HOW TO HAVE A SOFT,
SMOOTH, EXQUISITE SKIN
For red, coarse, oily or shiny skins
and rough, spotted wrinkled complex
ions, never use powder, because it
clogs up the pores of the skin and
creates an unhealthy condition. Use
in place of powder Dr. Blair’s Cream
of Cucumber which will produce a
beautifully clear, soft, smooth and
healthy complexion.
Dr. Blair’s Cream of Cucumber is
guaranteed to contain essence of cu
cumber, it is cooling and refreshing,
its presence can not be detected and
it is considered the most refined and
exquisite of all complexion prepara
tions. Does not dust, rub or blow off
like powder and one application lasts
all day.
Dr. Blair's Cream of Cucumber will
not grow hair, but does prevent black
heads, is excellent for sunburn tan,
and will, in time, remove all wrink
les. 50c and SI.OO, in white and flesh

Ameco Cures Macon
Man of Malaria
A. J. Barnet Highly Recommends
This New Scientific Chill and Fever
Tonic. Your Doctpr Will Also Ap
prove Its Use.
You will miss that dreaded “chill
, day” from the moment you begin
: taking Ameco. It kills the chills and
breaks the fever.
Mr. A. J. Barnes, of Macon, says:
“My system was full of malaria and
I began to have chills and fever. I
bought a bottle of Ameco Chill and
Fever Tonic and a few doses broke
up the chills. I took the rest of the
bottle as a tonic and the fever did not
return. I gladly recommend Ameco to
any one having chills and fever.”
Ameco is a scientific prescription
that your doctor will approve. Con
tains no harmful drugs and is fine for
children.
I Get a bottle from your druggist
• for 35c, and if not satisfied with re-
I suits, he will refund your money.—

THE CAUSE OF \
HIGH MORTALITY
J INJNFANTS J!
It is estimated that around 300,000
babies die annually in the United
i States, and that fully two-thirds of
i these deaths are caused from diarr-
I hoeal diseases or complications. These
disturbances in baby’s stomach and
digestive organs ate due mostly to
improper feeding, which throws a poi
son into the system. This poison un
less eliminated, makes a mighty sick
baby.
When baby begins to fret, does not
sleep well, suffers with constipation,
diarrhoea, sour stomach and gas, or
is sometimes feverish, this is a sure
indication of indigestion, or improper
assimilation and elimination, culmi
nating in serious trouble unless cor
rected with a good baby laxative.
When baby is in this condition great
care must be used not to give it
strong, irritating drugs that inflame
the delicate membrane’s of baby’s
stomach.
“Baby Ease,” a perfected baby lax
ative by a baby specialist, is consid
ered the most efficient baby laxative
and corrective. It is easy acting,
non-irritating, does not produce over
action or leave constipating after-ef
fects. Your doctor will approve its
use. Ask your druggist for “Baby
Ease.” adv
SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 4, 1920
chairman of the state convention,
I was expected to speak from the floor
: against the resolution. He opposed
■ it, not because of the indirect at-
I tacks upon him, but because he cca
sidered it unwise to drag factional
fights in the senate, and increase
animosity unnecessarily, he said.
The senate will not meet again un
til next Tuesday.
