This one of the best prices ever ob tained for a chicken native to Musco gee county, and shows that fariqy fowls of the best quality can be breu in Georgia. Greensboro. —The grand jury of Greene county, in returning its gen eral presentment in open court stron ly recommended that the grave of Governor Peter Early remain in Greene county, where his body has rested for nearly a century. The jury also indorsed the cattle quarantine law, and pledged the co-operation of the citizens of the county to the state and federal government in its en forcement. From the presentments, the county is entirely out of debt, and has SII,OOO to its credit. Athens. —Two bank presidents and a cashier, directors and no telling how many stockholders have been the objects of charges by the police of Athens in the past week— baled into recorder’s court to pay lines for violating the new traffic or dinance passed by council, requiring teams and machines to drive to the right and to have lights on all autos after dark. Sixty-one cases in all have been made in the past twenty days by the specially detailed police officers. Summerville. —Following the finding of a package of papers belonging to the Bank of Lylerly sewn in a mat tress in the home of Mark McXew, four miners were lodged in jail here charged with the spectacular dyna miting the bank and the theft of $4,000. The four under arrest are Mc- New, Jerry Wilson, the latter's broth er, Son Wilson, and Henry Hilburn, the last two being little more than boys. Detectives who arrested the men claim that their prisoners are also responsible for the robbery of the Bank of Summerville a year ago. Macon. —That middle Georgia has experienced the best fruit weather in her history during the present winter and that the indications are that the crop of peaches this year will be ab normal in this section of the state, was the statement made by E. J. Wil lingham of Macon, one of the largest glowers in the state, who has just returned from a ten-day visit to bis orchards at Byron. “This little w r arin spell w r e have been having has had no effect whatever,” said Mr. Willing ham. “The critical period for the peach growers will come within the next sixty days, but it will take a spell of ten days of real summer weather, followed by a freeze, to do any material damage.” Griffin. —The people of this city are elated over the splendid pros pects of securing the next session of the Georgia Confederate reunion, which will be held some time during the summer months. The combined efforts of the Spalding county Con federate veterans and the United Daughters of the Confederacy, back ed by the board of trade and the city council, have secured from State Commander Preston of Macon, the assurance that Griffin is held in high esteem by those who have the au thority to determine where the re union shall be held. The letter from Commander Preston indicates that Griffin will, in all probability, be the city selected for the great gathering this year. Rome. —It became known here that erquest for the appointment of a re ceiver for the State Mutual Life In surance company of Georgia, with headquarters here, has been filed with Judge Ben Hill, of the superior court in Atlanta. The petition was filed by J. E. Lockridge and E. E. Tanner, holders of approximately $20,009 worth of the company’s inter est-bearing certificates. There are said to be approximately $1,300,000 worth of these certificates iu ail. The company is said to have assets amounting to about $3,000,000. Cop ies of the rule nisi were served on officers of the company here, calling on them to appear before Judge Hill in Atlanta on February 24tli, and show cause why a receiver should not be appointed. Tallapossa.—Joe Sanford, wanted in Haralson superior court for moon shining and other charges, made a spectacular escape from officers here. The man had been taken from a mid night train and carried to a room, because his clothing was wet and officers thought best not to put him in jail in the wet clothing. The of ficers guarded him until early in the morning, and seeing him asleep the officers left for a few minutes. When they returned the man was gone, and a rope made of the bed sheets hang ing from a second story window told the tale. Sanford had : eft his cloth ing, but wrapped himself in two good blankets for protection against the air of the morning, which was almost freezing. He is wandering in the woods near Tallapoosa, and people who saw him believed him a crazy man and did not molest him. Milledgeville.—A farm demonstra tion agent for Baldwin county has been appointed by the state college of agriculture to begin work here. R. S. Blackwell of Morgan county, has been named for the position. He is a graduate of the college demon stration class and has had consider, able other training and experience. It is expected that the farmers here will derive great benefit from the work of the demonstration agent who will begin his work in earnest in a few days, going from farm to farm and starting farmers out ou uew and approved lines of farming.

Renfroe, Ala. —"I want to make a statement for publication,” says Mrs. Ollie Owens, of this place, “as it may be the means of relieving some poor, suffering woman. I suffered terribly for years with many serious womanly troubles, and became so weak and nervous, I could hardly do anything. I had headaches, pains in my back and sides, and was always going to the doctor, but never felt well. Finally, my husband bought me two bottles of Cardui, the woman’s tonic. I commenced taking it, according to directions, and began feeling better. I am now on my eighth bottle, and feel better than I have in years. I sleep soundly, have a good appetite, and no more pains. I never get tired of telling what your medicine has done for me, and I am sure it will help other suffering women, as It did me. Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and Thedford’s Black-Draught liver medi cine, are the only medicines we keep in the house.” If you suffer from any of the trou bles so common to weak women, Try Mrs. Owen’s advice —take Cardui. For more than 50 years, Cardui has been used with entire satisfaction, by thousands of weak and ailing women. It will surely help you, too. N.

Queer English Duty. Americans will be interested to know that from 1660 it has been cus tomary to take a duty as one of the hereditary customs of the crown. In 1660 there was a duty of eight pence a gallon on all the tea liquor sold in all coffee houses —a great inconveni ence to tea drinkers, because it was surveyed only twice a day by the ex cise officers, and so could only be brewed twice a day.—London Mail. rvrjr «■' - r/V » /7/ J / - «» '#» e» v * >t* ft* ft t fJ> / C: .41 O , T' <5- £3>>~ * rv/.venV no Afzrvv- ■ / 9 00 Props ALCOHOL-3 PER CENT AVegetable Preparafion for As similating the Food and Regula ting the Stomachs and Bowels of Infants/Children Promotes Digestion,Chcerful nessand Rest Contains neither Opium,Morphine nor Mineral Not Narc otic Peep, cfOtd DrSAMVEI MCPEP Pumpkin Seed • Alx Stun a - \ Pochette Salts • Anise Steel * Pppermint • \ fliCnrfonaUSeeUf ( Harm Seed - * I Ctarffied Suyar tftnbryretn Flavor / A perfect Remedy for Constip ation , Sour Stomach,Diarrhoea, Worms .Convulsions .Feverish ness and LOSS OF SLEEP FacSitnile Signature of C&AjVtZSI* The Centaur Company, NEW YORK At 6 months old 35 Posts -35 c ENTS ! kVi Guaranteed under the Foodanj, Exact Copy of Wrapper This Coffee is Never Sold in Bulk!

Bishop McDowell tells a story about a southern baptism. A colored preach er was dipping his converts in the wa ters of a tropical stream when one old darkey saw a crocodiile sunning him self on the opposite bank. When his turn came to be immersed he drew back, casting terror-stricken eyes at the sleeping saurian. “What’s de mattah wid yo’, brud der,” said the parson; “yo’ all ain’t skeered o' dat dar gator, is yo’?” The darkey admitted frankly that he was. “Don’ yo’ all ’ member de story oh Jonah an’ de whale, an’ how de whale dun spit up Jonah on de shoah?” “Yes, passon, Ah ’members erbout Jonah. But dat whale dun hab a con science. Dat ’gator looks lak he might go to sleep an’ fergit all erbout me.” Alabama Man Says Tetterlne Cures Eczema. Morvln, Ala., August 1, 1908.
