IBK ON GEUISGE PLANTS DRUGGING One at Proctor Creek Nearly Completed—Two Others Are Far Behind Schedule. . OnP of Atlanta’s sewage disposal that at Proctor creek, is virtu ■i’iv completed, but the other two, the p ( !( htree and Intrenchment creek, will i„ finished in anything like the originally expected. The inspec \ , . ir ty, under the direction of Cap r M. Clayton, chief of construc " . obtained definite information as J', thr . progress of these plants on an ~b.,rvation tour of work in the’city aEI ; county being done under the di rection of Captain Clayton. Chester A. Dady, of New York, has the contract for the building of the p, ichtrce and Intrenchment creek plants and he has been warned again ', n j again that the work was not pro gressing rapidly enough. What is to |,e finally done will be decided by coun cil. . sewage from all the southwest er,, section of the city will be turned )l; . ~ the Proctor creek plant within the rew few days, giving far better sani advantages to all that section. Tl nigh it will be more than a year bcibre th, other plants are completed, tli intercepting sewttfs are being con necter! up and the city's waste matter carried several miles further away be fnr, i: is turned into open streams. Several miles of Peachtree creek has already boon purified by this means and the department will soon be able to handl' Intrenchment creek in the same way. Two of the most interesting pieces of woik now under way are two tremend ous sewers, a fourteen foot sewer which extends for about 2,500 feet on the Pidor line to the Proctor creek plant and a fifteen foot sewer which extends from the junction of the Butler street and Highland avenue sewers to Pied mont park. These huge sewers are being built by the county convicts. f M. Rich & Bros. Co. ] S: £ ■ iBBIfw J ■ 3 : j fl® SALE OF EXQUISITE I x ?

M’NAUGHTON SWAINSBORO, GA., July 24. —With the prison commission and the gov ernor will soon rest the fate of Dr. W. J. McNaughton, the physician now un der sentence of death for the alleged poisoning of Fred Flanders, a prom inent farmer of Emanuel county. F. H. Stafford, McNaughton's attorney, has announced that he will not take the case to the United States supreme court, as was reported a few days ago. Mr. Safford has posted notice at the court house that he will appeal to the prison board. Mr. Safford says that he has exhausted every means to get a rehearing and that lie does not care to carry the case up unless he him self felt that he had sufficient grounds, all the courts having denied the many attempts to have the verdict set aside. It is probable that Judge B. T. Raw lings will resentence Dr. McNaughton on July 30, though he has not made the definite announcement. courtTdjOurnsTn PETITION OF FARMERS GREENSBORO, GA., July 24.—The July term of the Greene superior court, which was scheduled to convene here this week, was adjourned until the first Monday in October by Judge James B.

ISN'T HOT! ONLY FEELS THAT W Atlanta’s Temperature Far Be low That of Many Cities of the ‘"Cool” North. Do you want to feel cool, even today when the mercury Is boiling and siz zling around 95 degrees on the streets, the record heat for Atlanta this sum mer? All you have to do Is to visit the local weather bureau and look over a table of temperatures which the weather man has "doped” out for about fifteen of the principal cities of the United States. The local weather man is an optimist If nothing else. When all Atlanta fumed and fretted yesterday and when several horses and mules fell prostrate from the heat, Forecaster VonHerr mann was preparing a table that showed that since July. 1 Atlanta has had almost continually a temperature of from 10 to 15 degrees below that of other cities. The list Includes Boston, New York. Washington, Memphis, St. Louis, Charleston and even Montreal, Canada. The record temperature of the local season was reached yesterday when the official thermometer registered 91 de grees about 3 o'clock In the afternoon. The thermometer is on top of a four teen-story building. Down on the streets jhe mercury sailed up as high as 94 degrees. Today bids fair to break that record. For at least two days longer this weather will continue, and even the nights will be Just as hot as the last two, when the maximum temperature between sunset and sunrise was 74 de grees. "Atlanta people are lucky to get as cool weather as they have had," says Mr. VonHerrmann, "and they feel the heat more because they have had ,such remarkably cool temperatures this summer.” FREE LUNCHES OUTLAWED.

I Lillian Russell’s Warning. Sore Feet; Bad Health Lillian Russell is a physical wonder. Now. In mature years, but having pre served the fresh beauty of youth. In the Chicago Tribune she says: "Care of the feet, hardest worked members of the body, is abso lutely essential to health. Irritation from sore feet oft en causes serious nervous disorders, and nothing brings face wrinkles quicker.” Here is the best treatment known to science for all foot ail- H ments. It works through the pores and removes the cause. ‘‘Dissolve two table spoonfuls of Calocide compound in a basin of warm water. Soak the feet in this for full fifteen minutes, gently rubbing the sore parts.” The effect is magical. All soreness disappears Instantly. Corns and callouses can be peeled right off It gives instant relief for bunions, aching and sweaty, smelly feet. Any druggist has Calocide in stock or will quickly get it from his wholesale house. A twenty five cent box usually cures the worst feet. Calocide is not a patent medicine. Don’t waste money on uncertain remedies. Insist on getting what you want from the druggist.
