New Way to
Quickly Stop
Dangerous Cough
It is almost criminally careless not to
properly attend a persistent cough,
which by seriously weakening the sys
tem lays you open to far more danger
ous infections. For by a very simple
treatment you can stop the coughing
spells almost instantly and often relieve
the stubbornest cough in 24 hours.
This simple treatment is based on a
remarkable prescription known as Dr.
King's New Discovery for Coughs. You
simply take a teaspoonful and hold it
in your throat for 15 or 20 seconds be
ture swallowing it, without following with
water. The prescription has a double action.
It not only soothes and heals soreness and irri
tation, but it quickly loosens and removes the
phlegm and congestion whioh are the direct
cttuit ot the coughing. The prompt reliel of
the heaviest cough seems almost magical.
The prescription Is highly recommeded for
coughs,chest colds,hoarseness and bronchitis,
and is wonderful for children's coughs and
spasmodic croup—no opiates or othe rha rmnj
drugs. Economical.too.asthedose is only one
teaspoordul. At all good druggists. Ask for

A TRIBUTE TO
ROBT. G. MATTHEWS
The going away of R. G. Mat
thews has unlocked the store house
of memory and a superanuated
Methodist preacher, Rev. Morgan
Bellah, is telling his grandchildren of
the old Upson County Camp Ground,
a circuit which he served in tlm
forties. This one of his long list oi
charges, which covered a period of
more than fifty years, stood out as
particularly fine because of the char
acter of the people. There were the
Hightower, the Blalock, the Gardner,
the Willis, the White, the Middle
brooks, the Lester, the Purifoy, the
Powell, the Matthews, the Lindsay
and the two Stephens and other fam
ilies.—a grand old race who lived on
their broad acres, attended by their
own servants. Life with them was
easy because of plenty and good, be
cause of contentment and the neigh
borliness that came from faith in
God, and confidence in each other.
Like Abraham of old they “command
ed their households" and their “faith
was counted to them for righteous
ness.”
It was fitting that the young of
these families should make new
homes together. Among them was
Fryer Matthews and Antoinette
Lindsay. It is of interest to note
that a famous Georgian, Judge Lin
ton Stephens, a relative of the Lind
says, was not only himself a fre
quent guest but found this communi
ty a safe vacation home for his
orphan half brother, Alexander
Stephens.
Seven sons were bom to Mr. and
Mrs. Fryer Matthews. Beginning
with the youngest death has claimed
them in the order of their ages and
with the passing of our friend six
have gone to their reward.
The second generations kept the
same family intimacies and in 1872
R. G. Matthews found the wife of
his youth, Mary Ellen Blalock,
among the daughters of R. J. Bla
lock, his father’s neighbor and
friend.
During the years of their married
life six children came to bless their
home. Mrs. Lucy Burr and Dr.
Isaac Matthews followed their moth
er, who in 1899 entered into that
perfect rest which is the reward of
the truly noble and good.
In 1900 Mr. Matthews found a
splendid companion in Mrs. Martha
Hitchcock of Toccoa, Ga., who for
twenty-five years has been to him
a stay and comfort and to his chil
dren a providential mother.
After leaving the life of the farm
Mr. Matthews engaged in mercan
tile ’ business, but Ithe work of a
traveling salesman occupied the
longest period of his activity. On
the road he was popular and well
beloved. He was companionable and
kind, interesting and dependable. He
believed in the daily observance of
the Golden Rule and lost no oppor
tunity to put it into practice. He
made occasions for doing good with
out waiting for them to appear. His
voice was gentle and his manner car
ried the courtesy naturally expected
from his rearing and his race.
There is a double sadness in the
going of such a man. He is mourned
not only as an individual who leaves
a vacancy in many lives, but it marks
the passing of a type —the true
Southern gentleman of old, far-off,
happy days when life was glad and
serene .
So anxious was Mr. Matthews to
see the return of the country life of
Georgia as it was in his youth that
he went back to his old home and
tried to restore the surroundings of
earlier years and do his part toward
bringing again the charm and inter
est of rural life. But conditions had
changed; the task was too great; he
yielded to the inevitable and came
back to spend an uncomplaining old
age in the home of his son.
Many fine things might be said of
his life and character, hut his faith
in God, his love for the church and
his ideal of friendship will compre
hend them all. He illustrated
friendship in his life and all who
heard his tribute to his friend, 0.
O. Summers, recall how beautifully
he put that ideal into words. In
that he showed himself friendly he
gathered friends innumerable along
the way and left for himself a monu
ment of uplifting memories in their
hearts. To his children there re
mains the priceless legacy of a father
who lived and died a Christian gen
tleman.

MY SISTER HAS GONE
It pleased our Heavenly Father to
call to her eternal reward Mrs. Eliza
beth Garland, on the 25th day of
January, 1925. The end came as a
result of old age and a general break
down resultant theretp. She was the
eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.
Lloyd Head of Pike county, Georgia.
She was married to R. H. J. Garland
April 19, 1855, and to this union
were born six children. She is sur
vived by two sons, Dr. H. J. Garland,
at whose home she died, in Griffin,
Ga., and Col. Byrd Garland, of At
lanta, Ga.; and one sister, Mrs. J. P.
Tomlinson, of Ray City, Ga., and
four brothers, Dr. J. J. Head and J.
L. Head, of Tampa, Fla.; Z. B. Head,
Bamesville, Ga., and H. S. Head, of
Waco, Texas.
She was converted early in life
and united with the Baptist church,
in which she lived and served in an
active capacity until her health gave
way near the end of her life. She
was widely known for her hospitali
ty, her home was open to all. She
was zealous for good works, always
ready to help the sick and the needy,
not counting the cost, nor the incon
venience to herself. The wprld will
feel her spirit long after her earthly
life has ended.
We are comforted with the fact
that she was a true child of God, and
that she left many evidences that all
was well with her when the end
came. Our hearts are cheered in the
midst of our sorrow by the fact that
she is with the Father above, in the
Land where there is no death nor
weeping. And we trust in her God
to bring us all together in a grand
reunion one sweet day. The poet
has expressed the sentiment of our
hearts in these beautiful‘lines:
“Why lament the Christian dying,
Why indulge in tears of gloom,
Calmly on the Lord relying,
He can greet the opening tomb.
“We will meet again by and by,
We will meet again by and by,
In the realms of endless glory,
We will meet again by and by."
Her brother,
H. S. HEAD.
