S Brown’s two successful campaigns for B governor, and an ardent advocate of 1 Woodrow Wilson in the presidential primary campaign In Georgia, speelfl- t cully denies that he entertains guber- I natorial ambition now. or that he en- ■' terlained it prior to the overthrow of 1 the Wilson boats in Georgia recently. Mr. .Smith declares that if every vote f in Georgia nad been cast for Wilson he t still would not be a candidate for gov- 1 ernor. He .says he long ago promised 1 his vote to a personal friend, and he would consider it a dishonorable thing to break that word by opposing him With regard to his congressional _ boomlet. so called. Mr Smith admits I that many friends have written and | spoken to him on that subject, and have urg'd him to oppose William Schley Howard. He does not say that I he will not boa candidate against Mr. Howuird; neither does lie say that he will be He merely corroborates the story that there are friends actively advocating him for that office. The Atlanta man does not object to having his political fortunes discussed by friend or foe. so long as the facts are kept straight, but he does object to the Insinuation in some quarters that he has trailed his former Joe Brown views for a now let of Hoke Smith views. In order that he might obtain some office in supporting Woodrow Wilson. Mr. Smith says he followed bls firm conviction of the right—that he was for Woodrow Wilson, and had so announced publicly, long before Un derwood'.' name was mentioned In Georgia Mr. Smith says that when he tin" get ready to plunge politically, every body will b* given ample and sufficient notice.

Smith, he was known to harbor decided ambition in that direction. Mr Tram mell's father was the chairman of the state's first railroad commission, and was one of the most acceptable and ef ficient commissioners Georgia . ver had. He started the great work that .sub sequent commissioners have endeav ored. with varying degrees of success, to carry forward. Paul Trammell admits that he de sires nothing so much as to link his name perpetually with the honorable body his father helped bring into ex istence-and it is conceded, moreover, that he Is amply qualified for the work. If he is to have opposition, it is not yet apparent. FRIDAY==TWO DAYS SALE==SATURDAY Special Prices [ |)QPCII coops"]!

S. the most extensively used of all medicines in the treat ment of Contagious Blood Poison. Unlike the strong mineral mixtures, which temporarily remove the outward symptoms and shut the disease up in the system, there to carry on its destructive work on the delicate and vital organs, S. S. S. strikes directly at the root, and by purifying the blood of every trace of the virus, completely and permanently cures the trouble. 8. S. 8. is Nature’s blood purifier, harmless in its action and certain in its good results. It is made from a combination of roots and herbs, each of which has a definite and specific action in purifying the blood. Years were spent in selecting and proportioning the different ingredients, but when 8. S. S. was perfected it soon demonstrated its superiority over all other blood medicines, and now, after 40 years, it is still the one and only certain cure for Contagious Blood Poison. While driving out the poison from the circulation S. S. S. builds up and strengthens the system by its fine vegetable tonic effects. If you are suffering with Contagious Blood Poison S. 8. S. is your most certain reliance, and because of its freedom from meicury, potash or any other mineral, it is absolutely safe for every one.
