HARMON? Ill
GEORGIA POLITICS
DEMOCRATS IN THIS STATE ARE
CLOSER TOGETHER NOW THAN
EVER BEFORE.
FEW - FACTIONAL FIGHTS
State Chairman W. 4. Harris Is Pleas¬
ed With Turn Politics Have
Taken in Georgia.
Events of the last week or two point
strongly toward a consummation of
the hope that political factionalism
has been permanently buried in Geor¬
gia, and that the state will face the
domestic and national problems of the
next decade with a united democracy.
The sentiment is apparently almost
unanimous that Governor Slaton
should be re-elected without opposi¬
tion, and that Senator Hoke Smith
should be given the continued and
undivided support of his constituents
in his great work at Washington.
The most significant utterance on
the situation has come, perhaps, from
United States Director of the Cen¬
sus W. J. Harris, who was in town
recently, wearing a smile as broad as
the whole state of Georgia. Mr. Har¬
ris is happy because he, as chair¬
man of the state Democratic executive
committee, had dreamed of harmony

DESERVE NOTICE
Mrs. Walls Makes Public Some In¬
teresting: Facts Which Should
Interest All Women.
Leinarts, Tenn.—Mrs. Martha Walla,
of this town,, makes the following
statements for publication: "I feel it
my duty to tell you what your medi¬
cine, Cardui, the woman's tonic, has
done for me.
For four (4) years I suffered ter¬
ribly with womanly troubles, and I
found no relief in different medicines
which I took. Finally, I began to take
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and after
taking six bottles I am completely
cured. I feel like a different person
altogether. All the pains are gone,
and I am in better health than I have
been in for four years. Have gained
a great deal in weight.
I still take Cardui as a tonic. My
husband, as well as myself, cannot
praise It too highly.
I hope this letter will induce other
poor, suffering women to try Cardui,
for it is the best medicine in the
world for women.”
If you suffer from any of the numer¬
ous ailments so common to all women,
why not take this lady’s advice, and
try Cardui? It has helped her, as
well as a million other women in the
past half century. Why shouldn't it
do the same for you? We feel sure It
will.
Heading of Mrs. W 7 alls’ helpful ex¬
perience should encourage you to try
what this medicine will do for you.
Get a bottle of Cardui from your
druggist to-day. You won’t regret it.

Perfect Lady.
One of the papers is running a con¬
test about “What is a perfect gen¬
tleman?” There Is a variety of opin¬
ions as to that; but do you know what
a perfect lady is? A meat dealer in
the east end gave a definition the
oilier day which has been sent us by
a correspondent. Our friend’s wife
was Boing her marketing, and in¬
quired about some new neighbors of
hers who traded at the same shop.
“Well, she's a perfect lady,” said
the butcher. “She don’t know one
rut. of meat from another.”—Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
Gently cleanse your liver and
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get a ld-cent box.
Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi¬
ness, coated tongue, ioul taste and foul
breath—always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in¬
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is reabsorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con¬
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarets immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret to-night will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you deep—a 10-cent box
frgm your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels rogulaj 1 for months. Adv.

PAINFUL ECZEMA ON HANDS
Bienville, La.—‘T was troubled with
eczema in my hands for several years.
The skin would break and look like
it had been cut with a knife and my
hands were so sore 1 could hardly
bear to put them in water and could
hardly use them. When I used them
the blood would run out. They would
heal a little and then they would get
worse than ever again. They were
very painful. The eczema got to
breaking out on my arms in pimples
which itched and burned very badly.
T used different remedies, also used
all kinds of facial creams and
on iny hands and arms and l did not
get any relief until I used Cuticura

hands and eczema w ith Cuticura Soap

and worked for harmony; he is about
to see the dreams realized.
Senator Harris gives the administra¬
tion of Governor Slaton great credit
for aiding in the mitigation of fac¬
tional feeling. He believes that Gov¬
ernor Slaton lias made liimself the
governor of all the people of Georgia,
and that it is vital to the welfare
of the state for Governor Slaton to be
re-elected and continued in office un¬
til his program is carried out.
Senator Harris expressed the be¬
lief that Georgia was more ably rep¬
resented in the United States sen¬
ate than any other state. Senator Ba¬
con has just been re-elected, and Mr.
Harris believes that Senator Smith
will be re-elected without opposition.
Another big fact jvhich points to¬
ward party harmony is that while
Senator Smith was in Atlanta^resting
he received personal assurances of
support not only from men who have
always been for him, but from lead¬
ers of former factions which In the
old days were opposed to him.
Thrifty South Georgia Boy.
A thirteen-year-old youngster, rais¬
ed on a Georgia farm, has come for¬
ward to set the world an example in
thrift and savings. His name is Bill
Engram, and he lives at, Rebecca, Ga.
An Atlantian who knows him vouches
for the fact that the boy who is earn¬
ing his living as a farm hand, and
making 41 cents a day g#d board, has
actually saved and put away 1100 in
less than nine months.
Atlanta bankers to whose attention
the boy’s case has been brought, de¬
clare that if the youngster lives he
will eventually be a millionaire.
It seems to be an illustration of the
old axiom that its not so much what
a man makes that counts as what
he saves.
Early Frost Checks Weevil.
The early frost stopped the boll
weevil, according to a statement by
Dr. E. L. Worsham, state, entomolo¬
gist.
"Had it not been for this early
frost,” said Doctor Worsham. “Georgia
farmers would have had to have be¬
gun their fight with the boil weevil
this fall instead of next year.
“As a result we will be able to se¬
cure for the bulletin which this de¬
partment is preparing on the boll wee¬
vil the report of the United States
department of agriculture, which will
outline how far the boll weevil has
traveled during 1913.”

Absent Stories About Prison.
Like a snowball rolling down hill
and getting bigger every time it turns
over, the criticism of Julian Haw¬
thorne against the Atlanta federal
prison has reached astounding propor¬
tions in traveling from coast to coast
and over the cable wires to Europe.
It started with the charge made
here that the food appropriation was
too small and that the men some¬
times didn’t get ‘enough to eat; also
that they were put into a dungeon
or underground cell for punishment
and sometimes handcuffed to the grat¬
ing.
After going the rounds, the story
has come back to Atlanta via San
Francisco, Havana, London and Can¬
ada. And it is some story! Haw¬
thorne himself would not recognize it.
It says that men are being starved
to death, and are being tortured by
being hung up by their wrists and
left dangling for days after the man¬
ner of the old Spanish inquisition. Of
course it isn’t true of the Atlanta pris¬
on, and probably isn't true of any oth¬
er prison in the United States, but
stories of that kind frequently get
the widest circulation, making up in
sensationalism what they lack in ve¬
racity.
Nature Asserts litself.
Tlie baby lions at Grant Park are
beginning to develop little traits that
show' their jungle ancestry. A cou¬
ple of weeks ago they were so tame
and gentle that the only thing to dis¬
tinguish them from playful ordinary
kittens was their size and tawny
bides.
But a day or two ago it occurred
to one of the cubs that the mild diet
it was on might be improved
by the addition of a little meat, and
it straightforth endeavored to bite a
small steak out of the wrist of the
keeper who was feeding it.
The wrist was jerked away without
serious injury, arid now the cubs are
being fed with greater care.
Stevens May Enter Race.
Col. O. B. Stevens, who was com¬
missioner of agriculture for a number
of years and a former railroad com¬
missioner, is being urged to make a
race against J. D. Price, the present
commissioner of agriculture.
Colonel Stevens is one of the best
known men in public life in Georgia.
He lias served in the house, in the
state senate, as commissioner of agri¬
culture and as railroad commissioner
during previous years. No doubt the
probability of his cand'dacy will arouse
considerable Interest a ml a warm
fight is predicted in this event in
the primary nexfcjsg&ar.
Southern*Actredy™Jgng Thomas Dixon's Mew Southern play, “The Play
Leopard's Spots,” f|ppted from his fa¬
mous novel, will be seen in Atlanta
on November 6, 7 and 8 at the At¬
lanta theater, Tinder the personal
management of the author.
Mr. Dixon’s latest drama follows the
book close enough to embody the
salient and most interesting features
of it, but combining several new r in¬
cidents and characters which serve to
make the play more attractive, start¬
ling and sensational.
Those familiar characters in the
hook that have been retained in the
stage version are Tom Camp, the crip¬
pled Confederate soldier; his wife and
daughter, General Wroth, Shelby, the
negro leader, and Allan McLeod. A
new heroine and intense dramatic sit¬
uations, delightful love scenes and j
touches of humor are intermingled. j
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, j
November 3, 4 and 5, Mabel and Edith
Taliaferro will appear with a fine com¬
pany in a new play; “Young Wisdom.”
This play has been received with en¬
thusiasm in the East.
Mabel and Edith Taliaferro have
never starred together. Each has been
an unqualified success in recent star¬
ring ventures, and the appearance of
both in the same play means an at¬
traction which is sure to hit the hearts
of the admirers of each. Mabel was
last seen here in “Polly of the Circus,”
while Edith lias just returned to
America after being sent to Europe
in "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm,” in
which she scored such a tremendous
success. The announcement of the
coming of the two stars was received
with pleasure by Manager Homer
George of the Atlanta, as he has
beep endeavoring for some time to
persuade the Taliaferro girls to bring
their show South,
Commodity Mileage Fixed.
The railroad commission of Georgia
has just prescribed and published a
line of special commodity mileage
rates, applicable on all intrastate
traffic to carload movements of crude
ground or pulverized limestone or
marble.
Ground or pulverised limestone and !
marble contain substantially the same
percentage of carbonate of lime, and
are of substantially equal value as to
fertilizing properties.
For the past few years the State
Agricultural Colleges and Experiment
Stations have been extensively dis¬
seminating information as to the val¬
ue of these products for land ‘fertil¬
izing purposes and especially a es¬
sentially necessary to cure the acid¬
ity of soils so general in this section
of the country, and have widely urged
their application to our farm lands.

U. S. TO SHIELD REPUBLICS
United States Seeks Nothing for Itself
But Well-Being of Its Neighbors.
Mobile, Ala.—While avoiding any
mention specifically of Mexico or any
European influence connected with the
Mexican situation, President Woodrow
Wilson delivered a speech here, which
appeared to be freighted with signifi¬
cance which served to point with fur¬
ther directness the policy of the Unit¬
ed States not only toward Mexico, but j
toward all Central and South Ameri¬ j
can republics. |
Mr. Wilson spoke before the South¬
ern Commercial Congress and the big
audience which heard him constant¬
ly was swept with cheers and applause. |
The president, smilingly, took his
hearers into his confidence when he
explained he must speak “with moder¬
ation and without indiscretion."
A score of South American and Lat¬
in American diplomats sat just behind
the president while he spoke, and
many of the remarks were addressed
in conversational tones to them.
There were those in the audience who
thought the president might take ad¬
vantage of the opportunity afforded
by his speech to say something re¬
garding the Mexican crisis. Mr. Wil¬
son, however, spoke only in general
terms,
Two Brothers Are Stain.
Greenville, S. C.—As the result of
a pistol fight in the public road near
Grey Court, in Laurens county, two
brothers—Ernest and Hunt Sharpe—
are dead, and Cornelius Edwards,
their brother-in-law, has been arrest¬
ed charged with the killing. Edwards
is slightly wounded in the arm. Dis¬
agreement over family matters is said
to have been the cause of the clash,
which occurred when the three men
met on a country road. After several
shots had been exchanged. Ernest
Sharpe was killed.
CHILDREN LOU
SYRUPJF FIGS
It is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.
Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the “dose” mother insisted
o £—castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it’s different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don’t realize what they
do. The children’s revolt is well-found¬
ed. Their tender little “insides” are
injured by them.
If your child’s stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli¬
cious “California Syrup of Figs.” Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless "fruit .
laxative” handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet¬
en the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor¬
row.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
of "California Syrup of Figs,” which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
an each bottle. Adv.
Shortened His Speech.
A good story concerning a certain
bishop with rather a reputation for
verbosity, who rose to address the
bouse of lords on some important ques¬
tion. He began: "I will divide my
speech into 12 heads." His listeners
shivered, and thought of the door. Just
then Lord Salisbury got on his legs,
and begged to interpose with a little
anecdote. “A friend of mine,” said
the noble marquess, “was returning
home late one night, when, opposite
St. Peter’s he saw a drunken man try¬
ing to ascertain the time on the big
clock there. At that moment it be¬
gan to strike, and slowly tolled out
12. The man listened, looked hard
at the clock, and said: ’Confound you.
why couldn’t you have said that ail
at once?’ ” The chamber, needless to
say, resounded with laughter, in which
the bishop heartily joined: and, what
is more, took the hint.
FALLING HAIR MEANS
DANDRUFF IS ACTIVE
Save Your Hair! Get a 25 Cent Bottle
of Danderine Right Now—Also
Stops Itching Scalp.
Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
bcalp; of dandruff—that awful scurf.
-There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. It mbs the hair
of its luster, its strength and Its very
life; eventually producing a feverish
cess and itching of the scalp, which
it not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die—then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
tonight—now—any time—will surely
save your hair.
Get a 23 cent bottle of Knewlum’s
Danderine from any store, and after
the first application your hair will
take on that life, luster and luxuriance
which is so beautiful. It will become
wavy and fluffy and have the appear¬
ance of abundance; an incomparable
gloss and softness, but what will
please you most will be after just a
few weeks’ use, when ;ou will actual
ly see a lot of fine, downy hair—new
liair —growing all over the scalp Adv.
