MEIGS AFFAIRS.
Town Stirred by Religious Revival.
Other News Notes.
(By J. S. Searcy.)
Straight Preaching.
The revival at the Methodist
church has closed. That there hnB
been some straight gospel preached
here cannot be denied. Pastor Q.
A. Davis, himself an untiring, conse
crated worker, has been assisted by
Rev. S. E. Grenfell of the Faircloth
Circuit and Evangelist W. F. Han
son of Glennville, Ga.
The work has been carried on in a
systematic manner, and a number of
accessions have been made to the
church.
The services have been well at
tended for the past ten days, some
time standing room not being avail-
able.
Revival Note*.
The fame of the preachers spread
and several who have dafkened the j
chnreh doors but few times in their
lives, have listened to the words of
truth as preached by these men of
God.
Sunday, at the morning service,
the pastor said that he would not
take the regular church collection,
but would give everybody an oppor
tunity to make a thank-offering by
laying what he pleased on the table
and as a result about $4 0 was rais
ed.
One of the telling features of the
meetings was the singing led by
Rev. S. E. Grenfell assisted by Miss
Fannie Clark of Ochlockonee, and
others. Mr. Grenfell has a stentor
ian voice, but soft enough to be
pleasant.
Uncle Andrew’ Laster, an old col
ored man, who has for a long time
kept what Is known as the "wine
house," and who lives near the
church, has been n constant listen
er during the meeting. A few even
ings 1 ago, standing outside, unknown
and unnoticed, he heard Rev. Han
son portraying man’s evil ways. The
nexRday he gave up his Job as wine
Heller* and declared that he would
never again put the bottle to his
neighbor’s mouth. He left Monday
to stay with his daughter at Fitzger
ald. He is about 87 years old, and
besides his wages as wine seller,
made a small sum in tho manufac
ture of straw brooms and scouring
mops.
Crop News.
Our folks are having plenty of gar
den truck, for the past ten days.
Squashes, cabbage, potatoes, peas,
beets,.radishes and the like. To be
sure* this is a great climate.
The potato bug, and the common
cut worms are playing havoc In their
lines. Cut worms do not confine
themselves to gardens, but are doing
untold damage to field crops.
The rainy and cold weather has
made it necessary to plant over
much of tho cotton in this section.
Seen is scarce and the land will
doubtless be seeded to pindars and
corn.
A Hen With Brass Buttons.
Besides the first melons of the
season, the biggest liar, double pig,
the cow that gives condensed milk,
and butter, we had a hen, that on
being killed yielded irom a number
of curios in her gizzard, a brass but-:
ton bearing "Columbus, Ga., Police,"
on It. Whether or not she was once
a member of the Columbus force is
not known.
Not Our Charlie. ,
Charlie Blackman desires us to
state that the case of the State vs
Charley Blackman, in Mitchell Su
perior Court for disturbing religious
worship Is not he. Our Charlie
Blackman is being brought up upon
a different basis and shows his rais
ing.

Relief from Rheumatic Paln«.
"I suffered with rbeumatl*"* fo-
over tw’o years," says Mr. Roliand
Curry, a patrolman, of Key West,
Fla. "Sometimes it settled In my
knees and lamed me so I could hardy
walk, at other times It w’ould be In
my feet and hands so I was Incapa
citated for duty. One night w’hen I
was In severe naln and lame from It,
my wife went to tho drug store here
anl came bdek with a bottle of Cham
berlaln’s Pain Balm. I rubbed with *
it and found the naln had nearly
gone during the night. I kept on
using It for a little .more than two
weeks and found that It drove the
rheumatism away. I have not had
any trouble from that disease for
over three months." For s^’e by

GREW MISS CARROLL'S HAIR
AND WE CAN
PROVE IT
j Beautiful Hair At Small Cost.
W ITHIN the last decade great end rapid etrldes have been made in
Materia Medica. Many disease, that were considered incurable
! fifteen years ago are now cured inafewday3,andiu many cases prevented
1 altogether. The acicntists of late years have been delving for the cause,
i the foundation, the reason and the starting point of disease, fully realizing
that the actual and true cause muat be ascertained before the remedy can
be located. Hair troubles, like many other diseases, have been wrongly
diagnosed and altogether misunderstood. The hair itself is not the thing
to be treated, for the reason that it ia simply a product of the acalp, and
i wholly dependent upon its action. The ccalp is the very aoil in which
the hair is produced,nurtured and grown,and it alone should receive the
! attention if result! are to be expected. It would do no earthly good to
; treat the stem of a plant with a view of nuking it grow and become more
beautiful—the aoil in which the plant grows must be attended to. There-
| fore, the acalp in which the hair grows must receive the attention if you
■ are to expect It to grow and become more beautiful.
Loss of hair is caused by the scalp drying up, or losing
its supply of moisture or nutriment, and when baldnesa
1 occurs the scalp his simply lost all of its nourishment,
leaving nothing for the hair to feed upon (a plant or even
I a tree would die under similar conditions).
’ \ The natural and logical thing to do in cither case is,
feed and replenish the soil or acalp as the case may be,
I and your crop trill grow and multiply as nature intended
] it should.
i Dr. Knowlton’s DANDERINE
is the only remedy for the hair ever discovered that is identical
1 with the natural hair foods or liquids of the scalp. It feeds and
i nourishes the hair and does all the work originally carried on by
the natural nutrients or life-giving juices generated by the scalp
I itself. It penetrates the pores ol the scrip quickly and the hair
; soon shows the effects of Its wonderfully exhilarating and life-
j producing qualities.
