[ e «t Farm Loan Concern in Southwest Georgia.” ' ‘ ppLHAM, GEORGIA. A headline reads, “women Get Men’s Wages.” Certainly they do. About the only way to pre vent that occurence is for the man to go to bed last and get up first.—Lavonia Times. Suppose you never heard tell of the fellow that had to ante, whether he went to bed first, last or at all, did you? car IRC (earns lHattimj prtUij: w\ $ W ■ Mary:--- told ycu that you v/ould thank me for urging |to get new linoleum for your kitchen.

IP, S. Weren’t the prices reasonable on our !eum and matting at iNE FURNITURE COMPANY Blnbriege, ... Georgia. In the person of Mr. R. M. Bower, of Shellman, we believe Randolph county will have a faithful and efficient representa tive. He is conservative and conscientious. Mr. Bower de feated a mighty good man. Rev. W. D. Hammack. Uncle Billy is such a useful man that the voters decided he couldn’t be spared from the county. —Cuth- bert Leader. Said R. M. Bower being in the original package a Decatur coun ty product, he is obliged to make good. The early breathing of Decatur county air made him dependable to start with. Judge Newt Morris demonstra ted that he could come back. He was elected judge of the Blue Ridge circuit Tuesday over his old opponent. Judge Patterson. Herbert Clay was re-elected.— Macon News. Yep; Newt has got a job and the people of the Blue Ridge cir cuit have got a bombastic tyrant that is a disgrace to’ the state. A judicial jackass that would not grace a “mullet supper.” Dick Russell is no doubt con vinced that the people of Geor gia are tired of him running in every election. In his race for congress he did not carry a sin gle county.—Macon News. Well, in a few years Dick will have enough voters in his own home to ^iect him to any job he wants. Freezing Temperature Coal Famine Great Suffering Head lines like the above will be read next winter. Bainbridge will probably not have freezing temperatures, but Bainbridge homes will all need Coalj and from present indications Coal may be hard to get next winter.

We are still fretted with those folks up there in the Cherokee circuit for what they did to Judge Fite Tuesday.—Macon News. We are not. Our only objec tion is that they could not ram him any more than they did. That gink has made more Geor gia men hang their heads in shame over the state judiciary than any man that ever sat on it except Newt Morris. If you want to help your home paper in its fights for existence against exorbitant prices for paperand all sorts of material, pay your subscription. If you are behind pay up, if you are paid up, pay a year in advance. The weekly paper never before had to contend with just such a situ ation as now confronts it and it is going to take clear sailing with a steady hand to avoid the rocks. —Walton Tribune. We have just noticed that Brown, of the Richland News is a mail carrier. We knewtnat something was the matter with him but we thought it was just plain old printers itch, did not have any idea that he was part of the government and cid not have to work for a living.— Bainbridge -Post-Searchlight. Now don’t get it in your noodle bud that government em ployees do not have to work. To those on the outside it may seem like a cinch but to the poor old rural carrier who must face th sleet and snows, suffer the heat of summer and blizzards ot winter day after day, for six to ten hours each day to serve his people it certainly is no gravy train. Yet with all these hard ships there are many happy re turns for the carrier. As he winds his way along the lone some road there are always some of the little folks or grown ups who are there with a pleasant word and smile, very often little hand out, a cold glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee awaits the carrier now and then. On picnic days, birthdays, Christ mas and other days of big times for the rural folks the carrier is always made one of the family and usually gets his plate of goods eats with the rest of them. When sickness and sorrow en ters any of the homes along the route—the carrier is made sad toor He snatches a few minu tes from Uncle Samuel and sheds a tear with those in trouble; when goods times come he is there too. When weddings are pulled off on our route he is usually a “shining star.” When baby comes is somestimes honor ed with the pleasure of naming the little rascal. There is where we shine (especially the little pickaninnys.) Tosomewehave attached the names of Woodrow, Abraham Lincoln. Jefferson Davis, Ulysess Grant, Hoke Smith etc., and the biggest han dle we have ever placed on a little coon was Thomas Ferdidy Christopher Holmes Andy Peter George Washington Jones—but listen bub, we have never dis- 1 graced one with such a title as j “Joe Brown.” We could go on S for three or four columns featur- | ing the many hardships and the ; pleasures of w orking for Uncle jSammie but space and time pre- : vents—but don’t keep the idea i in your head, Griff, that Uncle Sammies’ employees do not work or earn their salrries. A print- : ing office is hard enough but it | is a haven of rest compared to being a rural carrier in bad weather.—Richland News. Oh well we see now that with all these duties on a fellow that you do have to work old scout. Tne squid wes only a matter of pleasantry. The scribe has been one of the post office clerks in in his day and knows some thing of the job. is over lets pay yoursubscriptionL what say you?—Richland News. Oh buba, they never get that enthused over any thing but are more inclined to stop thier paper if you don’t vote as they indicate. We want to express thanks for a basket o f scuppernongs, a pitcher of buttermilk, six stalks of sugar cane, a sack of apples, a plate of fresh tomatoes, a pan ful of okra, a dozen ears of young corn, a juicy sirloin veal steak, two rides in a Ford, six dopes, and an invitation to attend a school opening a t Graymont. Who wouldn’t be a country edi tor.—Swainsbore Forest-Blade. A few more attentions like this, then allowed to get out will crowd the business and flood the country with that thing known as a country editor. A WAV OF DIVERSION. The candidate will shake your hand and squeeze it till you hol ler. He'll slip you smokes of pure rope brand, at sixty lor a dollar. He’ll slap your back and then he’ll say: “Well, how’s the wife and kids to-day?” He’ll soon convince you you’re 0. K., a gentleman and scholar. Election day will come around. You’ll vote for him with pleasure. Per haps with victory he’s crowned. Soon after, at your leisure, an audience with him you’ll seek. He’ll say to come again next week. You’ll sneak away in man ner meek—astonished, in a meas ure. You’ll vow you’ll have re venge on him. He’s rude and you dislike him. You’ll help to make his chances slim next time he runs—you’ll spike him by voting for the other man and lending all the aid you can. He’s out. On him you’ve put a ban. Just wait—you’ll not be piking. Election time will come once more. He’ll meet you and he’ll thunder: “I didn’t dream that you were sore. Somebody’s made a blunder. You’re absolutely right,” he’ll say. Well, how’s the wife and kids?” He’ll get your vote and you’re a jay while he—well, he’s a wonder.—Ex- ceange. This guy has surely been ob serving • something as he went down the pathway of life if ever a man did. Calomel Salivates and Makes You Sick Acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver and you loose a day’s work There’s no reason why a per son should take sickening, sali vating calomel when 50 cents buys a large bottle of Donson’s Liver Tone—a perfect substitute for calomel. It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calomel, but it does not make you sick and can not salivate. Children and grown folks can take Dodson’s Liver Tone be cause it is perfectly harmless. Calomel is a dangerous drug. It is mercury and attacks your banes. Take a dose of nasty calomel today and you will feel weak sick, and nauseated to morrow. Dorit loose a day’s work. Take a spoonful of Dodson’s Liver Tone instead and you will wake up feeling gaeat. No more bili ousness, constipation, sluggish ness, headaches, coated tongue or sour stomach. Your druggist says if you don’t find Dodson’s Liver Tone acts better than the horrible calomel your money is waiting for you.
