SAVANNAH WANTS THE
NATIONAL HIGHWAY
An Extension From Augusta to
Jacksonville Would Mean
That the Highway Would Go
Through Savannah.
Mr. E. W. James, chief of mainte
nance of the l\ S. bureau of pubM'
roads, was in Savannah a day or two
ago and discussed the plans of ex
tending tltc national lliglNway ironi
Augusta on to Jacksfmville via. Sa
vannah. The national highway now
runs from Washington, D. C., to At
lanta, via. Augusta.
The Morning News has this to say:
In extending the federal supervision
from Augusta to Jacksonville, the
most direct and practical route foi
tile entire stretch would be chosen,
avoiding long detours and loops wher
ever possible. From Augusta to Sa -
vannah this supervision would very
probably he over the road passing
through Richmond, Burke, Screven and
Effingham, but not Chatham county.
Mr. James said that the roads of this
county are so well kept that federai

of cold, throat sore, has stomach-ache,
diarrhoea, indigestion, colic —remem-
ber a good “inside cleansing'* should
always be the first treatment given.

Figs," which has directions for babies,

Fig Syrup Company.”
ANOTHER DOCTOR’S EXPERI
ENCE WITH EX-ZEMA-FO
Dr. B. F. Hawley, 3646 Chestnut
St., Philadelphia, writes: “Some
months ago my attention was called
to EX-ZEMA-FO, claimed to be a
specific for eczema. The remedy was
highly lauded by an eminent jurist,
who obtained complete relief from its
use. I am somewhat loath to employ
or recommend secret or prgprietary
medicines or lotions not knowing their
compound; but on investigating I was
convinced of its harmlessness and em
ployed it in some dozen or more cases
with perfect satisfaction. A strange
thing occurred during my observa
tions, viz.; A member of my own
family was suddenly afflicted with
general eczema. I used EX-ZEMA
FO freely with the satisfaction of
procuring both prompt and lasting re
lief. My sense of medical ethics
would prevent me in tendering you
this testimonial, but my feeling of
gratefulness in having obtained both
the product and necessary informa
tion from you, may perhaps .justify
tny sending you this communication.
You are entitled to this.” So confi
dent are we that EX-ZEMA-FO will
relieve any case of eczema or other

county fairs throughout the country this
fall. it Is an attraction worthy of at
tention, especially from merchants and
persons who can use the parcel post
advantageously.
In addition to the parcel post exhibit
at the fair, a postoffice fob* the conven
ience of patrons of the fair and those
connected with the shows and exhibits
will be operated. Superintendent Kings
more announces that there will be a

every day; stamps will be sold, and mail
received and delivered. There will be
a delivery in the morning fVom the post

supervision would not be necessary.
He commented very favorably upon
the work of \V. F. Brown, county en
gineer. ,
‘•The greatest essentials for success
ful road building and upkeep," said Mr.
James, "are experience and familiar
ity with the locality and its road bed
materials. Mr. Brown has both and
his work is therefore very satisfac
tory.
“This is absolutely the first effort
that ever has been made to correlate
road work between counties," he con
tinued. "The idea in developing the
roads in every county is simply that
they shall be a part of a through high
way."
Mr. Solomon, together with other
leaders of the local good roads move
ment, immediately will take up the
question of federal supervision with
the counties whose roads are not yet
as well developed as they might be.
Mr. James said that a supervising en
gineer from his bureau now is avail
able and as 3oon as the counties have
agreed to the plan he will he sent here.
While in Savannah Mr. James made
an inspection of a nature which he
declined to make public, He left at
night.

Augusta, the Home of George
Stallings, Wants to Tender
Him a Dinner. Telegram Sent
to Him.
George Stallings, the Miracle Man
of Baseball, has been invited to at
tend a dinner in his honor when he
comes through this city enroute to his
plantation at Haddocks, Ga. Stallings
is an old Augusta boy, was born and
reared here, his father at one time
being Augusta’s postmaster. George
and “T. P.” Stallings, his brother, now
a resident of Augusta, made up a
famous battery in the old Southern
League days and the big chief of the
Boston Braves was the receiver, while
“T. I’." was the pitcher. It was some
battery.
George Stallings has always been a
successful manager. He had the New
York Americans up to a high state of
efficiency when Frank Farrell at the
command of Ban Johnson, so many
baseball men say, ran Stallings away
from New York, or In other words
canned him. Stallings went back to
Buffalo, where he had been managing
a pennant winning club in the F.ast
ern League, now the International
Association, and after »a short stay at
Buffalo he was engaged by Jim Gaff
ney, the Tamany Hall contractor, who
had purchased the Boston Nationals
Everyone knows the story of Stal
lings and the Braves this year.
The fellow townsmen of Augusta
want to honor the Big Chief and the

like the bowels, get sluggish and clog
ged and need a flushing occasionally,
else we have backache and dull misery

aches. rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and
all sorts of bladder disorders, dizzy
spells, spots before the eyes, frequent
desire to urinate.
To avoid above troubles you simply
must keep your kidneys active and
clean, and the moment you feel any
of the above symptoms, get a good
sized bottle of Stuart’s Buchu and
Juniper Compound from any good
drug store, take a tablespoontul in a
glass of water after meals. Stop
eating sweets or sugar. In a few
days and your kidneys will then act
fine and natural. Stuart’s Buchu and
Juniper is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to nor
mal activity. It also neutralizes the
acids in the urine so it no longer
hurts to pass water, thus ending blad
der disorders
Everybody should take Stuart’s Bu
chu and Junltier now and then to
keep their kidneys clean. Be sure
you get Stuart’s Buchu and Juniper.
