(Answer.) Intemperance and fear were the sole causes of your aunt's trouble. At the age of 75, a person who will eat a heavy meal is just as surely incorporate as the person that over drinks and gets drunk.
 Fear was increased by the poisons that were immediately developed in her stomach and the blood ~~-s kept away from the stomach so the diges- tive ferments were not normally se- creted. Digestion could not take place but fermentation could and did. Na- ture came to her aid as soon as given a chance and elected the fern ented and poisonous food.
 The doctor was wise beyond the average and if she had followed his advice and taken the hot water on ly she would have had a more rapid recovery. Do not urge her to eat Wait until nature has eliminated all the. poison and then caution her against a repitition of the offense. When you take her or go yourself for another long ride, be sure to rest quietly, pre-, ferably lying down, for at least an hour before you again start out She does not need medicine of any kind but her stomach needs a rest and al cleaning out process, such as that des- cribed in the Home Health Club book, Vol 1, under the Chapter entitled.

Immediately after dinner yve drove 30 miles to call on her sister my mother, who is not quite so viz orous as my aunt.

She was terribly frightened and thought she was dying but +be doctor, who uses a great deal of sur- gestion In his practice, spoke in a strong, positive and quiet tone and told her that her heart was all right and steady as a clock and not to be afraid. He and I then helped her to the bath room where a large DOT ton of the dinner was thrown up.
 The doctor suggested a cupful of very hot water, after which he and his wife left. She, however, preferred to take some hot whiskey and after resting for an hour, we completed the last 25 miles of our triangle trio. but she was quite exhausted and has not had her usual good appetite since.

Mayor and Council Take Dras-
tic Action Against Mutual
Light and Water Co.
WILL TAKE MATTER BEFORE
THE RAILROAD COMMISSION
Company Claims that it Cannot
Procure Necessary Grade of
Coal to Produce a Standard
Quality of Gas-PubIc is in
censed at Treatment.

The Mutual Light & Water Co has
been given ten days in which to
supply the consumers of gas in
Brunswick with a standard oralitv
CT this commodity by the mayor and
city council.
At a meeting of council on Mon
day night Mayor Hopkins was en-
powered with authority to take the
matter up with the management of
the light and water company and to
impose certain drastic conditions
that would warrant an imm diate
improvement or give the company
an ultimatum in the premises.
The mayor held conference with
NMessrs. Adams and Armstrong. of
Stbe company, and after a full dis
7cussion of the existing conditions an
agreement was reached to allow the
water and light company ten days
Z in which to bring the quality Of gas
up to the standard.
In the event that this is not done,
Mayor Hopkins, through Attorney
Closon will Immediately take the
matter up with the Georgia Rail-
road Commission, seeking relief or
the reScission of the contract now
existing between the city and the
water company.
The managers of the company pro-
tested to the mayor that it had been
impossible for them to secure the
necessary quality of steam coal to
produce the requisite quality and
quantity of gas. This was met with
the statement that it was not the
fault of the public that this condition
existed, but that a maximum Of ten
days would be allowed in which to
secure the necessary coal AMI that
if this was not done that thev may
expect no further leniency on the
part of the city.

the Mutual Light & Water Company
has been aware for months that the

practically useless for domestic. or
any other purpose. That instead of
gas they were supplied with ali and
forced to pay for that element at
the same rate fer which a first,
class qualiy Of gas should have been
furnished
Notwithstanding the innumerable
complaints reaching the company's
office daily no attention was paid to
the complaintants and instead of
an improvement, the quality Of gas
deteriorated, if such were possible.
In hundreds of instances gas stoves
have been relegated to the srore-
room and the wood range brought in
to requisition.
And an element that has MATERIAL
ly added to the Indignation Of the
public is that while paying a higher
rate for this so-called gas thar is
charged in other cities, the Mutual
Light & Water Company is at the
present moment endeavoring to have
it's rate still further increased by
appealing to the railroad corrmis-
sion. So incensed has the public be-
come that the water and light COM
pany has been openly denounced and
a prompt refusal to pay bills when
presented is an every day occur
rance.
Realizing that the situation had
reached its climax, the city council
decided that drastic action was nee
essary and if the terms laid down
are not complied with an abrogation
of the existing contract between the
city and light and water company
will be Immediately sought.
