Yaars ago it was commonly advised

The ordinary conditions of life In an

Dr. Abercrombie Praises
Methods Os Europeans
An unusual honor has come to Geor
gla in the choosing of Dr. Thos. F
Abercrombie to go to the Hague at
a delegate from the United States to
a world conference on preventive
medicine. Dr. Abercrombie has just
returned after an absence of 2 months
at the conference. He toured Den
mark, Holland and England with a
committee of physicians. It is perfect
ly natural that our Commissioner ol
; Health found many things worthy ol
emulation, but on the whole Is well
'satisfied with the work done in out
country. He brings back many new
Ideas of the best minds and foremost
thought of the world, and we expect
to see him put the good into effect;
this, of course, will be dependent on
and circumscribed by the appropria
tion given him.
Dr. Abercrombie speaks In the high
est praise of the methods of Europe

Information gained will be put to good
use in our enlarged Tuberculosis San
atorium as soon as It is built.
Every one must rejoice that Geor
gia was given this splendid opportu
nity, and we are delighted to have
our Commissioner of Health back at
the Capitol.
Season For Typhoid Is Here
The season of the year for Typhoid
Is here—from now on until Christmas
we will have our share. It comes from
Improper care of human excretions,
mostly the bowel movement. Sanitary
privies would largely control this dis
ease as well as other Intestinal trou
bles. It is carried by one who Is
what Is termed a chronic carrier. That
Is. one who continuously throws off the
germ that causes the fever. Food and
water become contaminated. The fly
does its part. Milk Is one of the most
common sources of contamination.
There are two measures against this
poison easy of execution and not ex
pensive—sanitary closets and vacci
nation.
The crowded condition of the Tuber
culosis Sanatorium at Alto Is deplor
able. Many patients are losing valu
able time waiting for admission. The
money for the new building Is coming

right place. We believe that he Is
now doing the best work ever done at
this most excellent institution. We
sincerely' hone that the now building
will be rapidly pushed to a conclusion

GET AT THE CAUSE
MANY LAFAYETTE FOLKS ARE
SHOWING HOW TO AVOID
NEEDLESS SUFFERING
There’s nothing more annoying
than kidney weakness or inability to
properly control the kidney secretions.
Night and day alike, the sufferer is
tormented and with the burning
and scalding the attendant backache,
headache and dizziness, life is indeed
a burden. Doan’s Pills—a stimulant
diuretic to the kidneys, have brought
peace and comfort to many LaFay
ette people. Profit by this LaFayette
resident’s experience:
A. E. Chapman, proprietor general
store, Culberson Avenue, says: “My
kidneys acted so often I had to get up
several times at night to pass the se
cretions, which contained a brick-dust
sediment. Knife-like pains also dart
ed across the small of my back when
ever I stooped and it was a task to
straighten. I read about Doan’s Pills
in the paper and made up my mind
to try them. Two boxes cured me en
tirely.”
Mr. Chapman is only one of many
LaFayette People who have grate
fully endorsed Doan’s Pills. If your
back aches—if your kidneys bother
you, don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—ask distinctly for Doan’s
Pills, the same that Mr. Chapman had
—the remedy backed by home testi
mony. 60 cents at all dealers—Foster
