Dangerous Coughs
Go Quickly With Old-
Time Pine-Tar Honey
Perhaps the best remedy ever dis
covered for a persistent cough that has
hung on and on, and which may de
velop Into si more serious condition, is that
old-time tried and proved medicine that our
parent* and grandpa rents relied on-Dr .Bell's
rme-Tar Honey. '1 lie prompt relief is almost
magical, and a day's use will often break up a
bad cough or chert cold entirely. Doctors say
the pine tar quickly looaens and removes the
phlegm and congestion which are the direct
rauae of the rough, alto healing soreness,
while the honey both soothes irritation and
gives a pleasant taste.
But Ire sure you get the genuine and original
Dr. Bell's Pine-Tar Honey, and no other.
There have been many imitations, but the
otigmal i* still the best, as it is scientifically
compounded of just the right proportions of
11 nr tar, honey and other healing ingredients
which the bent doctors have found to aid In
quick relief. For cough*, chest colds, bronchi
tis and almost every other throat irritation,
including children's spasmodic croup. Often
flops a severe cough overnight. Dr. Bell's is
only 30c at any good diuggisla.

I would get down in bed, . .
My mother came to see me

I for. it i i.v Milford with convtc
i Hon, pointing fo fin* old colonial build
| frig ut the end of the village street.
“I wonder bow much It would cost
us, Kills?" whispered Dorothy, clinging
fo his nriri.
Kills Milford was u hard-working
clerk In (Me of the big insurance of
fices, :iml iheir home hud been only a
four-room flat In the dusty city. Hut
every Sunday they hud gone forth
from the metropolis dreaming of just
such a place as this.
Tl e house had been untenanted for
many years, and it was rumored that
the owner resided !,i England. No,
there had never been any effort to rent
It, It would he hard to do so. anyway,
because nobody wanted an old-fash
ioned bouse when you could get n
brand new one on the l.istnllment plan.
Ar which Information Dorothy's heart
heat high with secret Joy.
"You see, Ellis, It is my English
blood," she explained. “You know
grandfather was an Englishman, and
though l never saw him, I k.iovv I have
Inherited Ills taste for Just such un
old fashioned hitne."
Dorothy’s grandfather laid settled In
America and calmly disinherited his
s'*n, Dorothy’s father. Still, Dorothy
always attributed all the English traits
in her disposition to tills seml-mythlcal
person.
"Dorothy,” exclaimed her husband,
“let’s go Inside and have a look around.
I saw one of the window shutters was
nearly off Its hinge, and I believe the
window behind It Is broken."
It was broken. Ellis climbed through
and, standing Inside, swung Dorothy
Into the room. They wandered from
room to room. It was true the Interior
was In poor condition. Hut still the
house was habitable, and a little money
hi vested Judiciously would turn It Into
a very comfortable abode. And, the
greatest find of all, In the attic there
was old furniture, all sorts of odds and
ends which would go far toward the
furnishing of the less showy rooms, at
least.
’•Kills," said Dorothy, in n tone
which even three months of married
life had taught him to attend to, “we
must have this house."
“You ain't going to live there, nre
,ve?" Inquired a villager who watched
them emerge through the front gate
with 111-concealed Interest.
“Yes, we have rented this place from
the first of next month," Dorothy an
swered,
“Well, I swan!" exclaimed the yokel.
“Dorothy," sold Ellis reproachfully,
when they were out of Ids hearing.
“Hut, Kills. I meant It," declared
Dorothy, almost crying. “My dear, we
are going to have the rooms papered
and the windows mended and move-in
on the first. And when the landlord
calls to make trouble for us we'll have
the rent ready for him."
Dorothy's words proved prophetic,
for on the first day of the month fol
lowing it motorvnn stopped In front of
llu* old house and Dorothy superintend
ed the disgorging of the furniture.
"They’ll turn us out," said Kilts,
when they were settled at their fire
side, gazing admiringly upon the new
ly-papered walls.
"Not tf we have the rent, my dear,”
said Dorothy.
Summer came on and soon the gar
den was ablaze with flowers. Kills
roultl hardly wait for the clock to strike
to leave Ids office. And as the months
rolled ly and the neighbors took their
occupancy of the house as a matter of
course, their fears gradually dwindled
until -
Until Hint Sunday moraine when the
strange limn emne walking up the mid
dle drive.
The newcomer was an Englishman,
hut he appeared much less angry than
Dorothy anil her husband had antici
pated. In fact, his first words were
decidedly apologetic.
•Tin sorry to trouble you,” he saltl,
"and I don’t know, of course, what
your title will show; hut the fact Is,
there Is reason to believe that this
property Is part of an estate which I
have come over front London to han
dle on behalf of the heirs. It seetns
to have been forgotten, as tlie owner
did not enumerate It In bis will. You
have your title-deeds?”
No, Kills bad no title-deeds. In fact,
he was so equally embarrassed that he
blurted out the history of the acquisi
tion.
"Most extraordinary! Most extraor
dinary !” said the visitor. “What a
tribute to the —er —masterful habits of
your great nation your action Is. Now.
In my country, nobody would ever
dream of taking a house he fancied —”
“Perhaps your countrymen aren’t so
quick with the rent,” said Dorothy.
“You see, we have four months’ all
ready for whoever the land'ord is."
“M.v dear young lady, l thought l
explained to you that he was dead.”
replied the other, "lie was an eccen
tric character, old Mr. Samuel I.oft—”
•'What'." said Dorothy, rising and
staring hard at the visitor. "Who's
his granddaughter? Quick! Answer
me!”
"Ah, there you have me." answered
the Englishman "If we knew that we
could trace back the ownership—”
"Don't worry,” answered Dorothy.
“Here she Is. Oh. Ellis, this was grand

RUTHERFORD GOES TO
NATIONAL CAPITOL
Congressman-elect Sam Ruther
ford, of Forsyth, who will represent
the Sixth District, has gone to Wash
ington for the purpose of familiar
izing himself with the national capi
tol and the action of Congress prior
to March 4, when he will be sworn
in and take his seat. His term be
gins on that date.
“I want to get a line on things
and get acquainted with some of the
Congressmen from other states,”
said Mr. Rutherford. “Of course
there isn’t much I can say at this
time about what I hope to be able
to do, except to exert myself the
best I can for the district I represent.
“Particularly I expect to devote
attention as best I can to whatever
promises to bring about a better and
broader system of marketing and the
distribution of our farm products
through co-operation of the Federal
Government. I do feel a particular
interest in that matter, for it so
vitally affects the people of our state
—particularly an agricultural state
—to broaden the scope of what al
ready is being done in the matter of
developing a successful marketing
system. 1 believe we now must go
more thoroughly into the matter of
distribution of the crops than we
have thus far, and in that particular
field I think there is a ripe field for
federal aid and co-operation. I hope
to be able to do something material
along that line.”
In Memory of
Robert Burnette Colwell
On Monday night, December 29th.
our dear brother and nephew, Rob
ert Burnette Colwell, passed from
this life into eternity.
He was at the home of his uncle,
Mr. B. J. Burnette, at Dawson, Ga.
Robert was confined to his bed five
weeks with typhoid fever before the
end came. Everything that loving
friends and physicians could do was
done. But our dear God knew best,
lie wanted that which we could not
keep. But oh, how we shall miss
him. Never more to come into our
homes to cheer and help, make life
bright.
His character was of the noblest
and kindliest. His Christian life was
perfect. Every one who knew Rob
ert knew a perfect man, a model.
The earnest desire of his heart was
‘‘Do unto others as you would have
them do unto you.” This seemed to
be his motto and he lived by it. No
one can doubt that.
Robert’s life is such a sweet con
solation and blessing to our poor
hearts.
He was born October 25, 1901, and
at the time of his death he was 23
years, two months and four days old.
Robert is survived by his father,
six brothers, one sister and a great
host of relatives and friends, who
mourn his loss.
What words of cheer and comfort
can we say in behalf of his soul that
he himself did not prove.
He united with the Missionary
Baptist church in 1918.
Dear loved ones let us take Rob
ert’s life for an example. Let us
try to make our lives as pure as his.
I shall never forget what he said
in our home: ‘‘When God calls me,
lam ready to go. There is nothing
in my way. I have tried to live as
God would have me.” What a bless
ing these words are for 1 know Rob
ert is at rest.
Since his darling mother’s death
he has longed to meet her, and I can
not hold back my tears when I think
“what a glorious happy meeting.”
Dear ones, Robert is not dead, but
only sleeping.
He has died to live again
On that eternal shore.
With loved ones there he’s hand in
hand,
Never to part no more.
Thy orecious face we cannot see;
Thy voice we know is stilled;
Your place is vacant in our homes
And never can be tilled.
But, dearest brother, we hope to
meet you
On that eternal shore,
In Heaven above we long to greet
you
Where we’ll never part any more.
Dear Robert is only sleeping;
Then why be sad today ?
In God’s eternal keeping
Ilis soul is safe for aye.
By his aunt,
EDNA M. BURNETTE.

LOVELY BIRTHDAY DINNER
One of the loveliest affairs of the
holiday season was carried out at the
ideal country home of Mr. and Mrs.
Ottis Stallings on New Year’s day
in honor of Mr. Stallings’ birthday.
Although the day was grey and
cheerless without, within their home
the fires were burning brightly and
their doors were thrown open to fifty
of their relatives and friends.
The four long loaded tables were
beautifully decorated with flowers
and fruits. There was every thing
good to eat from the beautifully
browned barbecue to the most deli
cate cake3 and candies. In fact,
words cannot fully portray or express
the scene or pleasure of the occasion.
In the afternoon a number of dif
ferent games were played, also sev
eral musical selections given. There
was not a dull moment nor the slight
est thing to mar the happiness of
those present and everybody was
unanimous in saying it was indeed
a perfect day that came to a close
with many good wishes for the
Health and Happiness of Mr. and
Mrs. Stallings.
