Economize Wisely
—A Maxwell Car Will Help
Waste is often committed when the in
tention is to economize.
A Maxwell car, famous for its economy,
will cost you only a few dollars a month to
operate and maintain.
Which is the real economy:
(1) To use the car and
save time, strength, and
mental vigor?
(2) To do without the
car, lose time in your busi
ness, lose the health gained
from motoring, and worry
yourself into illness?
Use of a Maixwell car will give you self
confidence.
Your neighbors and associates will get
mental inspiration from you.
As wave circles widen when a pebble lilts
the water, so will your good example bene
fit your entire community.
Save—yes; but do it sensibly, and let the
Maxwell help.

COL. MOORE MAY RUN
FOR REPRESENTATIVE
Among the names being promi
nently put forward for representa
tive from Butts county this year is
that of Hon. J. Threatt Moore. There
has been a good deal of talk recently
about getting Mr. Moore in the race,
and the suggestion seems to have met
with general favor throughout the
county. While a bit early, perhaps,
for an announcement, Mr. Moore has
the matter under advisement and
will make his decision known later.
Col. Moore is a man well known to
the people of the county. He repre
sented the county in the lower house
in 1910-11, and is the author of sev
eral well known laws, including the
one making corporations liable for
damages in the county in which the
damage occurs, rather than in the
county in which the home office is lo
cated. While serving as a member of
the general assembly, Mr. Moore, al
ready well known, made many friends
over the state. His fame as an athlete J
while a student at the University of'
Georgia jnado Col. Moore known and
liked in all sections of Georgia.
For the past two years Mr. Moore j
has served as mayor of Jackson, and
was recently elected for a third j
term, without opposition. He has;
handled the bus ness of the town in an|
efficient and economical manner, an 1
has favored all progressive measures:
for the advancement of the c ommu- ■
nity.
Should ha. enter the race this year,
he would have the active support of a
large number of loyal friends.

and the fact that court officials are
engaged in work on the local draft
board, the February term of Butts
superior court has been postponed
from the third and fourth weeks in
February until the first and second
weeks in March. This action of Judge
Searcy in ordering a postponement of

prove quite a convenience to the pub

val.

HAVE YOU TRIED IT ?
When you are weak, nervous, dejected, and lack energy and ambition, try Ziron, the new iron tonic, with
hypophosphites and other tonic ingredients, which will put iron into your blood and help to develop fresh energy
for your nerves and muscles. If you haven’t tried it, do so today. Why wait? It may be just what you need.
Ziron contains no alcohol, but just the ingredients known for centuries to be of value as a general, building, recon
structive tonic for weak, pale people. Druggists sell Ztron, or can get it for you. Accept no substitutes. Get

It is a pleasant, vegetable, liquid

surely as calomel, but it doesn t

Children and grown folks can take
Dodson’s Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.

WOMEN TORTURED
Suffer Terribly With Corns
Because of High Heels, but
Why Care Now
Women wear high heels which
buckle up their toes and they suffer
terribly from corns. Women then pro
ceed to trim these pests, seeking re
lief, but they hardly realize the ter
rible danger from infection, say a
Cincinnati authority.
Corns can easily be lifted out with
the fingers if you will get from any
drug store a quarter of an ounce of
a drug called freezone. This is suffi
cient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from one’s feet. You
simply apply a few drops directly
upon the tender aching corn or cal
lus. The soreness is relieved at once
and soon the entire com or callus,
root and all, lifts out without one
particle of pain.
This freezone is a stick substance
which dries in a moment. It just
shrivels up the com without inflam
ing or even irritating the surround
ing tissue or skin. Tell your wife
about this. advt.
About 200 board feet of wood is
used in the actual construction of
the average airplane. To obtain this
material it is ordinarily necessary to
work over about 1,500 feet of select
lumber, which often represents all
that can be used for airplanes of 15,-
board feet of standing timber.

Take a dose of nasty calomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and
nauseated tomorrow. Don’t lose a
day’s work. Take a spoonful of
Dodson’s Liver Tone instead and
you will wake up feeling great. No
more biliousness, constipation, slug
gishness, headache, coated tongue or
sour stomach. Your druggist savs if
you don’t find Dodson’s Liver Tone
acts better than horrible calomel
your money is waiting for you.
DIRECTIONS GIVEN
FOR SECURING NITRATE
Atlanta, Jan. 31.—The State De
partment of Agriculture has prepared
a special circular letter giving infor
mation and data as to the method of
obtaining nitrate of soda which will
be sold direct to farmers by the Unit
ed States Govenment at cost.
This nitrate of soda, of which the
government has obtained 100,000
tons for agricultural purposes, will
be sold through county farm demon
stration agents in each county and
under the supervision of J. Phil
Campbell, director of the extension
work in Georgia, who is located in
Athens.
In those counties which have no
demonstration agents, Mr. Campbell
will appoint committees to handle
the distribution; and committees will
likewise be named in the counties
where there are agents in order to
render assistance.
Farmers desiring nitrate of soda
should make their applications direct
to the county agents or members of
these committees, through whom it
will be supplied to them at $75.50
per ton, f. o. b. cars at port of arrival
The purchaser will pay the freight
charges, but there will be no state fee
charged the farmer for inspection, as
the state will not require registration
by the Government or inspection of
commodities handled direct by the
Government. However, the State De
partment of Agriculture will co-ope
with the Federal Government in sam
pling and analyzing this material,
when necessary, for the protection of
the farmers.
The Department of Agriculture ad
vises that all Georgia farmers desir
ing nitrate of soda get in touch at
once with their county agent or some
member of the local committee who
will explain the details and enable
them to get promptly the amount
they need.
