Confidence In
Your Business.
The most valuable asset any business
house has is public confidence. Without that,
all success, or apparent success, is builded
on the shifting sands. An essential to the
winning of public confidence is systematic,
scientific, truth-telling advertising, placed in
high-(jlass publications. The Massengale Ad
vertising Agency can prepare just.tlie right
advertising, and this paper is a medium of
the highest class. This is a valuable hint. Act
l
on it.

Bpoclsl to The Georgian.
Gainesville, Os., Nov. 18.—Miss Msry
Charles Garrison, of this place, died
yesterday morning at the home of her
nephew. J. M. Garrison. Miss Oarrl-
son was born in 1810 and in spite of her
advanced years had been mentally and
physically active until very recently.
Although deaf since childhood as the
result of an attack of scarlet fever,

territory for more than half a century
for her cheerfulneso, her readiness to
help all those In trouble or distress.
A member of one of the most dis
tinguished families In Georgia, she waa
the sister of the late Judge J. N. Gar
rison. and the beautiful example of her
Christian character will be greatly
missed by her wide circle of friends
and relatives. She leaves In Atlanta a
niece, Mrs. W. W. Foreacre, and a ne
phew, 11. C. Garrison, superintendent

NEGRO MINISTERS
DECLARE EDUCATION
HOPE OF THEIR RACE
The Colored International Ministerial
Union of Atlanta has Issued an open
appeal to the i>eople of Georgia to lend
their best assistance in an effort to
train the colored labor of the state Into
useful and competent laborers.
The union appeals for practical Insti
tutions In the state to train the negro
hoys and girls in the domestic arts and
trades, and points out the great good
that will arise from the agricultural
schools for the white.
It is pointed out that from the mil
lion negroes In Georgia should come
the skilled workers along agricultural
and certain domestic avocations. A
great central Industrial school for the
state and schools of domestic science
In the cities would tend to brldg about
the desired result.

BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION
Lady of Fifty Leeks Liks Sixteen,
A Nashville lady found a way to
beautify her complexion without the
use of drugs or face creams.
•'Before I began the use of Grape-
Nuts,- she writes, “1 was convinced I
conld not live long. I was sick all the
time; heart trouble^ kidneys seriously
affected, eyesight had, sense of smell
was gone and hearing very poor. ■■
"My family thought I had dropsy
and could not get well, and I only ate
Grape-Nuts because I slept better aft
erwards—did not dream I could be en
tirely cured, had quit all treatment and
Rven up hope.
“After spending a large sum of
money and being under the best physi
cians for three years without relief, I
commenced eating Grape-Nuts food
three times a day and now I am sound
as a dollar, am In perfect health, flfty
years old and my complexion Is better
thsn some girts at If.
•T never iiave headache, nerves are
strong, sight so much improved I need
no classes, heart and kidneys In per
fect condition.
“Tour Grape-Nuts alone cured me
and I cannot find words to express my
thanks to the Posltlm Company. I have
told hundreds of people what cured
me. It was simple food that I could
digest."

damage has been done by Improper
eating, not knowing any better way. A

EVEN MONEY BET
DN CITYJLECTION
Brunswick in the Throes of
Local Election of Mayor
and Board.
Special to Tho Georgian.
Brunswick, Ga., Nov. 18.—Today’s
primary election will decide who are to
be Brunswick's mayor and aldermen
for the term commencing January 1.
This fight for the control of the city
government Is exciting far greater In
terest than the recent primary for se
lecting a member of the legislature of
the state primary, which named Hoke
Smith as Democratic candidate for the
governorship.
The chief Interest centers In the race
for mayor. There are two candidates
for the office, namely, Colonel C. P.
Goodyear, who some ten years ago
made a national reputation through his
scheme to deepen the channel across
Brunswick bar by using dynamite to
blow out obstructions to navigation,
and Captain W. F. Symons, who Is a
promlnsnt cltbsn and has held various
county and city offices. Both, candi
dates declare In favor of municipal
ownership of water, gas and electric
plants. However, Colonel Goodyear Is
balng supported pretty solidly by the
present owners of the water, gas and
electric light plants, and Captain Sy
mons Is backed by almost all of the
men who favored the granting of the
trancljlse for an alectrlc street railway
and light plant, which was given J. H.
Neff and associates some 16 months
ago.
The race promises to be a very close
one, and It Is a "toss-up” which of the
candidates will be chosen as the next
mayor of Brunswick. Beta are being
placed at even money.
Visits Nsw Orleans.
Colonel A. Park Woodward, general
manager of the Atlanta waterworks.
Is spending several days In New Or
leans, having been Invited there by the
management of the waterworks of the
Louisiana metropolis.
The city of New Orleans Is now con
structing an entirely new system of
waterworks, at an approximate cost of
18,000.000. It was thought that a visit
by Colonel Woodward would be bene
ficial to the waterworks departments
of both cities; he could give sugges-
tlnmuto the New Orleans management
und“ould gain knowledge by a thor
ough Inspection of the new system
there.
Mayor May Veto the Meas
ure Passed by the.
Council.
The prlncfpnl matter to be transact
ed at the meeting of council Monday
Bfternoon will bo the sustaining or the
overriding sf the mayor's veto of the
franchise granted the Atlanta and Car
olina Construction Company.
This will be the third time the fran
chise has been before council. It was
once passed by coupcll and recommit
ted to the ordinance committee by the
oldermanlc board, a number of resi
dents on the right of way Asked, hav
ing objected.
The committee on electric and other
railways made a personal Inspection of
the proposed right of way. paying espe
cial attention to the streets said to be
too narrow for tracks. The committee
again reported favorably, with the pro
vision that these narrow streets be
widened by tlje company to twenty-
four fe«t. Over the protest of a num
ber of cltlxens, council again passed
on and granted the franchise.
The aldermanlc board concurred,
a last resort, the residents, wito claim
that the building of the railway will
decrease the value of their property,
and who say the line will be dangerous,
pleaded with the mayor to veto It. Tho
mayor did so.
This, therefore, will be the third
time before council. It la probable
that the mayor's veto will be‘over
ridden roughshod, although not certain.
Tho mayor only objects to the pro-
'•osed route, and council may mako tho
nterurban select another one. A live
ly debate Is expected.
Terminal Question.
Next In Importance to the Inter-
urban railway question will be the pe
tition of the Gate City Terminal Com
pany for rights to cross’certain streets
In the construction of a road-bed and
tracks for the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic railway.
There. Is sure tq be lively protesting
here. At least twenty-five property
owner* on streets which will be affected
have already voiced their strenuous
protests. It Is possible that the streets
committee will not be ready to report
on the petition In time for the meeting
Monday afternoon.
If the committee does report It will
very probably be favorable to tho peti
tion. with many and wide changes and
restrictions. Council will uphold the
action of the committee.
Another quest Ion, which will ot
slon much debate and occupy much
time of council, will be the report of
the salary committee, recommending
raises In salary for about twenty city
hall officials, and a decrease of 81,000
for the chief of tho fire department.
There will be an application of J.
Hlrsowlts, whose saloon license was
revoked, to allow him to run his estab
lishment thirty days longer in order to
dispose of his stock of goods. It will
probably bo turned down. There will
also he an application from one whisky
dealer to be allowed to change his
place to a negro saloon, Instead of a
white saloon. Unfavorable action Is
probable.)

COSTS NOTHING TO TRY.
Caturrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to Incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or
bloating sensation after eating, accom
panied sometimes with sour or watery
risings, n formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lungs and
difficult breathing, headaches, fickle ap
petite, nervousness and a general
played-out, languid feeling.
There Is often a foul taste In the
mouth, coated tongue and.If the Inte
rior of the stomach could be seen It
would show a slimy, Inflamed condition.
Tho cure for this common and obsti
nate trouble Is found In a treatment
which cuuses the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before It ha* time
to ferment and Irritate the delicate mu
cous surfaces of the stomach. To se
cure a prompt and healthy digestion
Is the one necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is secured the
catarrhal condition will have disap
peared.
According to Dr. Harlanson, the saf
est and best treatment Is to use after
each meal a tablet, composed of Dias
tase. Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux.
Golden Seal and fruit acids. These
tablets can now be found at all drug
stores under the name of Stuart’s Dys
pepsia Tablets and not being a patent
medicine can be used with perfect
safety and assurance that healthy ap
petite and thorough digestion will fol
low their regular use after meals.
Mr. R. S. Workman, Chicago, III.,
writes: "Catarrh Is a local condition
resulting from a neglected cold In the
head, whereby the lining membrane of
the nose becomes Inflamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward Into the throat reaches the
stomach, thus producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities pre
scribed for me for three years for ca
tarrh ot the stomach without cure.-hut
today I am the happiest of men after
using only one box of Stuflrt's Dyspep
sia Tablets. I cannot And appropriate
words to express my good feeling.' I
have found flesh, appetite and sound
rest from their use."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is tHe
safest preparation as well as the atm-'
pleat and most convenient remedy for
any form of Indigestion. Catarrh of
