DOES YOUR BABY
SLEEP WELL AT NlGHT2

Babys sleep is important. At night
baby sleeps about nine-tenths OF the
time and should take daily nap until
about four years old. A quiet, peace
full sleep is a sign of perfect health
while disturbance of sleep is almost
always due to improper feeding,
which causes Indigestion, constipa-
ton, sour stomach, gas, etc.
A baby specialist, while admitting
that good baby laxative should be
used in such cases, warns mothers
against the use of strong, irritating
drugs that cause inflammation of the
delicate membrane of baby's stom-
ach, and recommends "Baby Ease" "
a perfected baby laxative by a baby
specialist.
"Baby Ease" is excellent for all
disorders of the stomach and diges-
ton in babies and children. 1t is
easy-acting. non-irritating, does not
produce over-action or leave baby
constipated. 1t is a safe, harmless
and efficient baby laxative and cor
rective. If "Baby Ease" fails to
correct these troubles after a few
doses, take your baby to a specialist
for a thorough examination. "Baby
Ease" may be had from your drug
gist. adv

1t does not seem to make any diff
ference who takes Plank's Blood Med
icine the result is the same if taken
either by young or old. Here is case
of a veteran of the Grand Army of
the Republic, a man who is over rs
years of age, being completely re-
lieved of long time attack of Bron-
chitis which as anyone can tell you
who has had it, there is hardly any
thing which is more nerve-racking
or which will pull you down in health
quicker. For over two years Mr.. l. D.
Morgan, visitor here and who re-
sides in st. Lotus, suffered as few
men have; it was particularly hard
with Mr.. Morgan on account of his
years and consequently harder to re-
lieve. He says that he came to this
city on March 18th, this year, after
suffering intensely at his home, with
the hope that Florida's balmy climate
and life out doors would help him /:
but instead of getting better he con-
tinued to grow worse and lust
coughed night and day almost with
/ out stopping, until he was so run
down and impoverished that he de-
SPARED of ever getting we'll or even
better. One day while sitting in Hem
ming Park he read in an ad how a
prominent local man had been so
much helped and although he had
tried many so-called "cures" with
out result he was so impressed with
the statements made that he decided
to once more see if there could be
any help for him. The first bottle of
Plank's Blood Medicine eased his
cough and the second bottle gave so
much relief that he began to feel
hopeful and the third bottle practi-
cally cleared up this two wear old
Bronchial cough. Mr.. Morgan was SO
run down that he could hardly breathe
nerves were all gone and life was
anything but a pleasant dream but
now, thanks to Plank's Blood Medi-
cine, he is getting around more like

In France, just before the Revolution,
a new gallows 40 feet in height was built
to hang two leaders of citizens who
dared petition for relief from the bur
dens imposed by Special Privilege.
Special Privilege no longer has the
power to hang a man, but Special Priv
ilege has still the pillory of publicity.
In advertisements, Special Privilege
has recently pilleried before the people
of Georgia the Mayor of its Capital,
James L. Key, as "(I) a Slanderer, (2)
an Ignoramus, (3) a Demagogue," be-
cause the Mayor pointed in protest to
the water in the stock of the Georgia
Railway and Power Company and the
companv's effort to impose an additional
tax of $2,500,000 year upon the people
of Atlanta in order to get greater prof
its upon that stock.
The gallows failed to silence men in
France.
Billirgsgate will not deter the people
of Georgia.
The inability of the Power Company
to answer facts with facts, together with
this effort to besmirch the character of
public official for doing his duy, only
emphasizes the need for action by the
state.
Georgia and her municipalities should
be given powers equal to those given to
the Power Companies.
Our public officials should have the
