houses. This bill proposes to amend
the anti-pass law to permit these offi
cers to accept free transportation only
when on official business. A committee
of the sheriffs called on Governor Hoke
Smith, who Informed them he was op
posed to any measure that would grant
annual or quarterly paasea, but could

official duties.
The sheriffs met In room 121 of the

The Minnesota Mans Journey
W HEN a man appreciates my treatment enough to -go out
of his way to pay me a visit and tell me so, I feel
that my efforts have not been in vain. It was like this with the
Minnesota man. Altho I had treated him
about a year ago, and had considerable corre
spondence with him, I had never seen him
until one day last week, when he dropped in
my office and .introduced himself. He said
he had some business which called him to
Florida and, altho Atlanta was somewhat out
of his way, he determined to pay me a visit
while in the South and thank me for
what I had done. Then, too, he asked me to
examine Tlim again. I found a condition
which could be remedied at his home as well
as in Atlanta, but he insisted that I should
attend to this, and he agreed to remain here
for a week in order that I might remedy
this condition. When he first wrote to me
he was suffering from nervous debility and,
according to his letters, he was in bad shape.

was not necessary. Now he goes out of his way to gee me,
thank me and have me do something for him which he could
have done at home in Minnesota. I have always tried to have
Patients satisfied with treatment they receive from me. I did
for the Minnesota man what I do for all my patients—give
them careful, conscientious and scientific treatment. Before
having dealings with me, he had been faked and imposed upon.
I have been trying to show for years that a physician may ad

treat diseases in which he specializes. Those who have placed
confidence in me say I have succeeded. I KNO\S diseases of

The abolition of the fee system In
Fulton county has been agitated for
years, but It ws* only last suftimer that
the people were given an opportunity
to vote on It. The vote then was 6,773
against fees and 1.128 for continuing
the system. Ten years ago a grand
jury made an Investigation and report
ed that fees paid officials above a rea
sonable allowance for office expenses
amounted to 340,000 a year. Since that
time the fees have Increased with the
growth of Fulton county and the In
crease of litigation.
Charles I. Branan, a member of the
county executive committee, has been
advocating this change for years and
he was appointed to represent the com
mittee in preparing euch a bill to be
presented to the legislature and to as
sist In securing its passage.
Twelve grand Juries and one board
of county commissioners have recom
mended that the fee system be abol
ished, and It now seems In a fair way
of accomplishment.
