APRONS SAYS THAT
BUSINESS IS HERE

Alfred E. Aarons, general manage
for the big Klaw & Erlanger interests,
dropped in yesterday to pay visit to
Homer George, local representative
ard manager of the Atlanta theatre.
Mr. Aarons was splendidly pleased
with the patronage the Atlanta thea,
ire is getting this year, and with ev-
erything else in Atlanta. He says this
is the Invest city of it's size in America,
and that it is way ahead of st. Louis,
which he has just visited, in enthus-
iasm and civic spirit.
The Atlanta theatre is one of the on
ly two Klak & Erlanger houses in the
South and has been giving Atlanta a
magnificent lot of shows this winter.

knowledge of inestimable worth, and
this Is particularly true of the dis
eases and ills of the human body. If
you suffer with kidney backache, urin-
airy disorders, or any form of kidney
trouble, the advice contained In the
following statement should add a
valuable asset to your store of knowl-
edge. What could be more convinc-
ing proof of the efficiency of Doan's
Kidney Pills than the statement of an
Americas citizen who used them and
who publicly tells of the benefit de-
rived?
J. T. Bragg. 705 Hancock St., Amer
icus, says "Sometimese eaefter being
on my feet a good deal, | have mad a
dull ache across the small of my back.
AT times there are irregularities of the

Kidney Pills on more than one occas-
ion and have always had relief. They
rid me of the attacks of backache ana
put my kidneys in a normal condition. 4"

Dr.. Emory r. Park Gines Out a
Statement On Health of The
People And Some Remedies

time as a result of continuing to dis
regard the warnings of physicians in
regard to avoiding unnecessary ex-
posure.
Why is it that some succumb to
contagion and death and others defy
all known health laws and continue to
live to a ripe old age? Simply because
immunity to disease varies with diff
ferent people. Every one is born with
a certain amount of power to resist
disease. Were it not for this fact, the
human race would have been wiped
eff the face of the earth centuries ago
This natural immunity, however, is
greater in some individuals than in
others, and varies in each individual
at different times. knowing this, then,
we can readily understand why sever
al people may e exposed to a con-
tagious disease at the same time and
yet maybe none or only one or two of
these contract the disease And know
il g that immunity varies in the same
Individual at different times, we can
understand why a person might resist
infection at one time and later sue
c'rmb to it.
After contracting a disease the sew
Gritty of symptoms will depend, first,
on how much natural resistance tsill
remains; and second, the degree of
virulence of the injecting germ (for
their virulence also varies under vary,
ing conditions) and third, how much
the patients resistance can be restor-
ed by the use of drugs, proper feeding,
rest and other forms of treatment.
The inherent ability possessed to a
gerater or less degree by every per-
son is known as natural immunity, in
ra-distinction to acquired i'm
munity which accrues to a person af
ter one attack of certain maiadies
(such as smallpox and measles), and
in contradistinction to artificial i'm
munity which can be produced against
some diseases by the use of serums,
vaccines, and bacterins.
