unter with the favorite American breakfast delight. It would al-
Ihev were viewing the Marines and Sailors as though wondering
the food on which they grow so husky.
George missed the best part of the recent pancake treat at Lon-
Hut—he didn’t turn ’em personally. Everyone else is doing it
ag an extra edge on their appetites by manipulating the flipper.
M. A. cake-bakers were on the verge of prostration after
124 American soldiers amd sailors with pancakes in the first flf-
rush on this pet edible, when a hut secretary had a happy

Very Encouraging;
Much Appreciated
The following letter from Hon. R.
M. Johnson of Houston, Texas, Acting
governor of that state and the Editor
of the Houston Post, leading paper of
Texas, is greatly appreciated by the
editer of this paper. We don’t print
such letters very often, but when they
come from a man that has climbed
from the bottom to the very top of
journalism we can’t help from feeling
flattered by such a commendation. It
takes the sting out of some of the hard
things that the folks say that don’t
know what a newspaper is. In re
producing this letter we are compell
ed to say that we feel good over it,
appreciate it more than any letter we
have had recently:
October 18, 1918.
Mr. E. H. Griffin, Editor,
Post-Search Light,
Bainbridge, Ga.
Dear Mr. Griffin:
Enclosed please find $5.00 to cover
my arrears for subscription to your
paper and to continue it as long as
the balance will last.
By the way, I wish to congratulate
you on your paper. I regard it as
about the best weekly paper that
comes under my observation. I am
glad that dear old Bainbridge has
such a fine jouraalistic representa
tive. With all best wishes.
Very sincerely yours,
R. M. JOHNSON.

all that have charge of switches con
trolling bracket lights for street light

off at an early hour each morning. If
this is not done the City will have to
discontinue service for above named
lights.

The Dixie Steam
Laundry Wants Your
Regular Patronage
A HOME INDUSTRY—STRICTLY
AMERICAN.
Our plant is up-to-date in every re
spect. It has a capacity large
eneugh te take care of this entire
city and surrounding country. If you
have laundry it should come to us.
American investments should be kept
in mind regular. The citizens should
know as much about the plaoe their
laundry is done as they want to know
how and where their food is prepar
ed. Germs are found in plnees other
than food. If you knew that your
laundry was well boiled and then dried
in a room that is hot enough to kill 1
any germ, you would then be safe in
sending your clothes there. Without
a doubt there are places here at your
very door that are ill kept and a dan
ger to your life. <r
We first ask you to consider and if
you are aonvinced that we are right,
then send your laundry to us regular.
Our plant is open to you—you lire
welcome. No place is free from germs
when the operators are allowed to
cook and sleep in the same room where
the general laundry work is being
done. No germ can live through our
washing method. We want your bus
iness regular. We have prepared to
handle it. Do you think we should
do it?
Yours truly,
The Dixie Steam Laundry.
For Colds and Grippe
Follow Doctor’s Advice
Ask any physician or druggist and
he will tell you that the first step in
the treatment of a cold, cough, influ
enza, or grippe should invariably be
“a brisk calomel purgative, prefera
bly the nausealess calomel, called Cal-
otabs.” This alone is often sufficient
to break up a severs cold over night,
or cut short an attack of grippe and
possibly prevent pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tengue nt bed
time with a swallow of water,—that’s
all. No salt*, no nauseu nor the
slightest interference with your eat
ing, pleasures or work. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your en
tire system is purified and refreshed
Calotab® are sold only in original seal
ed packages; price thirty-five cents.
Recommended and guaranteed by
druggists everywhere. Price refund
ed if you are not delighted.—adv.
