PREVENT HOG CHOLERA
The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder
has a record of 95 per cent cures of
Hog Cholera. If you feed your hogs
as directed, you need never fear hog
cholera nor any other hog disease.
And the directions are very simple,
just about what you are doing, plus
a few cents worth of B. A. Thomas'
Hog Powder in the feed twice a
week.
Usually, though, cholera gets in
before we know it. Then it requires
close attention to each hog—each
hog must be dosed—and if you will
dose them as directed, you will save
better than 90 per cent. If you
don’t, the B. A. Thomaß medicine
costs you nothing. We—not some
distant manufacturer pay your
money back.

LIKE AN ELECTRIC
BUTTON ON TOES
Tells Why a Corn is so Pain
ful and Says Cutting Ma
kes Them Grow
Press an electric button and you
form a contact with a live wire
which rings the bell. When your
shoes press against your corn it push
es its sharp roots down upon a sen
sitive nerve and you get a shock of
pain.
Instead of trimming your corns,
which makes them grow, just stop
into any drug store and aak for a
quarter of an ounce of freezone.
This will cost very little but is suf
ficient to remove every hard or soft
eom or callus from one’s feet. A few
drops applied directly upon a tender,
aching com stops the soreness in
stantly, and soon the com shrivels
up so it lifts right out, root and all,
without pain. This drug freezone is
harmless and never inflames or even
irritates the surrounding skin. advt.

Black specks often floated before my
eyes, blurring my sight. There were
other prominent symptoms of my
trouble, too. I knew I needed some
thing for my kidneys and when Doan’s

me I got a box at the Carmichael

they entirely cured me.”

DRESS AT FLOVILLA

at Flovilla on June 28 and the follow
ing account of his address is from
The Atlanta Journal:
Flovilla, June 29.—Patriotism ran
rampant at Flovilla Friday when one
of the most enthusiastic win-the-war
meetings ever held in this section of
the state was held in the interest of
the war savings stamps campaign.
The meeting was held in the school
house an wdas attended by citizens of
the town and farmers of this entire
section. The chief speaker of the day
was Col. Lawton Nalley, one of the
leading members of the Atlanta bar,
who was assigned to speak here by the
state committee. Mr. Nalley aroused
his audience to a high pitch by de
claring the kaiser can and will be
defeated and that when you buy a
war savings stamp you help equip
your boy for the conflict and not the
son of someone else, because the
boys of Butts county are fighting in
the trenches today.
Mr. Nalley was originally scheduled
to speak in Jackson, but on account
of a change in planß was asked to
speak in Flovilla.
