F. D. No. 1 Lewisburg. Ky.—“ Fifteen yews ago I was badly affected with eczema upon my scalp first, then it spread all over m y body and continued to ' - grow worse for four years. It began with a dry rash forming scales. After fortn =s ing thick scales or gcabs the ,• z ' ■ irritation forced me to , scratch the scabs off and the "\T\ft hair would come out with \ them. Upon my face and I dy tlie sores would get inflamed and they ,! tigered my face. It was worse where my i ,ili. irritated them. The eruption was a y 110/ish watery kind, sometimes bloody. In uarni weather it was so bad I was no.t a- i,, v.ork on account of the raw irritating sorts c.i my head and body. Sometimes i , - n s would spread until two or three of them would get together and form one large sore. tffer trying various medicines without relief I tried Cuticura Soap and Ointment. After using four cakes of Cuticura Soap and four boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of the Resolvent I was entirely sound and well and have been for eleven years. Cuticura Soap and Ointment cured me when all others failed to do me any good.’’ tSigned) W. H. Williams, Mar. 19. 1912. Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment are sold throughout the world.

I I Mr. Chambers has had a large experience in municipal affairs and has demonstrated that he is one of the ablest, most I careful and conscientious officers in public life in the city of Atlanta today. || Atlanta cannot afford at this time to place a man at the head of her government who does not represent all the qualities g of the best public officials to be found at the head of municipal governments in other cities. || Mr. Chambers is honest, he is just, he is experienced, he is progressive, he is broad minded and tolerant, and the citizens I g of Atlanta can rest assured that he will do nothing to bring reproach upon the fair name of our city. 1 We believe at this crisis in the city’s affairs that the city should place such a man at the head of its government.

A. i Fuller, to solicit support of legislative member.- and business men generally. The work of the committee has been secret, to prevent, if possible, any an tagonistic organization the city justices might form. “We are soliciting the support of the legislative members as well as all other men in the state to carry the proposed amendment in the general election Oc tober 2, and we have sent many of them letters asking their support of the bill.” said Mr. Fuller today. Only City Justices Hit. "The one thing that might prevent the peoples indorsement of the bill at the polls is that many of them do not understand what it means. "That is what we are aiming to ac complish by sending the letters. We are asking each man to explain to his neighbors that the amendment pro vides that only justices in cities of over 20.000 population are to be done away with. "The amendment does not provide that all the courts shall be done away with. That is not what we seek, for as they a-e conducted in smaller places than those of 20,000 population they give the best possible means for dispos ing of legal tangles. Detrimental in City. “But in a city it is different. The practices common to some of the courts are such that they had better be thrown out. of existence if the people want jus tice.” Walter McElreath. former member of the legislature, who introduced the jus tice of peace bill, is aiding the bar as sociation and has assisted in getting out the circular letters. "We want the judges of the justice courts in smaller towns and in the country to know that we do not oppose them. We are simply aiming to rid Atlanta and the other cities of nearly the size of what has been demonstrated time and time again is detrimental to the people's rights,” he said. THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 14, 1912. SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS ON GEORGIA POLITICS Friday, the 13th —yesterday—was "lame duck” day in the Kimball house lobby. As if by pre vious concert of action, the “also rans” of tffc late primary drifted into the famous ild stamping ground, presuma bly to talk things over and to be sure, at the same time, pf pouring into entirely sym pathetic ears the story of how they each and every one will “put it over” next time— put it over the late mysteriously and unaccounta- bly fortunate enemy, sure! First of all came John N. Holder, of Jackson, speaker of the house and as pirant for Thomas M. Bell’s seat in congress. Holtjer was in a very happy frame of mind, and if defeat has served to dampen his buoyancy he failed to let it be known yesterday, so far as ap pearances went “The Lord chasteneth His best be loved now and then.” said the speaker to a group of'friends, "and I therefore am not of heavy heart. I can not be lieve that a patriot so truly undeflled as myself could have been east into outer darkness, there to abide forever more. I am not losing any sleep, any way, and I shall not lose any. I am content that things fell out as they did—l have nothing but good wishes for my successful rival. Tom Bell.” Besides Speaker Holder, the other "lame ducks” drifting into the Kimball were Roland Ellis, of Bibb; Emmett Shaw, of the new Third congressional district; Walter Wise, of the Sixth; John W. Bale, who went down before the prowess of “Bill” Ennis up in the Rome judicial circuit; Smith, of Dooly, and others less unmistakably known to fame. "By golly, it looks like a Tame duck’ convention may be in session some where in this vicinity,” said Ben Black burn, after carefully and analytically considering the situation. Judge Henry Revlll, of Meriwether, tells a rather good story of a negro ar rested for vagrancy' down in his neck of the woods recently. “This negro had long been under the eyes of the authorities," said the judge, "but he is known to be pretty smart, and his arrest was not undertaken un- By JAMES B. NEVIN. t-JJI mH Bp JAMEO 15 til it was thought sure that a charge of vagrancy might be sustained against him. "When finally he had been landed, however, a lawyer was appointed to defend him, and in consultation the ne gro vehemently protested his lnnocenc> of vagrancy, whatever otherwise might be wrong with him in the eyes of the law. "’I Yvants you to tell the court,' said the negro to his lawyer, 'that Ise no vagrant. I manages a laundry—y ou tell him that.’ “ 'You manage a laundry?' returned his attorney. 'I never heard of that! XV hat’s the name of your laundry?’ "'Maria,' said the defendant, 'and she my very own wife, too!’ "I do not know what the Jury will decide when that unique plea is sub mitted to it,” concluded Judge Revill. "It’s rather a close point, 1 think!" William H Ennis, of Floyd, is on his first visit to Atlanta since his triumph for solicitor general of the Rome cir cuit a few days ago. Whether in honor of his election or something else, Mr. Ennis bewildered and bedazzled his numerous friends around and about the city in the fore noon with the most glorious and gorge ous necktie anybody in this Gate City ever had known him to wear. It was composed of the most elusive combination of colors imaginable, and could hardly have come more than one in a box, and some expensive per box. at that! “I have studied Bill' Ennis’ necktie critically for an hour,” said Wilson, of Gwinnett, “and the answer is quite be yond me. In its northern exposure it seems to be a placid sea-green, with a shimmer of purple and ashes of roses delicately intermingled. In its southern exposure it looks like a sunset in June time, suggesting a shower and a rain bow in the far east. In its western ex posure it resembles nothing so much as an—er—well, I hardly know how to express myself, being but a minor poet, and modest in my ways, at that!” "My idea is," said Charlie Northern, “that 'Bill’ Ennis won that tie on his election, and afterward somebody bet him $2 he didn't have the nerve to wear it!” Ennis himself would explain the tie not at all. Colonel Minter Wimberly, who is coming back to the house from Bibb, had a look in on things Atlantawise today. Wimberly’s prospective come-back is hailed by the press contingent in the house with unalloyed jov and delight. He is fine “copy” for the newspaper outfit. He always explains his vote to the house, and he seems smilingly, pleasantly and perpetually willing to explain anybody or everybody else's vote, if called upon. i FLAT FREIGHT BATE IS URGED Macon Chamber of Commerce Asks Railroad Commission to Revise Methods. The Macon Chamber of Commerce has petitioned the state railroad com mission to revise its present methods of prescribing freight rates in Georgia, and to substitute instead a plan pre scribing an arbitrary flat rate, and to require all roads to adopt that rate anil no other. Roads in Georgia are now classified in four divisions—A. B, C and D. The first class is permitted to charge a standard tariff only, without additions. The others are permitted to add a fixed percentage above the tariff, according to their earnings. The Macon Chamber of Commerce wishes the existing right of adding to freight charges accprding to the earn ings of roads abolished and petitions that all roads, regardless of all things, be required to charge the same rate for freight. The commission has not considered the Macon petition and will not do so immediately. It involves radical and revolutionary changes in the present methods and is sure to be opposed both by shippers and the railroads in many instances, although it will find support in other quarters.

Y., awoke today with a sigh of contentment in his room at the Congress hotel. The world was. running smoothly for Mr. Jinx. He arrived at the Congress yes terday—Friday, the 13th—Jinx day. He registered with a flourish. Then he confided to the clerk, John Burke, that he was born on the 13th day of the month and was the thirteenth Jinx in his family. Clerk Burke was interested. “I was born on the 13th myself,” he said. “You can have room 1323—the double hoodoo.” Then he called bell boy No 13 to show Jinx to his apart ment. ARMY WORM AT WORK ON DELTA PLANTATIONS JACKSON, MISS., Sept. 14.—Advices received here state that the army worm has appeared in several counties in the lower portion of the delta, nota bly Issaquena and Sharkey, and is mak ing heavy inroads on the cotton fields. Fortunately, the pest appears some what later than usual, and can not work the heavy destruction of last year. However, the worms will cut off all possibility of a top crop in the neigh borhoods infested. Some of the delta planters are busy at work using parts green and arsenate of lead In their cotton fields to cheek the ravages of the army worm.
