SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP
Cored by One Bottle of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy.
“When I had ati attack of the
grip last winter (the second one) I
actually cured myself with one bot
tle of Chamberlain’s Cough Rem
edy,” says Frank W. Perry, editor
of the Enterprise, Shortsville, N.
>Y. “This is the honest truth. I
at times kept from coughing my
self to pieces by taking a teaspoon
ful of this remedy, and when the
coughing spell would come on at
night I would take a dose and it
seemed that in the briefest interval
the cough would pass off and I
would go to sleep perfectly free
from cough and its accompanying
pains. To say that the remedy
acted as a most agreeable surprise
is putting it very mildly. I had no
idea that it could or would knock
out the grip, simply because I had
never tried it for such a purpose,
but it did, and it seemed with the
second attack of coughing the rem
edy caused it to not only be of less
duration, but the pains were far
less severe, and I had not used the
contents of one bottle before Mr.
Grip had bid me adieu.” For sale

Killarney, Ga., March 14, ’O3
Editor Early County News :
Corn planting is the leading act
on the program now.
Wonder if spring has really
come or is this weather flirting
with it?
We are glad to note that little
Bryant Tool, who has been quite
sick with pneumonia is rapidly re
covering under the treatment of
Dr. Crozier.
Since our last the people of this
community met at Springfield and
cleaned off the cemetery. It helps
the looks very much. It will soon
be enclosed by a wire fence.
We are very sorry to note the
serious illness of Ida McMullen,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. T.
McMullen. She is suffering very
much with lung fever at this writ
ing. We hope for her a speedy re
covery.
We rejoice wfith Oil in the pros
perity of his section of the country.
It shows that the boys down there
are not letting the grass grow un
der their feet. And by the way.
Oil, if you will come over here you
will not find the farmers napping
or fishing just now.
We noticed Mr. E. H. Hayes a
few days ago, stepping two or
three cotton rows at a step, with a
smile on his face that could not be
equaled. We could not imagine
what was the matter. But we
soon found out that it was a fine
baby girl, who had recently taken
up her abode at his house.
It does not take a philospher or
a Solomon to see our part of the
country is in need of more yo # ung
men who are throughly capable of
attending to business. The busi
ness world needs young men who
think, who are reliable and are not
afraid to work. We saw a mer
chant some time ago. We told
him that he would not be put to
any trouble in finding one. He
says, “Oh, no, I can find a dozen
this morning, but not such as I
want. I want a young man who
has some business qualifications
about him.” Young man life is
real, and he who would be success
ful must labor and think. You
can not always draw on your fath
er’s bank account. The time will
come when you must root hog or
die. Carolus.

Saved from Death.
The family of Mrs. M. L. Bob
bitt of Bargerton, Tenn., saw her
dying and were powerless to save
her. The most skillful physicians
and every remedy used, failed,
while consumption was slowly but
surely taking her life. In this ter
rible hour Dr. King’s New Discov
ery for consumption turned desp’air
into joy. The first bottle brought
immediate relief and its continued
use completely cured her. It’s the
most certain cure in the world for
all throat and lung troubles. Guar
anteed bottles 50c and SI.OO. Trial
bottles free at Dr. L. C. Strong’s
drug store.
