ORDER FOR SIDEWALKS
STIRS UPJHE CITIZENS
Streets Committee Split Over
Requirements—Gordon-st.
Folk Are Indignant.
The itreetw committee of council met
Friday aftenio'on and heard vigorous
argumenta an to how certain sidewalks
should be paved. *The committee had
already agreed upon Atlanta-ave., but
when the arguments had ended the
members disagreed among themselves
and a minority report will be sent to
council.
Press Huddleston and Dr. Claude
Smith appealed to the streets commit
tee to rescind its order for a tile side
walk In Atlanta-ave. The part In ques
tion Is between Pulliam and Waahlng-
ton-sts., and Mr. Huddleston and Dr.
Smith own all the property fronting
one side of It. Mr. Huddleston and Dr.
Smith think brick Is sufficient, because
all the streets in that neighborhood are
paved with brick and brick Is cheaper.
The neighbors want tlte.
After quite a discussion. Councllmen
Chambers. Humphrey, Harrison, Baskin
and Vaughan voted for brick paving
Councllmen Hatcher. Sisson and Aider-
man Ragsdale voted for tile, and Mr.
Hatcher, who Is chairman of the com
mittee, says that he will make a mi
nority report to council
Out In West End there Is dissatisfac
tion also. Alderman Spratllng and
Councllmen Dent and Andrews, of that
ward, had passed an ordinance In council
providing for tile sidewalks In Gordon,
Peeples, Park, Ashby and Lee-sts.
There has been a continuous buss of
Indignation since the notices were first
sent out among some of the property
owners.
One property owner In Gordon-st.
says the brick sidewalk In front of his
property Is perfectly good and that
council haa no right to condemn It. He
says the supreme court has ruled that
the city can not lawfully do such an act
and that before he will submit to the
assessment he will take his case to the
sme court.
i the other hand, It Is said that the
women of that neighborhood urged
members of the streets committee, who
went out to Inspect the sidewalks, t<
condemn them all and require tile sldc<
walks.
It Is not that Atlantans object to In*
provements and progress that the side,
walks cause so much trouble. It Is be
cause everywhere a tile sidewalk Is put
down It costs the property owner about
$1 per front foot, when often he has a
satisfactory walk already laid.
FOR SCROFULA
nature's perfect cure
• mm* mm*
Swollen glands about the neck, weak eyes, running sores and ab
scesses, pale, waxy complexions and frail, poorly developed systems,
are the most usual ways in which Scrofula is manifested. In some
cases the blood is so filled with the scrofulous germs that from birth the
disease shows its presence. In other cases it is held in check during
young, vigorous life, but when the system begins to weaken, especially
after a spell of sickness, the disease will often manifest itself in some
form. S.S.S. is Nature’s perfect cure for Scrofula, made entirely of
healthful roots, herbs and'barks, a perfectly safe medicine for young
or old. S.S.S. goes into the circulation, and drives out all scrofulous
matter, and supplies the blood with (he healthful qualities it is in need of.
In this way it builds up weak, delicate persons and makes them strong
and healthy. Book on the Blood and medical advice free. S.S.S. is for
sale at drug stores. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.

Newbro’s Herpicide Will
Do It.
Did you ever try to discover a reason
for the dying of a valuable plant? You
perhaps found that life was destroyed
by some Insect or parasite working
about the roots and tapping away the
elements whlrh go to support plant life.
The dandruff germ exercises the
same destructive Influence upon the life
of the hair. It force* Ita way down, the
follicle around the hair bulb and thus
prevents the hair from getting proper
nourishment. The hair dies and drops
out.
Newbro’s Herpicide prevents this by
killing the germ. It also frees the scalp
from the accumulations of dirt and
scarf skin. With the removal of three
obstacles to a clean, healthy scalp, the
hair will grow naturally and luxu
riantly.
