GOT HIS SOBRIQUET EARLY
"Honest John” Kelly Proved His Right
to the Title Long Before
Manhood.
There have been many stories about
the manner in which “Honest John"
to a new York letter, holds ' that it
'came to him naturally, for even as a
small boy the purity of his soul shone
through -his face. “I think the first
time I was ever called ‘Honest John’
was when I was quite a youngster,”
ambulatory salesman of tinware ob
served the ingenuous countenance I
presented to the world and hailed me.
‘You look honest, boy,' said he. ‘What
might your name be?’ ‘John,’ said I,
quite simply. ‘John’ —just like that,
the saloon and get a drink,’ said he.
And so I held his horse while he went
in the saloon and got a drink. But
this was on lower Ninth avenue, in a
day when the avenue's honors went
to the man who could clean the most
cops in a given time. By and by the
gang came along and beheld that
wagon full of tinware. The peddler
;was detained within by a sore thirst,
and they took the tinware. And then
they came back and took the cush
ions off the wagon. Eventually, he
icoming daring, they unhitched the
wagon and took it away. True to my
;trust, I stood there, holding the horse.
And by and by the peddler came out

;y first baby was six
juuinuo um he broke out on his head
with little bumps. They would dry
up and leave a scale. Then it would
break out again and it spread all over
his head. All the hair came out and
his head was scaly all over. Then his
face broke out all over in red bumps
and it kept spreading until it was on
his hands and arms. I bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time. He
had it about six months when a friend
told me about Culicura. 1 sent and
got a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a
cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them be began to improve.
He began to take long naps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles of Resolvent, two boxes of
Ointment and three cakes of Soap he
was sound and W’ell, and never had
any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. I don’t think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
| "I have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Soap several times since to use
for cuts and sores and have never
known them to fail to cure what I put
them on. I think Cuticura is a great
remedy and would advise any one to
■use it. Cuticura Soap is the best that
I have ever used for toilet purposes."

Athens. —Work on the Brinson rail
road which is being constructed from
Savannah to Athens, is progressing
rapidly, a large force of hands being
this week engaged in grading and
laying ties at Waynesboro,Burke
county, 100 miles this sidmcf Sa\-an
nah. The road will come by Thomson,
Washington and Lexington. It is re
ported here tbat ther* may be effec
tualized a connection with the Gaines
ville Midland, owned by Savannah
capitalists, and running from this
place north to Gainesville, and that
ultimately, the road may be pushed
through the mountains to connect
with the Louisville and Nashville, and
give Georgia another through line
from the west to the seaboard.
Savannah.—Either more Savannah
people were ill in 1910 than in 1909 or
else they took more medicine than be
fore. The report of the city dispen
sary filed with the mayor shows prac
tically 22,000 prescriptions were is
sued over the counter, in j 909 the
total Avas a little more than 20,000.
LaFayette.—A municipal water and
light plant, costing $40,000, was com
pleted here, and the water and light
turned on. Citizens are subscribing
liberally, and the plant will be a prof
itable investment to the city. The
water is taken from a spring which
jhas a flow of 1,000 gallons per min
ute, the installation of the water
works will result in a 25 per cent re
duction in the insurance rates in the
town.
Americus.—Hon. Thomas G. Hud
son, state commissioner of agriculture
who spent the holidays at his resi
dence here, was thrown from his bug
gy by a runaway horse while out driv
ing. Commissioner Hurson was con
siderably bruised and shaken up by
the bad fall, but his injuries are con
sidered in no wise serious by his phy
sician, though friends felt consider
able apprehension until advised def
initely regarding his condition.
Athens. —A bulletin is out giving the
officers of the High School associa
tions for 1911 and a full report of the
meetings held in 1910. The presi
dents of the several district associa
tions are given below. Meetings will
he held in every district during the
months of April and May at which
representatives from the schools of
the districts will contest in declama
tions, recitations, instrumental mus
ic, essay wrting and track athletics.
The presidents are as follows: First
district, E. L. Ray; Second, G. D. God

L. Smith; Fifth, J. C. Upshaw; Sixth,
W. T. Garrett; Seventh, J. E. Burks;

Swainshoro.—Much satisfaction is
telt in this county over the return
of the population of this county made
by the census department. This re
turn gives to Emanuel county an in
crease of 3,861 over the return of
1909, an increase of 18.1 per cent, a
very healthy showing, not a flying
machine pace like Ware county, but
a substantial growth. Emanuel is one
of the four vote counties and this dis
tinction cue expects to maintain, her
policy being always forward, never
backward. A very interesting deduc
tion from the census figures is the
fact that the greatest increase in the
state's population is in South Georgia,
its contribution to the state’s growh
far surpassing what w r as done by north
or even middle Georgia. Four dis
tricts in south Georgia gave 10,348
more people than the other seven dis
tricts combined.
Cordele. —The newly-elected county
commissioners of Crisp county, who
will assume their duties in January,
are enthusiastic over the matter of
building a bridge across Flint river
at a point eight miles west of Cordele
and moie than twenty miles east of
Americus. Every indication is at
present that arrangements will he
completed for the erection of this
bridge within the next few months.
At present no bridge spans this river
for the entire distance of the western
border ot Crisp and the eastern bor
der of Sumter counties, making it a
great inconvenience to the people liv
ing just across this river from Cor
dele in the marketing of their prod
ucts.
Albany.—Mayor N. F. Tift is au
thority for the statement that not
more than half a dozen families can
be found in Albany that are in desti
tute circumstances. It is customary
for the city government to provide
free wood for the poor of the com
munity at Christmas time. The may
or had a large quantity of wood which
might have been thus disposed of, but
he was unable to find more than half
a dozen humble homes where the
city’s help was needed. He called
the ministers of the city into con
sultation on the subject, but they
were unable to find any destitute fam
ilies other than those already located.
Hiawassee.—John and Henry Tur
pine, brothers, who live in the north
ern part of this county, were shot
ind probably fatally wounded by
James Holcomb of Habersham county,
who claims he fired in self-defense
when the two brothers were advanc
ing upon him with drawn pistols. The
Turpipe brothers, who had been drink
ing, are alleged to have come down
the Hiawassee river making tne state
ment that their purpose was to break
up the Christmas tree celebration at
Macedonia school and threatening to
take things generally.
BIRMINGHAM CITIZEN SWEARS
TO REMARKABLE STATEMENT
I want to tell you what Dr. Kilmer's
Bwamp-Root did for my wife. She was
troubled with terrible in her back
and they were such that i£'deprived her
of many night's sleep. There was a thick
red sediment in her urine like brick dust.
The passage of the urine was very annoy
ing, being of a burning sensation and the
complication was making her very thin
and weak. The medicine which the doc
tor gave her did not seem to help her
and she was finally persuaded to try Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root. I purchased one
bottle of the large size for her and it helped
Her greatly. After she had taken three
bottles she did not have any more trouble
with her kidneys. It has been seven
years since she took Swamp-Root and she
is now well and healthy At the time of
her kidney trouble, she weighed 130 pounds,
and she now weighs 185. My wife is 32
years of age and cheerfully recommends
Dr Kilmer’s Swamp-Root to her friends
and feels very thankful that she found a
remedy, with such wonderful merit.

GOT THE BEST OF THE ELDER
Apt Quotation of Brer Reuben Saved
His Mule and at the Same Time
Rebuked Sin.
Elder Harris was making another
attempt to Induce one of the members
of his flock to trade horses with him.
"Dat pony o’ your’n. Brer Reuben,”
he said, “is jes’ what 1 want, an’ my
big bay hoss is jes’ what yo’ want. I
kin git over de groun’ faster wid de
pony, an’ you kin haul a bigger load
wid de hoss. Hit'd be a good trade fur
bofe on us, ’ceptin’ dat it’d be a leetle
better fuh you dan it would fur me.
Yo take de bay and give me de
ches’nut sor’l.”
"De pony suits me well ’nough, el
der,” averred Brother Renben, for the
twentieth time. “I don’ keer t’ make
no swap.”
“But I jes’ natchelly got t’ have dat
pony, Brer Reuben.”
“Elder." spoke the other, after a
period of profound thought. “I been
wantin’ t’ ast yo’ a question for a long
time.”
“Well, what is it?”
"I know w'at one o’ de 'postles says
'bout de law bein’ done away with, but
ain't we still livin’ undah de ten com
mandments?”
“Brer Reuben,” solemnly averred
Elder Harris, “we air.”

says we mustn't covet anyt’ing w’at
b’longs t’ our neighbors, an’ you’re cov
etin’ dat li’l chestnut sor’l pony o’

Then the elder gave it up. Clearly

Young Age Pensions.
Young-age pensions! Why not? Ti
tles, honors, riches, pensions and most
other good things are, as a rule, post
poned to a period of life when the ca
pacity for enjoying them has been
blunted. Australia was one of the
first countries to adopt old-age pen
sions, and now a labor member of the
commonwealth parliament proposes a
complementary scheme of young-age
pensions. He would start by pension
ing the fourth child at birth. The fact
that three had previously been born
showed that the parents were doing
their duty and deserving well of the
state. The young-age pension would
“reward industry and encourage the
„blrth rate.” —London Chronicle.

THE MALARIA MONSTER
If the mosquito were as big as it is bad, it would darken
the air like a gigantic death-breathing dragon. Each sting
of a mosquito sows the germs of malaria. These germs
multiply with wonderful rapidity. Then come chills and
fever with other fomis of malaria that undermine the health
and sap the strength.
OXIDINE
—a bottle proves.
It is the modem malaria medicine and the one sure
antidote for malaria poisoning. It kills the chills. It
quenches the fever fires. It stamps out the cause and
consequences of the disease. That’s only the beginning of
helpful healing work of OXIDINE. It builds up the body,
revitalizes the system, enriches the blood, tones up the
stomach, bowels, liver and kidneys. OXIDINE puts the
body on a fighting footing of superb health.
The tonic qualities of OXIDINE make it the best
medicine for all weak, run down, thin, pale persons. It is
the best body-building tonic money can buy.
