A Poor Waviaijfc To Treat |I|3S GATARRHtftIfc No one would *be so foolish as to kindle the fire on top of a pot to make it boil, yet the treatment of Catarrh is often just as senseless and illogical. Douches, sprays, ointments, so-called tobacco cures, and various other applications, are diligently used, but the little good accomplished is swept away by the first breath of winter. When you attempt to cure a . - constitutional disease —one affecting the entire system with purely local remedies, you are applying the fire to the top the pot, you are doctoring symptoms, and, like thousands of_ ■BIH others, get disappointing results. In Chronic Catarrh, the whole system becomes involved; the entire mucous membrane, or inner covering of the body, is in a state of high inflamma tion. The pressure of blood upon the glands and cells produce excessive secretion of mucus, much of which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body. In this way the stomach, kidneys aud intestines are often seriously affected. The nose, throat and ears are most frequently attacked by this foul disease, because the mucous lining- is exposed to the cold, damp air, which attracts the vitiated blood to the St. Joseph, Mo., March 24, 1901. I had a bad case of Catarrh; my nose was always stopped up and my head ached continually, and the odor of my breath was sickening. I had a most annoying cough, also. I tried a number of remedies and was treated by several doctors, but got no relief—my case was thought to be incurable. S. S. S. being recommended to me, I began its use, and after taking nine bottles was cured, and have never been troubled with Catarrh since. MISS MARY £>. STORM, , 601 Francis Street. Blinding headaches, neuralgia of the eyes and dizziness are also symptoms of this disease, and when the inflammation reaches the delicate mechanism of the ear, hearing is lost, and, as the blood becomes more deeply poisoned, the tissues and soft bones in the head are eaten out, greatly disfiguring the face. At this stage of Catarrh the breath becomes insuffer ably offensive. S. S. S. is the simplest and most effective treatment for Catarrh, and when taken into the circulation reaches all parts of the system and cleanses the blood of all Catarrhal matter and restores it to a normal condition. When rich, new blood begins to flow through the veins, the obstructed glands and broken down cells resume their natural functions, and the hot and inflamed membranes are lubricated and moistened with a soothing, healing fluid that quickly brings relief to the congested parts. S. S. S. puts the blood in such perfect condition and so strengthens and invigorates the general health that the local manifestations of the disease gradually disappear, the dis charge from the nose ceases, the head clears, breathing f becomes easy and natural, the appetite improves, and a perfect and permanent cure is effected. 1 I S. S. S. is the only guaranteed purely vegetable blood J purifier. It contains no minerals to further poison the blood and derange the digestion, but can be taken with perfect safety in all stages and forms of Catarrh.

BROWN WILL NOT RUN. Says He Called* Upon to Decide Be tween Business and Politics De cides in Favor of Former. Miifoii Telegraph. Several weeks ago you were kind enough to allow -me to sav through your columns to my friends that I was a candidate for governor, and at the proper time would go before the people and submit m v views upon the public questions I considered properly at issue. Since then my time has been entirely occupied in the effort to so arrange my private affairs that they might be conducted during my absence in the canvass without sacrifice or material injury. The time con sumed in this has already resulted in injury to myself, politically, and further delay would be dis tinct injustice to my friends. The time has, therefore, arrived for a positive decision. After the nmturest considera tion I have concluded that I can not abandon and sacrifice a busi ness, the foundation of which are the result of twenty-five years of constant labor, and the successful continuance of which will yet re surface, causing congestion of the little blood vessels and glands, making breathing difficult and labored; the throat becomes parched and dry; the hot, watery discharge from the nose gradually changes to a yellowish color and becoming more profuse and tenacious, drops back into the throat, causing gagging and almost constant coughing to dislodge it. This offensive discharge, in spite of all pre cautions, finds its way into the stomach, and extreme nausea and an obstinate form of dyspepsia foUow. THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1902. quire unceasing vigilance. While my ambition and inclination in cline me to enter this race, my sober judgement tells me to let it alone, i am called upon to decide between business and politics, and as I ride over the fields that have been the best friends to me and my fathers before me, i feel that I will make a mistake in turning my hack upon them to seek oven the highest position in the gift of the people. So, I ask the privilege of again addressing my friends through your colums to say that I withdraw from the race for the governorship. To my friends throughout the state who have so generously offered me their loyal and zaelous support, I return my sincere and heartfelt thanks. I fee! that they have greatly honored me beyond mv deserts. I can only hope that the future may hold an opportunity of proving my grateful apprecia tion of their partial kindness. For your own courteous and consider ate treatment upon all occasions, you Will please accept my sincere thanks. J. P. Bkowx. Hawkinsville. Ga.. Jan. 81, 1902 BRIEF SKETCH OF . COL. J. H. ESTILL Distinguished Georgian In Race For Governor. HIS VERY SUCCESSFUL CAREER Beginning at the Bottom Rung, By Close Application, Industry, Intelli gence, Honesty and Frugality, He Has Climbed to the Top. The career of Colonel John Hol brook Estill, of Chatham county, whose candidacy for the governorship of Georgia is attracting so much favora ble attention in all sections of the state, is an inspiration to the youth ot the land having*the courage to “do” and the stamina to "stick.” It is a present and potent illustration of the fact that industry, frugality, intelli gence and honesty will win if consist ently adhered to in all the walks of life, and of the old proverb that “What ever is worth doing is worth doing well.” It is one of the cardinal princi ples of Colonel Estill’s life to do well everything that he undertakes; to go into and master details; to get a firm grasp upon tho small particulars, and thus secure a dependable hold upon the larger matters. No man is more careful to be sure of his footing and none more confident of his ground when he has taken a stand. He does not jump to a conclusion, but arrives there by the conservative process of reasoning, after taking into considera tion all the points of view. That his reasoning is in tlye main always cor rect and his judgment sound could have no better exemplification than in his own fortunes. Beginning at the very bottom rung of the ladder after the war of secession—working as ala / lolnl jffß tjm uj* Ah Pf B|% Stiffjft* HHrP sba*?4%rffiitws3bEtawmtftSSS gill uliumr Hlf TPI Tvjfrj • ' > ’I I''*? rF, ' I t jftl fci. % , borer in the printing establishment which he now owns, and for a labor er’s wages—he has climbed by his own efforts to a position of comfort and im portance. By zeal, by labor, by untir ing energy, by the exercise of mother wit and calm judgment, he has risen from the position of an employed me chanic to that of an employer, finan cier and man of affairs. And notwith standing his altered jiosition, he en joys relating anecdotes of his early struggles as a mechanic more than telliag of his later triumphs. Nor are the friends of his more strenuous days forgotten, as a number of them have reason to know. Once a friend, always a friend, is his style. Colonel Estill is in his sixty-second year, and looks fifteen years younger. He was born in South Carolina, but is a Georgian, blood, bone and brain, hav ing lived in this state since his youth and given the vigor and strength of his manhood to defending the state in war and building up her interests in peace. He takes pride in the fact that he was a private in the Confederate army and fought in the ranks with "the boys in butternut and jeans” un til he was so severely wounded in Vir ginia, where be went with the Eighth Georgia regiment, that he had to he sent home. And while still an invalid from the wound he volunteered to aid in the defense of his beloved city of Savannah against the invading army under Sherman. His military record, as honorable as man could wish, is em balmed in the records of the troops that Georgia sent to uphold the Con federacy and punctuated with the scars of bullets upon his body. His military title, however, is the laurel of peace, bestowed for both military and civic services rendered in patriotic love for the commonwealth. It was first conferred by the lamented Gen eral Alfred H. Colquitt when he was elected governor, in 1878, and after wards reconferred by each succeeding governor up to and including the ad ministration of Hon. W. J. Northen, which ended in 1894. While Colonel Estill has never been a politician in the ordinary meaning of the word, he has always taken a deep interest and often a leading part in the political affairs of Georgia and the south, and his politics has always been of the straight Democratic brand without the slightest qualification. The party has always known where to find him, and the leaders have consulted him with respect to matters of great moment. He has serve 1, among other places, as member for Georgia on the Democratic National committee, as Chairmnn of the executive committee or the First Georgia congressional dis trict and as chairman of the state Democratic, executive committee. His time, his talents Rnd his purse have never been denied to the party when wanted. He has never held an impor tant political office, for the reason that he never sought to do so. Several desirable presidential appointments have been within his grasp if he chose to take them, but in each instance ho declined to accede to the importuni ties of friends and recommended oth ers for the places. While holding aloof from office holding under the national government, he has accepted positions of trust in his home county and city. It is as a business man, however, that Colonel Estill ranks the very great majority of his fellows. When ever and wherever he has served the public—on political national or state committee, on school hoard, on county board, or elsewhere —he has been call ed upon to deal with the business side of the matter under consideration. This is because of his success in the management of his private affairs. Be ginning with the wage of $1 a day in the press room of The Morning News, ne has not only become the proprietor of that property and made it one of the most prosperous publishing establish ments in the south, issuing every day in the year a newspaper that would be a credit to any city in the United States, but he has taken rank among the first as a hank official and financier whose judgment is always accepted as safe when there is doubt among his conferees. As an editor, he commands respect for his thoughtfulness and con servatism. without surrendering con viction. Asa business man, he com mands confidence for his thoroughness and the ability to comprehend a large problem without losing sight of the de tails. It has been said —and no doubt with good reason —that his newspaper and printing establishment is one of COLONEL J. H. ESTILL. the most thoroughly systematized busi nesses in the country. No loose ends are left hanging anyhere. The whole concern moves along like a piece of well oiled machinery. The same ef fort to effect co-operation, and success in that effort, characterizes all of his enterprises. He is at the head of a building and loan corporation that has assisted a great number of wage earn ers to own their homes or lay aside something for a "rainy day.” He is an earnest advocate of living within one’s means, which principle he applies to corporations as well as to individuals. He thinks that no obligation should he contracted without arrangements being made to discharge it; that if a man or a corporation make a debt the means of paying it off should be in sight. Personally Colonel Estill is a teeto taler. No man has a greater abhor rence of the drink habit than he. At the same time he recognizes that ev ery man who takes a drink of liquor is not a drunkard, and that every man who refrains from drinking is not a saint. He believes in temperance, but not in state prohibition, for the rea son that temperance cannot be Incul cated by legislative enactment any more than morality can be forced by means of a policeman’s club. He fa vors local option with respect to the liquor traffic, because experience has taught that no community can be su perior to the majority sentiment there of, and no community can have even a decent semblance of prohibition un less the majority of its people are In favor of the total suppression of the liquor traffic. Under the existing local option law in Georgia, when the ma jority of a community decides against the sale of liquor it is within the pow er of such community to have the traf fic suppressed. Local option is based upon the sound Democratic principle of local self-government, and no sys tem of government has ever been de vised that is more satisfactory than that of permitting the people to de cide for themselves under what code of morals they shall live. He believes that it is always safe to trust the ma jority of a free and enlightened people to do what is right for their own good’. Colonel Estill is Thirty-second de gree Mason and a past Junior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge of Geor gia. He is also one of the oldest mem bers of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows in Georgia. In religion he is an Episcopalian, and is a vestry man of St. John’s church of Savan i*h. W. TROX BANKSTON. CIGARS AND BOXES. Cedar Now So Scarce That Other Woods Arc Used For Cheap Weeds. “Cedar boxes are not used as ex tensively now as they used to be,” said a well known tobacco man, “and the reason for this is clear enough when wc come to think of it. Cedar is not as plentiful now as it once was. Time was when all the cigars shipped from Cuba to this country and cigars of home manufacture were packed in cedar boxes. But this is not the case now. “Cedar, of course, is the best wood in the world for this purpose. It gives a pleasant odor and even a good flavor to the cigar and keeps out the various insects and worms*' that are inclined to burrow into to bacco. Insects will have nothing to do with cedar. The wood is too strong. For this reason boxes made of material of this kind have been of vast value to tho cigar manufac turers. Ido not mean that cedar is not used at all now, for as a matter of fact cedar is extensively used. All cigars of the liner and more costly grade made in this country and elsewhere are packed in cedar boxes. This is one of the require ments of the trade. “But when it comes to the cheap er grades cheaper material is used. It may look like cedar, but it isn’t. It is an imitation. It serves the purpose. The wood does not de tract at all from the brand of cigars packed in this way. They would be no better if packed in boxes gold lined and highly spiced and per fumed. They would smell sweeter; that’s all. Stained poplar and other light woods of sufficient fineness of grain, and even stained oak, are sometimes used for the purpose. But the cedar box is not nearly so numerous, now as in the halcyon, days, and the time may come when this kind of boxes will not be known at all in the tobacco trade, and yet one is inclined to pray that it may not ho so.”—New Orleans Times- Democrat.
