You’re a young man " said < hambere "Yes, and able to take care of my self." answered Hutcheson, Chairman Haverty said such re marks would not be permitted and the hearing was resumed. .. — y Historic British Gates Bought by American Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.

"Unfortunately, it has been invoked too frequently In recent years to ptinish the offenders rather than to prevent the offense. Its application i been destructive, rather than conservative and consructive Capitalization Evil. J favor maintaining the basic principle of the Sherman anti-trust law until a new. substantial law Mhall be enacted to protect the inter ests of the public against possible ag gression on the part of the trusts. "One of the most serious evils re sulting from ‘big business' is ascrlb- able to the overcapitalization of in dustrial corporations, which results in the enhanced cost of their products to the consumer, since the cost of production is based not only upon the tual cash invested, but also upon the watered stock issued upon the promoters' proftt-s. "The public does not so much ob ject to paying prices which would al low adequate earnings on the actual financial investment a» it does to be ing charged upon the basis of over- capitalization.

Indigestion, headache, biliousness and rheumatism. 95 per cent of all diseases originate In the digestive tract, says Dr Charcot, the French scientist. Food poisoning destroys strength and resiliency and the system succumbs to malevolent germs But It is not the food itself which de stroys; It Is impaction and fermenta tlon.
