Something about
electric motors?
“«Well! Suppose you had a horse
always harnessed for work—ready to
start at an instant’s notice—one that
could pull day in and day out for
weeks, months or even years, without
tiring, stopping or even breaking
down. A horse so quict and tractable
that a child could handle him.”
“Pretty good horse—eh?”
“Suppose it costs very little to keep
this horse, because he only ate while
working, and returned in the form of
power the cost of practically all the
food he ate.”
“Some horse” you say?
«Well! an Electric Motor is even
better than such a horse—the horse
may become sick and die—the motor
won’t.”
We are agents for G-E Motors, The World’s
Standard of “‘Electric Motor Quality”’

NO REASON FOR IT.
When Cordele Citizens Show a Way
There can be no reason way any
reader of this who suffers the tor
iures of an aching back, the annoy
ance of urinary disorders, the pains
and dangers of kidney ills will fail te
heed the words of a neighbor who
has found relief: Read what a Cor
dele citizen says:
R. B. Gary, Jr., Fourth Ave.,, and
Seevnth St., Cordele, says: “While 1
didn’t have a real bad case of kidney
trouble, I had a dull pain in my back
hearly =l the time. If I bent over,
the pain got worst. One of my neigh
hors told me about Doan’s Kidney
Pills and after taking them, I was
greatly relieved. Another of my fam
ily also took Doan’s Kidney Pills and
was helped, too.”
Price 50c at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mr. Gary had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

JOHN R. FRUELER, SIDNEY CHAPLIN TWO VIEWS OF
Who Wili Pay the Salary Manager. CHARLEY CHAPLIN
(harley Chaplin, the movie commedian, has just signed a new contract,
and there saved the motion picture magnates from nervous prostration. They
have been negotiating with him for several weeks, and now John R. Frueler,
president of the Mutual Film Corporation, has caught the big fish for: $4.46
a minuie, or, $268 an hour, or, $2,147 a day, or, 292 884 a week, or, $670,000 a
year. NO person in tlie world other than king or an emperor—unless Charles
M. Schwab as president of the United States Steel Corporation was an ex
ception—has ever received half that salary.
Charley Chaplin is twenty-six years ol age.

partment states that he does not feel

There are a large number of whites

VILLA WRITES HE IS
GAINING GREAT STRENGT
Atlanta, March 21.—Wylie Smith
former soldier of fortune, has receive
two letters recently from the famous
Mexican revolutionary bandit, i
which General Villa states that larg
hodies of troops are being organize
in various parts of Mexico to join him
and that he is gaining strength all the
time.
Wylie Smith, who is practically dy
ing in a local sanitarium, was asked
by Villa to come and join him and aid}
in organization work. This was im
mediately prior to Villa’s raid on!
American soil. Smith replied that he
was too ill to comsider it, but since
the announcement of the American ex
pedition Smith, aithough so ill he can
not walk, has offered his services to
the Ainerican government as a
scout against the Mexican he was
formerly acquainted with.
Wylie once fought in Mexico on op
posite sides from Villa, but won the
}l)andit’s notice when he once rescued
Hypolite Villia, brother of Pancho,
\rrom being shot. .
PROHIBITICM ORGAN
APPLIES FOR CHARTER
Atlanta, March 21.—“ The Common
wealth,” which is the official organ
of the Anti Saloon League in Georgia,
has made application for a charter of
incorporation, and leading prohibition
ists have already actually paid in ss,~‘
000, or exactly half of the minimum
$lO,OOO capital stock. The petition for
the charter for the Commonwealth is
the culmination of the successful and
growing career which the paper crys
talized into the state wide prohibition
law that goes into effect May 1. The
incorporators are Dr. G. Eichelberger,
editor of the paper, and half dozen
prominent leaders.
“The Commonwealth” should not be
confused with ‘“The Way,” which is
an entirely separate and distinct pa
per. The Commonwealth is the official
organ of the Anti Saloon League, while
“The Way" is the local periodical that
was founded by Marion Jackson, after
the Atlanta newspapers refused to
print Jackson’s “Men and Religion Bul
letins” any longer on the ground that
they were harmful to the city.
