined
home. She was holding two children.
All were saved.
FLAMES LEAP HIGH.
Snow added to terrors of the elements
today. Hundreds of refugees are being
taken out of the Hickory Street school.
The w r eather is bitter cold, adding to
the suffering of those who have been
trapped on the top of their homes since
the levees broke. Fire is sweeping al
most the. entire downtown district of
the city.
The flames are leaping hundreds of
feet into the air. The conflagration has
destroyed several blocks in the very
heart of the business section, as indi
cated from observations taken early
from the roof of the National Cash Reg
ister building.
TEMPORARY MORGUE. <
It is reported that a temporary
morgue has Been established at Fifth
and Eagle streets. As it Is impossible
for the many grief-stricken men and
women to rqach this point the suspense
at the National Cash Register company,
where hundreds of homeless are being
housed, is intense.
Dayton to Be Dynamited
To Stop Flame Ravages
(By Associated Press.)
DAYTON, O., March 27.—Believing
the city to be doomed by the fire, it
was reported this morning that vice
Mayoj* Huber of this city, has sent
out appeals to all the cities of the state
for dynamite with which to raze build
ings in the path of the flames when
ever this can be accomplished and also
for all of the fire fighting apparatus
that can be rushed here.
A small portion of Dayton’s citizens
today, from their refuge on the highest
point in the city, awaited anxiously to
learn of the fate of at least 65,000 of
the city’s inhabitants hemmed ^n by
raging flood water and menaced by fire.
Although only a little more than a
mile from the section where it is fear
ed there has been great loss of life,
hundreds of willing men and women
looked on helplessly.
Even during the early hours of the
third day of flood, any estimate of the
number who have perished would be
mere guesswork.
Thousands have been marooned. How
many have survived no one knows.
ALL NIGHT FIRE.
Numerous fires have sprung up since
the water from a bursted reservoir
penned in tens of thousands but the
worst blaze started yesterday afternoun
about 4:30 o’clock and this morning
still was claiming its toll of property
and doubtless many lives.
LARGEST RESERVOIR IN
WORLD HURLS BIG FLOOD
AGAINST FORT WAYNE
((Continued from Page 1.)
weakening rapidly and Lewiston people
were fleeing from their homes for
high ground.
WILL BE WORSE THAN EVER.
Lewiston is 70 miles from Dayton,
but it is predicted here that if the res
ervoir there gives way a worse flood
than has overwhelmed the city will
sweep down upon the inhabitants now
fighting for life. Should this catastro
phe come before the water now hem
ming in thousands subsides enough to
allow boats to get to the stricken peo
ple, it is predicted that it will be im
possible to reach them for days.
Most of them have been submitted to
a cold, penetrating wind, driving rain
before it, since Tuesday noon. Early
today there was snow and a decided
drop in the temperature.
LOOTER PUT TO DEATH.
The city was proclaimed under mar
tial law yesterday afternoon and late
last night. A thief was caught rob
bing homes of flood victims who had
been taken to refuge stations. He was
shot to death by state guardsmen
doing police duty.
Persons taken from flooded homes
have been well cared for.
Although all grocery stores outside the
flooded area sold out their stocks yes
terday afternoon, food soon was sup
plied from nearby towns, and today
Dayton waits to succor its unfortunate
and care for its dead.
WILL DYNAMITE BUILDINGS.
Fearing that even should the flood
subside enough fo allow men and teams
to make their way to the fire they would
prove ineffectual to combat such a con
flagration as seems to be raging, Vice
Mayor Huber early this morning called
upon nearby towns for fire-fighting ap
paratus and dynamite with which to
blow up the buildings surrounding the
fire.
Unlike other cities heretofore over
whelmed by fire or flood, Dayton has no
representative citizens’ committee to re
lieve victims of the flood and fire that
have swept this city. It is impossible
to communicate with the mayor or other
city officials, as they, with more than
half of the population of 150,000, are
hemmed in by the vater.
The relief work is being well done
by a small coterie of citizens in the
southeastern portion of the city who
happened not to be caught in the busi
ness section when the flood suddenly
made egress from buildings impossi
ble.
PATTERSON DIRECTS RELIEF.
The relief work is in charge of J. H.
Patterson, president of the National
Cash Register' company.
The cash register plant was the only
structure of importance not seriously
affected by the flood or the fire which
followed, and today more than a thou
sand refugees are receiving medical
attention .and food at the plant which
has been turned into a huge hospital
and lodging house.
Until today relief measures exceeded
requireme*hts, but only because it was
impossible to rescue the thousands of
marooned inhabitants. With the waters
receding and the rapidity of the torrents
through the business sections lessened,
people were brought out by hundreds
today and the relief staff was kept busy.
Many doctors and nurses have come
here from nearby towns and medical
supplies have preceded, food on relief
trains.
Absence of power boats has been the
cause of great suffering. Hand-propelled
boats could not navigate the water. With
appeals for motor boats, also went re
quests for men to run them. Cleveland
responded with several boats and men
who arrived this morning. Cincinnati
also sent some. Upon the arrival of
these craft, rescue work went on rap
idly.
CHILD THROWN FROM ROOF.
Harrowing tales have been told In
When the full account is made, it is
believed that the total death list for the
state will run well over 2,000 and that
the property damage will amount to
$100,000,000.
, Dayton is the worst afflicted of the
many cities swept by the floods. Not
only has the death loss from drowning
there been extremely heavy, but fire
which raged unchecked early this morn
ing, threatened to destroy the business
section.
George F. Burba, private secretary to
Governor Cox, made a hazardous trip
to Dayton and last niglit reported that
the property loss would amount to $50,-
000,000, and that the deaths Would ap
proximate 1,000.

I Can Make Your Fat
Vanish by the Gallon!
I CONQUERED OBESITY PAST MIDDLE-AGE
I Ate Everything I Liked—Went
Through No Exercise—Wore
No Special Clothing—Took
No Weakening Baths!
I Explain My Simple, Speedy Home
Treatment to You—FREE!
I, Lucile Kimball, a married woman past middle-age,
attacked by obesity for years, finally conquered the
fat monster. Everything you ever tried, I tried. I
went through exercises, rolled on the floor, cut down
my food, gave up sweets, fats and starches, wore
elastic clothing, tried electricity, massage, osteopathy,
vibration, hot and vapor baths, swalloWedjpellets, cap
sules and teas—gained as rapidly as I lost—and
so would yon with those so-called treatments.
For years, my friends have asked me to tell them how I
got rid of fat and kept rid of it. They know that I eat what
I want—go through no exercise other than I get around the
house and office; that I am FREE from obesity, happy, healthy,
supple—and look younger by fifteen years than I actually am!
I was afraid that my Home Treatment might prove tem
porary. I waited months. My fat did not return, and I
waited years, but my fat did not come back. Still, I post
poned. I tried my Home Obesity Treatment on friends. They
were equally benefited—men and women of all ages. And finally
I decided to reduce the obesity of fat men and women all over
the world. |(
You have figured fat by the pound. Your methods” and
“treatments” have attacked living tissues more than fat. What
did you gain? Nothing! Your fat came back the moment you
stopped your exercise or diet. It did not go if you tried anything
else. But my Home Treatment is not exercise or diet. I say
“diet” in its broadest sense—not “starvation diet,” not “excessive
diet,” but diet of any kind.
Eat any kind of meat, vegetables, salads, pastry, fish, fowl, nuts,
candy that you want—when you want it. Drink what you want—
when you want it. I don’t interfere with your food or drink. No
bending over, rolling,playing golf,horseback riding, doing exercise
of any kind. Sit in your chair at home, or in your, chair at your
office—and the fat will vanish from you by the pint, quart and
_ allon. It goes away rapidly. It melts from your cells. You feel
'better—stronger. Beauty returns to women; strength to men.
You never heard of anything of the kind before in your life. Every
body says, “How wonderful!” Itis marvelous beyond description, j
and it is absolutely harmless. It is so Bimple, you need devote j
only three or four minutes each twenty-four hours to its use.
You Must Not. Send Any Money!
Above all else, if you want this Home Obesity Treatment
of mine, write at once. But—don’t send a penny. I will
return it. I want to tell you what this Home Obesity
\ Treatment is, how it works. I want yon to be able to
use It In your own home or boarding house—on the train
—visiting—anywhere. Nobody knows you use it. You
never are asked to write a testimonial. I am a home-body,
opposed to the work of charlatans. I know that you will
appreciate the sincerity of my message, and send today for
this FREE. I know your name and address will be among I
the first to reach me. \ pledge secrecy and my personal attention- |
Don’t wait. Get rid of FAT now and for all time. If you are
slightly fat, if you are moderately obese, if you are very fat, if
you have double-chin or localized obesity in any part of your body.
Don’t let fat get a stronger grip on you. Stop being the butt of
ridicule. Get this NOW—FREE,

FEAR SUPPLIES ARE LOST.
At noon today war department officials
had not been advised of the arrival of
any supplies or equipment dispatched
to the flooded area yesterday. With
transportation facilities between Day-
ton and the east at a standstill it was
thought that the equipment shipped
from St. Louis would be first to reach
the scenq of distress. Major General
Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the
army, wired railroad officials to get the
army supplies through with all haste.
Yesterday’s ration order from the war
department authorizes agents of the
quartermaster corps to buy supplies in
the open market as near the flood area
as possible, but relief workers will be
greatly handicapped by delay in the ar
rival of the army equipment and tents.

Write for Book. A Fair Customer, Seeled
I care fn my possession a prescription for
nervous debility, lack of vigor, weakened man
hood, failing memory aud lam^* back, brought
on by excesses, unnatural drains, or the fol
lies of youth, that has cured so many worn
aud nervous men right In their own homes—
without any additional help or medicine—that
I think every man who wishes to regain his
manly power aud virility, quickly and quietly,
should have a copy. So I have determined to
send a copy of the preparation free of charge,
in a plain, ordinary sealed envelope, to any
man who will write us for It.
This prescription comes from a physician who
has made a ^special study of men, and I am
convinced it Is the surest-acting combination
for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor
failure ever put together.
I think I ow© it to my felJowmau to send
them a copy in confidence so that any man
anywhere who Is weak and discouraged with
repeated failures may stop drugging himself
with harmful patent medicines, secure what I
jelieve la the quickest acting restorative, ur»
ouilding, SPOT-TOUCHING remedy ever de
vised, and so cure himself at home quietlj
and quickly. Just drop me a line like this,
Dr. A. K. Robinson, 3771 Luck Building. De
troit, Mich., and I will send you a copy o(
this splendid recipe In a plain ordinary en
velope, free of charge. A great many doctor*
would charge $3.00 to $5.00 for merely writing
out a prescription like this—but I 6end it an-
tiralr free. — (
