HOW TO RELIEVE
BABY’S COLD
In connection with the campaign
now going on to raise a Smileage
Fund of 9500.00 in Athens to provide. . .. - —
. . , . . ... i this community that are not liable to.„ „„
entertainment for our soldiers, the , _ . . .'Cash 1.00
people of Athens may not under
stand that the money raised here is
to be used to buy Smileage Books,
which will be sent to the boys who
have gone from this community. One
tlollur buys a Smileage Book con
taining twenty coupons, which will
furnish some soldier pleasure for a
good many evenings. These coupons
are good for admittance to the thea
tres built by the government and
have only high class shows and good
actors. >
As soon as we receive them from
the government, we shall be glad to
dt liver the Smileage Books to any
one subscribing to this fund and they
can send them directly to the boys;
or, It they have no definite friends
receive books, that we may send
some of the extra books, we will
have, to.
It Is a fine thing to know that you
have given 6ome fellow an evening
of pleasure, but when that fellow is
the boy who soon expects to leave
for France to fight for our country
and our homes, then that little deed
is magnified into a wonderful privil
ege
When this Job of raising 9500.00
was given us, our portion of the mil
lion dollar fund, the committee
thought it was a very little joh, but
we have been working four days and
we have only succeeded in raising
9182.00. It will take a great many
tens and five dollar subscriptions, as

JUDGE R. B. RUSSELL
PASSED THROUGH CITY
Judge ft. B. Russell spent last night
in the city on his way to Oglethorpe
ounty where he goes to argue a
contested election case before the
ordinary at Lexington.
Sotfrt'.time since a -municipal elec
tion, for mayor and council, waz held
in Crawford, the outgrowth being a
contest which has been carried to
the ordinary’s court for decision and
settlement.
The best plan Is to use a very mild ;
salve containing the correct propor
tions of the soothing, cleansing and.
antiseptic oils of Eucalyptus,''Winter- 'jjv 5 1 *
green. Menthol and Pinus Sylvostris,
with Camphor and refined petrolatum,.
All the drug stores now sell this mild
salve under the name of Eucapine
Salve. It is especially prepared for
the mother's use with her children and
sells for twenty-five cents for a large
family Jar.
The little tots enjoy Eucapine Salve
and soon learn to call for it by name
and doctor themselves when they
feel irritation of the nose and throat.
They consider it fan and it keeps their
noses and throat comfortable, clean,
sanitary and free from secretions and
germs. Eucapine Salve may be bad in
Athens at the drug stores of H. R.
Palmer & Sons and at other leading
lrug stores. Price twenty-five cents
or a large family Jar.—adv.
