Delegation of Citizens Will Go to
Washington and Make Appeal
1
for Coal.
Acting on the suggestion of Sena
tor Hoke Smith that a delegation of
Atlanta citizens go to Washington to
personally present this city's request
for sufficient coal to relieve the fuel
famine, a strong committee was ap
pointed at a conference Wednesday
morning at the Chamber of Com
merce, and a telegram was sent to
Senator Smith asking him to arrange
y for a conference with the Federal
fuel authorities Friday morning, if
possible. ‘
It is thought that the committee
will leave Wednesday night. How-‘
ever, no definite hour will be named
pending the receipt of word from
Senator Smith concerning the date of |
the Washington hearing. ‘
The committee is composed of some
of Atlanta’s most prominent ('itizons,‘
. Who are well up on the coal situa
-8 W H. White, Jr, ‘the newly
elected president of the Chamber of
Commerce, is chairman. The nthnrl
members are Henry Kennedy, Atlanta |
fuel administrator; W. B. Baker,
president of the Atlantic Ice and "uul“
Corporation; Bulow Campbell, of the
Campbell Coal Company; C. E. Sci
ple, formerly a coal dealer and prom
inent in manufacturing circles
throughout the State.
A telegram was sent to Dr. Hard
man Wednesday morning, urging him
10 accompany the committee and use
his influence to lend more weight to
the arguments of the delegation.
Mr. Kennedy was busy all day
Wednesday gathering statistics from
the coal dealers of Atlanta relative
to the situation. The whole gist of
the matter, Mr. Kennedy reported,
. was that here is absolutely no coal
. In Atlanta to b bought at any fig
. ure, and that the dealers are “up a
¥ tree.”
Members of the committee agreed
. fully with the statement of Senator
~ Hoke Smith that the only way At
lanta people will he able to get coal is
10 have a delegation present to the
fuel chiefs personally the urgent needs
of the local public and impress upon
them the fact that something must
~ be done, and quickly.
/ Mr. Kennedy has made the sugges
tion that the public use steam coal
until shipments of domestic coal c:ml
bea received. This coal, commonly
- known as the “run of the mine,” can
. be secured from any local dealer, and
. probably will be sufficient to tide over
~ the emergency. Steam coal is cem
~ monly used by manufacturing com
~ panies, but may be used in the grate.
- It is reported that the people of
- Chattanooga have been using steam
~ egoal for the last 60 days, that city,
_ being in Atlanta’s predicament ex
f}flcuy.

Coal Shortage Sends
:§ .
- Northerners to Dixie
. The coal shortage in the North is
driving people to the South for the
_ winter, according to a “Gentleman
from Indiana” who visited the offices
of the Georgia Automobile Associa
tion Wednesday morning.
% This teurist reported that people
from the North had been able to rent
_apartments and rooms in the towns
%Qfl villages in Florida, at a figure
lower than the cost of a winter’s sup
gfl;’?‘l’ coal.

%Wer before in the history of the

- Mr. Reynolds estimated that fully

3 o'clock at the meeting of the wom
an's committee on Red Cross Christ

of the Retail Merchants’ Association,
the Salesmanship Club, the Real Es
tate Board, the Atlanta Chapter of

retired from the milling business.
That is to say, he's quit hauling
grist to the mill in his trasty
flivver for his neighbors and/oth

Mr. Paris frequently finds it
necessary to journey to Scottdale
on business, and he makes all
his business trips in his auto.
His neighbors, when they see him
hiteching up his flivver for a trip
down Scottdale way, often ask if
he would mind taking some corn
~ down to the mill for them. He
doesn't—or didn't.
: Tuesday he was Dbouncing
- merrily over the highways of De
. Kalb with a sack of corn, bound
| for the Scottdale mill. It was a
~ fine morning and he was letting
| the flivver have her head. Arrived
[ at the mill, he went around to the
back end of the car to get the
’ corn. It was gone. Back over the
route he went, but no trace of the
sack could he find, except for a
trail of yellow grain. And he
hasn't until vet,
“Never again,” he said Wed

Southern Wholesalers, in Session
Here, Say Company Would
Shift War Tax.
Resolutiong protesting against the
increase of 10 per cent ih express
ratgs which the Southern Express
Company has asked of the Interstate
Commerce Commission were adopted
Tuesday afternoon by the Southern
Wholesale Dry Goods Association in
session in Atlanta.
Norman Johnson. secretary and
counsel,\ declared the express com
pany was merely trying to force the
public to shoulder the war tax on its
profits.
“This isn’t an expense, but a charge
which every business must expeect to
pay,” said Mr. Johnson. “The express
company already is making the public
pay 5 per cent on everything shipped,
a charge the Government intended the
company to pay.”
Mr. Johnson took up the record of
the company showing that only 150,-
000 had ever been invested in the
Southern Express Company, which
hag paid enormous dividends.
The third division of the dry goods
organization, consisting of dealers
from South Carolina, Georgia and
Florida, met at the Chamber of Com
merce to discuss market conditions
and tax questiogs. An advance in
prices was predicted by them as a
certainty.

ble, despondent and melancholy. When
the iron goes from the blood of women,
the roses go from thelr cheeks.
In the most common foods*of America,
the starches, sugars, table syrups. can
dies, polished rice, white bread, soda
crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti,
taploca, sago, farina, degerminated corn
meal, no longer is iron to be found. Re.
fining processes have removed the iron
of Mother Earth from these impoverish
ed foods, and silly methods of home
cookery, by throwing down the waste
pipe the water in which our vegetabies
are cooked are responsible for another
grave iron loss. .
Therefore, if you wish to preserve your
youthful vim and vigor to a ripe old age,
you must supply the iron deficiency in
your food by using some form offorganic
iron, just as you would use salt when
your food has not enough salt.
Dr. A. J. Newman, late police surgeon
lof the city of Chicago and former house
surgeon, Jefferson Park Hospital, Chi
'cago, in commenting on Nuxated Iron,
says: “It has been my particular duty
during the past six years to assist in
keeping Chicago's five thousand® blue
coats in good health and perfect fighting
trim, so that they would be physically
equipped to wit.istand all manner of
storms and the ravages of nature’'s ele
ments. .
““Recently I was prompted through an
indorsement of Nuxated Iron by Dr.
Schuyler C. Jaques, visiting surgeon of
St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, New York, to
give it a,rial. This remefi!y has proven
through my own tests of it to excel any
preparation I have ever used for cre
ating red blood, buildin% up the-nerves,
strengthening the muscles and correct
ing digestive disorders.” j
Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who
has studled widely both in this country
and in great European medical institu
tions, says: ‘“As I have said a hundred
times over, organic iron is the greatest
of all strength builders. If people would’
only take Nuxated Iron when they fee!
weak or rundown, instead of dosing
themselves with habit-forming drugs,
stimulants and alcoholic beverages. T am
convinced that in this way they could
ward off disease, preventing it becoming
organic in thousands of cases and there
by the lives of thousands might be
saved who now die every year from
pneumonia, grippe. Kidney, liver, heart
trouble and other dangerous maladies.
The real and true cause which started
their diseases was nothing more nor less
than a weakened condition brought on
by lack of iron in the blood.

l ‘“Not long ago a man came to me who
- was nearly half a century old and asked
me to give him a preliminary examina
tion for life insurance. I wag astonished
to find him with a blood pressure of a
tboy of 20 and as full of vigor, vim and
lvitality as a young man; in fact, a
’young man he really was, notwithstand
‘ing his age. The secret, he said, was
taking iron—Nuxated Iron had filled him
with renewed life.. At 30 he was in bad
‘health; at 46 he was careworn and near
1y all in—now at 50, after taking Nus
ated Iron a miracle of vitality and his
face beaming with the buoyancy of
youth. i
~ “Iron is absolutely necessary to enabie
Your blood to change food into living
tissue. Without it, no matter how much
or what you eat, your food merely pass
es through you without doing you any
good, and as a consequence you become
weak, pale and sickly-looking, just like
a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient
in iron. If you are not strong or well
you owe it to yourself to make the fol
lowing test: See how long you can work
or’ how far you can walk without be
coming tired. ‘Next take two five-grain
tablets of ordinary Nuxated Iron three
times per day after meals for two weeks.
Then test your strength again and see
how much you have gained. I have seen |
dozens of nervous, run-down people who
were ailing all the while double their;
strength and endurance and entigely rid
themselves of all symptoms of dyspep—\
sia, liver and other troubles in from ten
to fourteen days' time simply by taking
iron in the proper form. And this after
they had in some cases been doctoring
for months without obtaining any ben
efit. But don't take the old forms of
reduced iron, iron acetate or tincture of
ircn simply to save-a few cents. The
iron demanded by Mother Nature for the‘
red coloring matter in the biood of her
children is. alas! not that kind of iron.
You must take iron in a f%'m that can‘
be easily absorbed and assimilated to do |
you -any good, otherwise it may prove
worse than useless. Many an athlete |
and prize-fighter has won the day sim
ply because he knew the secret of great
strength and endurance and filleq his
blood with iron before he went into the
affray; while many another has gone
down to inglorious defeat simply for the
lack of iron.”

' Dr. H. B. Vail, a medical examiner,
late of the Baltimore and Columbus Hos
pitals, says: ‘Time and again, I have
prescribed organic iron—Nuxated Iron—
and surprised patients at the rapidity
with, which the weakness and general
debility were replaced by a renewed feel
ing of strength and vitality. One man
47 years old who had practically worn
himself out with stimulating medicines
and nauseous concoctions came te me
recently after a month’s course of Nux
ated Iron and declared, ‘Doctor, I feel as
full of life and energy.as when a boy of
21." When you compare a product like
Nuxated Iron, which is easily assimilat
ed and does not injure the teeth, with
the jolder forms of inorganic iron, which
upset the stomach. ruined the teeth
and passed through the body without
doing any good, it is not surprising that
miilions of people annually are now eli
ing Nuxated Iron and physicians every
where are prescribing it.”
NOTE-—Nuxated Iron, whch is preseribed and
recommended above by physicians in such a great
variety of cases, is not a patent medicine nor
secret remedy. but one which is well known to
druggists and whose iron constituents are
widely prescribed hy eminent phykicians both
in KEurope and America. Unlike the older in
organic. iren products it is easily assimilated,
does not injure the teeth, make them black,
nor upset the stomach: on the contrary, it is a
most potent remedy in nearly all forms of in
digestion as well as for neryous, run-dewn con
di‘ions. The manufacturers have such great
confidence in nuxated iron, that the?™ offer to
forfeit * SIOO.OO to any charitable instituiion if
