The Pimple
And The Face
First Show Signs of the Blood Pov
erty Which Causes Most Skin
Diseases.
It is a strange truth that pimples
usually appear upon the face, thus
Illustrating that nature uses the most
diryr method of convincing man that
thJblood is filled with poison.
-he human circulatory system is
said to be the most wonderful of all
evidences of nature. It carries health,
food and strength to every part of
the body. It also carries from ev
ery part of the body all germ life,
waste matter and decay.
If through poor eating, Indigestion,
constipation, etc., the blood is filled
with poisonous, decaying, irritating
fluids, these poisons are carried to
the lungs, where they are attempt
ed to be cleansed by the oxygen from
air inhaled.
If this does not accomplish the
results demanded the blood takes
away the poison and carries it to
the little oells of the skin, where
they leave it. Here these poisons
irritate and decay, until at last they
form pimples and blackheads and
other skin eruptions; at last burst
ing or are removed by man.
When you have pimples it is a cer
tain sign your blood is wrong, that
the great human blood system is turn
ed into an intricate series of sewer
age canals which are filled with Im
purities.
Science long ago learned that Cal
cium Sulphide was the most power
ful, harmless and beneficial blood
purifier obtainable.
Stuart’s Calcium Wafers, under
chemical tests, conclusively prove
themselves to be one of the best
methods of preserving the full
strength of this great blood cleanser.
The real beauty of Stuart’s Cal
cium Wafers lies in their rapid work.
Their good effects are seen after only
a few days’ use and a face full of pim
ples has been made clear and clean
after only five days’ use of these
wafers.
These wafers, by the peculiar Stu
art process, preserve and hold the
full strength of Calcium Sulphide, so
that the system obtains this wonder
ful purifier in it# most efficient state.
Other methods of administering and
preparing Calcium Sulphide havq
proven Stuart’s Calcium Wafers to
be the best method.

box of these little pimple eradicators

name and address and we will send
you a trial package by mail free. Ad

MACMANUS WILL TALK
OF WIT OF THE IRISH
Lecturer is a Master of
Irish Tales and Folklore.
For an hour Seumas MacManus
will delight his hearers Tuesday
niglit at St. Patrick’s hall with his
lecture on Irish Folk-Lore. There is
no finer native wit in the world than
that of the Irish people and Prof.
MacManus has made hisself a mas
ter of the Irish tales, and the Irish
characteristics. As his name tells
he is a native Irishman and has de
voted years to the study of his peo
ple, their traditions, manner of view
ing the world and peculiarities. To
this he adds a philosophy that is
wholesome and refreshing. He talks,
only for an hour, but it is said that
so well does he interest his hearers
that few are aware of the passing of
the time.
The Knights of Columbus, under
whose aupices Mr. MacManus makes
his Augusta debut, have arranged to
make Tuesday an Irish night and
some of the familiar Irish melodies
will be sung by solo and in quartet
by well known singers. Tickets for
the lecture may be had of any Knight
of Columbus, at Dorr’s, Callahan &
Dobson’Sj Rice & O’Connor’s and
other Broad street stores.

Anti-Option Reform Has Caused
Big Loss, Says Chicago Evening Po s?
South Losing Much Money.
Cost Exceeds Two Hun
dred Millions. Farmers
Union Leader Calvin
Changes Front.
From the Chicago Evening Post.
“Their hand was sore and they cut
off their hand," so says E. A. Calvin,
ex-president of the Farmers' Union
of Texas, who was largely responsi
ble for the passage of the anti-future
law now on the statute books of that
state. At the time of the passage
of that law there was a widespread
clamor for its passage by the pro
ducers and ignorant masses, who im
agined that pernicious influences were
lowering the prices of their commod
ity instead of the fact that their com
modity was responding to the natural
laws of supply and demand. That
people should clamor is in no wise
different from previous records of his
tory, begining with the Tower of
Babel down to the present date.
Daniel Webster, in the United
States senate in 1833, delivered a
speech in which he said: “There are
persons who constantly clamor. They
complain of oppression, speculation
and a pernicious influence of accumu
lated wealth. They cry our loudly
against all banks and corporations
and all means by which small capi
tals become united in order to pro
duce important and beneficial results.
They carry on mad hostility against
all established institutions. They
would choke the mountain of indus
try and dry all the streams. In a
country of unbounded liberty they
clamor against oppression. In a coun
try of perfect equality > they would
move heaven and earth against privi
lege and monopoly. In a country
where property is more evenly di
vided than anywhere else they rend
the air shouting agrarian doctrines.
In a gountry where the wages of la
bor are high beyond parallel they
would teach the laborer that he is
but an oppressed slave.”
Mr. Calvin states he has discovered
that they desired elimination of
bucket-shops, but which has also
eliminated legitimate brokers, has
cost the South in the neighborhood
of $200,000,000 to $300,000,000. and he
has the courage to acknowledge his
error of having made a mistake and
expresses a willingness to rectify his
error before it leads into the ultimate
result —disaster. For a period of
about two years the Texas anti-future
law has been operative, and during
that period of time a constant de
cline in cotton has been noted, and
at psychological periods, when the
presence of speculative support would
have given the market a marked
buoyancy, and, making due allowance
for the period of industrial and finan
cial depression which has occurred
during the interim, the price of cot
ton has nevertheless shown 2c or 3c
a pound less than it would have had
the machinery of markets been in
good working order and not hampered
by such laws.
It is axiomatic that if enough of
any staple article is offered in the
open market at whatever price the
.market will pay, the price of that
staple will defcline. It is equally obvi
ous, if enough offers to buy that
staple at whatever price the owners
demand are sent into the open mar
ket, the price of that staple will ad
vance. It is apparent that the mar
ket has been robbed of the buying
power, through the contract .market,
of those people in the South who,
cotton merchant.
while possibly not directly in the cot
ton business, were sufficiently cogniz
ant of the situation to buy “specula
tively” enough of the product to fur
nish a stable hedge market for the
those speculatively inclined from
lending any assistance and they were
unwilling to enter into competition
with the cotton merchant, who, left
to his own devices, was willing to
buy the spot article as cheaply as
possible and leave himself a much
larger range of profit'than was usual.
This declining tendency of cotton dur
ing the year 1907 was all the more
remarkable when it is noted that the
While
Shopping
Just
Glance in
Window
producers were waging an aggres
sive campaign of holding for higher
prices and that the spinners actually
consumed 2,500,000 bales more than
the world produced, under which con
ditions, with speculative aid, much
better prices might have resulted.
During this same period of lime
America has had an object lesson in
another way—-the high prices for
grain, with legitimate speculation be
hind it, and a section where state
legislatures not only did not repri
mand legitimate institutions, but ap
proved of them, at the same time
passing stringent bucket-shop laws,
such as in the state of Missouri,
lowa, Indiana. Michigan, Massachu
setts, Pennsylvania and New York.
The business acumen of his Yankee
brother has been admitted by the
southerner for many years, and in
pure business light the southerner
has heretofore been wiling to accept
the inbred knowledge of financial af
fairs that brings results from a more
energetic people. This question, how
ever, has seemed to have been a
good platform for politicians. Mr.
Calvin’s article is merely a forerun
ner of the many expressions of simi
lar character which will follow when
sanity and the courage to acknowl
edge error tare quality) return to
others who were so vigorous in urg
ing the passage of these laws; in
fact, the politicians now in Washing
ton and those who are aspiring to
office in the southern states would
do well to interview carefully their
constituency as to their real feeling
in regard to the anti-future and anti
trust laws that have harassed the
southern half of the United -States to
such an extent that they give echo to
violent expression of niglit riding and
other lawlessness and have stopped
the development and growth of that
part of the country to a great extent.
That cotton is a staple of great
importance to our whole country Is
not questioned, and that the present
prices offer no inducement or remun
eration to the producer is equally
true. That the spinner is probably
making the same error against, na
tional prosperity, of cutting off the
hand to cure the sore, in being will
ing to take advantage of the crip
pled condition of the farmer, due to
his poverty and his ignorant politi
cians, there is also good reason to
believe. ‘
With a practical monopoly of the
cotto> crop of the world—remem
bering that the India crop is but a
poor substitute for the American crop
and that the Egyptian crop does not
enter into the same quality of goods
that cotton of the American crop
does—there is no reason why Am
erica should not be able to dictate
the prices of her own commodity, but
to do so it must be in the open mar
ket, in which every man having stu
died, understood and comprehending
the commercial value of the article,
is willing to help it to a higher level
with every artifice known to modern
commerce, and the crux of these is
the idea embodied in ftfture trading,
looking into the future and analyzing
conditions which will exist weeks and
mdnt’hs ahead.
A petition tvas circulated in the
city of Gainesville, Texas, recently
and it one day ieceived 176 signa
tures of merchants, bankers and cot
ton people asking for the repeal of
the laws against speculation in that
st,ate, and what is true of Gaines
ville is also true of every other vil
lage of that size. The thinking peo
ple are beginning to realize their er
ror and it can only be a question
of a short time until every southern
state has begun to extend a hand of
friendly welcome to all who are will
ing to speculate in her great staple
and help sustain its price.
Politicians are prone to speak of
bears depressing prices, when, as a
matter of fact, the only manipulated
market which leaves for any great
length of time the true relation be
tween supply and demand is a mar
ket in which bullish manipulation ex
ists. Bear manipulation in any mar
ket is but the phantasy of a moment,
and the world is quick in discovering
when bargain sales are on.
He who sells what isn’t hls’n
Must dig it up or go to prison.
It is to be hoped that Texas and
other Southern states will lend a
thoughtful ear to the remarks of Mr.
Calvin. That he meant well one can
no longer doubt, as it takes manhood
to stand up in public and confess that
he has erred. His ideas at that time
led many thousands of his followers
into the error, and he now realizes
this and is endeavoring to rectify It
The experience of Texas and the ex
perience of Germany are identical.
Georgia, the Carolinas, Alabama,
i Mississippi, Arkansas and Oklahoma
j should each in time rescind the laws
that now stand on their books and
j place in their stead real anti-bucket
| shop laws, which will suppress the
( evil of speculation through budket
i shops, which speculation does not
j help shape prices.
: It Is pointed out that now is the
[time for the representatives from the
! various districts In Washington that
; have been seriously hurt by this leg
iislation to offer remedies for the
•wrongs that have been done. The
honest intent of these statesmen that
'have presented bills in Washington
cannot be questioned. They thought
they were serving their constituency
i and they wanted to crush the gigan
-11 ic evil of the bucket-shops that has
robbed the public of millions and mil
lions of dollars and that has robbed
j the producer of an “open market.”
Many of these men, in presenting
these bills, wanting to destroy this
evil, were not familiar enough with
the general trade of buying and sell
ing commodities for future delivery
on legitimate exchanges, and have
' mentally put them all In the same
class with the bucket-shops, but if
, they should Inform themselva* Th this
regard and pass such laws that will
[ legalize legitimate trade and insist
' upon brokers furnishing confirmations
I showing of whom they bought the
! property, and that the trades were
made in the actual market, where
competitive buying and selling were
I indulged in. they will wipe out the
1 evil they are seeking. The best defi
nition cf a bucket-shop is the one ex
: pressed by Senator Spooner, wlfieh is
as follows;
"A bucket-shop is an office or other
| place kept or maintained, by a person,
association, copartnership or corpora
i tlon, who or tvhich shall, in his, its,
or their own behalf, or as agent, en
gage in the business cf making or
| offering to make contracts, agree
ments, trades, or transactions re
specting the purchase or sale, or pur
chase and sale, or any grain, provis
ions, raw or unmanufactured cotton,
j stocks, bonds, or other securities.
I wherein both parties thereto or such
persons, association, copartnership, or
| corporation above named, contem-
I plate or intend that such contracts,
; agreements, trades, or transactions
| shall be or may be closed, adjusted,
!or settled according or with refer
j ence to the public market quotations,
or securities referred to in said con
| tracts, agreements, trades, or trans
| actions are dealt in, and without a
i bona fide transaction on such board
1 of trade or exchange, or wherein both
; parties, or such persons, association,
J copartnership or corporation above
named, shall contemplate or intend
j that such contracts, agreements,
- trades, or transactions shall be or
! may be deemed closed or terminated
when the public market quotations or
prices made on such board of trade
ior exchange for the articles or secu
rities named in such contracts, agree
jments, trades or transactions shall
reach a certain figure."
j Another authority says a bucket
shop is a place where the proprietor
acts as principal and agent, in direct
i violation of all law's of states and
the commonwealth.
It is hoped by those who have stud
jied this subject that, for the general
good of the country, Washington will
Ido something before adjournment of
j this congress to pass laws that will
• drive out the buckest-shops and pro
ject the business transacted on legiti.
j mate exchanges, which at the same
itirne would be a protection to the
! public. One step in this direction
| suggested is a law' that would pro
; hibit telegraph companies from sup
j plying exchange quotations to buck
et-shops and their so-called correspon
dents.
