Baby Grace Mayfield, killed by a trol ley ear near the Federal prison, will be buried this*afternoon, but her mother will not be able to follow the little white hearse to the cemetery. She rose from her bed in Grady hospital when she heard of her baby.’s death, and went home to clasp tiny body in her arms, but after this she collapsed. Baby Grace, the three-year-old child of Mr. and Mrs. D. L. Mayfield, who live near the prison, tried to follow an elder sister across the trolley car track near the prison. Her sister did not see the baby, nor did the motorman. W. J. Vurce. notice the child in time to slop his car. The wheels struck her and killed her instantly. Mrs. Mayfield was slowly recovering from an operation at Grady hospital. When the news of her baby’s death was broken to her she pleaded piteously that she might go home, and the hospital authorities permitted her to leave, send ing her home in an ambulance. She was so broken by the shock and the journey home that she will not be able to rise from her bed again for several weeks. DRUID HILLS M?E. CHURCH OPENS; OLD BELL HEARD AGAIN The new Druid Hills Methodist church was opened yesterday morning at 11 o clock, and the dhurch today was pronounced one of the most beautiful edifices in the city. After many months of silence, old Trinity Methodist church’s bell pealed forth in its familiar tones a call to services yesterday morning. But the call was not to Trinity church. That old structure is being torn away. The Druid Hills church has the old bell of Trinity church, the bell being one of the few things left undisturbed when Sherman passed through Atlanta In 1864. Bishop Warren A. Candler delivered the opening sermon. His text was: "I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.” Dr. W. P. Lovejoy, presiding elder of the Atlanta district; Dr. W. C. Lovett, editor of The Wesleyan Chris tian Advocate; Dr. John S. Jenkins and Rev. H. J. Ellis were other ministers present. A special program was rendered by the choir, with the accompaniments played on the pipe or gan to the purchase of which Andrew Carnegie contributed. The new church is at the corner of Seminole and Blue Ridge avenues. a wonderful stomach, liver and bowel cleanser, regulator and tonic, the safest and most positive ever devised. The day of violent purgatives, such as calomel, pills, salts and castor oil, is past. They were all wrong. You got relief, but at what a cost! They acted by flooding the bowels with fluids, but these fluids were digestive juices. Syrup of Figs embodies only harmless laxa tives, which act in a natural way. It does what right food would do—what eating lots of fruit and what plenty of exercise will do for the liver, stomach and bowels. Be sure you get the old reliable and genuine. Ask your druggist for the full name. "Syrup of Figs anad Elixir of Senna,” pt epared by The California Fig Syrup Company.
