REMEMBERED WELL CEORCE W.
| Couldn’t Lose Her in Discussing
Past Events.
A gentleman was talking recently to
a white haired old “auntie” one of the
honest, before-the-war kind, and among
other questions of .interest put to the
old soul, asked if she remembered
George Washington.
“Does I remember George Washing
ton? Laws a massy, mistah, I reckon
I does, for I done nussed him when he
was a chile.”
“Well, I suppose you remember the
Revolutionary war?”
“Yes, indeed, I does, honey. I stood
dar lots of times an’ seen de bullets
tlyin’ thick as hailstones.”
“Well, auntie, how about the fall of
the Roman Empire? Do you recollect
anything about that?”
“De fact is, honey, I was pretty
young about dat time, but I does
’member, now you speaks ob it, dat I
hear de white folks tell ’bout hearing
som’pin’ drap ’bout dat time.”
And she “ducked” appreciatively at
the Christmas quarter given her.
A Texas Wonder.
There’s a Hill at Bowie, Tex., that’s
twice as big as last year. This wonder
is W. L. Hill, tvho from a weight of 90
pounds has grown to over 180. He
says: “I suffered with a terrible
cough, and doctors gave me up to die
of Consumption. I was reduced to 90
pounds, when I began taking Dr.
King’s New . Discovery for Consump
tion, Coughs and Colds. Now, after
taking 12 bottles, 1 have more than
doubled in weight and am completely
cured.” Onlv sure Cough and Cold
cure. Guaranteed by Eldridge Drug

CALENDARS ARE VERY PRETTY
Artistic Designs are Distributed in
Americus.
Americus, as usual at this season,has
the calendar craze,and many very hand
some ones, artistic in conception and
finish, are being distributed by Ameri
cus merchants and insurance men. j
There seems to be a decided riyalry
this year in pretty designs for calen
ders, each business man apparently
making an endeavor to get out more
handsome and expensive
his competitor. It is the concensus of
opinion that next year’s calendars are
much more expensive and the designs
decidedly prettier than those of last
season.
Orino Laxative Fruit Syrup, the new
Laxative, stimulates, but does not
irriate. It is the best Lax itive.
Guaranteed or your money back.

CROWDING OF HOLIDAY STORES
Affords a Fine Opportunity for Shop
lifting.
Thus far the Americus police have
been apprised of no case of shop-lifting
as the result of the holiday rush, al
though in other cities many such re
ports have been made every day this
week. In Atlanta shoplifting has be
come so serious during the holidays
that merchants have combined to put
an end to it as nearty as possible. They
have agreed that when a shoplifter is
captured that all the other merchants
will view the accused, so such persons
can be easily spotted thereafter. Some
of the larger merchants have lost hun
dreds of dollars’ worth of goods in the
last few weeks.
