A good looking man or woman who can smile is a sure winner in business or in love. A good appetite means smiles and health; but how many enjoy their food? They suffer from liver trouble or indigestion and life becomes a burden. To feel well, the blood must be pure and rich; if it is impure, rnanv ills are sure to follow. An old reliable medicine good for stomach and liver is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis covery, made of herbs and roots brought in by the Indians from their nearby Reservations. It has relieved thou sands, and will help you. Try it, MOTHERS Watch for sj-mptoms of worms in your children. These parasites are the great destroyers of child life. If you have reason to think your child has worms, act quickly. Give the little one a dose or two of White’s Cream Vermifuge. Worms cannot exist where this time-tried and successful remedy is used. It drives out the worms and restores the rosy hue of health to baby cheeks. Price 35c. Sold by Americus Drug Co. Carswell Drug Co. beforetW WEREBORN Was Very Miserable.

I got up feeling fine and have taken care of the twins alone ever since. I recommend the Vegetable Compound highly and will sing its praises in the future.”— —Mrs. Ida Gerbitz, Wyocena, Wig. It is remarkable bow many cases have been reported similar to this one. Many mothers are left in a weakened and run-down condition after child birth, and for such mothers the care of the baby is well-nigh impossible. Not only is it hard for the mother, but the child itself will indirectly suffer. Lydia E.Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound is an excellent tonic for the mother both before and after child birth. It is prepared from medicinal i roots and herbs, and can be taken I in safety by nursing mothers. THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER YOUNG BOY PUZZLES COLUMBUS POLICE COLUMBUS, March 20.—The Waverly hotel has an eleven-year old guest, who has succeeded in mystifying the officials and the po lice who have attempted to locate his relatives. The youth gives his name as Paul Kittrell, of 529 Twen ty-first street in Atlanta, but the lo cal police found that there is no such address in Atlanta. The youthful guest is calm and perfectly composed. He is enjoying his stay at the Waverly and is not worrying in the least about his en forced visit in Columbus. Sunday night the boy walked into the Waverly and, barely able to see over the desk, asked the clerk what it would cost him to get a room for the night. He explained that his father was a railroad man in Atlan- To the Voters of Sumter County It is all over but the shouting and the other fellow is doing that. I wish to expres my most sincere thanks for the support I recieved and also my appreciation of the courteous treatment accorded me in my canvass ing. My conscience is clear. I conducted an absolutely clean campaign. I shall, wherever I can, assist the winner. B. E. THRASHER We 23,000 Men ‘Present you the utmost in fine cars ■J fk T ness.

The Most Critical Part of Your Anatomy and Physiology You are a wise man or woman if you understand your colon and keep it in perfect working order. Health, happiness, vigor and long life are the gifts which an active colon gives you—and a lazy colon takes away. But, back to our question:— What is your colon; where is your colon; why is your colon? Listen at tentively for only a minute and you may learn something that will add twenty years to your life. Your colon is the last five feet of your digestive canal. It is your sewerage system; your garbage can, so to speak. Keep it clean and you are well and happy; let it stagnate and it will distill the poisons of decay, fermentation (gas) and pu trefaction into your blood, poison ing your brain and nerves so that you are restless, irritable and blue; poisoning your heart so that you are weak, listless and lazy; poisoning your lungs so that your breath is heavy o* foul; poisoning your stomach and digestive or gans so that you are bloated, belch ing and uncomfortable with gas pains; poisoning your blood so that unhealthy; poisoning every part and your skin looks yellow, sallow and organ of your body, through your blood, making you look and feel old and ugly long before your time; making your joints and your back stiff and rheumatic, your eyes dull and your brain sluggish. By the perfect law of Nature, your colon should empty itself three times a day—within an hour after eating. Does your colon work that well? If not, it has lost its tone. What do we mean by tone? Your colon is a hollow muscle. Its walls are made up of long, muscle fibres You are a wise man or woman if you understand your colon and keep it in perfect working order. Health, Belgians have seized $200,000 in gold going to Germany. This is enough gold t 0 fill the teeth of many tourists. happiness, vigor and long life are the gifts which an active colon gives you—and a lazy colon lakes away, or muscle cells which, by their con traction, empty the colon just as you would squeeze a rubber hose or pipe. These muscle fibres should contract three times a day—within an hour after each meal. If they do not contract, they have lost their tone—their power to contract. But, there is a practically per fect remedy for lazy, flabby colons. This remedy quickly restores the tone, is absolutely harmless and decidedly pleasant to take. Clip this article and take it to your drug gist. 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 drug gist has been instructed to refund the price and ask no questions if his customer is not thoroughly satis fied. But you will be'delighted with Colotone for it will make you feel like a different person. Your eyes will sparkle with vitality and alert ness- your brain will be clear and activl; your complexion will be fresh and transparent, reflecting the purity of your blood; your digestion will be thorough and your appetite keen, for your food will taste de lightful and will agree with you; you will sleep and awake refreshed; your system will be full of vim and vigor; you will feel younger, stronger, vigorous- -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 delighted with it. Colotone cannot possibly do you any harm—it can only do you good. Try it on our guarantee. It will help you live long, well and happily.— (adv.)

There are few cars in America, re- 73 gardless of price, which equal ours : " on this point. In our Light-Six, for ' instance, we put more Timken bear ings than are used in any competitive car, within $1,500 of its price. We give unusual equipment. On some Big-Six models, for instance, we include two nickel-plated bump ers, one or two extra disc wheels with cord tires, a courtesy light, a motometer, steel trunk, etc. How we do this We give you these ex tra values through quan tity production. We build 150,000 cars per year more than any other fine-car builder. Our large expenses are divided by that enormous output. We do it by building our own bodies, our own parts. Thus we save out side profits. We do it because we have up-to-date plants, with all forms of modern equipment. * * * —————J The results are these: Beauty, quality and luxury such as no maker can surpass. Prices far below the usual. Our Light-Six, built by ordinary methods, would sell for from S2OO to S4OO more. Our Big-Six can be compared only with the highest-priced cars in the world. Here are 13 models, from $1,025 to $2,685. Each of them offers scores of advantages over any comparable car. They offer such values that the trend toward Studebakers has be come overwhelming.
