SUFFERED FOR
TWENTY YEARS
“For twenty years I have suf
fered with catarrh in m.v head
and throat. Everybody who know
me, and I know a great many of
people, knows this to be a fact,”
said C. F. Cartwright, who lives
in Alton Park, Chattanooga, Tenn.
“Every night my head would
be so stopped up I could hardly
breathe, and I would have a
choking feeling and shortness of
breath that nearly drove me wild,
I guess I had catarrh of I he stom
ach, too, becausel had indigestion
most of the time. In fact I have
not had a well day for years, and
have been so nervous and restless
I simply dreaded to see night
come, because I could not sleep,
and to tell the truth, I was so
weak and run down I have not
been able to do any work for I
don’t know how long. No kind
of medicine, and I took nearly
every thing, seemd to help me a
particle until I heard of this Tan
lac. My son-in-law induced me
to try it, he said he had been
hearing lots about it.
“I have used two bottles of the
medicine, and am proud to say I
believe I am as well and strong
as I ever was. My appetite and
digestion have improved and I
am gaining right along. I sleep
good at night and can breathe
fine. Ino longer have those chok
ing, smothering sensations like
I used to have.
“Everybody certainly ought to
know about this medicine, for it
surely has done wonderfully for
me. The only thing I hate is
that I did not hear about it years
ago, as I believe it would have
aaved me lots of suffering.”

WRITES OF RICHARO SPEAKE,
A REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIER
A few days ago I wandered to
the hills and woods out in Iron
Springs district and out there
where the soft winds whisper
and the trees murmur, I came
across an old cemetery and in
looking through it we came to a
newly erected monument. And
thereon we found these words
-10 CENT “CASCARETS”
BEST LAXATIVE FOR
LIVER AND ROWELS
Don’t dtay constipated,
headachy, bilious, with
breath bad or stomach
sour.
No odds how bad vour liver,
stomach or bowels; how much
your head aches, how miserable
and uncomfortable you are from
a cold, constipation, indigestion,
biliousness and sluggish bowels—
you always get relief with Oasea
rets.
Don’t let your stomoch, liver
and bowels make you miserable.
Take Cascarets to-night; put an
end to the headache, biliousness,
dizziness, nervousness, sick, sour,
gassy stomach, bad cold, offensive
-breath and all other distress;
cleanse your inside organs of all
the bile, gases and constipated
matter which is producing the
misery.
A 10-cent means health,
happiness and a clear head for
months. All druggists sell Cas
carets. Don’t forget the children
—their little insides need a gentle
cleansing, too. adv
engraved: “Richard Speake,
3S. C. Mil., Rev. War.” And
there we paused and began to
soliloquize. Then all memories
came up from Valley Forge,
King’s Mountain and Bunkers
Hill, and then a whisper came
and said: “Here lies one who,
when battles raised each war
like band and carnage loud his
trumpet blew, gave his services
to the call of his country.”
And on some inquiry we find
that this newly erected monu
ment is the result of the efforts
of the Daughters of the American
Revolution, and the inscription
thereon has recently been taken
from the records of the War De
partment at Washington, D. C.
And on further inquiry we find
the following descendants of
Richard Speake in Butts countv:
Grandchildren, Joseph Jolly:
great grandchildren, W. D. Jolly,
Jesse T. Jolly, Mrs, J. D. Jones,
Mrs. Lucy J. Maddox.
In centuries to come no doubt
this sacred spot will be visited
and with tender hand-: a wreath
will be placed there in memory
of the one who went through po
lar snow and trod the burning
sand in defense of his native land
and country. “My country, ’tis
of thee I sing. ”

CONGRESSMAN HOWARD TO
PUSH ANTI-USURY bill
Washington, D. C., Jan. 15—
That sixty-six of ihe 144 national
banks in Georgia are among
those that are charging usurious
rates of interest on loans is one
of the disclosures that John Skel
ton Williams, comptroller of the
currency, will make Monday af
ternoon before the rules commit
tee of the house. Mr. Williams
will appear to urge a favorable
report of Congressman William
Schley Howard’s resolution con
cerning usurious interest charges
by national banks.
The rules committee expects
to devote most of Monday to a
hearing, and the Atlanta con
gressman professes confidence
that it will he reported favorably
following which it will be passed
by the house and the special com
mittee appointed by the speaker
to make the inquiry.
Comptroller Williams is ex
pected to recite an instance in
Georgia where a national bank,
dealing with a woman, charged
interest at the rate of 120 per
cent on a sllO loan for a period
of 30 days. She gave a horse as
security for the loan, and it is
reported that in a year’s time
she paid interest to this bank
more than the value of the horse.
On one occasion she borrowed
S2O for 48 days and paid in inter
est $12.50 or 253 per cent.

A Jackson Man
Gives Evidence
His testimony will interest
every reader
The value of local evidence is indis
putable. It is the kind of evidence we
accept as true because we know we can
prove it for ourselves. There has been
plenty of such evidence in the Jackson
papers lately, and this straightforward
testimony has established a confidence
in the minds of Jackson people that
will not be easily shaken.
Davis Kinard, of Davis Kinard &
Cos., Jackson, says: “I don’t hesitate
to recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills as
a good kidney medicine. My kidneys
were out of order and didn’t act regu

they relieved all signs of the trouble.’
