Suffered Twenty-One Years--
Finally found Relief
Having suffered for twenty-one years
with a pain in my side, I finally have
found relief in Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root. The physicians called it "Moth
ers' Pain," and injections of morphine
were m> ->nly relief for short periods
of time. I became so sick that I had
to undergo a surgical operation in
New Orleans, which benefitted me for
two years. 'When the same pain came
back one day. I was so sick that 1
gave up hopes of living. A friend ad
cised me to try Swamp-Root and 1 ar
once commenced using it. The first
bottle did me so much good that I pur
chased two more bottles. I am now
on my second bottle and am feeling
like a new woman. I passed a grave!
stone as large as a big red bean and
several small ones. I have not had
the least feeling of pain since taking
your Swamp-Root and I feel it my duty
to recommend this great medicine to
all suffering humanity. Gratefully
yours

..Vs..
Your Store.
Would you consider that this newspaper was well
managed if it issued according to the mood of its publish
ers instead of at regular, stated and invariable intervals ?
Would you think it a good newspaper if it printed
at welve-page issue at one time and a one-page hand-bill
nat aother time ?
Would you feel that it was serving its constituency
effectually if, now and then, it suspended issue entirely
to resume at some time when the publisher felt inclined ?
Your store serves your patrons with store news
through its advertising. They assume that there is
always store news. worth telling—store news that is
important to them.
Is it not poor policy tor a store, as it would be for a
newspaper, to serve its patrons in a spasmodic, undepend
able way ? If your store is important to the people of
the city, your advertising is important to them all the
ime—not merely now and then.
The size of vour advertising should not vary any
more than the size of a newspaper varies, and the appear
ance of your advertisement should be as frequent and
regular as the appearance of this newspaper.
The people of Americus read THE TIMES
RECORDER; II you have any STORE NEWS, and
wish to tell them of it, place an advertisement in
these columns.

Mathematician Figures Out the Food
Question.
If anyone requires a clear head, it is

reason in the abstract as it were and
' full concentration of ind is necessary
if correct results are to be forthcom
ing.
An Ohio man w'rites:
“I am a teacher of mathematics and
for 15 years prior to four years ago, l
either took a lunch composed of cold
; sandwiches, pickles, etc., to school or
hurried home and quickly ate a hot
, dinner.
* “The result was that I went to my
afternoon work feeling heavy, dull cf
I brain and generally out of sorts. Final
ly I learned about Grape-Nuts food
and began to use it for my noon-day
lunch.
“From the first I experienced a great
L change for the better. The heavy, un
pleasant feeling and sour stonlach
caused by the former diet disappeared.
The drowsy languor and disinclination
; to work soon gave way to a bright
• ness and vim in my afternoon w'ork, a
feeling entirely new to me.
! “My brain responds promptly to the
requirements put upon it and what .’3
of more importance, the results have
been lasting and more satisfactory, the
. longer I have used Grape-Nuts as a
food.
“My wife had been suffering from
weak stomach accompanied by sick
headaches nearly all her life. She is
invariably relieved of these when she
sticks to Grape-Nuts, either eaten dry
or with milk. Her stomach has grad
ually grown stronger and her head
aches less frequent since she began tu
1 eat Graps-Nuts.” “There’s a Reason.

“POOR DEVILS” HAD ]
NO CHANCE IN TRIALS i
Miners Didn’t Know of Con- J
victions until Gobbled lip
Charleston, W. Va., Jnue 12. Mar
tial rule in the coal strike regions o'
West Virginia was described before the
senate mine investigating committee *
yesterday and after three military offi
cials had told of conditions the com
mittee expressed itself satisfied as to
the charge that the citizens of We.,t
Virginia had been tried and convicted
in violation of the constitution anil
laws of the United States. i
Two members of the military com
mission which at three different times
assumed absolute dominion over some I
150 square miles of V r est Virginia ter- 1
ritory, testified. They were Capt. C. j
R. Morgan, a lawyer, and Maj. James j
I. Pratt, who was president of the sec
ond military court which took charge
of the strike district. Both told the
committee that their proceedings were
conducted without regard to the civil «
laws of the state; that they arrested, <
arraigned, tried and convicted offend- <
ers in the strike zone without recourse 1
to process of the civil courts and im- j
posed sentences without regard to the J
limitations imposed by the statutes of j
West Virginia. j
“We considered the entire strike dis- ]
trict was in a state of actual warfare,” |
said Capt. Morgan, “and we acted ac
cording to the procedure of the Unit- J
ed States army in time of war.”
“My understanding,” said Capt. Mor- ,
gan, “was that during this state of
insurrection which prevailed, the con
stitution of the state of West Virginia
had been suspended by the acts of j
these men who were burning, killing,
and destroying property. We believed j
these men had suspended the constU|
tution and that in order to perpetuate (
the state of West Virginia and restore
the constitution we were justified inj
using extreme measures.”
Capt. Morgan declared that the mil-!
itia commission believed its authority 1
was unlimited under the general order
issued by Gov. Glasscock which pro
vided the military commission “is sud
stituted for the criminal courts of the
district covered by the martial la .v
proclamation and all offenses against
the civil laws, as they existed prior to
the proclamation of November 15, 1912,
shall be regarded as offenses under
the military law, and in punisment
thereof the military commission can
impose such sentences either lighter
or heavier than those imposed under
the civil law, as in their judgment the
offender may merit.”
Both Capt. Morgan and Maj. Pratt
asserted that the commission did not'
feel itself limited by the statutory
revisions fixing punishment for of
fenses and Maj. Pratt gave several in
stances of sentences imposed by the
commission exceeding the statutory
punishment. A dozen pictures of men,
clad in prison clothing and with heads
shaved, were identified by Maj. Pratt
as men who had been sentenced by
the commission. One was given a
sentence of seven and a half years for
perjury, several others Were given
three, four and five year sentences for
“interfering with officers.”
Senator Borah elicited that Capt.
Morgan, as a lawyer, believed there
was no appeal from the decision of
the commission if approved by the gov
ernor, except to the supreme court ot
the United States.
Senator Martine ascertained that af
ter the commission had heard the tes
timony in cases it went into secret ses
sion, executed sealed findings after
the manner of a verdict and sent them
to the governor.
“Then the poor devil did not know
what you had done with him until he
was gobbled up and carried away t-j
the penitentiary?” suggested the New
Jersey senator.
“That’s right,” answered Capt. Mor
gan, and the spectators smiled. Adjt. 11
Gen. Chas. D. Elliott had occupied the
morning session and part of the af
ternoon. Last night Senator Borah
took up witnesses produced by the
mine workers to testify as to charges
that peonage obtains in the Paint
creek and Cabin creek sections. The
inquiry will continue for several days
with the work divided among members :
of the committee.
