CHIEF OF POLICE
00T ill FACTS
Popular Official Was Con
fined to Bed Three
Months. Now Hale and
Hearty Since Taking
Tanlac.
If there is a man in Macon who
is universally known and liked,
that man is Geo. Samuel Riley,
the popular and efficient Chief of
folice of that city, Chief Riley
has been prominently identified
with Macon’s public affairs for
a number of years, and is highly
esteemed and respected for his
high character and integrity by
all who know him. in an inter
esting interview with Dr. W. B.
Logan at the Taylor-Bayne Drug
Company Thursday morning,
Chief Riley said: v
“I came to Macon when I was
only a 16-year-old boy from Hous
ton county, and have been living
here for 38 years. I have always
enjoyed every good health, and
have been what you would con
sider a strong, healthy man.
Last June I was taken very sick,
and was confined to my bed for
three months with a trouble that
developed into pleurisy with
serious complications, and I had
to undergo several operations.
For a while I was entirely help
less.
“Aftei getting out my right
side continued to pain me. My
Mv breath would get short,
and I had terrible pains and
swellings in mv legs and feet
and catching pains in my back.
This trouble made me very ner
vous and I lost sleep. To tell
you the truth, I was in mighty
bad shape and nothing in the
way of medicine seemed to do
me much good.
“My kidneys bothered me a
great deal and my whole sys
tem seemed to be filled with
Uric Acid poison. For a while
I had little control over my kid
neys and this bothered me a
great deal. Like everybody else
I got to reading about Tanlac
and decided to give it a trial.
I can understand now why every
body is praising this medicine,
for it helped me right from the
start. The pains in my side
have left me entirely and I now
have control over my kidneys.
The swellings have all gone
down and I feel like a now man
in every way.
"Yes, sir, this Tanlac just
filled me with new life and
energy and I feel more like my
self than in months. Everyone
has noticed the wonderful im
provement in my condition and
I am only to glad to say a good
word for Tanlac. I had taken
medicines every since I was
taken sick and nothing seemed
to help me, • but two bottles of
Tanlac has put me on my feet
and I feel like myself again.”
Tanlac is sold in Bainbridge
exclusively by Willis Drug Co.,
in Donalsonville by the Palace
Drug Co; Climax by the Climax
Pharmacy; Iron City, by Strick

take the place of cotton in the

II REMEDY FOR
MU. WEEVILS
After having many fakes pre
petrated on them, the cotton pro
ducers seem at last to be facing
the prospects of an effective re
lief from the boll weevil. Of
course there has always been a
remedy in the methods of the
farm demonstrators whereby a
partial crop can be raised, but
the new remedy seems to pro
mise a full crop and destruction
and expulsion of the pest so
hazardous in the past.
The most convincing evidence
of the lack of fake in the remedy
produced by a local man is that
it is not being offered for sale
and no effort is being made to
exploit it among the farmers
until a thorough demonstration
i has been made of it another
| year. This year’s trial was con-
' vincing in every respect and
next year it is proposed to try in
still a larger scale.
The remedy, whose chemical
analysis is not made piAlic, is a
harmless looking substance and
the smallest application kills a
boll weevil in a few seconds, and
when sprayed on a stalk full of
them they immediate take their
departure. These two facts have
been demonstrated repeatedly
here in Bainbridge in the last
few weeks and all who have
seen the demonstration are con
vinced.
Furthermore it has been tried
on growing cotton and proved
to entirely effacious in prevent
ing the ravages of the pest. A
small tract was tried this year
after the weevils had gotten into
the cotton to the extent that all
of the first bolls were destroyed.
The stalks thus treated made a
splendid top. crop, some having
as many as two dozen bolls well
matured and full of cotton.
Next year it is understood that a
ten acre field of cotton will be
grown under this treatment with
a view to showing that the plan
is feasible on a large scale.
It is believed that this weevil
remedy can be made cheaply
enouge to render it entirely
practical as a means of relief of
the past. The genius of man has
risen superior to almost every
pest with which crops have had
to contend and it is not to be
doubted that the boll weevil will
succumb to the same influence,
and that this influence should
have its beginning in Decatur
county is not impossible. If this
remedy does prove successful
and practical, and of this its
owner and all who have seen it
are sanguine, the production of
cotton will be revolutionized.
SOMETHING CONVENIENT
In this issue is found the an
nouncement of the Callahan
Hotel in which they are speci
alising on the Sunday (pinner
problem. This is a new depar
ture of the Callahan but it
seems to be one that Iwill meet
with the approval and the con
venience of the small family
A small family or a man with
one child can get a splendid
dinner for less money than it
would cost him to prepare it at
home and the wife has a chance
to enjoy it. Few ladies enjoy
a meal when they have to work
their heads off preparing it and
this announcement of the Calla
han means that the women will
get a chance to enjoy their Sun
day dinner. The menu as an
nounced in this opening state
ment of the Callahan looks
mighty good for a dinner for the
fellow that loves good eating.
The registration books of the
city of Bainbridge are now open
in the office of the Clerk. All
qualified voters are given notice
that the books will remain open
during the month of November.
