MR. RUTHERFORD WAS
DECLARED THE NOMINEE
CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION
WAS HELD IN MACON WED
NESDAY. DELEGATES FROM
BUTTS COUNTY TO MEET.
Hon. Sam Rutherford, of Forsyth,
recently nominated as congressman
from the sixth district to succeed
Hon. J. Walter Wise, of Fayette
—to build up
Weight/
ANY WOMAN, any man, can now
have a well-developed face and
form. The whole, simple secret of a
well-developed form is in the number
of blood-cells in your body. You can
now forget all the theoretical talk
about diet, exercise, fad treatments,
food-fats and fat-foods. Nothing is
of any use, after all, except blood
cells!
Thin, run-down men and women,
with bony necks, sunken cheeks, bony
shoulders all these aro suffering
from one thing—too few blood-cells.
Science has proved that S.S.S. helps
to make the rich red-blood-cells,
which you need. Your blood is starv
ing for these new blood-cells! Give
your blood the blood-cells it needs—
take S.S.S. the great scientific blood
cell maker. S.S.S. has done marvels,
too, in making beautiful complexions,
clearing the skin, making Ups rosy
red, the cheeks full and plump—be
cause it rids the blood of impurities
which cause pimples, blackheads,
acne, blotches, eczema, tetter, rash
and rheumatism, too. As the me
dicinal ingredients of S.S.S. are pure
ly vegetable, it may be taken with
perfect safety. This is why S.S.S.,
since 1826, has meant to thousands
of underweight men and women a
this in their strength. Start taking
.S.S. today and your great problem,
that of your personal appearance,
can be solved.

ctorts in two licea. The larger aiae
fytvt is more economical.

IN MEMORY OF MRS. ELIZA
BETH BANKSTON McGOUGH
In the passing of iMn. Elizabeth
Bankston McGoogh, Butts county
has loot one of its oldest and most
beloved women. Mrs. Me Go ugh was
in her •eventy-n.inth year. She was
born and reared in Jackson, the
daughter of Judge and Mrs. Wil
liam Bankston. Her father served
as clerk of the Jackson court for
"more than twenty years.
Two years following the close of
Ule Civil War, on Dec. 1-, 1868,
she was married to Jamea Robert
McGough, a planter of Butts conn*
ty, who, during the war, served in
Stonewall Jackson’s division of the
army. Settling on a plantation
northwest of Jackson, where they
spent their entire married life, their
strength of character and influence
was deeply appreciated by neighbors
and friends throughout th e coun
ty. In the lines of an unidentified
writer their lives wer e typified:
The best of all the people
Ar e those who live their creed;
Religion seen in action
Is everybody’s need.
Their marriage was biassed with
seven children of whom five are
now living: Mrs. Emma Andrews,
of Atlanta; Mr. W. T. McGough, of
Butts county; Mrs. Ola Collins, of
Griffin; Miss Margaret McGough, of
Jenkinsburg; and Mr. J. Gordon
McGough of Savannah.
The family lost the devoted hus
band and father Dec. 4, 1913. Since
that time, Mrs. McGough mad e her
home with her daughter, Miss jMar
garet, and her sister, Mrs. Louisa
Collins at Jenkinsburg, wher e she
continued brightening the lives of
all with whom she came in con
tact.
’‘She thanked God for the flower*,
That breathe of Hfo tender care;
Glad He thought of the rosea
And made the lalics fair.
Perhaps in Heaven’s garden
When the day’s work is complete,
She will gather a bunch of violets
And lay them at His ‘feet.”

IT has been proven conclusively that nraehi
of the suffering, pain and dread experi
enced during expectancy, as well as at
child-birth is entirely unnecessary.
An eminent physician. Dr. J. H. Holmes,
expert in this science, first produced the
great remedy “Mother’s Friend,” which aids
the muscles and tissues to expand more
easily, during the constant readjustment,
month after month, right up to the climax
of child-birth.
“Mother’s Friend” is applied externally.
Three generations of expectant mothers have
used it. “Pains disappeared in two days afte£
using ■‘Mother’s Friend,’ ” writes a user. Vi
owe my life to ‘Mother’s Friend,’ ” declared
another. Use “Mother’s Friend” as our moth
