Woman Searches For Her Baby
A' negro woman named Mamie
Graham, ot Boston, lost a ginger
cake colored baby, three years old,
dreaaad In g blue cap and blue rom
pers, a tow days ago and efforts are
being made by partita In Thomas
county to lad tha child.
According to a story aant ont
from Thomasvllle, Mamie, Ilka a
good acnalbla woman, got on tha
train to coma to Valdoata to do bar
shopping. ‘ Tha baby was left on tha
outside of the coach with her hus
band. It la said that the car was
so crowded that the negro man could
not get In, ao he handed the child
to another woman through a win
dow and asked her to give It to
Mamie, hut the failed to do so.
When Mamie reached home from
Valdosta on a later train without
the baby, there was trouble In tha
house and efforts have bean mads
since then to find out what became
ot the child.
HEALTHY
Women who bear children and re
main healthy are those who prepare
their systems in advance of baby’s
coming. Unices the mother aids
nature in its pre-natal work theorists
finds her system' unequal to the de
mands made upon it, and she it often
left with weakened health or chronic
ailments. No remedy is ao truly a
help to nature os Mother's Friend,
and no expectant mother should fail
to nse it. It relieves the pain and
discomfort caused by the strain on
the ligaments, makes pliant and elas
tic those fibres and muscles which
nature is expanding, prevents numb
ness of limbs, and soothes the inflam
mation of breast glands. The system
being thus prepared by Mother's
Friend dispels the fear that the crisis
may not be safely met. Mother's
Friend assures a speedy and complete
recovery for the mother, and abe is
left a healthy woman to enjoy the
rearing of her
child. Mother’s lrnmiinnV

The conditions existing at both
the A C. L. and G. S. A F. depots
In our city Is a shame and disgrace
to this cqm.mun!ty. A visitor to
Valdosta arriving over the A. C. L
railroad Is confronted with a near-
beer saloon within twenty feet of
the white-waiting room of that
road. Coming over the O. B. A F.
re id, they have but to cast their
eyes across the tracks directly op
posite that depot and, lo and behold,
there are at least three near-beer
Joints. Ladles coming to our city
to do their shopping are forced to
come In contact with the lowest,
vilest and most corrupt aide of a

radically wrong with Its legislation.

county became part of crisp yester
day. A special act was Passed In
tha General Assembly last year al
lowing these two districts to be
come a part of Crisp provided that
thrwa-faurtha of the qualified voters
of tha proposed territory voted fav
orably to th# change. Aa election
was held la October, 1911, the re
sult being an almost unanimous
vote for the proposed ebange, only
twelve being cast In apposition. Tbs
Crisp county grand Jury at the last
session of the Superior Court voted
unanimously to receive the pro
posed territory, the fset being
legally advertised and the two dis
tricts are today In Crisp county.
Tha annexation of these two dis
tricts means an Increase In the pop
ulation of the county of over 3,000,
with the two thriving and prosperous
towns and a good citizenship. The
convenience of aaexatlon of these
people means much. Heretofore
they have had to go at least twenty-
fire miles to reach the county alto,
by driving through the countty by
rail to Albany, and as It la now
they are within ten miles ot the
court house with railroad facilities
and convenient schedules.
