You are a wise man or woman if

U Your colon is the last five feet

i so to speak. Keep it clean and you

sryour brain and nerves so that you

iers, heroic leaders, and wise
statesmen, when she joined the
other colonies to fight for liberty.
The opening years of the Revolu
tionary war were years of intellec
tual ferment and political reac
tion. Men were beginning to think
for themselves and along new lines
! They were breaking qway from
| the old theological donination Poli
! tics and religion were being dis
associated, theocracy was giving
v.ay for democracy.
The Revolution was a result not
so much of oppression as a new
conception of liberty. The Stamp
Act would have caused no real d's
tress, but it was odious as an ob
stacle to the progress of new
ideas. Loyalty for England sutD
denly changed to love for America
On July 4th, 1775 a provincial
congress was held at Savannah, bv
the authority of the people, and
in defiance of the authority of the
King. While the'congress was tn
session a British Warship arrived.
Commissionerd by the congress,
Commodore Bowen and Major
Joseph Habershaw with a number
of volunteers boarded the ship
off Tybee Island. This was the
first naval capture of the Revolu
tion.
When the convention declar-
you would squeeze a rubber hose
pipe. These muscle fibres should
contract three times a day—within
in hour after each meal. If they do
i | not contract, they have lost their
! tone —their power to contract.
But, there is a practically perfect
remedy for lazy, flabby colons. This
| remedy quickly restores the tone, is
; absolutely harmless and decidedly
pleasant to take. Clin this article
and take it to your druggist. Tell
him to give you a bottle of Colotone
—the colon tonic, it will cost you
one dollar if you are pleased with
it, nothing if you are not pleased
with it. for every druggist has been
• instructed to refund the price and
ask r>o questions if his customer is
not thoroughly satisfied.
But you will be delighted with
Colotone for it will make you feel
like a different person. Your eyes
‘will sjfarkle with vitality and alert
ness; ypur, brain will be clear and
active'; pour complexion will be
*-ffpsh.iiijd transparent, reflecting
.the purity of your blood; your di
gestion will be thorough and your
appetite keen, for your food will
taste delightful and will agree with
you; you willi sleep and awake re
freshed; your system will he full
of vim and vigor; you will feel
younger,' stronger, vigorovp—you
will enjoy the pleasure of living.
Get started on Colotone today.
Nearly every person over twenty
five or thirty years of age, and
many younger, need Colotone more
or less. You will be simply delight
ed with it. Colotone can not possi
bly do you any harm—it can only
do you good. Try it on our guaran

ed the thirteen colonies free and j
independent, July 4th, 1776, Geor !
gia’s delegation was /there, and I
George Walt,on-Lyman Hall and !
Button Gwinnett signed in behaf I
of Georgia. The people then ar- I
rested the pi’ovince governor who
represented the King and organiz
ed a government of their own. The
people Aius united became the
state of (ieorgia.
War was no longer prospective,
it was a grim fact. The part Geor
gia was to play in the struggle
for freedom was indeed not negli
gible, and we must bear in mind
that she had to contend with pow
erful and openly hostile tribes of
Indians to the West, and Spaniards
to the South, whose friendship
cold 1 not he relied upon, but hin
derances did ot lower tbei morale
of a people whose hearts beat for
liberty and independence. It. would
be too volumnnous to narrate
every patriotic act heroic deed,
and individual valor evidenced so
often during the perilous years of
the Revolution. TThcrcfore *only
and account of the most conspi
cious can be given.
It is familiar to very student of
history that the war was .trans
ferred to the South in 1778, and
Savannah was captured and Geor
gia was overrun by British sold
ieds. Then when all seemed lost,
that bold general, Anthony Wayne
with the help of the partisans of
the state was able to regain the
strongholds and iinally to drive
Die British out of the state.
Col. John Mclntosh a brave
hero, when in command of Fort
Morris, received word from a Bri
tish general to surrender. Col
Mclntosh boldly replied: ‘“Ctome
and Take It.’ Thtj fort did not capi
tulatc. Later the Georgia legisla
ture presented to Col Mclntosh a
sword with the words, “Come anl
take it,” engraved upon It.
We must not overlook the bra
very of Sergeant Jasper, who with
a lone comrade rescued a number
of American prisoners who were
in the custody of ten British sold
iers being taken to Savannah fov
trial.
Another brave, pure, and patrio
tic Georgian who served gallantly
throughout the Revolutionary war
was General James Jackson. In
the battles in and around Savan
nah he especially distinguished

governor, and history records him
as one- the greatest ‘governors
Geprgia ever had. He was respon
sible for the Yuzop Fraud defeat,
resigning his scat in the United
States senate ’to become a mem
ber of his States legislature, in
order to accomplish it. lie is the
only man in the history of our
nation who gave up being senator j
to go to the state legislature.
Lyman Hall, one of the signers i
of the Declaration of Independ- j
ence, though he never bore arms,
promptly took sides with the pat
riots when the storm of the Revo
lution began to lower and to them
he was a tower of strength. Geor,
I gia has fittingly perpetuated; his
memory by naming one of her
of her counties for him, and so
long as freedom and independence
live, so long will the memory of
I Lyna Hall be remembered.
George Walton, the youngest
of the signers of the Declaration
of Independence from Georgia,
immortalized his . name in the
pages of history, through his ser
vice in the War, particularly in his
defence of'; .Savannah. lie held
many offices of honor and trust.
Walton county was named for him
Button Gwinnett, the remain
ing signer of the Declaration of
Independence, did not leave
cord so enviable as did Walton,
and Hall. Within two years he
arose from obscurity to promin
ence. His loyalty to America has
been questioned, but the mere
fact that his /'signature is attached
to that immortal paper which de
dal es us free and independent
seems to speak otherwise. His
memory too, has been perpeluated
by one of Georgia’s most prosper
ous coilhties bearing) "ms name.
Time will never aim the name
of Clark in the memory and ap
preciation of patriotic Georgians,
in fact , as the years go by it will
become more luminous. Than Gen
eral Eljah Clark the Revolution
did not produce a braver soldier,
or patriotic leader. His son John
