OVER FOES OF
Combine of ‘Drys' With Anti-Re
visionists Broken When House
Votes to Reconsider Bills.
Th<* combination formed by “dry’
member* of the House and the mem
bers who oppose all tax revision to
defeat bills favored by Speaker W II
Burwell and Governor Slaton was
broken, for the present at Dast, Fri
day morning*, when the House voted
to reconsider its action Wednesday
In defeating the constitutional amend
ments limiting the school levy to
2 1-2 mills and the pension levy to
1 1-2 mills.
The votes op the motions to recon
sider, which were offered by Full-
bright, of Burke, were 86 to 67 and
to 58, respectively.
The action of the House is re
garded as a victory for Speaker Bur-
well, and indicates that some of his
bi'ls, which are administration meas
ures, may be passed in spite of th*
opposition tax reform foes and “dry”
members said to he moved by a de
sire for revenge because of failure
to get thv Webb bill out of commit
tee.
Bills To Be Put on Passage.
With the action of the House re
considered. the two bills—the school
levy and the pension levy—undoubt
edly will be brought up for passage
at this session. It is understood they
may be placed on the calendar for
Saturday or Monday. The placing
>f the bill is solely in the hands of
the Rules Committee, and while Us
members would not convict them
selves, one member stated positively
that tin* House would be given an op
portunity to pass the bills during the
present session.
Speaker Burwell has been hard at
work trying to heal the wounds
caused by his ruling • Wednesday,
wh.n he declared the Kidd resolu
tion, calling the Hixon- Searcy bill
out of committee, out of order, and
indications arc he has succeeded.
The tight against Fullbright’s mo
tion to reconsider was feeble, though
its voting strength was fairly large.
Wallace Miller, of Bibb County, led
the opposition to the motion, lie <le-
clared the fixing of 2 1-2 mills us the
limit of levy for Hchool purposes
would result In appropriating that
amount each year, inasmuch as money
is always appropriated up to the limit.
Mr. Kidd Is Turned Down.
Mr. Kullbright made but a short
speech In favor of his motion, de
claring the opponents of the bills had
defeated them by spreading the er
roneous impression that they would
Increase taxation.
Mr. Kidd, of Baker, tried to lead a
h^ht against Speaker Burwell at the
opening of the Friday morning ses
sion. Ills effort iailed, becau«“
Speaker Burwell refused to recognize
Mr. Kidd. When the report ol the
Rules Committee was submitted to
th* House, the Speaker asked the
usual question: 'Is there objection
to the adoption of the report
“I object.” shouted Mr. Kidd, In a
tone that could have been heard a
block.
“The ('hair hears none," announced
the Speaker.
Had Mr. Kidd been able to defeat
the report of the Rules Committee,
which fixes the work for the day. it
was his evident intention to attemm
to again introduce his resolution call
ing the Hixon-Searcy bill out . .f
committee

addressed to Chas. II. Fletcher.
Central Drug Co., of Detroit, Mich., says: ‘‘We consider your C as tori*
In a class distinct from patent medicines and commend it.”
Christy Drug Stores, of Pittsburg, Pa., say: ‘‘We hare sold your
Castoria for so many years with such satisfactory results that we cannot
refrain from saying ar good word for it when we get a chance.”
Jacob Bros., of Philadelphia, Pa., say: “We take pleasure In recom
mending Fletcher’s Castoria as one of the oldest and best of the prepara
tions of the kind upon the market.”
Hess & McCann, of Kansas City, Mo., say: “Your Castoria always gives
satisfaction. We have no substitute for It and only sell ‘The Kind You
Have Always Bought,’ the original.”
The Voegell Bros., of Minneapolis, Minn., say: "We wish to say that we
have at all times a large demand for Fletcher’s Castoria at all of our three
stores and that It gives universal satisfaction to our trade.”
Polk Miller Drug Co., of Richmond, Va„ says: “Your Castoria 1b one of
the most satisfactory preparations we have ever handled. It seems to
satisfy completely the public demand for such an article and Is steadily
creating a growing sale by its merit.”
P. A. Capdau, of New Orleans, La., says: “We handle every good home
remedy demanded by the public and while our shelves are thoroughly
equipped with the best of drugs and proprietary articles, there are few
If any which have the unceasing sale that your Castoria has.”
M. C. Dow, of Cincinnati, Ohio, says: "When people In Increasing num
bers purchase a remedy and continue buying it for years; when It passes
the fad or experimental stage and becomes a household necessity, then
It can be said Its worth has been firmly established. We can and do
gladly offer this kind of commendation to Fletcher’s Castoria.”

THIS is the caution applied to the public announcement of Castoria that has
1 been manufactured under the supervision of Chas. H. Fletcher for over
Elaborate Program of Recreation 30 years—the genuine Castoria. We respectfully call the attention of fathers and
to Make Warm Springs Picnic mothers when purchasing Castoria to see that the wrapper bears his signature in
black. When the wrapper is removed the same signature appears on both sides
of the bottle in red. Parents who have used Castoria for their little ones in the
§ ast years need no warning against counterfeits and imitations, but our present
uty is to call the attention of the younger generation to the great danger of intro
ducing into their families spurious medicines.
It is to be regretted that there are people who are now engaged in the
nefarious business of putting up and selling ail sorts of substitutes, or what should
more properly be termed conterfeits, for medicinal preparations not only for
adults, but worse yet, for children’s medicines. It therefore devolves on the mother
to scrutinize closely what she gives her child. Adults can do that for themselves
but the child has to rely on the mother’s watchfulness.
