Not getting along as i-ell as you ex pected? That is the way grip acts when it is not taken in hand and driven out of the system at once. The poisons left by the grip germs keep right on destroying the vitality and undermining the health. You lose your appetite for food and what little you eat seems to do no good. Your nerves are unstrung, you become weak and exhausted and finally you are overpowered by some chronic disorder which takes you to an untimely grave. Why should you let the grip run until it gets such a hold on you when a few bottles of Dr. Miles’ Nervine would fix you up all right? It is the greatest nerve medicine and health restorer ever known and thousands of grip's victims are finding in it a safe and sure means of regaining lost strength and vitality. “I found myself with a very weak stomach, and every time I tried to eat I would become nauseated, sometimes belching wind and frequently finding relief only after vomiting. My nerves became affected and I was almost blind for several months. Finally I began using Dr. Miles’ Nervine; and when I had used one bottle I was greatly im proved. After taking two more bottles my stomach trouble was entirely gone and I have had no return of the symp toms in over three years.” Mrs. L. L. Winters, Gwynneville, Ind. A trial package of Dr. Miles’ favorite treatment for the grip, consisting of Dr. Miles’ Nervine, Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills and Dr. Miles’ Nerve and Liver Pills, will be sent absolutely free of cost to any person sending name and address on a postal card, requesting the sample, and mentioning the name of this paper. Address Dr. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind. Just received a Fine Line of TOILET SOAPS Which will be sold as cheap, if not cheaper, than anybody else. M. C. Brown & Co. Grave Stones Down. Considerable damage was done the city cemetery by the recent storm. It is located on a very high point with natural drainage in every direction from the center. It overlooks the city and from it one can get a good view of the Blue Ridge mountains. In it is to be found some of the best work of tbe sculptor, shaded by the forest oaks which nature planted, and surrounded by flowers and shrubs which were put there by loving hands. But the blizzard came and all of the flowers are dead. The recent storm overturned the slabs and shafts which marked the graves of the follow ing persons: Mrs. W. H. Terry, Joe Duskin, Judge Rice, Martin R. Archer, Dr. Brock, M. W. Finger, child of H. 11. Smith, Ira Gaines, Mrs. Cicero Chapman and tbe child of Mack Mabry. On finding these down one week after the storm had passed,the question “Why have they not been replaced?” naturally presents itself to the mind. On investi gation we find that it is in no sense tbe duty of the city or of the sexton. These lots are private property and the re erection of these tombs will be left to relatives. Rev. E. Edwards, pastor of the English Baptist church at Minersville, Pa., when suffering with rheumatism, was advised to try Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. He says: “A few applications of this lini ment proved of great service to me. It subdued the inflammation and relieved the paiu. Should any sufferer profit by giving Pain Balm a trial it will please me.” For sale by M. C. Brown A Co. State Baptist Convention. The State Baptist convention will be held this year in Savannah. It will con vene at the First Baptist church of that city the 31st instant. Dr. W. W. Lan drum of Atlanta has been chosen to preach the introductory sermon. Dr. J. A. Wynne of this city has been selected as alternate. Dr. Landrum is a very able man, but should he fail to preach we can assure the people of the city by the sea that Dr. Wynne will preach them a most excellent sermon. But few men are so gifted in this respect as he. All of tbe delegates from the churches here have not as yet been agreed on, as only those who can attend will be finally selected. T. B. Rice, Druggist, Greensboro, Ga., writes as follows: “In the past eight years, I have sold moie of Dr. Pitt’s Carminative than ail the soothing syrups, colic drops, and,, other baby medicines combined.” Sold by E. E. Dixon & Co. The City Hall. The plans of the city hall have long since been agreed on; the old city stables have been sold at public outcry and removed; contracts for a greater portion of the material has been let; more than a car of lumber is now on the grounds; work has been begun, and in a short time we will see a city hall looming up which will be the pride of our people for several generations to come.

Boggs, chancellor of tbe State University at Athens, lectured at the court bouse last Friday evening. His subject was, “College Training in the University of Georgia.” The court room was full of people. The speaker was introduced by H. H. Perry who brought him and audience into close touch by a few appropriate remarks. Dr. Boggs stepped forward and after referring to the introduction said he would use the good judgment that so distinguished a lawyer as the one who introduced him would use on any ordinary occasion: He would not speak from the stand but get down where he would be close to his jury. It was not a lecture but a talk; full of wisdom and humor; profound in some respects, yet so simple that the small school boy could comprehend it. The central idea which he presented was to make perfect (or as near as it is pos sible to do so) men of our boys. He went into details to show how this end was accomplished. He also defended the school against the charge of immor ality among the students. When he con cluded after an hour’s talk many ex pressed themselves as feeling an in terest in the University which they had not heretofore felt. I have been afflicted with rheumatism for fourteen years and nothing seemed to give any relief. I was able to be around all the time, but constantly suf fering. I had tried everything I could bear of and at last was told to try Cham berlain's Pain Balm, which I did, and was immediately relieved and in a short time cured. lam happy to say that it has not since returned.—Josh. Edgar, Germantown, Cal. For sale by M. C. Brown A Co. A Jolly Drummer. J. H. Williamson has accepted a situa tion as traveling salesman with Harvey Blair A Co., of Richmond, Va., which is one of tbe largest wholesale concerns in the South.

He will travel the South ern and Seaboard Air-Line railroads. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. This remedy is intended especially for coughs, colds, croups, whooping cough and influenza. It has become famous for its cures of these diseases, over a large part of the civilized world. The most flattering testimonials have been received, giving accounts of its good works; of the aggravating and persistent coughs it has cured; of severe colds that have yielded promptly to its soothing effects, and of the dangerous attacks of croup it has cured, often saving the life of the child. The extensive use of it for whooping cough has shown that it robs that disease of all dangerous conse quences. Sold by M. C. Brown A Co. Rucker Fired at Train. Maysville, Ga., March 13.—A son of Colonel Tinney Rucker, the well known lawyer, fired on the northbound train from Athens to Lula with a double barrel shotgun, the load passing through the window of the coach and came near hitting Mr. Cox, conductor. Tbe train backed and telegraphed to Athens for the boy’s arrest. Young Rucker claimed not to know that his gun was loadad. fO W An Excellent Combination. The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxa tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting them in the form most refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxa tive, cleansing the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation per manently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and sub stance. and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only. In order to get its beneficial effects and to avoid imitations, please remember the full name of the Company printed on the front of every package. CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. LOUISVILLE, KY. NEW YORK, N. Y. For sale by all Druggists.—Price 50c. per bottle. The Dog-Gone Ordinance. Tuesday City Clerk Boone issued bis first order to a citizen of tbe city to remove his dog to a place beyond the city limits. The order was issued under sec tion 228 of the City Code, which provides for the issuing of such an order and the punishment of any person who fails to comply with such an order after it has been issued. If a dog barks a great deal it the» becomes a nuisance and its owner is subject to such an order, or if the dog is dangerous its owner is subject to be forced to remove the dog from the city. In this case the order was served on J.T. Hargrove, whose dog has proved trouble some to people passing on the street, and on last Saturday Tom Sain’s little son was bitten by it. The execution of the dog or its banishment from the city must follow this act.
