WAIT FOR HUNGER.

Good Advice from the Peoples Drug
Store as to How to Create Appetite.
Any physician will tell you that it
is unwise to eat unless one IS really
hungry. 1t is far better to miss a
meal than to eat without appetite.
But do not take a tonic, stimulant
or appetizer to make you hungry
Dawson Drug Co. and Peoples Drug
Store say that the best way to create
an appetite is to restore the digestion
to health by the use of Mona stomach
tablets, a reliable remedy that they
sell with best satisfaction.
When Mi-o-na is used the irritation
and Inflammation of the stomach coat
ing will be soothed the gastric folli-
Giles will be strengthened so that they
will pour out the natural digestive
fluids with regularity, and the food
you eat will be perfectly digested
without distress. All headaches,
sleeplessness, specks before the eyes,
poor appetite, tired feelings, nervous
ness, backaches and other troubles
caused by poor digestion will disar-
pear, and you will feel we'll all over.
A large box of Mi-O-na tablets is
sold sold for so cents by Dawson Drug
Co. and Peoples Drug Store, and it
is so successful and reliable in curing
indigestion and other stomach troub-
les, with the exception of cancer of
the stomach, that they sell it under a
guarantee that the money will be re-
funded unless it does all that is claim
ed for it.
If you have any stomach weakness
here is an opportunity to be cured
without risking a cent yourself.

! The democrats of Minnesota are

congressional districts this fall, but
the republicans are not worrying

Neither do conditions in Indiana,

Both the congressional campaign

chary in the future about placing

FACTIONS FAIL TO AGREE
NEITHER COMMITTEE WANTS TO
QUIT BUSINESS IN FULTON.
Details of the Attempt of Sub-Com-
mittee to Settle the Dispute Be-
tween the Atlanta Fuedists.

mITtee TO SeIJIC TIC DiSPuIN
tween the Atlanta Fuedists.
The subcommittee from the state
democratic executive committee, APP
pointed by Chairman M. j. Yeomans,
to investigate the troubles between the
two executive committees of Fulton
county, and determine which of them
should be recognized by the state
committee, after holding session for
two days adjourned to meet again
June 10 without accomplishing any
thing of consequence.
Four members of the committee
we're on hand, there being w. W.
Stark of Commerce, j. B. Burnside
of Hamilton, S. 7. BlalOck of Fay
etteville and Frank Park of Sylves-
ter. The only absentee was w. &.
Bum of Cedartown, who for bust
ness reasons was unable to be present.
Both committees were represented by
delegations. What is known as the
Howell committee was headed by
Tom Fielder, chairman; Charles T..
Hopkins and Albert Howell, and the
Hoke smith committee by Joseph e..
Maddox, chairman; Reuben Arnold
and Luther Rosser. With the view of
making some sort of compromise or
middle ground upon which the two
factions could meet and settle their
differences amicably, propositions
were submitted, but no agreementcould
be reached. The Howell faction pro-
posed a settlement of the dispute by
relocating both committees to the
rear, and holding a county primary
within thirty days, at which new
committee could be elected. This sug-
gestion was turned down by the Hoke
Smith committee, which committee
proposed to have a primary, but to
hold it on the same day that the state
primary was held. 1t was suggested
that by doing this the expense of the
primary could be avoided. Mr.. Hop
kins met this objection by stating that
the friends of Clark Howell would
agree to defray all of the expenses of
the early primary, and call upon the
supporters of Hoke Smith 10 put up
no money whatsoever upon this ac-
count.
This proposition the Hoke Smith
faction turned down fatty. AS it
seemed impossible to get the two com.
mittees together upon any basis OF
equity the subcommittee then went
into executive session. Two of the
members of the committee, Burnsides
and Starke, favored bringing the is
sue to a head by deciding which OF
the two committees was legally elect
ed. while the other two, Blalock and
Park. wanted to look into the evidence
that had been submitted.
After some time wrangling upon
this question the committee finally
agreed to adjourn until June 10, at
which time another effort will be
made to settle the dispute between the
two executive committees of Fulton
county, and decide which OF the two
was entitled to recognition by Chair
man Yeomans of the state committee.

Five million foreign bugs are to be

moths that have been giving Boston

of the summer girls and give the vic

got to go. AS long as the moths
didn't interfere with the comfort of the

peekaboo waists became fashionable,

James S. Sherman Of New YORK

chairmen respectively OF the re-
publican and democratic congress
sional committees, are getting ready
TO open the active campaign as soon
as congress adjourns.
While the republicans have ma
iority in the present house in eX-
cess of one hundred members, and
are therefore reasonably eXpectant
of retaining control in the siXtieth
congress, they intend to take no
chances. There are unmistakable
sions of discomfort in a number OF
republican strongholds, and dozens
of members who were swept into
Office by the momentum OF the
Roosevelt landslide two years ago
are not certain of reelection next
November.
With the possible exception OF
Massachusetts the republicans are
not apprehensive over conditions IN
the east. The people of Massachu-
sets will be treated to a feast OF
oratory this year The most finish
ed spellbinders of both parties will
tour the state of Massachusetts and
probably will be the most tiercely
debated ground of any state in the
union.
Republicans are just little con-
cerned over conditions in number
of western states that heretofore
have been considered stronghOlds
of their party. Practically every
congressman in Wisconsin will
have sharp opposition for renomi-
nation this fall. The factiOnal war
between LaFollette and Spooner
plays no small part in the trouble,
and the LaFollette men are endeav-
oring, by securing the defeat OF
congressman who favor SpOOner, to
make the people believe that the
senior senator has lost his influence.
For some years LaFOllette has been
after the scalp of Representative
Babcock, former chairman of the
republican congressional committee.
His pursuit of Mr. Babcock is keen
er this year than ever before. Two
years ago LaFollette threw his sup
port to Babcock's democratic OPP
ponent, and he probably will do
likewise in the coming campaign.
The only Wisconsin congressman
who, from present appearances,
will have little trouble in returning
are Esch of the Seventh district,
Davidson of the Eighth, and Minor
of the Ninth. The rest will have to
look closely after their fences.
Outlook in Michigan
In Michigan there are no issues
of national character that prom
ises results for the democrats.
Practically all thecongressmen now
in Office are assured of renomina-
ton. The only cloud on the repub-
lican horizon is the growing senti-
