Nusbaum, Batesville, Indiana, writes: “Last year 1 suffered for three months with a summer cold so dis tressing that it Interfered with my business. I had many of the symp- tons of hay fever, and a doctor s pre scription did not reach my case, and 1 took several medicines which seem ed to only aggravate my case. For tunately I insisted upon having Fol ey’s Honey and Tar in the yellow package, and it quickly cured me. My wife has since used Foley’s Honey and Tar with the same success." Brad ford's Drug Store. LETTER TO JNO. W. SUTTON, Odartonn, Ga. Dear Sir: Suppose you’ve got 200 cows; how much will you take for calves and milk of 100 of ’em next year—you pick out the 100? How much for the other 100? 5 The point Is: cows are not all alike, and you know* which Is which. It is so with paint. You’ve got one best cow in that herd. There are 200 different paints in the United States; and one best. You know your best cow; we know the best paint. The best cow is the one that gives the best calves and inilk. The best paint is the one that covers most sur face and stays there longest—neither paint nor cow goes by color—nobody asks whether Holstein or Jersey is better to look-at. 10 gallons Devoe will cover your barn and wear 10 years; it’ll take 15 of another paint, and that paint’ll wear 5 years. Reckon costs. Devoe: 10 gallons $1.75, $17.50; about 10 days’ work $3, $30; the job, $47.50 for ten years; $4.75 a year. The other: 15 gallons $1.60, $24; about 15 days’ work $3, $45; the job, $69 for five years; $13.- 80 a year. Devoe $4 75 a year; the other $13.80 a year.

DON’T FIT IT OFF LONGER. Get Rid of That Indigestion at Once by Using Ml-o-na. Many people In Cedartown are slow ly iioisonlng themselves by chronic Indigestion. Their neglect to cure sluggishness of the Important organs of digestion fills the system with fer menting and decaying food that re sults In sick headache, heartburn, bad taste in the mouth, and many other symptoms. Ml-o-na stomach tablets are for the special relief of such suffers. They quickly cure the worst cases of Indi gestion and when used a few days the pain and distress often felt aifter meals will disappear. Mi-o-na stomach tablets cost but 50 cents a box and do more good than a dozen boxes of the ordinary digestive tablets. T. F.

The Grand Jury for the August Term resi ot tfully offer the following Pr< sentments: 1. We call the attention of our fel low citizens to a growing disregard of law In our county. The moral tone of the county seems to bo lower than it has been for a score of years. Not less than one dozen felony cases have been indicted by this body. Human life seems not to be denr in the Htghl of many. The whiakeyites and the pistol toter are In abundant evidence. There are cases of crimes and misde meanors in which the moral proof is clear, yet there is a lack of legal evidence. , There is a wide spread disregard of the Sabbath. A man under the cover of a frying pan and a fried sausage sets up a so-called restaurant and pro ceeds to sell the raw materials that are not necessary to the comfort and well-being of man. The spirit of gain on the Lord’s day disregards the law of decency and worship. We recom mend that the city and county officers be more positive in enforcing the law that forbids the selling of those things on Sunday that are not necessary. W believe that livery stubles have no more right to make gain and labor on the Sabbath day than the farmer or the merchant. Horses and vehi cles should not be let except in cases of mercy. Men need the rest of Sun day. We find that the finances of the county are In a sound condition. The roads of the county have been much improved and we believe our Commissioners are doing the best they can and have the interests of all at heart. We ask that the people will be patient, for we feel assured that every road will be put In order as fast us possible. We recommend that work be begun at once where a stream crosses the road in Collat’d Valley, and on ac count of an engorgenn nt under the bridge the watt r has been pouch d for the distance of six hundred yards a- bove the bridge. The water now does not pass under the bridge, and brush and logs are rifted against the bridge. This bridge Is near the old Whatley place on the Cartersvllle road. This work we regard as immediate. After a rain footmen cannot pass over this stream, and wagons have a difficulty in getting safely over the bridge. We find that there are several leaks In the roof of the Court House, which, If not looked after Immediately, will do much damage to the building. We recommend the Immediate repair of the roof. We also find that the jail Is too hii all for the amount of prisoners kep theiein, and as a jail is not for the punishment of the prisoner,but a place of safe keeping of the prisoner until he can have a trial, we therefore rec ommend that the jail be enlarged und provided with cots, closets, etc., so as to make it as comfortable as possible, .both for the prisoner and the jailer. We find that the juil Is kept as neat as possible under Its present condi tion. We also recommend that a new curb and shelter be placed over the well In the Jail yard. We find four Inmates at the Pauper Farm, three white and one black, all doing well and well satisfied with the fare. The negro is quite sick, sent from the ore bed there. We find thir teen acres in cotton and thirteen In corn and five acres In peas that will average with other crops on mine grude of land. We also find seven or eight gallons of old syrup,five bushels of old corn and fodder to feed until new fodder conies In. We also find one acre of very fine cane to be made up for the farm. The Superintendent informs us that he has deposited $33 in the bank for the county. We rec ommend that the Commissioners let the Superintendent haul the manure from the county stables to put on the farm, as he says he will do the haul ing free of charge. The Grand Jury recommend that the bounty Commitsionc rs proc* ed at once ,o erect coping of cement around the Court House and Confederate Mortu- m nt. all the ground included; that the contract be let to the lowest bid der. and that the cost shall not ex ceed $500. The Commissioners shall deteimine the proper height and width of the cement blocks, to be put on a concrete bed. Continued on fouith pa 3 e. How lo Avoid A |ipHiullcii ♦*».

D. Williams, 107 West Main 8t., says: "I appeal to all per sons with weak lungs to take Dr. King’s New Discovery, the only rem edy that hns helped me and fully comes up to the proprietor’s recom mendation.” It saves more lives than all other throat and lung remedies put together.

There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum bling sound or Imperfect hearing,and when It is .entirely closed, deafeness is the result, and unless the Inflam mation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Fend for cir culars free. F. J. CHENEY & CO. Toledo, O.
