THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIjVlES-RECORDER. THURSDAY. APRIL 14. 1910 NATURE’S * TONIC BIG flRt IN COMPRESS BURNS UP 400 BALES Any system that needs a tonic needs alsq a blood puri- ffier. for it is the weakened, impure condition of thecircu- Jation that is responsible for the run-down state of health. The supreme office and duty of the bloo<l is to lur- i/nish nourishment to every portion of the body, rne cir- iSculatory system, magnificent and wonderful in its con struction, supplies the means for the distribution of sys temic nutriment to every muscle, nerve, bone, gland, sin ew and tissue of the body; and just as long as the blood .remains pure and rich each of these members are healthy, strong and normal. We have only to recognize the importance of pure .Mood in/ preserving health, to realize the danger of a 'weakened circulation. The use of a proper tonic when -the system is depleted and run-down will often prevent the development of some serious sickness, because weak , . — systems cannot resist disease, while healthy systems are able to ward it off. Deficient blood nutriment is usually manifested in a general bodily weakness, a tired, worn-out feeling, fickle appetite, poor digestion, etc. Sleep does not sufficiently refresh the body, and the languid feeling fre quently makes the ordinary duties of life burdensome. . a 3 S. S. S. is Nature’s Tonic. It is made entirely of botanical products gathered directly from the heart of Nature’s forests. It does not contain a particle of strong, harmful mineral in any form, but is a scientific composi tion of extracts and juices from herbs, roots and barks. S. S. S. is the great est of all tonics, because it is the greatest of all blood purifiers. It is not a nerve stimulant, but a medicine that steadily builds up every portion of the system by cleansing and en- richicg the blood, and in this way sup- tdving an increased amount of nourishment and strength to every portion of the body. S. S. S. rids the system of that tired, worn-out feeling, quiets the over-strained nerves, makes sleep refreshing, corrects any stomach disturb ance, promotes good digestion and adds vigor and vim to the entire system.

The fire protection In the town was wholly Inadequate to cope with the fire, espec'ally after It reached the •100 bales of cotton, and the flames quickly spread over the plant, making ]an(Jg trac t, embracing some eighty of it a fiery vortex. The origin of the fire Is supposed to have been accidental, probably re sulting from a spark. The cotton stored In the press was said to have been fully Insured. It 13 not known what amount of Insurance was carried upon the building. The R’ch'land press was about two years old and was owned principally by parties In that town, Columbus and Lumpkin.

The press was an Independent one and not In the combine of the Atlantic Compress Co., which controls nearly all the cotton compresses in Georgia. Look Well to Yonr Kidneys.
