A Ntw Drink to Replace tha Old Tima “Apple Jack. w Twenty-five years ago the custom of making Sew Year's calls was u de lightful one for all concerned, until some of the boys got more “eggnog" or "apple Jack" than they could sue cessfully carry. Then the ladles tried to be charitable and the gentlemen tried to be chivalrous as ever and stand up at the same time. If anyone thinks there has not been considerable Improvement made In the last quarter of a century In the use of alcoholic beverages, let him *top to consider, among other things, the fact that the old custom of New Year’s calls and the genteel tippling Is nearly ob solete. The custom of calling on one's friends, however, at the beginning of the new year Is a good habit, and an other good habit to start at that time la the use of well-made Postum In stead of coffee or spirits. A Staten Island doctor has a sensi ble daughter who has set Postum be fore her guests hs a good thing to "drink nt Yule Tide, and a good way to begin the New Year. Her father writes: “My daughter and I have used Pos tum for some time past and wc feel sure It contains wholesome food ma terial. “I shall not only recommend It to my patients, but my duughter will be most pleased to give a demonstration of Poatum to our Christmas and New* 'ear's caller*.” Read “The Road to vllle” in packages. “There’* a rea- Blshop Earl Cranston, of Washing ton* D.. fi f * delivered a strong sermon to tno Georgia conference ol the Meth odist Episcopal church Sunday morn ing In the Rouse S.

The world Is full of disordered stom achs and 91) per cent of the money •pent upon physicians and drugs goes In an attempt to cure the stomach. People are made to believe that in order to gain health they must doctor their stomachs and une cathartics. So the doctor .gets his fee for the stomach treatment and the druggist for the physic, until the savings of a life time are exhausted and yet no cure. Let's be reasonable. The sick atomuch Is In every cane the result of over-eating, hurried mas tication and Improper choice of food*. The mucous lining all the way down the food tract loses' Its sensitiveness, and when food Is forced down the muscles fall to respond. They do not churn the food as they should. The glands no longer give out gastric Juice to dissolve the food and render It ca pable of assimilation. The man has be come a dyspeptic. There is one sure way and only one to bring positive relief. Put Into that etomach of yours the very elements that it lacks to get that food Into liquid form. It takes pepsin, diastase, golden seal and other ferment* to accomplish this. The healthy stomach contains these elements. The dyspeptic stomach lacks part or all of them. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablet Is made up of Just what the dyspeptic stomach lacks— nature's digestives. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a medicine, not a drug, not u cathartic. They do not cure anybody of anything but Dyspepsia and Indigestion and such ailments as arise from poorly digested food. While they digest the food the stom ach recuperates. The mucous mem brane Is coming out of Its stupor, the gastric Juice is coming to the surface, the muscle* are regaining their power. Every organ of the body takes on new life, the skin gains color nnd the eyes are no longer tinged with yellow. You live. Why doctor and why drug yourself? Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets will take care of your food while Nature cures you. Try a box at your druggist's, 60 cents. Dr. If you prefer a free trial package before buying, send your name and ad dress today. F. A. Stuart Go., <8 Stu art Building. .Marshall, Midi. Three Important matters will occupy most of the time of the general council at the meeting Monday afternoon. First, there is the recommendation it the special police committee on saloon licenses that the licensee for retail es tablishments In the city he raised from $2,000 to 12.000, and those for whole sale houses be raised to 8600. This will not be adapted without speeches of disapproval from a number of Interested outsiders, mainly whisky* dealers. The proposition of the com mittee to have this higher license em bodied In the city charter, will also oc casion much discussion. The reconi mendatlons that no beer saloon be ul lowed to operate In either the white or colored residence sections of the city snd that all applicants for licenses bo thoroughly examined as to character, etc., will not occasion any dispute. On Municipal Ownership. The recommendation of the special committee on municipal ownership that council appropriate $600 for a thorough Investigation of the practicability of Atlanta owning her own lighting plant may be fought, though no announce ment to that effect lias been made. The recommendation ef the salary committee, embodying the raising of salaries for a large number of city hall officials, and the reducing of the salary of tile lire chief from $4,000 to $8,000, Is sure to be fought by a number of council members. It Is safe to predict the adoption of the report 'of the saloon license com mittee, although It ts possible it will ,bo changed In a few respects. It Is rea sonably safe to predict the adoption of the recommendation' of■ the municipal ownership committee. There Is grave uncertainty as to what will be done to the salary committee report. If It does pass It will probably be In such changed form that It won't be recog nisable. CHRISTMAS CLOTHING OUTFIT $15.00.

Burn ley, 30 years of age, Is In a cell In the county Jail on the charge of shooting Tom McDonald, a negro, 8aturday night. McDonald died at Lamar Hos pital a short time nfter he was shot. 11» alleged by the two witnesses to the shooting that the negro was called out on hi* porch by F. K. Burnley and W. B.
