Eat your crow
And let it go,
Everybody couldn’t win,
Doncher know?

and-seek game.
Can the can, swat the fly and
clean up. paint up.
Are you co-operating in the
clean city movement?
Great is the paint up. clean up,
look up. cheer up, pay up idea.
With politics out of the way
let everybody get busy for the
fair.
In less than a month the Great
Drouth will set in throughout the
state.
In talking about nerve don’t
forget to give the "Augusta
Spirit" high rank.
Well, every candidate couldn’t
win. That was settled before
the first announcement was
made.
Now that the election is over,
Let’s, be friends, and declare
To push and pull together
For the Butts County Fair.
Four years is not so long to
wait. The defeated candidates
—and they’re in the majority —
can come again.
Sure, Jackson’s going to have
a winning baseball team this sea

you sons of swat.
Anybody who wants a leg of

The Dixie highway is the best
leg show of the season.
The American soldier is the
best fighter in the world. The

Everybody is in favor of corn

Compulsory education is coming

WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS
The iso: vows system is the alarm system
' human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
i' have a network ot uerves, but wheu
health is ebbing, when strength is declin
ing, the same nervous system gives the
. ftarui in headaches tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability ami unless corrected,
' Vr*cls straight to a breakdown.
•‘To correct nervousness, Scott’s Ktmil
samu is exactly what you should take; its
vd* nutrimept .gets iuto the blood and
rich blood teetls the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
•US tuic force. It is free from alcohol.

MY HOME TOWN
(National Hardware Bulletin)
I Believe in My Town. I believe in her people, in her
boys and her girls. I will make mvself a committee of one
to make of this a good place in which to live and a mighty
hard place to leave.
I Believe in My Town. I believe in her institutions, in
her schools, in her churches and her stores.
I Believe in the street broom, and in the street sweep
er, and in the paint pot. I believe in ne’er an empty can
on vacant lot but many a full one in the larder. Never
again will I throw waste paper or rubbish in the street or
alley.
I Believe in My Town. I believe in trees, God’s first
temples, grass instead of ash heaps, and flowers instead
of weeds. May God bless the tongues that give honest
praise and commendations, and may He doubly bless the
ear that is deaf to scandal and gossip. If I cannot speak
good of my neighbor I will hold my peace. When it costs
me nothing at least, I will spend my money here, and bv
so doing leave a part of the purchase price to circulate in
the channels, where its equivalent in wealth was originally
created, to do good among the folks who are a part of the
community of which I am a part, in the place that I call
home, sweet home.
I Believe in My Town.
NOW FOR BUSINESS
Everybody is glad the political
campaign in Butts county is over.
There is no denying the fact
that politics demoralizes business
and the public, including the can
didates themselves, will breath a
sigh of relief at the cessation of
political turmoil.
Now the people can get down
to business without interruption.
The vigorous handshaking is over
for a spell and business will pro
ceed along the usual lines. It
would be better for all concerned
if the political campaigns were
considerably shortened.
The winners in Wednesday’s
primary will receive the congrat
ulations of the people. Those
who failed to be nominated are
good men and true. It was the
will of the people, the choice of
the voters. Every man should
be satisfied with the result. Butts
county for the next four years
will be served by honest, capable
and intelligent officials who will
do their duty as they see it. They
are your choice, the people's
choice, and as public servants
should have the co-operation of
every voter in the county.
Politics has had its inning. The
issue has been settled.
Now for business.
PaA&eke, he&dadhe, I
Thousands cf the best women A; j
the world arc bearing the burden of
backache, headache, dragging pains, a
miserable half-dead, half-alive condi
tion, produced by chronic internal de
rangements. Mrs. Joseph Lacclle, 124
.Glenora Ave., Ottawa East, Ontario,
Canada, is one of the fair women of
America who has had her experience with this sort of a burden.
Her experience is similar to the multitude pf other women
whose letters are recorded in the “Ills of Life.” A copy of
this free booklet ought to he in the hands of every housewife
in the United States. Read what Mrs. Lacelle says:
“/ suffered with backache, headache and dragging pains for
over nine months, and nothing relieved me until I took Peruna.
1 his medicine is by far better than any other medicine for these
troubles. A few bottles relieved me of my miserable half-dead,
half alive condition. lam now in good health, have neither ache
nor pain, nor ha ve / had any for the Past year. If every suffer
ing woman would take Peruna, they would soon know its value
and never be without it.”
MAIL ORDER ADVERTIS
ING AND THE HOME
MERCHANT
Herman Rosenfield, advertising
manager of Sears. Roebuck &
Cos., recently made the following
public statement:
“We have a bureau whose
duty it is to read each week
the country newspapers from
all over the country. There
is not a paper of any conse
quence in our trade territory
that our bureau does not get.
This bureau looks over these
papers, and when we find a
town where the merchants
are not advertising in the lo
cal paper we immediately
flood that territory with our
literature. It always brings
results far in excess of the
efforts put forth in territory
where local merchants use
their local papers.”
The home merchant who wants
the trade of home people should
remember that it pays to adver
tise. More people are reading
the newspapers than ever before,
and as they read thev look for
your advertisement. If it is not
there, who is to blame? If your
business is not what it ought to
be try an advertising campaign.
It has made fortunes for others—
it will help you.
