THE JACKSON PROGRESS-A RGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
A CARD OF APPRECIATION
When the Master sent his disci
ples out to preach the kingdom, He
said take not scrip nor purse for
the laborer is worthy of his hire.
Never was this promise verified any
clearer than when we returned to
Jenkinsburg charge for our third
year, and the good women of Jen
kinsburg, sponsored by the Parson
age Aid Society gave us the best
and largest pantry shower in the
histroy of our ministry. You can
call it a shower if you like, butfrom
the looks of the parsonage pantry
it rained. Among the articles most
noticeable was several dollars worth
of sugar, plenty to keep the preach
er sweet for a season.
We take this opportunity to
thank our many friends and Par
sonage Aid Society for this splendid
expression of their kindness and
love for us. May the richest bless
ings of God rest upon each and ev
ery one that had a part in this
piece of work.
Rev. and Mrs. L. L. BURCH.
AN APPRECIATION
The Wednesday night prayer
meeting at the Methodist church
was converted, by way of surprise
to Mr. and Mrs. Ernest, into an ap
preciation of their pleasing residence
in Jackson for three years and their
return to the town for the next
twelve months.
After the devotional period led
by the pastor, he was halted and
summoned to surrender the remain
der of the evening to the congrega
tion, who had something to say. Ev
erything that was spoken attested
the good feeling that prevails over
Mx\ Ernest’s pastoral relationships
and his acceptance with the town
at large.
Messages of appreciation were
spoken from the board of stewards,
by Mr. E. S. Settle; from the Ep
vvorth League, by Mrs. R. W. Mays
and from the Church School, by Mr.
Hugh Mallet. Mrs. Hugh Mallet then
sang a favorite song of the Ernests,
after which Cupid dressed as a Wes-,
tern Union messenger, in the per
son of little Miss “Bitsie” Redmond,
knocked and entered bearing a fair
message from the Epwort’n Juniors,
who were supposed to be Ihen safe
ly tucked away in the land of Wyn
ken, Blinken and Nod.
Mrs. Annie Webb spoke for the
missionary society, and the orches
tra, led by Mr. J. E. Edwards, did
its devoirs by presenting the min
ister’s favorite ballad, ‘’Juanita.”
Mrs. Settle read Kipling’s poem “It
Aint the Guns or Armament” as in
terpreting the spirit of the hour,
and then a pause was given for any
one not in hearty accord with the
evening to “sneak out and flatten
his face against the north wall of
the church building and spend ten
minutes in being miserably ashamed
of his very bad heart.” No one
stirred.
Miss Maggie Jo O’Neal spoke for
the young people, Mrs. Lyons for
the Woman’s Christian Temperance
Union, and all voices joined in sing
ing the “Loyalty” song.
Neighboring congregations were
also present, and they too had
words of felicitation over the agree
able town relations that have pre
vailed during the three years.
After Brother Ernest’s response
to all these good words, which was
hearty and encouraging, a social
hour was entered, and no one said
good night till refreshment had been
taken and the Ernests had been
greeted personally by the guests of
the evening. In all, it was a bright,
happy occasion and will add much
strength to the Christian friend
ships which so greatly enriches the
social life of Jackson.

Frequent
Bilious
Attacks
"I suffered with severe bilious
attacks which came on me two or
three times every month,” says
Mr. Ollie Miller, of Murray, Ky.
"I would become dizzy. My
head would ache terribly, feeling
as if it would almost burst. It
felt exactly like a tight band
was being drawn closer and clos
er around my temples.
"My stomach would be so up
set I could not retain any land
of nourishment for hours. I
would have to quit work and
go to bed.
’’My color was awful. I was
yellow and my skin was drawn
and dry. I did not have any
energy—no ambition to work. I
was just about half sick most of
the time because of these spells.
"One day one of my neighbors,
who has used Thedford’s Black-
Draught ’ for years, said he had
noticed how bad my color was
and thought it would help me.
"I got some Black-Draught im
mediately and began to take it
regularly until 1 got my system
clear of the, ]>oison I had been
absorbing. I noon began to feel
better and developed a fine ap
petite. I bad no more bad head
aches or bilious spells.” E . I2S

mm RHEUMATISM
/ N May be relieved by rational treatment——
it can not be rubbed away.
Are you one of those unfortunates
who suffer with pains in your mus
cles and joints, commonly called
rheumatism, making you miserable,
less efficient, interfering with your
working hours, ruining your sleep?
You may have tried many things
without relief. Why not try S.S.S.?
For more than 100 years it has been
giving relief in thousands of cases,
as testified to in unsolicited letters
of gratitude.
“I suffered from rheumatism for
a good many years. At times my
joints would swell so, I couldn’t
walk. I tried almost everything.

finally decided to try S.S.S. I took

now in perfect health, and want to
add that I have tried all kinds of
medicines but I think S.S.S. is the
best.” Earl C. Campbell, 115 West

S.S.S. is purely vegetable. It is
extracted from the fresh roots of
medicinal plants and herbs and gives
to Nature what she needs in build
ing you up so that your system
throws off the cause.
S.S.S. is sold at all good drug
stores in two sizes. The larger size
is more economical.
