/ i T CORONER’S JURY HOLDS NEGRO WOMAN FOR MURDER. Charged with Causing the Death of Gussie Clyde—Dead Negro Sister of Spot ■■ i M Clyde, Murdered a Month ago. At the coroner's held over the body of Gussie Clyde, a negro woman, it was decided from the evidence that her death was caused at the hands of Rosa Johnson, another negro woman, and charged the latter with abortion. Rosa’s treatment consisted of a tea of some kind, which made the patient very sick, and later the Johnson woman operated on Gussie Clyde, from the effects which she died. The Johnson woman will be tried for murder at the July term of Hall Superior court. Recital at Brenau.

Berlin, Germany, March 28.—Fer dinand Eglinski, aged 53, a tailor of Ahibeck, is Gemany’s champion father. The Tageblatt, which pub lishes his story, says that his suc cessive marriages with two sisters, 25 children were born, 29 of whom are living —19 boys and seven girls. The tailor married at the age of 20. His first wife, who died in 1907, bore him 24 children. In 1908, he married his deceased wife’s sister, who has borne him 11 childrenin the last six years. Triplets came on one occasion and twins were born twice. When his sixth son entered the army in 1913, Eglinski received a private audience with the kaiser, who ordered him entertained in Ber lin at his majesty’s expense for a week. Eglinski has become a celebrity, and adds to his income as a tailor by selling picture post cards of him self. EASTER Is the festival of our Lord’s resur rection. It corresponds with the Passover, Pascha, Christ’s crucifix ion. Later it meant both the cruci fixion and resurrection, but after the fourth century, following the Coun cil of Nicaea, it has referred only to the resurrection of our Savior from the dead. Easter always falls on Sunday after the full moon,J next after March 21. It is Christianity’s Cornerstone, the testimony of forgiveness of sin, the redemdtion of man and restitu tion of the universe. “Like Easter Lillies, pure and white, Make ThouJ our hearts, O, Lord of Light! Like EasterjLillies, let them be. Sweet chalicesfof loveJtojThee.” HALL COUNTY’S ROADS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE. Every Road in the County will Get a Share of r ( the Year’s Bridge and ■'.Keifhts Ferry Get NexMogk In. iif Regardless 'of the many obstacles shat“ County meet in providing Hall county with good roads, the work is going on just the same, and Hall county is getting to the point that she is leading in good roads building of the State. Steel bridges are taking the place of the former old rickety bridges, two of these steel bridges being erected recently over Little River, one at Pass’s Mill, and the other near Turner Quillian’s. When the Clarke’s Bridge road is completed, the convicts who are now camped at Dewberry No. 2 will be transferred next to Brown's Bridge and Keith’s Ferry roads, both roads, it is said, being badly in the need of attention. The Commissioners are hoping that they will not meet with the ob stacles along these roads that they have met with along the roads formerly worked, since the convict lease system went into effect it being a difficult matter in matter in many places to secure rights of way and dirt with which to top-soil the road being worked. Top-soiling, it has been proven, is the most beneficial way of working the roads. When a road has been top-soiled properly it is an impossi bility for the road to wash into gullies and holes. After it has been top-soiled and packed thoroughly it becomes hard, very much in the nature of asphalt, producing the best and most lasting road that can be built. The National Highway is top-soiled. The commissioners are to be com mended upon the expedition in which they are bringing Hall county roads to the front. It will be only a question of time now until every road that is of any importance will be worked through out the county. Brown’s Bridge and Keith’s Ferry roads are two of the most im portant roads of the county, much produce being brought into the city over them, and it is to be hoped that the Commissioners will meet with no obstacles in securing rights of way over these roads when the work shall begin upon them. To the Public: I just want to, in as few words as possible, express my sincere thanks and deep appreciation to my friends and the voters of Hall county for their support in the recent election. My success, of course, is due to the favor of my friends, and I am going to use my best endeavors to measure up to their fullest expecta tions in the administration of the duties of the office. Respectfully yours, REED A. LATHEM.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mu cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Curei Send for circulars, free. F. J. CH ENY & CO., Toledo, O.

R. W. SMITH, Clerk Superior Court, Hall Co., Ga. A FAIR WARNING One That Should Be Heeded by Gainesville Residents. Frequently the first sign of kidney trouble is a slight ache or pain in the loins. Neglect of this warning makes the way easy for more se rious troubles—dropsy, gravel, Bright’s disease. ’Tis well to pay attention to the first sign. Weak kidneys generally grow weaker and delay is often dangerous. Resi dents of this locality place- reliance in Dodson’s Kidney Pills. This tested remedy has been used in kidney trouble over 50 years—is recommended all over the civilized world. Read the following: Mrs. A. J. Martin, 32 Finley St., Gainesville, Ga., says: “One of my family was obliged to do much stooping and lifting and this brought on a bad case of kidney trouble. The first symptom was pain in the back and later on the kidney secre tions became irregular in passage and highly colored. There was a tired, feeling present and other symptoms of kidney complaint. Doan’s Kidney Pills were finally used, being procured at George's Drug Store, and two boxes brought relief. I still endorse Doan’s Kid ney Pills when I have the opportu nity and I give you permission for the continued use of my statement.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills —the same that Mrs. Martin recommends. Foster- Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. 'Electric Bitters Succeed when everything else fails.
