nnes Your Baby Chnre9

A chafe on an infant is not only exceed
ingly painful Co the little one, buta source
of constant worry TO the mother who has
to care for il in warm weather. 1t is a
constant drain on the nervous system OF
both. The dear little one cannot sleep
when it suffers, nor can its mother. Why
not secure the quickest and most effectual
relief in existence. Quratol is never
falling cure for chafes of both infants and
adults, and fleshy people VIII find it "a
great comfort in summer. Try it and you
will never be without it.
Mr. John w. Cherry, ex-niembsr of the
legislature, says he had been troubled
about three years with q severe chafe and
had tried many remedies, with only tenn
porary relief. He tried Quratol and was
cured He thinks Quratol the best prep
aration on the market He has also tried
it for chafe on his infant with the most
satisfactory results.
Mr. Ira T. Eolt, of 155 Duke street, Nor
folk, prominent Red Man and Pythian,
says: ~ AVE used Quratol on my baby
for chatting. have used talcum powder,
but | consider the effect of Quratol better;
in fact it is the best remedy have ever
used for this purpose and l do not hesitate
TO recommend it"

To the energy, enthusiasm and genius
of Mr.. Charles A Collier, president and
director general, the Atlanta exposition
Of 1895 will, more than to any other
man, owe its success. He was born in
Atlanta AZ years ago, played as boy
in vacant fields now covered with state
" business structures, handsome resi-
dences and busy public buildings; passed
his youth amid the scenes of the civil
war; took the collegiate training afford
ed by the University of Georgia, and
was admitted to the bar in 1871. After
some years of devotion TO the legal pro-
sfession he entered mercantile life, and
his success in this and the field of finan-
ciering has been notable. He was the
protector Of the first Piedmont exposi-
ton, and it was very largely to his eff
forts that its remarkable success was
due. But 104 days were left after the
enterprise was agreed upon before the
fair was To open, but so rapid and sure
were the operations directed by Mr..
Collier that everything was ready when
the gates were opened, and the enterprise
proved winner from the first day 10
the last, completely performing the
functions for which il was organized
viz, exploiting throughout the country
the enterprise Of Atlanta and the re-
sources of the south

and other villages, and, in fact, about
every sort of attraction that the mind

ing the continuance of the exposition
AT first blush il may not occur TO You,
reader. that this is a very important sign
of public interest. but il is, since moth
ing but continuous talking of the COM
ing Atlanta show by the people all along
the line could induce the tent shOwmen
20 travel in such numbers toward this
one point.
There is now every reason ~ conclude
that the Atlanta exposition will be a
really great affair. In the first place, it
will represent the investment of consid-
erably more than So, 900, 600. and this
vast sum is being laid out most judici-
ously and with such economy, if the
term may be used. as to produce the
very best and most striking results. 1t
is hoped by the Atlantans themselves
that their show will be larger and supe-
rior in every way to any previous expo
sition ever held i'll the United States,
barring only the Worlds fairs at Phila-
delphia and Chicago. Certainly those in
charge have bent all their energies to-
ward producing this laudable result,
and the popular interest in the projectais
well indexed by the fact that every Sun
day people visit the grounds in such
large numbers to inspect the work and
comment upon the progress made that
the trolley cars are crowded beyond all
precedent This weekly visit to the ex-
POSITIONS site has now become so gen.
eral that most other Sunday resorts OF
Atlanta are practically deserted, greatly
to the discontinue of their proprietors.
The selection of the Piedmont Driv-
ing park as the site of the exposition
was undoubtedly an exceedingly wise
move since the driving park grounds
are spacious, accessible and of great nat
ural beauty. To this latter feature the
exposition authorities are adding mate
rally by laying out driveways, creating
artificial sheets of water and plant
ing many ornamental shrubs and trees.
The buildings, as is plainly discernible
even now, will be of a most impressive
and really satisfactory character. The
gates will open ON Sept IS and remain
open for 80 days. An average daily at
tendance of 10, 900 at 90 cents admission
fee will hardly pay all the cost, but an
attendance of $4,000 will leave mar
gin, and of course every effort will be
made to bring it up to those figures.
The railroads centering at Atlanta are
doing all in their power to assist in this.
Only one of them, however-the South
ern, with its thousands of miles of track
extending all through the south-will
be allowed the privilege of entering the
grounds with its tracks. But all the
great railroads have agreed upon uni
form fare of cent a mile, and besides
the steamship lines along the Atlantic
coast have made special concessions, and
the Pacific Mail and Steamship company
has agreed to transport the exhibits of
Central and South America from and to
all points reached by its lines and to
make reductions i'll fares to government
officials and others who desire to visit
the fair.
At present the energies of the mana
gers are centering upon the buildings.

Miss Elsie Mercur of PittShurg, and its
erection has been rendered possible by
the untiring efforts of Mrs Joseph
Thompson of Atlanta, president OF the
board Of lady managers. The Art build

lately been studied and reported upon
BIZ Mr.. Lake. an English engineer IN

language is called the ''Pantang Ka-

by the natives and all others who are
engaged in gathering the product OF the
Malayan camphor tree and only at that
time. If they used either of the Ian
guages of the region, the Malay or the
aboriginal Jakun, the natives believe
that they could not obtain any camphor,
and for a most curious reason. The cam
phor tree, Dryoblanops camphora, grows
abundantly in certain parts of the pc
ninsula, but only occasionally contains
camphor crystals. The caInphor Is not
the same as that obtained from the cam
