CURE GUARANTEED

Patients will be received and treated promptly, and not one cent will be required for treatment until the patients say that all desire and craving for theeir former habit is destroyed. The patients should remain though very few do) under the observation and direction of the doctor for a week or more. The treatment can be given in secrecy, and is so mild that the most delicate have taken it with little or no suffering. In fact, the patient hardly realizes that he is under treatment until he finds himself cured and full of joy at his liberation from the most exacting and cruel masters that ever dominated a slave. Dr. Westmoreland has neveY failed to relieve all of the great number that have taken his remedy for these ens1aving hab- its or diseases Why would any one con- tinue in bondage when he is guaranteed q cure? How could any physician devote his entire time to this one speciality and make this proposition, unless he knows he can cure you?
 No one that is addicted to any of these dreadful diseases or habits should fail to avail himself of this great opportunity of being cured at once of these, the greatest affictions that mortal ever had For fur ther information call on or address

COLOR QUESTION DROPPED

Milwaukee, Wis, June 6.-The issue of the day before the General Federation of Wo- mems Clubs, which was reorganization, will not come to a vote before early tomor- row. It was discussed both at the morning and afternoon sessions today, the drift of the argument being in favor of the majority report of the committee on reorganization, which report recommends but little change in the former organization. Those opposed to reorganization desire the continued rec ognition of individual club instead of na- tional federation up to state federations only.
 The chances are the color question will hot be pushed to a public controversy unless Mrs. Josephine Ruffin, the colored delegate, chooses to do so individually The Mas sachusetts delegation said today that it had sent it's protest to the board of direct DTS and would abide by its decision. In the meantime, no less than eight state deleSa- tions have sent similar protests to the board The southern women, on the other hand, have sent a resolution to the board of directors asking that some action be taken in the near future which will render the sending of another colored delegate to the congress impossible They furthermore said that no matter if the board should de-

Work on the Two Cotton Mills is Well
 Under Way

Anniston, June 6.-(Special.) )-Work on two of Anniston's new cotton mills is well under way, and the contract for the erec- tion of the third will be awarded in few days, or as soon as the plans and specif- cations have been approved All three of the mills, the combined cost of which will be about $30O,000, will be built during the summer months, and all three are to be in operation next fall. The machinery for them has all been ordered, and work on the buildings will be rushed in order to have them ready for the machinery when 1t arrives.
 The work of building the three new mills will give employment during the summer to a, large number of workmen, and added to the other building contracts under way in this city, there is something very like a building boom on here The passage by the senate of the bill appropriating S0,NO for government building in this city will still further increase the building activity, as it is pretty well assured that the gov ernment building will be built during this summer
