These pictures show the Improvement that may be made by using Dr. Kelly's Form
Developer. Bust full and plump. Wrinkles gone. Complexion beautiful.
A full. beautifully developed bosom is a
woman's charm that makes her more at
tractive than bright eyes, regular features
or flowing hair. Women who are thin,
flat-chested and undeveloped always feel
humiliated and embarrassed when out in
ths society of the more fortunate mem
bers who possess the beautiful curves of
a perfect figure.
A discovery that is of vital interest to
all thin women, to all who wish perfect
and full development, is offered to read
ers of this paper absolutely free for intro
ductory purposes. This scientific treat
ment ts the result of long study and in
vestigation by one of the leading physi
cians in New York state, who in seeking
to overcame the defects in her own figure
without the use of pads or forms, discov
ered a happy combination of tissue-build
ing elements that increased her bust some
four inches, made her arms round and
shapely and her neck and shoulders plump
and symmetrical.
This prescription of Dr. Catherine
Kelly’s is a real discovery on far different
lines from ordinary form development
treatments, and this explains its almost
uniform success. A peculiar feature of
her prescription which makes ft especially
valuable in the present styles of dress is
ihat it has no effect upon hips, and it
simply makes the bosom full and firm,
does away with the scrawny, skinny neck
and gives plump, symmetrical arms.
tier treatment is absolutely harmless

aWe results by many leading society
women. Read a few extracts from those

There’s No Place
For The Pharisee '
In Our Midst
To the Editor of The Georgian:
M.v fervent desire in writing of the methods which the "Men and Religion Move
ment adopted to correct certain social evils, which beset all communities in common,
was to stop, by earnest suggestion, the publication of salacious articles, which I con
sidered hurtful to relined standards, and offensive to delicate firesides.
In that article I said not one word against the main object said to be in view,
that oi moral uplift and social betterment, but confined my argument to the great wrong
that had been done Atlanta, by a thoughtless campaign of indecent publicity, which ad
vertised our great and beloved city as a Sodoma of filth.
In that article T deplored such publicity, on account of the expressed opinion that
such methods would hurt the material growth of Atlanta, and corrupt, by lascivious sug
gestion. the minds of twenty innocent girls, before reclaiming one fallen woman.
Phis was a serious, well-considered fear that 1 felt, as a citizen, and as a home
lover. I would have been untrue to the standards of the home, false to the higher duty
of moral citizenship, derelict in my better service to God. had 1 suppressed the view,
and withheld its kind and earnest presentation.
I did not desire a controversy.
I had no idea that any man. whose love for Atlanta was such as to cause him to re
sent the imputation that she was steeped in moral filth, and therefore, deserved a special
dispensation, before she could show her fair face in comparative array with other cities,
could or would take issue with the suggestion that I intended to impress.
It was my wish and hope that these men of a doubtful movement, would see their
error, and determine to discontinue the issuance of hurtful bulletins, through which was
being flaunted to friendly rivals in civic growth, the shame of a great city, that deserved
better at the hands of her own children, whom she had made to grow and to prosper.
My surprise was great, therefore, when I received a rude letter from a minister of
the gospel of Christ, condemning me by such false and vulgar innuendo as should form
sufficient ground for his expulsion from th? ministry—and for no other reason than I
had committed the unpardonable offense of presenting to the higher thought of Atlanta,
in this twentieth century of enlightened progress, views on propriety at variance with
those held by this pulpit bigot.
I present the letter as written, spelling, punctuation and grammar, with the exception
ol one sentence that carries with it a suggestion too vulgar to spread before a decent
public. The reader might overlook the pitiable ignorance of the reverend author, were
it not for his low. brutal intolerance. Read his letter:
“Dear sir: The men and religion movement are offering & care for the poor delud
ed girls. Atlanta is a tough town and you know il Where is the man that has daugh
ters that does not fear for them here if Atlanta wants to escape the penalty that came
to Sodom she had better reform-—Do you own some of the houses used for immorality
Are you a white slave traficer Who are you anyway. * * • • (This sentence was
too vulgar *4O reproduce.)
Rev. G. D. Stone was the writer of the above beautiful emanation of Jove and
charity. He is the pastor of Payne Memorial Church. He belongs to the period of the
Inquisition, or to the early days of Puritanism in America —full of that intolerance
which would crucify me before the bar of public opinion, for no other reason than my
mind does not accord with his narrow demand.
While it showed the author to be lacking in correct appreciation of the softer stand
ards of religion and gentility, so essential to the pulpit, a better defined view of the
man would be, to think of him as a harmless harlequin, a kind of merry-andrew of the
pulpit, who needs but the cap-and bells to make the buffoon complete. \
Why should I be thus condemned? I had not offended religion. I had not defended t
immorality. I had spoken for the pure. My letter was in line with ethical discussion of
a question, the adjustment of which demands the most earnest and forbearing consid
eration of every element of lofty thought.
My confidence in the home-life of Atlanta was of that high order as to lead me to
opine, there was not one-tenth part of our population that knew, except by report, there
was any such quarter in our city as a segregated district.
When, therefore, a few misguided crusaders began to spread before the old and
young of both sexes, detailed definitions of the location, surroundings and doings of the
underworld, I felt that it was timely some pen of righteous indignation be invoked
against the work of ruin, which was hidden in the mad campaigning that thoughtlessly
placed such information within the reach of the young and the pure, and to condemn
the injustice done Atlanta, by an hysterical treatment of common-place conditions, exist
ent in all cities alike.
My letter was a normal treatment of natural conditions, intended to arrest the at
tention of thoughtful men. .
The words of approval, by mouth and letter, received from hundreds of the best peo
ple of Atlanta, convinces me that the thinking people of our city commend the course
which I took in behalf of the home-circle, but which I can not continue without co-op
eration from those who feel the same interest in correcting the evil done by fanatical
propagandists, as that which forms the incentive of this and other articles that may be
considered necessary.
I do not intend to surrender the pen that has been drawn in ethical defense of At
lanta. at the behest of the Stones of the pulpit. Nor will unchristian criticism swerve
me one hair breadth from the course directed by a mind and heart that live in a superior
atmosphere to that which germinates ignorant ‘and polluted polemics, to feed the licensed
pen of the Pharisee.
As I recall, the “mne and religion movement " made no recommendation as to closing
the segregated district in their vice, report to council, and it was denied that Chief Beav
ers was advised by them to issue his order of closing—an order which many of the best
people of Atlanta think was a mistake, on account of the fear that these women, being
compelled to have shelter, would move into resident districts. These are of the opinion
that the wrong end of the stream has been selected for the corrective starting point
emphasizing the theory that were home-training invoked, the fountain would be kept
pure and the stream undefiled; whereas, if the stream is dammed, the hackwater will be
sure to inundate, with its accumulated filth, districts of respectability, carrying moral
devastation in its wake. About this phase of the question T did not write. I was will
in that the future decide as to the wisdom or the folly of Chief Beavers’ course.
After the closing order was issued and the heroism of the act dramatically adver
tised. the “men and religion movement’' resolved to sustain the chief of police, stating
that reputable homes for a great number of these people, had been offered, and that every
thing was ready to carry the unfortunate from the district of shame, into the moral atmos
phere of unpolluted home-life, at a bound.
Without any feeling than one of kind sympathy for the fallen, who doubtless pos
sess many of the virtues of charity. I thought, and still think, this was a move of moral
hazard.
I felt that the man who would ask his wife to take one of these under the roof
that covers a mother's honor and a child’s devotion, is a fool—whether a knave.
I felt that the woman who would consent to so horrible a plan of elevation, would
stand before the world a pitiable impersonation of that fanatical acquiescence, which
deserved to be protected by a word of caution.
I felt that it would be a horrible, hideous, heinous riak—an advisory step that should
cause men to beware!
I felt that behind the thin veil of such religious obeisance sleeps the demon Jealousy
—which, when aroused, will divest herself of the robe of sweet and loving gentleness:
rudely cast to the winds of despair the fragrance of a mother’s love: and, with a shriek
of horror, dismantle that glowing structure .of the home.—woman's devoted self-sacri
fice.
1 did not think that any firesirk* of Atlanta should be subjected to this awful risk.
In the name of God, I did not see how any man could become so swayed bv religious
zeal that he would ask the wife of the home to take h venture into paths beset with
such domestic thorns.
1 felt that the plan proposed was pregnant with evil—one which no sane man
would adopt or advocate.
1 hen. too. I felt that a great injustice had been done those merchants and manu
facturers who employ girls as saleswomen and seamstresses as well as the girls themselves,
by advocating better wages, on the basis of a questionable comparison of conditions in
Atlanta, with the sweat shopa and attendant evils, in the congested centers of a distinct
ly different civilization.
For thus defending Atlanta, and for thus inveighing against indelicate discussion
ami offensive comparisons, to the detriment of our biiiness, working ami jovial commun
ity. I have been made the victim of vulgar ignorance and malignant intolerance.
So be it. 1 will not surrender my ,>en to the maledictions <»f organized hysteria.
