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.

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.
