THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 1921. IN THE SPRING YOUR BLOOD NEEDSjV TONIC Winter Weakens Blood, Makes Faces Pale. Take Glide’s Pepto- Mangan THE BEST KNOWN BLOOD TONIC Drowsy Spring-Fever Feeling That Conies From Sluggish Blood W ill Soon Leave You. As all growing things on earth shoot into new life in Springtime, so ilo the billions of cells that make up each part of the body renew their vigor. As you open the windows, breathe the Spring air, and let in the sunshine, the red corpuscles in your blood should carry more oxygen to the tiny cells. The red corpuscles are tiny disc shaped particles, swimming in enor mous numbers in the blood. They carry oxygen to cells in all parts of the body, and they carry away worn-out waste matter. Sometimes, especially in the Spring, after the winter indoors and more or less sickness, the red corpus cles themselves need rebuilding. Gude’s Pepto-Mangan contains just the ingre dients to give them greater power to 'absorb oxygen and to distribute it throughout the body. That is why it is such a good Spring tonic. It. helps so much to bring back color to cheeks made pale and wan by the necessary indoor winter life. It adds to the number of red corpuscles. With tine Spring days and Gude’s Pepto-Mangan you gain in vigor and attain good health. Don’t go around drowsy this Spring. Take that good tonic, Gude’s Pepto- Mangan. You can get it in tablet form or in liquid form at your druggist’s. Both forms have the same medicinal Pepto-Mangan. Advertisement, value.

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy Nothing Good for a Cough or Cold. “Everyone who has used Chamber lain’s Cough Remedy speaks well of it." writes Edward P. Miller, Abbottstown, p a „ People who once use this prepara tion are seldom satisfied with any oth er. It is excellent to allay a cough or break up a cold. “SQUARE DEALWRITES ABOUT LOW PRICE FARM PRODUCTS—PLACES BLAME Editor News: If the Hon. J. J. Brown, Thos J. Shackelford, J. S. Wanuamaker and T. S. Johnson have been the cause of all of our calamities, earthquakes, cy clones, bankruptcies, suicides, etc., guess they are the cause of the selling price of a beef hide not being equal to the purchasing price of a pair of leath er shoe strings, as a farmer, who re cently tried it, was asked nine cents difference between the strings and hide. And because we were advised to hold our cotton, twm hundred pounds of wool, grown by the western farmer, will not purchase a sweater, the said sweater containing about two pounds of wool. And because they advised us to hold our cotton, Georgia cane syr up is selling for thirty-five cents per gallon, peanuts for two and a half cts per pound, eggs for twenty cents per dozen, cotton seed, corn and most farm products have slumped, exceeding the speed of a ton of fresh water eels slid ing down a greased pole. And while our farm products took the toboggan slide downward, taxes of all . kinds, freight and passenger rates, telephones, gas, tobacco, hardware, fertilizer, all either held their own or took a slide upward with equal speed. It is true that Brown, Johnson, and associates advised us to hold our cot ton until the cost of production was reached. It is equally true that about a year ago, we received a few car loads of advice from another source. Said advice, was for us to “buckle up ourselves, secure a hoe and spade and work, work, and WORK, and produce, which we did. The invisible advisers, who lived somewhere, would attend to the rest. And we are told through the ress, by no less authority than Mr. Wil liams, the supposed controller of our national currency, that a steady stream of money has been discriminately pour ed into the hands of the gamblers of New York, and that he has been una ble to get an equal amount turned into the legitimate channels, such as mer cantile and agriculture. And to sub stantiate his statement, you have only to observe the appearance of the few one-dollar bills that you may chance to seeAliey having a ragged and dirty appearance. We are also informed that while Brown, Johnson and Cos, advised us to “hold till we could get cost of production, our silver dollars were called in and melted, to the amount of one hundred million dollars and ship ped to our new cousins across the wa ter. And to substantiate this conten tion, that of late, a silver dollar is near ly as scarce as an open advocate of the league ,of nations. Oh you Brown, Shackelford and Wanuamaker, if you had known a trap was being set you could have turned the trick and advis ed the Dixie farmer to sell their boll weevil nines for six cents, the price that is l>eing offered today. Poor comfort to have the products of your toil set at starvation prices by a bunch of gamblers one thousand miles away and according to Mr. Wil liams, this bunch being singled out and bosnteously supplied with the peo ple’s money, those trusted officials high up playing to their hands, coldly re fusing to aid or encourage honest toil. Queer proposition that the willing crit ics are color blind to this. Square Deal. The Pneumonia Month. March is a typical pneumonia month and usually gives a high rate of mor tality for the disease. After a long and hard winter, the system loses much of its resistance and people grow careless. When every cold, no matter how slight, is given prompt and intel ligent attention, there is such less dan ger of pneumonia. It should be borne in mind that pneumonia is a germ dis ease and breeds in the throat. Cham berlain’s Cough Remedy is an expecto rant and cleans out the germ ladened mucus and not only cures a cold hut prevents its resulting in pneumonia. It is pleasant to take. Children take it willingly. ■ V i LODGE NOTICE Rainey Encampment No. 89 I. O. O. F. meets every second and fourth Sat urday nights in each month.

HTTEHPI TO EMI mmp_ PUBLIC Facts of Vital Interest to Everybody in Georgia Trying to Repeat Seattle Fiasco at the Expense of Tax Payers Just about one year ago the City of Seattle bought the Electric Street Railway operating on its streets, be cause the Street Railway Company could not continue operating its cars at 6 cent fares, and were prevented from increasing fares to meet in creased expenses, and because the ad vocates of Municipal Ownership as sured the public that the Company was making enormous profits and were exaggerating the expense of operation. The City chose the ac-i countants that the advocates of Muni cipal Ownership selected to appraise the value of the property. $15,000,600 for Car Lines Their accountants found that the street car lines in the City of Seattle had cost in money, actually cost— -515,000,000.00 The City paid for the Street Rail way by an issue of bonds amounting to $15,000,000.00, bearing 5% per an num interest. The City commenced operating the Street Railway without any taxes to pay; with no legal expenses to pay, because the City Attorney’s Office handled the legal business; with practically no damage suits to pay, as nobody could successfully collect damages from the City. Car Fares Advanced After a short experience in operat ing the street cars at 5 cents the fare was ad\ anced to 10c cash with tickets at 6y 4 c, but still the deficit continued to pile up, and the service continued to become worse. The Mayor and Council are now considering an advance in the street car fare to 10 cents cash with tickets at 8 l-3c. This increase is pending and probably will be adopted, but even it will only postpone the final complete breaking of the system, because of incompetent political man agement. The Municipal Street Rail ways are now $500,000.00 behind, and after December 10th, 1920, their em ployees are to be paid by the issuance cf City warrants; there will be an additional deficit January Ist, 1922, of $1,610,452.00. Sick of Their Bargain The City of Seattle, represented by its Mayor and Council, have recently been trying to get the original owners to take back the street railway sys tem and return the bonds which the City paid them. Suggestions that legal proceedings be instituted to force the original owners to do so are discouraged by the City Attorney, only because such an effort is in his opinion illegal. In the meantime the street car ser vice is curtailed, and the public is inconvenienced. The irresponsible agitators who ad vocated the purchase of the street railway by the City of Seattle have lost nothing, and they cannot be prosecuted or punished, or sued for damages, for misleading the public by their false statements as to the results of Municipal operation, but the citizens of Seattle have before them years of heavy taxation to take care of interest and the constantly increasing deficit caused by giving street car service at less than cost, and it will each day, each month and each year, continue to cost more and the service will continue to get worse. Experiment a Failure Seattle’s experiment in Municipal Ownership is a miserable failure. The people were first embittered against the Street Car Company by falsehoods and then the advocates of Municipal Ownership were able to ac complish their design, which was and always will be to, “Exploit the Pub lic”. The ultimate and secret creed of these people is to destroy the American system of Government and substitute socialism, and in Seattle they w.re cunning enough to induce the people to furnish them the money to work with. J Spend State’s Money Instead i of Their Own The same brand of cunning so cialists are preaching the same doc trine in Georgia, and they are plan ning to get ten times as much cf the Eublic money as their brethren got in eattle. They call it State and Muni cipal Ownership. They tell you of the water power development they would undertake with the State’s money, but they don’t tell you of any water power that they are going to develop with their own money. Their maps show many thousand* of horse power in Georgia yet unde veloped. Why do they come begging the State to allow them to raid the Treasury and use the money of the tax payers for theij experiment in socialism? IMPORTANT RELIGIOUS NOTICE State Evangelist, Rev. Geo. H.
