Editor Evening Telegram:

Editor Evening Telegram:
For the last two weeks under the
tent on West Lemon street splendid
religious service has been in pro-
gress resulting in deep interest and
with steadily increasing attendance.
These meetings are conducted by two
self-sacrificing evangelists, Mr.. and
and Mrs. w. F. McDade of Atlantis
Georgia, who are untiring workers,
devoting their lives to the cause of
humanity, depending on their sup
port on the goodness of the Christian
people in the communities where they
may happen to be staying and in
which they may be working.
During the recent storm the tent
was practically demolished and until
such time as same is replaced, the
meetings will have to be discontinued.
Now, as our sympathy goes out to
everyone touched by misfortune, let
US get. together and make it possible
TOR these good people to continue
their unselfish and excellent work.
Yours for everything worth while,
WELL-WISHER.

WHEN NERVES
ARE UNSTRUNC
Guides Pepto-Mangan Builds Up
VigOr and Strength

There are times when men and
women cannot help losing strength.
They try to do too much or they lose
sleep or do not eat enough food that
nourishes. Blood becomes sluggish
because poisons clog it. Faces grow
PALE and pasty looking. 1t is not long
before nerves get unstrung.
The best way to start a change for
the letter is to take course OF
Guides Pepto-Mangan. 1t builds the
blood. The weakness from a lack OF
rcd cells in the blood is overcome.
Guides Pepto-Mangan sends fresh
supply of red cells streaming through
the blood. Good blood, pure and free
from poisons, starts building vigor
and strength. Sleep is better, appe-
tite keener, so that the body be-
comes properly nurished. Druggists
have Guides Pepto-Mangan in both
liquid and tablet form. The name
Guides Pepto-Mangan' is on the
package. adv.

REAL ATMOsPHERE.

Not all the atmosphere in spring
training camps is furnished by the
weather man.
The real barometer of a baseball
camp is supplied in the relation Of a
manager to his players.
And ii makes lot OF difference
in results whether the manager
stacks up well with his men or vice
versa.
In the camps this year examples OF
all kinds Of atmosphere were shown.
There was absolute harmony in
some
Indifference prevailed in others.
In few there were tinges Of dis
| cord.
II the winners were picked on the
basis of atmosphere which exists in
the l6 big league outfits thero'd be
several upsets in the dope.
Harmony alone won't win pen
nants.
Brilliant players can't cop without
team play.
Combine harmony and brillianc,
on a ball club and it's a cinch win
ner.
