it brought about good results in a num

Madison Lake, Minn.
■'Gentlemen: In Recember. 1908, and
March, 1909. I was taken with hemor
rhages of the lungs which confined me
several weeks, each time to my bed.
These left me very weak and I coughed
at nights and could not sleep. My ap
petite also failed me. My doctor advised
me to go West. So. in September, 1909,
I planned to go, but I had four more
hemorrhages, which put me in bed for
three weeks.
"In November 1 started for Denver,
Colo. After my arrival I met Michael
Brody, who. upon learning of my condi
tion. urged me to take Eckman's Alter
ative In about two months I began to
fee! better. I kept on taking the medi
cine and improved fast. In March. 1910,
1 returned home. I think I am entirely
well, have a good appetite and sleep
well When I left Denver my weight was
130 pounds. I now' weigh 165, my normal
weight. I thank God and your Altera
tive for my health. If I can help any
other person suffering from Tuberculosis
1 will gladly do so.”

TERRAPIN HATCH IN GRIP
SAVANNAH. GA., Sept. 11.—Alex
ander M. Bai bee, the terrapin expert,
operator of one of thewnost unique in
dustries in the United States, is going
North next montlj with a satchel with
the most novel exhibit ever carried out
of Savannah. He is going to New York
and other cities to show his friends
how the diamond back delicacies are
hatched from eggs.
I he satchel to be used for this pur
pose is in the form of a suit case, with
specially built compartments. One of
them will contain a full grown terra
pin—the kind the Yankees pay $36 a
dozen for. The others will contain a
smaller, and still a smaller one. These
three will make up the terrapin fam
ily, and as Barbee knows how to keep
them alive for a century or so, they
will no doubt make the trip to and
from the North in good shape.
I his part of the exhibit is to be the
least interesting of the satchels con
tents, however. The greatest interest
wil lie in the small incubator which will
be in one side of the receptacle. This
will carry a supply of terrapin eggs
scheduled to hatch during the time the
CITY COUNCIL AFRAID
SEWAGE CONTRACTOR
WILL GET RICH QUICK
Councilman S. A. Wardlaw Is strug
gling with the problem of how much
profit a contractor should make on a
$25,000 city contract.
Because it appeared that Contractor
W ilson would make too much money
on an electrolytic sewage disposal plant
for Druid Hills, the sewer committee of
council turned down his bid yesterday
and referred the whole matter to the
councilman for investigation.
For three years Mr. Wilson has per
sistently endeavored to sell the city one
of the patent plants. The Druid Hills
Company has turned over to the city
$25,000 for a sewage disposal plant.
The sewer committee decided some time
ago to give Mr. Wilson a chance if he
properly would safeguard the city with
a bond.
Chief of Construction Clayton esti
mated that the cost of the plant would
be SIB,OOO. Mr. Wilson’s estimate is
that it would be $22,500. It was esti
mated by the committee that Mr. Wil
son’s profit would be about $6,500, and
it was decided that that would be too
much.

TWENTY-SIX YEARS PLAYING
PART IN "THE OLD HOMESTEAD”
Exerting the same Irresistible influence
op the theatergoer which it began to
manifest more than a quarter of a cen
tury ago. “The Old Homestead” began a
two nights and matinee engagement at
the Atlanta theater last night.
A liberal portion of the very large au
dience was composed of people who have
formed a habit of witnessing a per
formance of each return engagement of
this great American stage classic, and
who would as quickly think of letting
some important daily task pass unper
formed as to miss an evening with t’n
cle Josh and his friends when they come
to town
The company presenting “The Old
Homestead” at the Atlanta is the original
company, and numbers among its mem
bers Gus Kammerlee. playing Henry Hop
kins, who originated that part in 1886.
And many of them have played their
parts nearly a quarter of a century
Fred Clare, as Happy Jack, the tramp,
joined the company in 1889, and has been
playing the part continuously for twenty
three years Margaret Boustead. as Anna
Maria Murdock, and George L. Patch, as
Len Holbrook, also joined the company
in 1889.
Charles H. Clark, playing Seth Per
kins. took up the role in 1894, and prac
tically the entire present cast has been
playing together nearly a decade.
It goes without saying, in the light of
the above facts, that the present per
formances measure up to the highest
mark in producing .the down East char
acters that are homely and lovable to a
degree.
If you have never seen "The Old
Homestead," see it now. If you have
seen it, see it again.
Matinee and night today.

for it has been greeted by capacity houses
since Its opening on Monday night. The
plot unfolds a wealth of picturesque in
cidents and startling drama, relieved by
the mirth and melody of the Southern
darkies. The story of "The White Slave"
is an old one. for there are patrons of
the play house who will remember it as
one of the most potent attractions that
visited the Grand in times past The
company presenting ft this season is a
strong one. Headed by Frederik J. Ad
