Some counties in the state report good rains and crops srowiDBfinely ' The daily papers give us occasional good item of news from the war.

The Atlanta Constitution has this to say about weekly pa¬ pers: “No form or character of publication gets us close to its readers as the county or local weekly. No publication has the same intimate relations with its subscribers. Other papers may Ik* more widely read, but are not as closely read, nor arc they us faithfully preserved from week to week The county weekly goes into homes that other current publications ever reaches, and they are very sub tantia! homes, too. ” S OME persons say it is natural for them to lose flesh during summer. But losing flesh is losing ground. Can you alford to approach another win ter in this weakened con dition? Coughs and colds,weak throats and lungs, come quickest to those who are thin in Ucsh, to those ens ily chilled, to those who have poor circulation and feeble digestion. Scoffs Emulssost of cod iigtcr oil •with hypo phosphites does just as much good in summer as in winter. It makes flesh in August as well as April.
