With the opening of ex-Governor

J. R. Smith’s Statement.
“Oovernor Brown's candidacy Is In
response to a can from thousands of
cJtlxens. representing every walk of
Ilfs, regardless of previous political af
filiation.
.’Those non-partisan calls have come
spontaneously as a recognition of Gov
ernor Brown's conservative and con
structive administration,
•* "It Is my purpose, desire and Inten
tion 'to* pitch the campaign upon a high
plane and keep It there, with the sin
cere hope that its results will be bene
ficial, rather than detrimental/ to the
interests of this state.
"If it Is to be a rnud-sllnglng contest
Lwish to assure our friends, the oppo
sition, In advance, that they shall have
a complete monopoly.
"The trend of the American political
thought Is to bring the government
closer to the people. This is sound,
wholesome, democratic doctrine. I can
conceive of no principle higher than
that the people shall rule.
"Upon the right of franchise, the
right of Independent thought expressed
at the hnllot box, depends the safety
of society and our Institutions.
"I desire to assure the thousands of
Governor Brown's friends throughout
the state, who have volunteered their
aid and support In his candidacy, that
I shall give them my heartiest co-oper-
atlon and request that a complete list
| of officers of the various clubs in coun
ties, efttes and districts, be furnished
as early as possible.
Governor Brown’s candidacy Is In
splendid shape, and thru the aid of his
friends throughout the state, as as
sured, there can be no doubt as to Its
success."

for the establishment here of an aero
plane factory, a school of aviation and
a traveling station for aviators.
The enterprise and wealth of Atlanta,
according to Mr. Hopkins, should make
an aeroplane factory In or near the
city a practical Investment, and the
atmospheric conditions of the sections
would be'edvnntageous for an aviation
school and training station. In fact,
Mr. Hopkins believes that the air con
ditions here will permit an aviator In
(he near future to add several thousand
feet to Lincoln Ilrachy's American al
titude record and to the foreign record
of over 13,000 feet.

.. veteran praising General Leon A.
Matlle. of Washlngron, said:
’’Matlle was a quick Judge of men. I
remember Just before tne battle of At
lanta, a visitor presented his son to
him. The son was a gawky, overgrown
slouch of a lad, but the father, proudllke,
said to Matlle: .
” ’Well, what do you think of my boy?'
The boy, his eyes half closed, leaned

T HERE is more than ordinary interest in the cases of the
three lame men. So that’s why I am going to tell about
them. A few days ago I told about “The Man With a Crip
pled Knee,” anil in addition to many letters
I have received regarding thin case, I have
had calls from two men similarly affected. I
could not blame these, two men for thinking
their trouble was esused by something similar
to the itinn I told about. Hut, as a matter of
fact, while each man was lame, the causes for
this were different in each case. The first
man's condition was the result of a nervous
disorder which drew his leg up. He improved
rapidly under treatment, and in a few months
could put his foot on the ground and walk
without crutches. The second man, however,
while lame in the same way, had to be treated
differently. Here is where the importance of
diagnosis comes in, for the cause of his trouble
war an affection of the bone and tissues sur
rounding the bone. The treatment I gave the
first man would not do for the second man, notwithstanding
the fact that both were crippled alike. The third lame man I
ilid not feel justified in treating, and frankly told him he would
be better off under home treatment by his family physician. I
was in a position to give this third man some good advice,
which I cheerfully did, and I firmly believe he will get well,
if the line of hygiene Bnd treatment I mapped out is followed,
These three cases illustrate why I have been successful. They
show that success can not he obtained without correct diagno
sis. Success comes from finding out what CAUSES the trou
ble—getting at the actual condition and knowing the exact path,
ological condition which underlies the symptoms. For more
than a third of a century I have been studying and specializing
in diseases of men. nervous disorders and chronic diseases.
That’s why I KNOW them and why I say I can cure any case
which CAN he cured. My office hours are 8 to 7; Sundays and
holidays. 10 to 1. My monographs are free by mail in plain,
