After inspecting very thoroughly the
several building sites to be rendered
for the new pOstoffice, Mr.. Fred Brack-
EFT, the representative of the Treasury
Department sent to Americas for that
purpose, completed the task Yesterday
and left for Washington.
Every opportunity was offered Mr..
Bracket for seeing the city and study
ing the situation thoroughly, and he
expressed himself as well pleased with
his visit to Americas.
After spending a day here he left at
noon to inspect postoffice sites in other
Georgia cities.
Despite the dOwnpour Of rain, Mr..
Bracket was taken upon a carriage
drive over the city in order that he
might see it's size and Importance, as
well as to take in the environment of
the several eligible sites thus offered to
the Government.
Mayor E. A. Hawkins, Messrs w. A.
Dodson and A. w. Smith accompanied
Mr.. Bracket upon the drive.
This included the entire residence
section out Lee, Taylor, College and
Jackson streets, all over the northern
part of the city and to Brooklyn
Heights. Mr.. Bracket is a close OBJ
server and noted carefully the course of
the city's growth.
During his stay at The Windsor he
was called upon by delegations of prom
inent citizens and business men who
i expressed a decided preference as to
site of the proposed building, and while
he heard all, of coarse expressed no
personal opinion.
Mr. Bracket will make his report to
the treasury department, recommend
ing one of the sites thus rendered,
and some decisive action in the prem
Uses is expected shortly.

SCIENCE PREVENTS BADNESS.
The Fatal Germ and Its Remedy Now
Facts OF Science.

It is the rarest thing in the world for
q man to be necessarily bald. No man
whose hair is not dead at the roots, need
be bald if he will use Newbro's Herpi-
eide, the new scalp antiseptic. Herpi-
eide destroys the germ that cuts the hair
off at the root; and cleans the scalp of
dandrdff and leaves it in perfectly
healthy condition. Mr.. Mannett, in the
Maryland Block, Butte, Mont, was en-
tirely bald. In less than month Herpi-
eide had removed the enemies of hair
growth, and nature did it's work by COW
ering his head with thick hair an inch
long, and in six weeks he had normal
