The next convention of the Geor

From the standpoint of solid results
accomplished and the discussion of
business matters, the recent meeting

held. Several strong talks were made,
including addresses ' by Dr. L. G.
Hardman and Judge A. J. Cobb.
The social features were up to the
standard of former years, the picnic
given by the citizens of Dublin Wed

trouble with her bladder and was
treated for several months without re

using them. She says she got relief
from the first two bottles, and eight
bottles cured her. Many similar let

FEW CENTS DESTROYS
YOUR DANDRUFF AND
STOPS FALLING HAIR
Save Your Hair! Make it
Thick, Wavy and Beauti
ful—Try This
Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff—thait awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of its lustre, its strength and its very
life; eventually producing a feverish
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die—then the
hair falls out fast. A litle Danderine
tonight—now—any time—will sure
ly save your hair.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton’s
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and after the first ap
plication your hair will take on that
life, lustre and luxuriance which is
so beautiful. It will become wavy and
fluffy and have the appearance of
abundance, an incomparable gloss
and softness; but what will please
you most will be after a few weeks’
use, when you will actually see a lot
of fine, downy hair—new hair—
growing all over the scalp, advt.

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 theih as directed, you will save
better than 90 per cent. If you
don’t, the B. A.' Thomas medicine
costs you nothing. We—not some
distant manufacturer pay your
monfcy back.

Resumption of “lightless nights”
which was inaugurated last winter to
save fuel, became effective Wednes

Atlantic states there will be four
lightless nights each veek, Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
In the rest of the United States Mon

The regulations under which the

are the same as those put into force
by the fuel administration last win

FOR CONGRESS
TO THE VOTERS OF THE SIXTH
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF
GEORGIA:
I am a candidate for the Sixty-
Sixth Congress, to succeed myself,
subject to such rules and regulations
as may be adopted by the Executive
Committee.
I have endeavored at all times to
look after every interest of my con
stituents, and to represent them to
the best of my ability.
Since being in Congress, I have
been kept in Washington almost con
tinuously, and have not had the op
portuniy and pleasure of visiting my
constituents, as I would have under
other circumstances, but I felt it my
duty to remain at my post in these
perilous times, and render what as
sistance I could in successfully pros
ecuting the war.
If it is the will of the voters of the
Sixth District that I be returned to
Congress, I shall do all I can by word
and act, to bring this awful war to a
speedy and vicorious termination,
and then to devote myself with all the
energy I have to the passage of such
legislation as will tend to the up
building of our government, and if
possible, establish a lasting peace
among the nations of the earth, so
that freedom and liberty may be the
portion of mankind everywhere.
Thanking my constituents for past
favors, and hoping my candidacy may
meet with your approval, I am
Sincerely,
J. W. WISE.
FOR CONGRESS
TO THE VOTERS OF THE SIXTH
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF
GEORGIA:
After a careful survey of the Sixth
Congressional District, I have decid
ed to become a candidate for Con
gress from this District, subject to
the rules governing the next Demo
cratic Primary.
I base my candidacy for Congress
on my record as a State legislator,
which record I respectfully submit
to the consideration of the voters of
the Sixth District.
In addition to taking an active part
in all general legislation enacted
while I was a member of the House
and Senate for many years of ser
vice, I am the sole author of the fol
lowing general legislation which is
of benefit to all the people of the
State:
(1) The Parole Law whereby men
who have been convicted of crime
and sentenced under the lavs to penal
service, are given another opportunity
in life of becoming useful and re
spected citizens.
(2( That Constitutional Amend
ment which authorizes counties to
give unto the rural pupils the same
free high school trainingas is afforded
by the towns and cities; and which
gives the county authorities the right
to use the State’s appropriation for
the common schools in connection
with high school instruction, and
(3) That Act which prevented the
Louisville and Nashville Railway Cos.
from obtaining a charter from the
State to parallel the tracks of the
State’s road, the Western and Atlan
tic from Chattanooga to Atlanta, until
after the new lease was made by the
W. and A. Commission with the
Louisville and Nashville for a period
of fifty years, and at a much higher
rate of rental than was ever obtained
before.
I was elected President of the Sen
ate and ex-officio Lieutenant Govern
or of the State for the years 1915-
1916 without opposition.
On my election to Congress I shall
devote myself to the duties of a Con
gressman with the purpose of serving
the people of my District, State and
Country as faithfully as I have en
deavored to serve the people of my

Then you realize the utter weakness
that robs ambition, destroys appetite
and makes work a burden.
To regain your strength nothing has
ever equaled or compared with Scott’s
Emulsion; its blood-enriching proper

tonic value sharpens the appetite ia
a natural, permanent way.
If you are run down, tired, nervous,
overworked or lack strength, be sure
to get Scott’s Emulsion today.
•Scott & Bowne, Bloomfield. N. j,
county and State in the State Legis
lature.
We must stand united on all meas
ures until the present war against
Germany is won for our country,
and American lives and property are
made secure beneath the folds of
our flag throughout the entire wor\&-
After the war is won for our peo
ple and when we return with joy and
gladness to our pursuits of peaceful
life, the important questions both for
eign and domestic which will so vital
ly affect our future prosperity, must
be solved by Congress with an eye
single to the interests of America, so
as to accord full liberty with exact
justice to all classes of our citizens.
Our State sovereignty must ,be
preserved if we would perpetuate
our form of Government.
Next in importance is the question
of land and water transportation de
velopment, and the regulating and
improving of our transportation fa
cilities in order that the country may
be properly developed and defended,
and the destructive conflicts between
capital and labor prevented by pro
viding just returns unto capital act
ually invested and fair working hours
and wages for labor.
I greatly desire the proper develop
ment of Georgia’s deep-sea ports, and
heartily endorse the proposed plan of
the business men of Bibb county to
obtain government aid in
opening the Ocmulgee channel so as
to make it navigable all the year
round, and equip it with a sufficient
number of freight barges to take care
of the commerce that will be carried.
This waterway from Maco nto Bruns
wick is nature’s gift to the Sixth Dis
trict and should be utilized to its ef
fective fullness. It should be opera
ted in conjunction with the deep-sea
connections of the Merchant Marine
to be oeprated after the war, there
by greatly benefiting the people of
the District and the State.
I shall work for a permanent lo
cation of the military camp at Camp
Wheeler. This camp because of its
naturally healthful and advanta
geous surroundings, being located in
the heart of the State, is entitled to
as many soldiers as any camp in the
State and should have them.
Our immigration lave should be
changed so as to bar from our coun
try every undesirable alien; and our
naturalization laws changed so as to
prevent any enemy of our country
exercising the right to vote and en
joying the protection of our citizen
ship.
Rural free delivery of the mails
should be extended until every home
is reached; while educational and vo
cational training of our people
should be rendered thorough and ef
fective.
The government farm loan sys
tem with its low rate of interest to
the borrowers should be so simplified
and perfected as to make it possible
for those who wish to avail them
selves of its benefits can do so with
out unnecessary delay or expense.
Believing in the great principles
of the Democratic Party, and its
motto: “equal rights to all and spe
cial privilges to none,” I submit my
candidacy and respectfully solicit
with appreciation your votes and in
fluence with the promise that on
election I shall devote my energy
and best efforts to the solution of all
questions that may come unto me,
pledging that my influence and vote
shall be used solely for the best in
terests of the people whom I alone
shall serve.
Respectfully,
OGDEN PERSONS.
