“Our Women in the War.”
The mothers of the Confeder
acy, and the veterans, their sons
and daughters, heirs of their glo
ry, are earnestly and cordially in
vited to contribute accounts of
such instances as are known to
them whore t he Women of Geor
gia showed, during the War. their
patriotic heroism and patient
fortitude. Such contributions
are intended for the “Special
Editions'' which the Press of
fb oi'gia propost at an early date
to publish, devoted entirely to
true history of the '* Women in
the War.'' “who bound their war
riors' sash wlnui they went forth
to tight : who suffered worse t han
death a thousand times: who were
stung and wounded by privat ions
that the hardiest soldier never
knew : and who, besides, were ex
posed to the infamies and taunts
of the infamous raiders who visit
ed Southern homes and stripped
them of what was holiest and
dearest, because it was dear mid
holy.”
It will be published* with the
endorsement of all the camps of
Veterans mid Sons of the various
cities and under t he direction of
Committees from all of these
Camps.
Perhaps many of those who
suffered the most and crowned
their sufferings with the grandest
heroism, or those who knew of
swell, are not accustomed to write
for publication and would shrink
naturally from such an under
taking—to such we can only say,
write down in your own way, the
incidents a« you remember them
and send to us. We will have
what you write edited—clothed in
company dress—Just such con
tributions are tlit' most valuable.
Give names of participants bo
as to make truo history.
Literary contributions are ask
ed, and specially asked for at once
from those ot the most, brilliant
literary attainments; from those
of modest culture; from those
who can not even spell correctly,
and from those who can not write
at all and must get some friend
to write for them. We only ask
a true history of what our women
did, how they suffered and till
that they endured with such hero
ism, t hat, justice maybe done to
those deserving of all honor, all
praise, all glory.
Send these contributions to Col.

opportunities for study that
Europe afforded, attending lec

Florence, Coming back to Ameri

thorough familiarity with science,
pure and applied, and of litera

nothing less t han astounding. He
is familiar with Dutch, Swedish,
Hebrew, Syrian and Assyrian;
and is thoroughly at home in the
literatures of Greece, Rome, Ger

the elections of 1892 and 1896.
His interest in such sciences as
anthropology, ethnology,psychol

with these Helds that enabled him
to write so authoritativelyoti the
race problem.

Let us illustrate vividly the difference ill mean
ing of tho words might and will—the child might
live ; the child will live. Might implies doubt; w ill
means certainty, Might live means might die;
will live means will not die.
These two words aptly illustrate the difference
between Johnson's Tonic and tho horde -of commer
cial remedies on tho market, and that vast horde ol
inert, professional remedies which only boar the
sanction of tho High l’riosts of medicine.
USE JOHNSON'S TONIC
in n bad case of Grip and you will live I
Uso inert, or commercial products, and
you mifiht live.
Johnson’s Tonic quickly drives out every trace
and taint of Grip. It is not simply good, it is su
premely good—not good as anything, but lie it or than
everything—a genuine life-saver. Those who believe
in it are safe—doublers are in danger ami jeopardize
their lives. Summed up, Johnson's Chill unci Fever
Tonic is tho best Crip medicine on earth. This is
tho sober, serious, earnest truth.

Some good speeches were tnade,|
and the line reviewed from La-
Grange to Wedowee by way of
McCosli’s mill, Cedar Rock audl
Uoclc Mills. Rock Mills lias a cob-1

quarries. There are five good
shoals on Wehadkee Creek. Rocjs]
Mills is located oil a direct lino
from LaGrange to Wedowee, and
a ridge route cun be procured
without crossing but few branches.
A vote was taken and right of
way assured through this com-
munitv. The action was unani
mous. A committee was appoint
ed to look after the right of way
in the interest of the A. & B. The
I committee was composed* of tho

Some silinll boys attending school ait
Wehadkee informed a certain young
man tlmt they saw a dog at the school
house they thought was mad. He dem
onstrated 1ns bruve-y and chivalry by
going to the school house with his gun
to dispatch tho dog. Looking under
tne house, sure enough there was tho
green eyed, panting, rabid dog, or
something that looked like one to him,
so he took deliberate aim and fired,
lie then proceeded to draw the dog
(?) from under the house and found
instead of a dog that he had slain throe
chickens that had innocently strayed
to the school house from a nearby
lurm. For further information see
