A Single Remedy Often Cure*
Many Diseases
BY VALENTINE MOTT, M. D.
It i* almost impossible to give a list of
the endless diseases that follow indigestion.
Perhaps a whole column in this newspa¬
per would be required to print them ail.
Von eat to keep alive—to supply blood and
flesh and bone and muscle and brain. It
is easy to see that if your food is not di¬
gested and taken up by the delicate or¬
gans and distributed where it is needed, a
disease of some sort is sure to come. Dys¬
pepsia is a common symptom, and so are
liver complaint, loss of flesh, nervousness,
bad memory, dizziness, sleeplessness, no
appetite. Many times, when neglected, in¬
digestion results in coughs, throat diseases,
catarrh, bronchitis and even more danger¬
ous things. And all these disorders arise
because the food is not properly digested
m the stomach. It is plain even to a
child that relief and cure are to be bad
•nly by setting up a healthy condition in
the stomach. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.
Y-, many years ago combined a number
af vegetable growths into a temperance
fwmedy for indigestion, and called it
Golden Medical Discovery. It is probably
the most efficacious discovery ever made
in medicine, for the list of people all over
the world who have had their countless ills
uvercome by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery makes an amazing total of thou¬
sands.
I know of no advice better than this:
Begin a home treatment today with this
good vegetable medicine. ft will show
you better than I can tell you what it will
do. When taking Golden Medical Dis¬
covery, you can rest assured of one very
important thing—it contains neither alco¬
hol nor opiates. There is nothing in it
but standard roots and herbs that possess
curative properties of a high order. A
■afe medicine is the only kind you can
afford to take.

ered From AH Parte

as plans and surveys at this time,
(he only requirement being that ap¬
plications must be accompanied by
evidence of the county’s good faith
and ability to make good on the* bid

tion for the development of its roads,

tions, throughout the southern coun¬
try, coming from Louisiana, Mississ¬
ippi, Florida, Alabama, North Carolina,

panied by local revenue agents, staged

months, at the Frank Cooperage
works, in the rear of 325 Decatur
street. The big raid occurred within
two blocks of the police station.
Signs Order For Railroad's Sale
Savannah.—Federal Judge Evans
has signed an order for the sale of
the Georgia Coast and Piedmont rail¬
road, on petition of David Loewenthal,
of New York. W. J, Talbert was ap¬
pointed commissioner and the first
Tuesday of May set for the sale, which
will be held in Brunswick. The road
is bankrupt and has given mortgages
on the property approximately $2,-
250,000.
Brunswick Building 2nd Oil Refinery
Brunswick.—While very little pub¬
licity has been given to it. because the
owners are among those who seek
as little publicity as possible, still
there is now in course of construction
in Brunswick what is claimed will be
the second to the largest oil refinery
in this country. The work Is progress¬
ing rapidly on many of the buildiugs,
tanks, etc., and each day a large num¬
ber of new workmen are being added.
Paanut Cruahws Organize in Albany
Albany—Peanut crushers from
Georgia, Alabama and Florida met
here and organized under the name
of the Southeastern Peanut Crushers'
association. Fears were expressed

for peanut products and the farmers
thereby secure a higher price for their
products the acreage devoted to this
crop in the southeast will be seriously
reduced this year.
Atlanta Votes For Bond Issue
Atlanta.—The $1,000,900 municipal
bond issue which was voted by the
voters of Atlanta, was duly authorized.
The proposal to restore the city tax
rate to $1.50 was lost by a margin of
134 votes on the face of the unofficial
returns. These figures show that 2.-
411 votes were cast for the tax rate
restoration, while 2,545 were cast
against it.
Sample Paved Road Is Given Approval
Griffin—The piece of sample con¬
crete road constructed on the Dixie
highway between Griffin and Experi¬
ment a few months ago has been ap¬
proved by the federal government as
well as others who have seen it, and
the government has offered a special
appropriation of $60,000 to have the
pavement extended to the Henry couu
ty line, a distance of six miles. The
county commissioners are arranging
the balance of the amount necessary to
build the road.
Urge* Employment For Tabor
Atlanta.—Governor Dorsey has re¬
turned from the conference of gover¬
nors held in Washington for the pur¬
pose of discussing the problems of re¬
construction. He expressed the opin¬
ion that many good results will be ac¬
complished through the general un¬
derstandings reached at the confer¬
ence, and through the co-ordination of
effort in the various states. The first
and foremost need of the country, said
Governor Dorsey, is for the widest
possible employment to be given to
labor. While the conference developed
unanimity of opinion on very few
general subjects, there was no differ¬
ence of opinion as to this question. It
was the unanimous sense of the con¬
ference, the governor stated, that the
federal government, the state govern
ments and the municipal governments
should at once go forward with all
possible public work, bat that this
buffer employment will not be suffl
cient. to meet the needs of the situa
tion. Business men generally, Gov¬
ernor Dorsey declared, ought to pro¬
ceed at once with ail kinds of activity
so as to furnish employment. The
general opinion of the conference was
that no reduction of the cost of labor
can reasonably be expected in the
near future, nor any substantial re¬
duction in the cost, of living. The thing
to do, in his opinion, and in the opin¬
ion of the conference, is for every
business man to give employment to
as many people as he possibly can.

the bridge over the Ochlocknee river

finally adopted the military terms of
German disarmament. These provide
for an army of one hundred thousand
men enlisted for twelve years
Turning Point Reached

turning point of the conference," says
the Paris correspondent, of the Daily
News. “Not even when the Germans
come will there be a week-end more
important than the past one. The pre¬
paratory work is nearly finished and
the preliminary convention of peace
will be ready in a few days. By the
time President Wilson reaches Paris

cret that Premier LloydGeorge con¬
siders disarmament the touchstone of

BATTLE CRUISERS NOW
BUILDING FOR NAVY
MAY BE SCRAPPED
Work Suspended Until Decision Is
Reached As To Future Type
Of Capital Ship
Washington. — Possibility that the
whole battle cruiser program of the
navy, involving an expenditure of
nearly half a billion dollars, will be
abandoned in favor of a new type of
cruiser battleship was indicated by an
announcement that Secretary Daniels
had ordered suspension of work on
the six 35-knot cruisers alreday au¬
thorized until a decision as to the fu
ture type' of capital ship could be
reached.
Variety Of Opinion
There is a wide difference of opinion
among American naval officers as to
whether the slow battleship and the
fast cruiser should not give way in
the future to a ship combining the
power of the one and nearly the speed
of the other and because of this fact
congressional committees have defer¬
red action on six additional cruisers
until a full report on new types can
be made by the department.
Daniels Goes To Europe
It is to gather information for this
report that Secretary Daniels and his
three chief technical advisers will sail
for Europe March 15. They will be
met overseas by Admiral Benson, chief
of operations, and Vice Admiral Sims,
and, upon their return some weeks be¬
fore congress meets in extra session,
probably in the early summer, a gen¬
eral conference will be held, at which
a majority opinion of experienced oftt
eers will be worked out as to what
types of capital ships should be built.
Russian Prisoners Flee German Camp
Berlin.—While soldiers who had
been called to suppressSrioting in Span
dau were absent from the Ruhleben
camp, about five thousand Russian
prisoners of war in that camp made
their escape. The Russians now are

Probing Attack On U- S. Soldiers
London.—An inquiry was begun by j
a board consisting of two American ;
army officers and one naval officer
into the rioting in which soldiers and j
sailors and London police were in¬
volved. The inquiry will probably con
tinue for several days, as a large num- j
her of witnesses are to be examined.
Representatives of Scotland Y’ard and
the British army were present in re- j
spouse to an invitation to watch the ;
proceedings, which will be secret. Ad¬
miral Sims says the investigation Is j
not significant.
Prisoners Reported Executed In Berlin
Berlin.—Murders, fighting and plun
dering continue in various parts of j
the city. There is much sniping from ;
the roofs. Many Spartacans have been
made prisoners recently and summary
executions began following the appear¬
ance of the order of Herr Noske, sec- j
retary of military affairs. Three loot
ers caught in the acts were the first
to be executed. The government sol- 1
diers were so embittered by the op¬
ponents’ atrocities that Herr Noske’s
decree is reported to have been very
welcome
