FAGS TWO
THE DALTON CITIZEN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1914.
Suggestions and Mottoes
(All Original)
BY C. R. VANCE
Cultivate the art of listening; don’t
be a “ wind-jammer. ’ ’
Because an article is cheap in price
does not signify that it is a bargain
every time.
When a fellow leaves the impression
that he knows it all, he is making a
beautiful display of gross ignorance.
Five minutes every morning with a
tooth brush arid a little paste will make
for better health and more friends.
God put us here to live, and if we
worry constantly about where we will
go when we die we not only fail in
the art of right living, but we commit
Political Potshots
• Never make remarks about young
ladies. It shows a lack of brains. Re
member your mothei\w*s a young lady
once. Keep your fly-trap elosfcd pf
you may have it closed by someone’s
fist.
Get out of bed early and fill' your
lungs with the fresh morning air. It’s
a very bad sign to see folk stay piled up
in bed till away up in the day.
Don’t be better to some other fel-
i low’s sister than you are to your own.
If you will help your wife clean up
the dishes and the house for a week,
f*lant some flowers and cultivate them
along with the garden and the farm.
Flowers add to one’s standing in the
community.
When you start to write a scorching
and scathing letter to a friend, wait till
tomorrow and you won’t write it.
The man or woman who studies only
'one side of a question is prejudiced and
narrow and certainly not well enough
posted to shoot off their “bazoo.”
Write to your relatives who live
away from you. Everybody likes to
get mail, and besides it “kinder”
keeps the love warm.
Have as little business as possible
with the doctors and lawyers, and you
will have better health and more money.
Leave your grumblings and grouch-
erinos out in the front yard just before
you enter the door of your home; your
wife has troubles'of her very own.
^joarn to be courteous and polite to
all classes, and you will build a good
name and be loved and respected.
You will show good, common, home
sense by practising economy just as far
as you can without being downright
stingy.
If you are in business, advertise your
business; the stores today that adver
tise are the stores that are doing the
most business. If you do _ not take
enough pride in your store and mer
chandise to invite the public to trade
with you, you are a dead one, that’s
all.
Save out part of your foreign mission
money and spend it with the poor devils
that never have a decent meal from
one year’s end to the other. They are
like you and me exactly, ’cept misfor
tune hit ’em, that’s the difference.
If you work for a man for the Lord’s
sake give him your time and your best
efforts; then, if you should happen to
get sick or have a bad streak of luck,
the boss will certainly take care of you.
Don’t work for a man, take his money,
and then knock him to outsiders.
Either paddle or get out of the boat.
Try to stay out of debt for goodness
sake! Pay cash and be free and inde
pendent.
Try using less whiskey, snuff and to-
and more soap, water and bay-
Tum.
Do your part toward keeping up the
•church, for without the churches the
country would soon go to the Devil.
Then invite and welcome sinners there.
(I mean to tho church.)
Don’t eat too fast. You only wear
out your digestive organs and pianos
and thereby shoften your stay here on
earth.
Keep all sorts of intoxicants out of
your system. Whiskey eats away the
tissues and ruins your brain. It may
be too latp in a little while, so now is
the time to stop.
Don’t scold little children. My feel
ings have been hurt a thousand times.
Be gentle and tender and win the love
of the little ones.
A real, good, honest and genteel man
will not whip a horse, or kick a dog
or a-cow. Watch this and see if it is
not true, Genevieve.
‘ 1 Keep your shoes shined, and always
put up at- a first-class hotel.” My
father told me this thirty years ago,
and I think of it most every day.
Do not make light of, or poke fun at,
country people or poor folk. They have
feelings. I am often moved to tears
by such actions. God forbid that you
may act so bad.
Don’t buy an automobile until your
debts are all paid up. Better just get
a Ford and do without the automobile.
| you. will appreciate and love her more.
| Just because a man is married is no
I reason why he should neglect his toilet.
[ You should always try to appear just
as neat as your work will permit.
Cultivate a love for little folk, for
flowers and music, and you will soon
be radiating sunshine all around your
self.
Never slight or speak unkindly to an
old person. God bless them, they have
fought a battle and,should always be
held in reverence and esteem."
Remember,‘you can get more work out
of a man or a beast by being kind than-
by being gruff and abusive.
Help the blind, the beggar, the crip
ple; be courteous and obliging to every
one; attend the picture shows, the
church, the ball game and keep away
from the pool hall, the beer garden and
the cabaret. Read good books, visit the
sick, pay your just debts and smile as
often as you can. Then I think God
will look after your case.

BUELL STARK,
Grand Guardian.
MR. A. H. NUNNALLY DIED
SATURDAY IN ATLANTA
Deceased Was a Former Resident of
This City.
Mr. A. H. Nunnally died at his home
in Atlanta Saturday, news of his de
mise being heard here with regret on
the part of Dalton people.
Mr. Nunnally was at one time a resi
dent of this city, having come here
shortly after his graduation from Mer
cer university. While here he taught
school. He was married to Miss Jessie
Stafford, being a brother-in-law of Mr.
Buell Stark, cashier of the Bank of
Dalton.
The deceased had many friends and
admirers in this city.
(Continued from page' 1.)
birds in the ribs to start them to sing
ing, and was drowned out by'roars from
the crowd. All tried to talk at once,
the result being the Rev. Dr. Ainsworth
had to advance to the front and offer
up prayer to still the din.
It was a wild and woolly scene, for
added to the noise could be distinctly
heard the exhaust of the steam roller
as it was being oiled up and tested out
for its work. Toot! Toot! Toot!! And
it was soon away. Jenkins was named
temporary chairman with a whoop and
a howl, and it was easily seen that the
Hardwiek-Felder 'forces werri in full
control.
Back during the times Napoleon was
the Teddy Roosevelt of Europe, they
must have had real elections. All of
the voters had the right to vote for
50,000 men, and these voted for a small
er number, the “registration list
gradually growing smaller until it was
left with five thousand men to name the
five hundred men from whom office
holders' were picked.
Up" here in North Georgia, the voters
growl at having to mark a ticket a few
yards long, containing less than 100
names. Just think of those poor, old
French voters who voted a ticket and
elected 50,000 men! Why, should such
a thing occur in this county, Dalton peo
ple would have to board the train for
Tilton several years before the primary,
and, with the tail of the ticket here
and the head in Tilton, the question of
scrating the names of the undesirables
would be started. The / ticket would
easily reach to Tilton, and probably
farther. By the time Dalton was final
ly reached on primary day, the voter
would be a mere skeleton.
It is to wonder how the French found
big enough ballot boxes to hold the
votes, and the counting must have been
a harrowing experience! Then the sec
ond primary, in which these 50,000 par
ticipated, was started. When the final
result was declared and the office
holders took charge, at least half of
them must have already been dead from
old age! ,
No wonder Napoleon was banished to
St. Helena.

This Farmer Smiles
At Cotton Prospects;
He Gretv a Better Crop
Mr. Wallace Bare, a prominent young
farmer of the Varnells section, is not
letting the cotton situation worry him
to any great extent. Why? Because he
happened to raise a better crop.
Mr. Bare, together with his father,
this year raised over 1,300 bushels o£
wheat, making, on ten acres, 425 bush
els, or an average of 42*4 bushels per
acre.
Now this beats cotton even when
cotton is bringing a good price, for
wheat requires comparatively little work
when the work necessary for raising
cotton is considered..
Last year Mr. Bare sold his wheat
for $2.50 per bushel, for seed purposes.
This yearTlf he sells for $1.50, on $1 less
than last year, he will make something
like $2,000 on his wheat crop, in addi
tion to the other crops he grew on his
farm.

Hardwick’s Acceptance Speech.
In accepting the nomination, Con
gressman Hardwick spoke as follows:
‘ ‘ Fellow Georgians and ' fellow dem
ocrats:
“I would not be candid if I did not
first express my appreciation of the
splendid devotion of the delegates who
come to this convention instructed to
vote for me.
* * I want to say I have no unkind feel
ings either against the delegates voting
against me here or the voters who cast
their ballots against me at the polls
on August 19 or against'the gentlemen
who were my competitors. It will be
my aim afi5 aspiration to represent
them just like every other Georgian. I
would consider myself unfit for the high
office to - which you have nominated me
if I should be so little as to treat un
fairly the gentlemen who have opposed
me.
“I cannot make you a long speech. I
sinJply want to say my heart is full of
gratitude beyond expression, and full
to overflowing with the desire to serve
the democracy of Georgia.
“Let me say the time has come for
us to have a real deinocratic party in
Georgia. For every honestly repentant
sinner I have nothing but - welcome back
into the fold. But as for those who
come with slander for the party and
its leaders my sword, shall be plunged
into them to the hilt. v
“It is a very great pleasure to me to
know that next December when I go to.
the senate I will Wrilk down the aisle
to take my oath rind be seated aft
erward by my good friend, your great
senior > senator, Hoke Smith. Ytffi can
expect that you will have two Senators
working in harmony for our state and
for the party.
“I feel that I would be reriiiss in my
duty if I did not pay tribute to the
great leader of the democratic party,
President Wilson; to Senator Hoke
Smith, Georgia’s great statesman,
the Hon. Thomas S. Felder, the sterling
and magnificent young progressive dem
ocrat who was willing to submerge his
personal interests in order that the pro
gressive democracy might not be de
feated.
“And I wish to say in regard to my
other opponent, the Hon._John M. Sla
ton, that I do not and will not entertain
any unkind feelings toward any demo
crat.
“We may have our little family dif
ferences in the party, but we settle
them and hold no malice.”
Mr. Hardwick declared that the Dem
ocratic party would without doubt re
main in power for years to come and
predicted President Wilson’s election in
1916. He concluded with this sentence:
I pray that God may gjive me
sTrength and wisdom from on high.”
How Whitfield Delegates Voted.
Whitfield delegates voted for Slaton
up to the eighth ballot. Before the
eighth ballot was taken, W. C. Martin
left the convention hall to get a sand
wich, it being around midnight at the
•time. Judge Bogle, an alternate, was
left in the- Whitfield delegation, with
the privilege of voting as he pleased.
On the eighth ballot, Judge Bogle voted
for Hardwick, W. E. Wood voting for
Slaton.
Later Dr. Wood left the convention
hall, and on the eleventh ballot, both
of Whitfield’s votes went to Hardwick.
End of County. Unit System.
In spite of the fact that an indorse
ment of the county unit system was
written in the platform, Hon. Paul B.
Trammell, returning here from the con
vention, expressed his belief that the
system was a thing of the past, and that
other arrangements would be made for
future elections. He states that in his
opinion Georgia has passed through its
last primary nrider the county unit plan
of election.
He expressed the belief that in the
future, elections would either result in
the two highest candidates running it
off in a second election, provided no one
Received a majority vote, or else the
one carrying the plurality vote would
be declared the nominee.
Humiliated at Jeers
Of Thoughtless Dogs,
Canine Hangs Himself
Driven t(T desperation at the -jeers
of thoughtless' dogs, a diminutive pup
belonging to Cicero Fain committed
suicide by hanging himself off the porch
Saturday night, the lifeless body being
found swaying at the end of the rope
early Sunday morning.
The pup was tied to .post on the
porch to prevent him from leaving. He
tugged manfully in an" effort to free
himself, fifter which he settled down
to a fit of brooding.
More, fortunate dogs passing the
"house stopped to comment on his luck
less position, jeering him and frisking
about to show just how glorious free
dom was. The pup watched it for a
time,' dark thoughts forming them
selves in»his bean.
Sunday morning, he was found dang
ling at the end of the rope. He had
jumped from the porch, the force qf_
the sudden' jerk resulting in breaking
his neck.
That he had been mercilessly taunted
throughout the night was clearly evi
denced by the decidedly bang-dog ex
pression which death had frozen over
his countenance.

Taking Calomel
Is a Bad Habit
So Powerful it Shocks Liver and Leaves
it Weaker Than Before. Dodson’s
Liver Tone is Better to Take.
Nearly everybody who has ever tried
calomel has found that it gives only a
temporary relief. For calomel is such a
powerful drug that it shocks and weak
ens the liver 'and makes it less able
afterward to do its duty than in the
first place.
That is one of the reasons why
Fincher & Nichols guarantee Dodson’s
to ^Liver Tone to take the place of calomel.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pure vegetable
liver tonic that will cure constipation
quickly and gently, without any danger
of bad after-effects. It is guaranteed
to do this with a guarantee that is sim
ple and fair. If you buy a bottle of
Dodson’s Liver Tone, for yourself or
your children, and do not find that it
perfectly takes the place of calomel,
then return to the store where you
bought it and get your money back
with a smile.—Adv.
