901 TAKEN FROM
LINES ON HOOKS
Royal George, Aground in St.
Lawrence. Probably Will Be
Total Loss.
QUEBEC, Nov 7 All of the 901 pas
senders on the Canadian Northern Royal
Mall steamer Royal George, which went
ashore on the rocks in a heavy fog last
night, in the St. Lawrence river, ten miles
from this -Ity, were taken off early today
The Royal George, which was bound
from Bristol to Quebec, probably will be
a total loss. Wrecking steamers, ferry
boats and tugs were pressed into service
as rescue ships and stood by the Royal
George all night.
Despite the roughness of the weather, a
wireless rejtort of the accident said that
the vessel was traveling at nearly full
speed when she crashed upon the rooks.
GIRL OM3 INDICTED FOR
PROHIBITION VIOLATION
COLUMBUS, GA., Nov. 7.—For the
first time in the history of Muscogee
county a thirteen-year-old white girl
has been indicted by the grand jury
and that on a charge of violating the
prohibition law. The girl la Alice <'ox.
whose brother, J. Cox. has been Indicted
on three chargee for the same offense.
The girl was taken before Judge S.
Price Gilbert of the superior court, who
sssessed a bond of $360 against her. It
Is probable that Judge Gilbert will take
the case up in th# juvenile court Instead
of the superior court In un effort to
help the child Instead of giving her a
term on the chalngarit If she.tiMltald be
found guilty.

per cent.
You Should Have
Seen the Pimples
But Now Her Face Is the Fairest
of the Fair, Due to Stuart’s
Calcium Wafers.
Those dimples are like pearls In a
ruby cluster when Stuart's Calcium
Wafers clear the face of every pimple,
epot and blemish. And even If you
haven’t dimples, the clear, transparent
skin of a healthy, Calcium Wafer com
plexion is more radiant than the deft
touch of /tn artist to the most exquisite
water color.
Stuart's Calcium Wafers act directly
upon the sweat glands of the skin,
since their mission Is to stimulate the
excretory ducts. They do not create
perspiration, but cause the skin to
breathe out vigorously, thus transform
ing perspiration into a gaseous vapor.
The calcium sulphide of which these
wafers are composed, consumes the
germ poisons in the sweat glands and
pores, hence the blood makes a new.
smooth skin in a surprisingly short
time.
You will never be ashamed to look at
yourself In a mirror, once you use
Stuart's Calcium Wafers. Nor will your
friends give you that hinting look, as
much as to say—for goodness sake, get
rid of those pimples
There Is no longer any excuse for
anyone to have a face disfigured with
skin eruptions, when it is so easy to get
rid of them. Simply get a box of
Stuart's Calcium Wafers at any drug
store and take them according to di
rections. After a few days you will
hardly recognize yourself in the mir
ror. The change will delight you im
mensely. All blemishes will disappear.
All druggists sell Stuart’s Calcium
Wafers at 50 cents a box.

Georgian First and Best on Elections
Georgia has had three important state elections this year. In each of these The Georgian
has demonstrated the superiority of its news service in this state. It has shown it ability to
give first and accurate information on the results.
When the Democratic presidential preference primary was held May 1. The Georgian was
the first Atlanta paper to issue an edition declaring that Oscar Underwood had carried the state.
Tn the Democratic primary, held August 21, The Georgian was the only Atlanta paper that
did not concede the election of Judge Nash R. Broyles over Judge J. R. Pottle, and the first
to declare a tie unit vote in that contest, with a popular vote majority for Pottle.
In the presidential election of November 5. The Georgian was the first Atlanta paper to is
sue an edition estimating Wilson's majority in Georgia, that edition being on the streets at
8:30 o’clock election night with an estimate of 70.000 for Wilson over Taft and Roosevelt.
The official returns are verifying this estimate, as Wilsdn's majority is now within less than
5,000 of the 70,000. Ten hours later one Atlanta paper credited Wilson with only 35,000 ma
jority and 20 hours later the other paper gave him credit for only 50,000.
Up and Down Peachtree
P. A. Y. E. Cars Perplex
Country Bridal Pair.
The son of n jud&e In Zebulon, Ga.,
married a girl in his home town the
other day and came to Atlanta on his
honeymoon. The oouple strolled down
town from a hotel near the Candler
building, made a few purchases and
decided they would ride out Peachtree
to see the residential eights
They had never seen the “street! of
Cairo"—-that Is, they had never liyed In
a real city and ridden on street cars,
so the “pav-as-you-enter" variety of
conveyance presented some perplexi
ties. First, the couple started to get on
byway of the front platform, until the
motorman gave them the icy stare.
Then they pushed on past the con
ductor at the rear until the latter offi
cial had to yank the astonished bride
groom back by the ear and make him
give up fares Things quieted down a
bit when the couple got a seat in the
middle of the car. but trouble started
again when they attempted to get off.
Instead of taking either door at the
front of the car, rtgijt or left, the bride
groom seized the brass bars in the cen
ter and hogan to tug away at a great
rate. He pulled toward him, pushed
from him, yanked to either side until
he was all shades of crimson In the
face. He might have been tugging
there yet had not a small boy swung
open the door at the right and let the'
unhappy couple out. They caught an
early train back to Zebulon
Oh, Yes. All Atlanta
Now ‘'Knows" Wilson.
There has been an idea prevalent
throughout the state that Hoke Smith
has a rather extensive personal ac
quaintanceship in Georgia. It has also
been said that* Uncle Jim Woodward
knows quite a few people In Atlanta,
but since Tuesday's triumph it has de
veloped that these gentlemen are com
paratively as little known as a hermit.
Woodrow Wilson has by far the biggest
circle of personal friends of any man
who lived in Georgia from the days of
Oglethorpe to the present moment.
It wasn’t known until Tuesday,
though. When Governor Wilson was a
struggling young lawyer in Atlanta it
is altogether likely that he would have
appreciated that extensive acquaint
anceship. But now you can’t walk a
block on Peachtree street without find
ing at least eighteen patriots who have
a personal reminiscence of Woodrow.
There is the man that he lost a law
case for. There is a woman to whom he
owed a board bill. There is a person
who ahlne.d his shoes. There are flocks
of chums and old sweethearts, and on
and on.
Right now' the easiest way to attain
distinction is to voice the claim, “I am
the only man in Atlanta who doesn't
know Wilson.” Nobody would dispute
you.
Water, Water; AU the
Time, Not a Cup to Drink.
An unseen hand was provided a san
itary drinking fountain at the Forsyth
street entrance of the city hall. This
inscription Is al! that Indicates the
doner:
"Donated to the thirsty people of At
lanta by two city hall officials.”
The fountain Is about three feet
high and has a bowl at the top. Water
bubbles up in a constant flow from a
cup in the center of the bowl. To drink
you lean over and sip the bubbling wa
ter. There is no need for a cup. The
surplus water flows into the bowl and
runs out a drain pipe connected to the
bottom of the bowl.
Officials in the water department said
they had promised not to tell who had
given the fountain.
IHE ATLANTA GEOKUWS AND NEWS.THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 7. 1912.
Washington Monument
Left As Last Resort.
There’s an Atlanta jeweler who Is fond
of music, and therefore hates hand or
gans, street pianos and hurdy-gurdys
with a hate which is deep and bitter.
This jeweler went to Washington not
long ago for an extended stay, and
Washington is so full of hurdy-gurdys
that you can't dodge out of the way c>t
a congressman without bumping a yard
of “Trovatore" out of one of these nui
sances- the hurdy-gurdy, not the con
gressman, of course.
He stopped in a hotel the first night
and went to bed late, as is customary
when away from home. Next morning
one of those, music butchers ground out
“Everybody's Doin’ It" until the jeweler
gave up trying to sleep. He changed ho
tels that night, but next morning another
Italian was on the job, tearing the stuff
ing out of the morning atmosphere.
Next morning the Atlanta man went
roqm hunting, and he found what he was
looking for. It was a cheap apartment
house, rather dingy and greasy, but up
an alley 60 feet from the street, on the
order of Atlanta's Bachelor’s Domain.
Mr. Atlantan paid for a room and went to
sleep, intending to stay there until noon
before thinking of getting up.
At 8 a. nt., he was awakened by a
sound as if ajl the hurdy-gurdys in the
District of Columbia were holding a con
vention. Such a jumble of opera and rag
time never broke out before in one place.
The Atlantan arose, madder than ever,
and went out into the street with a club.
There wasn't a musician In sight.
"Where the devil does all that racket
come from?" he asked the janitor, bel
ligerently.
"That music?" returned the custodian.
“It’s in the room right opposite you.
There's a fellow in there that tunes hur
dy-gurdys tor every grinder in Washing
ton."

Right now we are showing the largest stock
of fine high-grade yet popular priced Feminine
Footwear in the city of Atlanta, and the de
mand being made upon it easily proves that it
pays to try to please the smartly gowned young
women of Atlanta and the South.
Last Saturday was the biggest day in the
history of our shoe business, and to those who
did not get waited on or did not get the careful
individual fitting, we .extend apologies.
A word to the wise is sufficient—Don’t put
off buying shoes until Saturday, if you can pos
sibly help it. Os course we are glad to see you
any day that you honor us by calling, but if you
can arrange to come in before 10:30 or 11 a. m.. and any day in the week’be
sides Saturday, you will avoid inevitable delay caused by clerks going to
lunch as nearly everybody shops between 11 and 1 o’clock. Buying shoes
takes more time and requires more careful individual service than anything
we can think of. almost. Please take this in the spirit that it is intended—
for your benefit.

Common Insects
of Infantile Paralysis, Ex
periments Prove.
——
WASHINGTON. Nov. 7.—Ordinary
stable flies have been conclusively iden
tified as carriers of infantile paralysis,
or poliomyelitis, according to a report
made to the public health service by
Dr. John F. Anderson, director of the
hygienic laboratory, and Passed As
sistant Surgeon Wade H. Frost.
The report gives the result of experi
ments with three monkeys, which, after
being exposed to the bites of files which
at the same time were allowed dally to •
bite two monkeys Inoculated with virus
of the disease, developed typical symp
toms of poliomyelitis seven, eight and
nine days, respectively, from the date of
their first exposure. In each Case the
diagnosis was confirmed by an autopsy.
Further experiments will be neces
sary to determine whether this is the
only or usual method of transmission
of the malady.
