A Wide Open Letter to that Greet hrmy Of

FREE TO EVERYONE.
A Priceless Book Sent Free for the A

A Priceless Book Sent Free for the Asking.
''There are books and books some edi-
flying, others entertaining, and still others
instructive. The average man is so busily
engaged in the labor of money-making
that he has little time and less inclination
for books which instruct; hence when he
feels out of sorts, either he gives no heeJ
to Natures warning, or he consultS phy-
sician, at an expense which little know
ledge would have enabled him to avoid.
There is probably no complaint upon
which the public is so little informed as
hemorrhoids, or piles; this little book
tells all about their nature, cause, and
cure; it treats of the different forms of
blind, bleeding, itching and protruding
piles, describes their symptoms, and points
the way to cure so simple and ineXpen-
sive that anyone can understand and ap-
ply. The Importance of prOmptness and
thoroughness is vital, for the disease will
not cure itself, and Nature, alone, unaided,
will not accomplish a cure, while the con-
sequences are too painful for detailed de-
scription. You are told how piles orig
mate, the reason for their appearance usu-
ally being that some of the rules of correct
living have been violated, and twhat is
more to the point how you may rid your
self of this bane of human existence. All
affections of the rectum are treated in SIM
pie plain language, so that all may under.
stand and learn how the cause may be
removed. Many people suffer from piles
because after trying the numerous lotions,
ointments and salves that are on the mar
ket, without relief, they come to the con-
clusion that a surgical operation II the
only thing left to try. and rather than
submit to the shock and risk to life of an
operation, prefer to suffer on. This little
book tells hom this may be avoided. and
a cure be effected without pain. inconven-
ience or detention from business. Write
your name and address plainly ON postal
card. mail to the Pyramid Drug Co., Mar
shall, Mich, and you will receive the book
by return mail.

Sewell. United States Senator from
New Jersey, when DR.. Taylor, the
family physician, in speaking of the
senator's death this afternoon, said:
HE would have probably lived many
years with diabetes had he not gone
abroad, but Carlsbad had always
helped him before, and it was there
that he went for relief again. 1t was
there that he contracted the pneu-
monia trouble, and this, with the dia-
betes he already had, resulted in a
complication that medical skill proved
unable to cope with"
Thereupon DR.. w. H. Morse, the
American director of the Bureau Of
Materia Medica, said:
THAT meets my argument for Su-
vance Springs. I published a good
word for them five years ago, and I
continue to maintain that in every
way the water is the equal of Carlsbad
or any other The Springs are easy of
access, and the psychic influences of
change of scenery and climate are
wonderful. There are no chill winds to
cause pneumonia, and no malaria. My
advice is to send all patients with kid

let Carlsbad take care of itself. Springs
equal in every way to the most aristo-
cratic in Europe, need our apprecia-
ton, and they are getting it."

Valdosta, Ca, Feb. 4.-For the next
two days Valdosta will be in the throes
of a municipal contest, the white pri-
mary being held next Friday and the
election on the following Monday. VAL
dosta is the home of the white pri-
mary, having adopted that system in
selecting municipal officers over ten
years ago. Heretofore mass meetings
have been held in the Court House,
and tickets put in the field, but the
town has outgrown the mass-meeting.
and an all-day primary will be held
this year The question has hardly
been thought of here up to the present
and the Executive Committee did not
make its call for the primary until to-
day. 1t is understood that the present
Mayor, and most of the aldermen will
accept their offices again, and there
may be one or two candidates for al
dermen brought out before Friday. The
municipal campaign here never lasts
over two days, and all of the factions
get together for the good of the town
as soon as the election is held. 1t
WILL therefore be impossible to tell be-
fore Thursday evening or Friday morn
ing how the states are arranged.

ON REAL ESTATEg
There are men who are now buying
real estate in Savannah who, a few
years ago. could not be persuaded to
give respectful hearing to any propo-
sition in which real estate was a fac
tor. More money has been made upon
real estate in the last twelve months
than on any other commodity that is
bought and sold. Those who fail to
make money fail because their judg-
ment is deficient They don't trust
themselves or anybody else-"failure
to recognize opportunity" What one
can do others can do also. Follow the
crowd-join the procession.
If you cannot get in a syndicate to
buy ten blocks buy one block, or. one
lot for yourself.
Lots are steadily advancing in the
southeastern section. At one time
they were bought for seventy-five dol
lars each. Steadily they have ad-
vanced beyond two hundred dollars
each. Do you want to participate in
