CURES
, CHRONIC ULCERS
There is a natural clement ot the circlation known as plasma, a fibrous
constituent which is the true healing quality of the blood. Th *P>“® 1 '
property is frequently destroyed by impure accumulations m the blood, and
this vital fluid not only loses its power to heal, but becomes a source of irri
tation to any wound or open sore or ulcer on the flesh. The blood contin-
ually discharges the impurities into the place and gradually the infection
spreads and the .sore enlarges. External applications cannot cure an old
sore because such treatment does not affect the blood ; the most that can be
expected from plasters, washes, salves, etc., is a cleansing, soothing effect
on the ulcer. S.S.S. heals old sores in a perfectly natural way. It goes
down into the blood, and removes the impurities andgnorbid matters that are
the means of keeping the ulcer open; then the sore is bound to heal. b. b. b. is
the greatest of all blood purifiers, and not only does it cleanse the circulation,
but it restores the healing, plasmic qualities and aids in promoting every
necessary quality for good health. S. S. S. builds new flesh tissue from the
- of the ulcer to the outer skin, and makes a permanent cure. Book

Presbyterian* Organize at Tifton.
jfc. G. L. Bitzer, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, of Val
dosta. spent Sunday in Tifton. H<
preached morning and evening at
the Baptist church, both eloquent
ahd interesting sermons.
Immediately after the morning
service, at the home of Mr. B. Y.
Wallace, a Presbyterian church was
organized, with twenty-one members.
H. IT. Britt, David Comfort and
E. J. Mansfield were elected elders,
and B. Y. Wallace and A. S. Scott,
deacons.
A ibuilding fund of $1,900 has al
ready been raised, and a house of
worship will be erected on the lot
belonging to the church on Central
avenue. A deal was pending with
the city council for the old Baptist
church bull ling, on Park avenue,
but waa not closed.
A building costing $3,000 or more
will be erected and those who know
the tnembenhip are assured that it
will «be the lest tne money can buy.
The Presbyterians had a member
ship nearly twenty strong several
years ago, but quite a number of
them moved away. They had a neat
chnrch building, which was de
stroyed by a itorm ln 1107.—-Tifton

23,000 ACRES
NOT RETURNED
The Hunt for Unreturned
Property is Revealing Large
Blocks of Land.
Mr. C. C. Buchanan, of the South
Georgia Auditing Company, is in
the city finishing up the checking
which waa made upon the county
tax books with a view to finding out
whether all of the land of the coun
ty is given In for taxee or not.
Mr. Buchanan has checked over
each lot of land in the county and
he finds that there are about 23,000
acres of land that are not upon the
tax books and the presumption is
that no taxes are paid upon it. The
land is scattered all over the coun-;
ty, but it will be an easy matter to
locate it by the system employed by
Mr. Buchanan.
A record of all of the lots of land!
In the county is kept and by turning I
to the tax returns it is easy to see
what lots are given in and what are
not. In many instances, several
parties own fractions of a lot and
pay on it, though there may be a
fraction of the same lot that is not
returned. It will be necessary to
find out who, owns the balance of
the lot in ordew to collect taxes
upon it.
Mr. Buchanan in now* engaged in
finding out who the owners of the
m'ssing lands are. In the next
week or so, he expects to have all
of this missing land on the tax
books, thereby increasing values
something like a quarter of a mil
lion dollars from that cause alone.
COTTON MILLS
START AGAIN
New England Mills That Have
Been Shut Down will Be
gin Operation Monday.
New Haven, Conn., April 29—Cot
ton mills that have been on short
time for several months will start
on full time Monday.
Owing to the dullness in the mills
many of the hands have been ac
cepting free homes and other in
ducements of Canadian Land Com
panies and going to the North West.
Mr. Benjamin P. Jones gives five
reasons why he does not like auto
mobiles and all of them are good
reasons. The first one is they cost
so much to begin with, they cost so
much to keep up, they take so much
time from business, and they incul
cate habits of extravagance and are
dangerous to those who drive them.
EVERY DEMOCRAT FOR BILL
A Score of Republicans Will Proba
bly be for it Also.
Washington, April 29.—-With a
vote in prospect early next week the
House resumed the debates on the
free list bill today.
Practically every Democrat will
support the bill and a score of Re
publicans will vote for it.

The German-.*merlcan Doctors wish to announce that they

curable. They do not care to devote tf elr time to Incurable
diseases. Trey attribute their marked success at Jackson
ville to the fact that they relused to treat s veral cases that
others had treated, and promised to cure, that upon careful
examination proved to be incurable conditions.
