And, as a president’s power of will Sometimes depends on a liver-pill, Mr. Polk took Ayer’s Pills I trow For his liver, 50 years ago. Ayer’s Cathartic Pills Were designed to supply a model purgative to people who had so long injured themselves with griping medicines. Being carefully prepared and their in¬ gredients adjusted to the exact necessities of the bowels and liver, their popularity was in¬ stantaneous. That this popu¬ larity has been maintained is well marked in the medal awarded these pill3 at the ■World's Fair 1S93. 50 Years of Cures. Engines & B oilers J Gins and Presses.

Memorial services and the ira veiling of the Confederate mon¬ ument St this place have been deferred until April 80, which is the last Saturday in April. Gen. C. A. Evans will be here ou that occasion and a great moot ing of the old veterans and their friends will be had. The i a( ik>s m charge have worked hard and secured a nice monu meat to perpetuate the memory of our ex-soldiers and everything j s expected to be in readiness to honor the 80th with their pres¬ ence here to do honor to those brave friends. The two most critical times in a woman’s life are the times which make the girl a woman, and the woman a mother. At these times Dr. Pierce’s Fayorito Prescrip tion is of incalculable value. It strengthens , ,, and i invigorates the organs distinctly feminine, pro¬ motes regularity of the functions, allays irritation and inllamation, checks unnatural exhausting drains, and puts the whole deli¬ cate organism into perfect con¬ dition. Almost all the ills of womankind are traceable to some form of what is known as “female complaint.” There are not three cases in a hunderd of woman’s peculiar diseases that Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip¬ tion will not cure. Clean Your Squares. Our people should get their squares in the cemetery cleaned off for Memorial day services. The ladies who have here-tcK fore been looking after such do not feel able to continue in that capacity and it is earnestly de¬ sired that the cemetery have as good appearance as possible and and if each owner ofsquares will clean off and put their individual squares in order, all will look well. Do not delay the matter as it is important to have the cemetery looking all right on tha 20 th.

No discovery of modern years has been of greater benefit to mankind than Cham berlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, or has done more to relieve pain and suffer¬ ing. J. W. Vaugh. of Oakton, Ky., says: “I have used Cham¬ berlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in my family for several years, and find it to be the best medicine I ever used for cramps in the stomach and bowels.

He is the one who fox¬ like secured the keys and liber ated the others. There is only one more of the escapes at large, Sheriff Henry went over Eatonton Tuesday and brought the prisoner back. Two years ago R. J. Warren, a druggist at Pleasant Brook, N. Y bought a small supply of Chamberlain s Cough Remedy. He sums up the result as follows: “At that time the goods were unknown in this section; to-day Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is a household word. ” It is the same in hundreds of communi ties.
