READY TO GIVE ALL
A HOME IN GEORGIA.
Big Scheme to Bring People
Here.
WILL AID MOVEMENT
Meeting Will Be Held in Atlanta Soon
for Purpose of Effecting oreaniza-
tlon With View of Inducing People
to Settle in State.

The people of Americas and of this
entire section are interested in the sue
cess of the "Greater Georgia Associ-
atioD," the name of an organic 4tion
that is to be formed soon with the view
of bringing desirable immigrants to
this state, inducing the Investment Ct
capital from all parts of the country,
aud generally tend to the development
of all the industrial resources in the
state.
The organization meeting, the Sa-
vannah News states, will be held in
Atlanta on Tuesday, February 18th.
How widespread is the interest in the
movement, not only among the people
generally, those who have heard of it,
but among the business concerts as
well, especially the railroads, is shown
by the granting of rate of one fare from
all competitive, points, plus 25 cent?,
given by every road of Importance in
the state.
Both the Central and the Seaboard
are, of course, included in the list Of
roads granting a one fare round trip
rate, and delegations representing
Americus and this section will attend
the meeting.
The tickets, on sale at all competitive
points, will be sold for trains leaving
starting points after noon of February
10th, and for trains of February 17tb,
with final limit February 18Th. 1t is
hoped end expected to have large at
tendance at this meeting.
The railroads, especially, are desir
Gus of having delegations attend from
every county IN the state.
The organization wishes to establish
in Chicago an exhibit of Georgia's ag
ricuIt ural and manufactured products
To enable this to be done each county
of the state is to be asked to furnish
$500 and all who comply with this re-
quest are to be allowed an exhibit of
each kind. For the best in each class
a series of prizes will be offered.
These exhibits are to be placed in
quarters in Chicago, and used to inter
est both emIgrants and capitalists, he
one to move to this state, the other TO
invest their money in the development
of its industries. To further this plan
each county that sends exhibits will be
requested also to send maps and de-
scriptions of such land as may be for
sale.
When q sufficient number of emf;
grants and capitalists have been inter
ested they may be taken on tour of
inspection through the state with
view to settling and investing.

The Mysterious Visitor
Is Now Invading Many Homes.
1t Strikes Houng and Old Who
IRE Physically WeaA and
2realsposoa to Disease.
Paine's Celery
Compound
FOrtifies the Body, Cleases the
Blood, and Gives Strength to
Resist All Attacks.

That mysterious visitor, "Grip," is
now invading many homes and strik
ing down the young and old who are
weak or predisposed to disease.
It is now we'll known that the disease
spreads rapidly to the various mem
bers of the Households into which it
has been introduced. It accords with
the theory of infection, also that the
disease has usually attacked the per
sons liable to infection DR.. Richard
SiselY, in his book on Epidemic In
fuenza, says the disease is almost en-
tirely propegated by infection.
In past winter seasons it has been
fully and happily demonstrated that
Paines Celery Compound is tower of
safety when grip is prevalent. When
his scientific and health giving medi-
cine 1s used, 1t strengthens the uer-
Vous centres of all the vital organs; it
purifies the blood, regulates digestion,
gives healthy tone to the whole sys-
TEN, enabling young and old to feel
secure from the ravages of disease.
Weak, nervous, dyspeptic, and ailing
people will find in Paine's Celery
Compound true protector and shield
from the dangers of grip. A trial of
one bottle will Danish all existing
doubts.

REGULAR MEETING OF COUNCIL
Matters Disposed of at Last Nights
Session.

1t was an unpleasant night upon
which to venture out, even to save the
country, but despite the weather the
city council met as usual last night and
all were ready for business when His
Honor called the august body to order
and the clerk began reading the min
utes Of last meeting.
The session was lengthy, as usual,
though little was really done.
Various reports of committees were
received and adopted, the reading of
which consumed considerable time.
The report Of the city sexton showed
four interments in Oakgrove Gene,
terry for January, two of them of per-
sons residing outside the city.
Mesgrs. Wallis and Dodson asked of
council the extension of sanitary sew
erage on Forrest street. The matter

thorized to assume his new duties this

oath. Clerk Mon ath, who is serving
temporarily, will continue to assist Mr..
Hawkes. until the expiration of his
month of service next Tuesday.
Mr.. @. j. Hawkins was formally
elected assistant superintendent of
waterworks for the current year.
n thing was done by council rela-
tive 10 the proposed increase in the po-
lice force, in authorizing the commits
sion to elect two additional men, and
'he matter goes over for the present.
1t Is hardly likely now, it is said, that
the force will thus be increased before

The Easv Pill.

DeWittss Little Early Risers do not
grippe nor weaken the system. They
cure billiousness, iaundice, constipation
and inactive livers, by arousing the Sc
cretions, moving the bowels gently, yet
etfectually, and giving such tone and
strength to the glands of the stomach,
liver and bowels that the cause of the
trouble is removed entirely. These fam
GUS little pills exert decided tonic eff.
feet upon the organs involved, and il
their use is continued for a few days
there will be no return of the trouble.
