LlOHT, a weekly newspaper published

during the year 1901. Jan. 10th. 1901.
A. W. FORDHAM.Sheriff.
Mayor Bridge* Smith, of Macon,
is writing some very readable matter
for the Atlanta Journal.
The long drouth in the West ha*
at last been broken and the people
of that section are more hopeful.
Tho office-seolters must be very
hungry and very thirsty to be open
ing a political campaign in this state
nearly two year* before the election.
The state fair will he held in Sav
annah this year, and it will be the
greatest exhibition ever known in
the state. Savannah knows how to
do it.
Notwithstanding the report* of a
short cotton crop, there will no doubt
he euough of the staple made to
supply the demand and keep a down
the price.
Hon. W’. O. Brantley ha* declined
to entor the race for gubernatorial
honors, but there are many other
favorite sons in south Georgia stand
ing “ready, willin’ and awaitin’ ”
The Allan a Constitution has re
duced the price of its daily edition to
$b.00 per annum, and, by the a ay,
that paper has been preaching some
sis inch democratic doctrine here
lately.
Is there anything much the matter
with the nigger? We think not. He
-makes a fair uitixen, arid, in many in
stances, a very good one. Better let
him go oil voting the democratic
ticket than to disfranchise him.
Of the three men now in the
race for the governorship, whose
“mugs” have appeared in the news
papers, Joe Terrell is decidedly tho
heat looking. Pope Brown and Du
Pont Guerry are not pretty a great
deal already.
Be ivuse lightning struck a Metho
dist church and a barroom at the same
time in a Texas town recently Henry
Riuliardson is led. to exclaim that
“lightning, like rain, Jails upon the
j ;st and the unjust.” And it do
look like it.
The Augusta Chronicle announces
that it has ceased to be a Bryan or-
gau. Let the Augusta paper now
become an organ for a muted dem
ocratic party upon a platform of old
time democratic principles, and all
will be well.
It may be possible that the three
candidates now aunouuced for gov-
enor will wear themselves out be-
iorc the primary election next spring.
Then another boss may be brought
on the track. In the meantime let
Toro, Dick and Harry be “spoken of.”
South Georgia persists in its desire
to become the gubernatorial belt.—
Atlanta Journal. Yes, we think
North Georgia has worn the guber
natorial belt long euough and expect
to see it tried on a South Georgia
man next. It will look better and
ill better, too.
Col. J. H. Kstill, of the Savannah
Morning News, is anno.meed as a
candidate for governor of Georgia.
Col. Bstill is a loyal democrat, a
practical, conservative, successful
man, and If the people of the state
honor him with the high office of
chief Executive he, in retuun, will
give to the state a wise and econom
ical administration.

HICKS’S
Hygienic
Self-
Treatment.
Whlaham, Ga.. July 3rd. 1901.
Mr. K. L. Hick?, Bainbridge, Ga :
Dear Sir—I write merely to express to
you my gratitude for curing my rupt
ure. Eighteen months’ ago. you will
remember you fitted a truss on me and
irave me full directions for Self Hygienic
Treatment.. The rupture had been giv
ing me untold trouble for a year. It lias
uot troubled ine a day since 1 took the
treatment. Yours gratefully,
K. A. Connell. Ex-representative
Decatur County.
The above Is only one of a vast num
ber of the testimonials I, have received
since I mastered this branch of the drug
bnsiadss. Some of my most remarkable
cures have been right here in the city
of Bainbridge.
Will this proces cure all cases?
1 believe it will.
Have I made any failures ?
Many.
Why t
Because it is the unalterable determin
ation of some people never to take anv
treatment which is not saturated with
humbug and superstition and robbery.
My process is in accord with the phi
losophy of common sense and nat.ui-al
law. But it costp effort and . self-denial
and perseverance; wherefore many give
up the treatment before it has had a fair
trial.
I Have opened a FIRST-CLASS Grocery Store next to nt i
on West street and handle only The Best Goods in my hoe. ~
Store Rent nor Clerk Hire to Pay; Therefore, I can sell you
CO&t cheaper than other merchants.
By permission 1 refer to Mr. Snlnev
Blassengame of Bainbridge. When 1
fitted a truss on him he was suffering
accutely with rupture on both sides. He
was made comfortable-hi a few minntes
aud was entirely cu*ed- in less than ten
days. He then laid aside his truss and
has not worn it since, That war nearly
two years ago.
■ But the most remarkable cure I hftve
ever known was thecaseof Allen Squire,
a colored blacksmith on Water street,
this city. On account of his advanced
age. 65 veers, I feared his case was hope
less. nut a complete cure was effected
and he we* able to lay aside his truss in
less than three months. This was over
a vear ago And be has had no symptom
or a return, of this; trouble.

A Cue of 11 Y#ars Standing Cured.
Bainbridge. Ga.. July 8th. 1901.
1 had rupture of eleven years stand
ing. Mr. Hicks fitted me with a truss
and instructed in a series of exercises—
also diet* 1 was made comfortable as
soon as the truss was fitted on and got
well and laid aside the truss in less than
two weeks. This was nearly two years
