HE VOTING TO CLOSE
IN JUST TWO WEEKS
Time is the supreme test of all things, and the very
lest recommendation of S. S. S. is that it has stood a long
test and is now oftener used, and has the confidence of a
greater number of people than any other blood medicine.
The blood is the vital force of life; thehealth-preserv-
ing element and motive power of the system. Every or
gan, nerve, muscle, tissue and sinew of the body is de
pendent directly on the blood for nourishment and
strength. As itcirculates through the system, pure and
rich, it furnishes to these different members the health
ful properties needed to sustain and enable them to per
form their various duties. So long as the blood remains
free from infection we are apt to be healthy, but any im
purity, humor or poison in the circulation affects some
portion of the general health. t
Bad blood may come from various causes, such as sluggish condition of
the system, imperfect bowel and kidney action, indigestion, etc., or the
trouble may be inherited, but whatever the source the blood must be puri
fied before the body can be healthy. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes,
and the various skin affections show that the blood is in a feverish condition
as the result of some humor, or the presence of an irritating, fiery acid.
Rheumatism comes from an excess of
uric acid in the circulation, while Ca
tarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Scrofula, and
Contagious Blood Poison, are all deep
seated brood disorders.
S. S. S. is a natural blood purifier
and tonic. If is made entirely of the
juices and extracts of roots, herbs and
barks of recognized curative ability,
and being free from all harmful min
erals is an absolutely safe medicine
for young or old. S. S. S. goes into
the circulation and removes every
trace of impurity, humor or poison. It freshens and enriches the blood
and cures promptly and permanently Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Sores,
and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Contagious Blood Poison, and all other blood dis
orders. S. S. S. is the most reliable medicine for those whose blood has be
come weak and who aresuffering from Anaemia, Malaria or other debilitating

Trip to Tybee is
the Incentive.
BUILDS UP THE HEALTH.
I have used 8. S. S. quite exten
sively* and know it to be the best
of blood purifiers. It is vegetable,
as you claim, and does not injure
the system in the least, but on
the contra builds up the general
Health while ridding the blood of
all poisons and Impurities. I feel
better in every way since taking
your medicine, and am firm in the
opinion that it is all you claim for
it in the cure of blood troubles.

W. E. WOOD, 213 Forsyth St.
The great auto run about the sia'
circling Georgia over or.t thousand
miles of road, and passing through
Sumter county, has attracted more at
tention locally than any event n the
world of autoing since niacitCnes be
came popular here and the purchase
of them began on a wholesale scale.
"While I will not enter a machine
and personally would nut cate to un
dertake the long ride over the s ate,"
said Chairman Sheffield, of the coun
ty commissioners, "I can appreciate
the great value of the proposed con
test to the state as a whole. While
the good road3 movement is not lan-j
guishing, there are still a number of
counties in which it needs stimulating
to the end that there may be event
ually complete systems of fine high
ways throughout the state. As it
now a county here and a county there
lias fine roads, but an intervening
county too often has miserable roads,
breaking the- continuity of travel.
Once we can do away with this, have
the various > county good roads sys
tems comocled up, I believe that Geor
gia will bs the mecca of thou sands I
of people from the X'c: : i ard |
every while:*, people of means eag-trj
to see the state, will ag to spend their:
money fre-ly it; doing no, and I; .;.*.-
to have their interest so arc ted that
they will bern-w' regular winter visi
tors, and pe.-a... : some of 11 L t:tt msv
become ir—?*->rs.
Has Great .'.d'f rtlslng Value.
“I fully appreciate the great adver
ting value of this contest to Sumter
count,” continued Chairman Shef
field. “Every car that starts on the
run, from perhaps thirty or forty
cities or towns will come to Americus
and will pass over the good roads of
Sumter In going through the county.
This county will take front rank In
counties t aveled that have fine
highways. They will carry the news
to their home counties and wherever
they go. I really believe the value to
our county from the contest, in this
way will be Immeasurable. I will
certainly watch the development of
the preliminary arrangements with
the greatest of Interest and will do
all that lies in my power to stimulate
and ass st it. I believe the interest
will grow and It would not be sur
prising If there were hundreds of
cars starting at the same hour in this
tour of the state.”
..Sumter Con Win Prize.
President Frank Lanier, of the
Americus Automobile Club, I 3 another
one who sees the Importance of the
road contest next October. Like
Chairman Sheffield, he sees the great
advertising value for Georgia and for
Sumter county. “I believe we can
easily carry off a prize." said he yes
terday in discussing the coming event.
"With our magnificent Smithville road
which can be given any attention
needed Just before the event, and
with the Oglethorpe road fixed in time
for the tour, I veritably feel convinc
ed that a roqd prize is already as good
given to Sumter county. We must
see to it that this is the case. I can.
not think of anything that would do
more Just now, .when so muchi atten
tlon is centered on this subject of
good roads, than to have It go out all
over the country, in the newspapers
and the various Journals given up in
whole or in part to automobiling, that
Sumter county won the prize, as hav
ing the finest roads traversed In the
entire western half of Georgia,
even In the entire state, for we can
make these roads the best wlthi little
trouble and expense. Tens of thous
ands would recognize in that fact that
Sumter county was a county of en
terprise and progress and such a rep
utation Is worth an enormous sum to
a county.”
Others talk in a similar strain. The
auto fever here is apt to grow more
Intense right along through the sum
mer and Americus will be very apt
to have several cars entered for the
great fail event.

Thus tauds the three fair conte
ants In the spirited race for the two
prizes offered by the Times-Recorder
to the two most popular ladles in
Sumter county—the first a round trip
to Xew York, with all expenses paid,
and the second prize a week at Ty
bee.
Both trips will he rendered most en
joyable, and the contest is eagerly
waged by the ladies and their many
good friends.
It has been in progress now for
more than a month, and thousands
and tens of thousands of coupons liavc>
been clipped from the Daily and
Weekly editions of the Times-Re
corder and either held in reserve or
voted for the contestants.
Only two weeks remain, as the con
test ends .May 31st and then will it be
known which of the contestants will
go away as guests of the Times- Re
corder.
