Exploring Smoke-Befogged City by Torchlight

Eleven delegates to next week's gas

dimly under the

The visitors
seized their grips,

secmei? a great caVe filled with fin
opaque, mouse-colored substance in
which even arc lights made but a taint,
rosy spot.
“V bat’s this'.” asked the leader.
“This is outdoors in Atlanta," replied
the guide.
“What town for a gas company!”
exclaimed the head of the party, in ec
stfiey. “Twenty-four hours consump
tion a day. No wonder we’re holding
the exposition here. Pitt burg has noth

"Well, are you game'. ' asked another.
"Let's all go exploring in darkest At

Punching Holes in the Gloom.
They stood on the sidew-alk tor a
while, watching the pedestrians picking
their way along the curb, bumping into
each other in the gray cloud, hesitating
to cross the street. Trolley cars crept
past, clanging their gongs furiously.
Their headlights were turned on In full
power, though it was past 8 o’clock.
Motor car drivers tried vainly to make
their acetylene lights shoot holes in the
gloom, but even these searchlights could
not cut the smoke.
There was an English delegate In the
party, and he was the only happy man

It's mueli thicker, and tastes far worse.

"What is it—-fog or smoke?” asked
the man from Kansas City. "Let’s call
up the weather expert."
“It is smoke —all smoke.” said tla
forecaster, 'll is worse than usual to
diiv. because there is no wind to blow
it away."
“Then if Atlanta had no w ind for a
week, a eltiz- n would not be able tc
leave his <';..«r at high noon, with the
in shining bright, and find : i.- way tc
the next corner,” said a scientific mem
ber of the party. "If there were ni:
wind, the whole city would first h<.

that no human could breathe, and in a

Groping in the Srridows.
The L ;y tried to inak its way up
Peacbtre street to a hotel. It was dif
ficult going, in tin gray shadow. It
was .ike walking in the wake of a for
est fire, for the smoke wrapped them in
its embrace, choked th dr lungs, filled
their eyes. Their hands and faces werr
grimy will: soot. Their * ollars, donned
a half houi ’afore in the Pullman
looked as though to caways in the coal
bunkers had worn them.
At last, by feeling theii way along
the buildings, inquiring of the dimly
outlined forms which passed with the
confidence which comes from familiar

"Why doesn’t Atlanta do away with
this smoke?' demanded tile visitors in
surprise.
“It’s trying to.” explained the Atlan
tan who bad welcomed them. "We have
a smoke commission, with power to or

"There ought to be a half-million in

said the visitor. "I suppose your police

“U-u-m, well. You see—” began the

achs. liver and 30 feet of bowels so
promptly and thoroughly.
Children get bilious and constipated

sick, the tongue is coated, stomach sour,
breath bad; they don't eat or rest well;
they become feverish, cross, irritable
ami don't want to play. Listen. Moth

the little one to swallow nauseating
castor oil, violent calomel or harsh irri
tants like Cathartic i ni'- A teaspoon
ful of Syrup of Figs will have your
child smiling and happy again in just a
few hours. Syrup of Figs will gently
clean, sweeten and regulate the stom
ach, make the liver active and move on
and out of the bowels all the consti
pated matter, the sour bile, the foul,
clogged-up waste and poisons, without
causing cramps or griping.
With Syrup of Figs you are not drug- j
ging or injuring your children. Being :
composed entirely of luscious figs, s* ii :
