HOW YOU CAN SAVE
PLUMBERS' BILLS
Some Rules for Household
ers Which May Prevent
Freezing Pipes.
Catarrh
Invites Consumption
It weakens the delicate long tissues,
deranges the digestive organs, and
breaks down the general health.
It often causes neAdache and dizzi
ness, impairs the taste, smell and
hearing, and affects the voice.
Being a constitutional disease it re
quires a constitutional remedy.

With the coming of the cold weather
Is ushered In that annual and Inevita
ble problem, “Sow am I to keep the
pipes from bursting?”
One way, of course, would be not to
have any pipes, or to have Ice-proof
pipes, but how to do without the one
or to get the other are problem* which
are about as Intricate to solve as the
original real thing.
The Georgian thought It would be a
good plan to get a statement from a
reputable plumber as to what pre
cautionary steps should be taken to
prevent the bursting of pipes during
freezing weather, and then the thought
came that possibly such a statement
would be business suicide on the
plumber’s part. This was dispelled,
however.
“If there Is any money we want less
than any other money,” stated A. F.
Belllngrath. president of the Bellln
grath Plumbing Company, "It Is this
•freeze money.’
“In the first place, you hardly ever
can convince the average person that
vou are not robbing him when you
present the bill. Three-fourths of the
people whom you fix burst pipes for
believe your men didn't work half the
time, and the other fourth will never
do any more business with you because
your plumbers did not come soon
enough. And hard to collect? My,
my!"
Mr. Belllngrath consented to write
out a list of rules which, he said. It fol
lowed, will, prevent the bursting of
pipes. It might be well to cut these out
and save them for the wintry days.
Mr. Belllngrath's rules follow:
How to Save Money.
"The way to keep water pipes from
freezing Is the most perplexing ques
tion we have to deal with, as many
people wait until the pipes freeze and
then cut ofT the water, or will turn It
on while the weather Is cold and let
the water freeze while In the pipes.
"If the following directions ore care
fully followed there should never he
any hurst pipes, even In zero weather:
"1. Have the pipes laid well under
the ground all the way from the street
to the building line.
’’2. Have a stop and waste cock <a
good one, not a cheap affair) put In
near the property line.
"3. Put in the front or back yard a
standpipe, w|th n stop and waste cock,
with handle extending above tho
ground, to control the water to this
standpipe and not connected with any
other part of the plumbing.
"4. At the bulldlpg line, Just under
the house, have a stop and waste cock
for the cold wator and a drain for the
hot water, with handles extending
through the - floor,. so these stop and
waste cocks can be handled without
going Into the yard.
”5. Have a plumber so arrange all

Just opposite the Candler building in Peach
tree street. Two modern storerooms and
twelve handsomely appointed offices will

“I'm not exactly a prohibitionist,” said
Mr. llaverty Tuesday, *N»nt I do not believe
that prohibition will hurt property values
at all. We are investing onr money and
cnect to get results.
The Maddox Grocery Co.'will occupy one
of the two new storerooms in the remod

oldest In that part of the Hty, but was ao
well built that when remodeled It will be
thoroughly modern.
STRIKERS THINK END
OF STRIKE IS NEAR
Developments In the strike of the com
mercial telegraphers which will permit of
the strikers returning to work are ex
pected by the local strikers not later than
Wednesday night.
Advices have been received In Atlanta by
the officers of the local union from J. Wes
ley Russell, secretary and treasurer of the
national organization, to the effect that he
has bad long distance telephone confer
ences with tho members of the committees
in New York, and what ho said In bis let
ter leads tho local strikers to believe the
end of the strike is near nt hand.
Three committees of three men each from
the strikers of the Postal, Western Union

The article is illustrated with a photo of
