R.M.ANDREWS
IS LAID TO REST
Death Comes From
Stroke To Highly Re
spected Citizen
Two hundred or more persons,
residents of Americus, Sumter,
Schley and Marion counties, attend
ed the funeral here Sunday after
noon of Robert M. Andrews, which
was held from the family residence,
200 Church street, at 4 o’clock.
The services were in charge of
Dr. Carl W. Minor, pastor of First
Baptist Church, assisted by Rev.
Belay T. Brookshire, pastor of C«m
tral Baptist Church. The choir
from Central Baptist Church rend
ered the song s Which Mr. Andrews
had loved most in life, and the oc
casion hvas one of the most solemn
ever held in the city. Interment
was in Oak Grove cemetery in the
family lot.
Pallbearers were R. E. Allison
W. I. Lane, Dr. T, M. Merritt, G.
A. McNeill, J. E.. Sheppard, and \V.
E. Mitchell. <
Mr. Andrews is survived by his
wife, who was Miss Nettie Warlick,
one daughter, Miss Emmie Kate
Andrews, and four sons, Robert
Andrews, Frank Andrews and
George Andrews, all of whom reside
in Americus, and Albert Andrews,
who is now a resident of Shelton, S.
C. His aged mother, Mrs. Cath
erine Andrews, also survives, and
one brother, W. M. Andrews, of this
city, who was associated with him in
business.
Mr. Andrews was one of the best
known and most beloved residents
of this city, where, during a resi
dence of eight years or longer, -he
drew about him a coterie of friends
who held him in the highest esteem.
His death has cast a pall of sad
ness oyer the entire community.
Having been born and reared in
Marion county, he spent his boyhood
and young manhood On the large
plantations owned and opeiyited by
his father, under whose direction he
learned the methods which made him
in later years one of the most suc
cessful farmers of Sumter county, to
which county he removed several
years ago. At the time of His
death, Mr. Andrews was in posses
sion of one of the most progressive
real estate enterprises in the city,
associated with him his brother.
Mr. Andrews moved to Americus
from one of his farms near the city
about eight years, and came into
possession of one of Americus’ hand
somest homes, where he resided with
his family until his death. He was
renowned for his patriotic princi
ples, having given two of his sons
to service overseas with a proper
pride. When they were restored to
him safe, he was more than glad to
have been the means of thus serv-.
ing hig country through his young
sons.
Mr. Andrews was in apparently
the best health until recently, when
he was found early Wednesday eve
ning, March 4. near the intersection
of Lamar and Forsyth streets in an
unconscious condition, caused from
a stroke of appoplexy, which result
ed in his death late Saturday night.
He was 57 years of age at his death.
He was a member of Missionary
Baptist Church and was identified
with the interests of his chosen
church here. He was also a mem
ber of the Woodmen of the World,
and of the Masonic order.
The large concourse of friends
which followed him with sorrowing
hearts to his last resting place, and'
the many and beautiful floral offer
ings Which were contributed attest
ed to the high esteem in which he
was held as a citizen of Americus,
one whose place will be hard to fill.

densely populated country in Latin-
America.

The Circus Elephant Was Talking to His Parents
IMANCY and Nick and Fli.ppety-Flap
* ’ the fairyman; wort? hidden in a
tree-top Th the jungte, listening.
Squeak, the circus elephant, was
talking to his parents.
“Yes,” said he, “peanuts are the
most delicious things in the world,
and they grow in beautiful pink and
blue striped paper bags. The paper
bags grow in large bunches on a
white stand wth lovely bowls on each
side. Iq one bowl is the pink juice
and in the other, yellow. I suppose
it’s juice out of the peanuts, be
cause they arc so dry. You eat the
peanuts first, and then drink theri
juice. I know how delicious it is,
because one night when the rope
slipped by which I was tied, I got as
far as the peanut stand and drank it
all. Yum, it was marvelous! I can
taste it yet.”
“You don’t say,” remarked Mrs.
Elephant, proud of her son’s experi
ence.

“Besides that,” went on Squeak,
I flapping his ears, a man stood neai

Then people stepped up as he told
’em, and handed the man a iitrl

two paper bags, and then they came
and gave nearly all the peanuts to
me.”
“Well, I declare!” grunted Mr. Ele

Dear Peter:
Just come outter Judge
Griffin's court room. Wrong,
wrong, again. I was a wit
ness, not the defendant
But I was thinking as I
sat down to write you, what
a funny old world this is.
They was trying a case
down there, something about
one nigger owing another
nigger ten dollars and the
other nigger owed the
first nigger twenty dollars,
and those lawyers was a
scrapping about the set-off
(whatever that was.)
Well, as I figured it that
wasn’t moren ten or twenty
dollars involved if both was
guilty.
f
But, believe me, there was
two smart lawyers, sweat
ing and tearing at each other.
A couple of bailiffs run
ning around trying to keep
order, and Judge Griffin
smoking and trying to follow
the fight.
Everybody mad and hot
and it was after dinner time.
And I just thought that that
good old judge Was over
looking a good bet.
«
If he had a thought of it
< •
and called one of those bail
iffs and said:
■"'Mr. Bailiff, you go across
the street and get me two or
three bottles of good, cold
CHERG-COLA, bottled all
frosty and chilly-like, and
you bring it back and give a
bottle to each of those scrap
ping lawyers;” ,
Just think how happy
they would have been been,
and I wouldn’t have been
late for my dinner.
Your old buddy,
PAUL.

To look one’s best and feel one’s best!
is to enjoy an inside bath each morning!
to flush from the system the previous
day’s waste, sour fermentations and poi
sonous toxins before it is absorbed into
the blood. Just as coal, when it burns,
leaves behind a certain amount of in
combustible material in the form of
ashes, so the food and drink taken each
day leave in the alimentary organs a
certain amount of indigestible material,
which if not eliminated, form toxins and
poisons which are then sucked into the
blood through the very ducts which are
intended to suck in only nourishment to
sustain the body.
If you want to see the glow of healthy
bloom in your cheeks', to see your skin
get clearer and clearer, you are loid to
drink every morning upon arising, a
glass of hot water with a teaspoonful
of limestone phosphate in it, which is a
harmless means of washing the waste
material and toxins from the stomach,,
liver, kidneys and bowels, thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the entire
PAGE THREE
alimentary tract, before putting more';
food into the s.omach.
Girls and women with sallow skills,
liver spots, pimples or pallid complex* .
ion. also those who wake up vyitii a
coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, >
others who are bothered with headaches,
bilious spells, acid stomach or constipa
tion should begin this phosphated not 2
water drinking and are assured of very
pronounced results in one or two weeks.
A quarter pound of limestone pbps.'
phate costs very little at the drug store
but is sufficient to demonstrate that just ■
as soap and hot water eleanses, purifies
and freshens the skin on the outside, so
hot water and limestone phosphate act -
on the inside organs. We must always"
consider that internal sanitation is vast.-,.,
ly more important than outside, cleanli*
ness, because the akin pores do not ah-'
sorb impurities into the blood, while the
bowel pores do.
Women who desire to enhance thd.
beauty of their complexion should just
try this for a week and notice results.
