WHAT A BLESSING!
Many People in Albuquerque Are
Learning to Appreciate.


What a blessing II IS.
Sought after by thousands.
Albuquerque is finding it out.
Many a miserable man is happy now.
Nights of unrest, days of trouble.
Any itching skin disease means this.
Itching piles mea it.
Eczema just as bad and just as bad
to cure.
But Doan's Ointment relieves at once
and cures all itchiness of the skin.
A blessing to a suffering public.
Here's Albuquerque proof to back
our statement:
John Torlina, capitalist, of $50 South
Third street, says: Il know of a
case where Doan's Ointment vas sue
~cessfully used for hemorrhoids, COM
monty called piles. If did not know
that the remedy acted exactly as rep
resented and that the results obtained
by others in Albuquerque are as posi-
tive as in the particular case referred
to above | would be the last resident of
this city to advise my friends and ac-
quaintances to go to Alvarado Phar-
macy for the preparation If they re-
quire IT,"

A Bio PLAY.

The future book being made by b. J..
Weller & Co., of Chicago, is getting
a terrific play. Savable, Dick Welles,
Top Soil and Won Rouse are getting
the bigger share of attention. The
other day Steve L'Hommedieu, the
plunger, sought Kid Weller in his of.
flee in the Mallers building, Chicago,
Take a bet, Kid?' asked the
F%Eenchman.
yes, Stephen" returned Weller,
that's what I'm here for. What do
you like?"
Charley Ellison's colt" answered
L'Hommedieu.
How much do you like him,
Stephen" queried Weller.
Bet you a thousand straight, place
and show"
Weller looked at his list, saw that
Skilful was being held at 80, Is and s.
Then he turned to his ticket writer
and dictated:
"Skilful, $50 5000 to $1,000; $4,000
to $1,000; $4,000 to $1,000"
This ticket, calling for $53 900 to
~ 900, was passed over TO L'Homme-
dieu, who in turn passed over three
$1,000 bills.
L'Hommedieu and Weller then left
the Mallers building and adjourned to
an adjoining cafe, where the pair had
a drink over the transaction.

Some may think this urid picture, but say to you,

The Savannah morning news., 1903-02-14
THE MOVEMENT OF THE MER-
CHANTS.

At its meeting yesterday the Retail
Merchants Association decided to do
two things, namely, to invite all of
the other organizations connected with
the business of the city to join with
it in it's movement for the city's up
building and the increase of trade, and
also to invite Mr.. Andrew Carnegie to
visit the city while he is in this state.
Both of these things are commend
able. All of the other organizations
connected with the citys trade and
business should be in the movement in
which the Retail Merchants Associa-
ton is engaged All the forces of the
city should work together in that move
ment. Each business will be benefited
by the city's increase in wealth and
population, and therefore each should
lend a helping hand in the effort to
bring about the promotion of the city's
welfare. In unity and harmony there
is strength. Doubtless the organiza-
tions that were invited yesterday had
felt that they had been over
looked in a matter in which
they are almost as deeply in
terested as is the organiza-
ton which inaugurated the movement.
The object in inviting Mr.. Carnegie
is to let him see the advantages which
Savannah possesses as place in which
to make investments. 1t is not expect
ed of course that Mr.. Carnegie will
make investments. 1t is known that
he is out of business, and is not seek
ing investments, but he is coming in
contact all the time with men who are
seeking them, and a word from him
on occasions might do the city vast
amount of good.
The report which was made by Mr..
Jackson's committee, the report in ia
vor of a bureau of publicity, is likely
to meet with much favor.> Mr.. jack
sons idea is a good one. We cannot
get too much information scattered
abroad concerning our city. And there
are always inquiries from parties seek
ing homes or sites for business or fac
tory establishments. The proposed bu-
reau therefore would undoubtedly an
swer a good purpose.

A New Memher.s Mndestv.

The new members of Congress who
will make their debut next December
unless an extra session should sum-
mon them here sooner are beginning
to logroll for committee positions,
says the Philadelphia Ledger. A new
Michigan member, who is said to be
one of the best known lawyers of that
commonwealth, has been trying,
through an old friend, now a member
of the House, to get himself fixed"
for the work of the next session. The
old member received a letter from the
member-elect to-day, relating to COM
mittee assignments and suggesting
the disposition he wished to be made
of his own talents.
81 prefer" said the member elect,
that first you would present my
claims to recognition as a member of
Ways and Means. If by any fact of
previous allotment of places on that
committee to others it should become
necessary to ask for something equal
ly as good, please see to it that 1 go
on Appropriations After that 1 would
like to get on Rivers and Harbors. l
shall rely on your kindly offices to
land some one of the three places 1
have mentioned"
The old member in reply sent the
