6. General discussion of the play
led by Miss Willie Reynolds.
The full intensity of living is reached
only by the perfectly healthy. Sickness
discounts the capacity for enjoyment,
if his body is all out of order and run
down, lie will not be able to enjoy any
thing, no matter how full of enjoyment
it may be for other people. If lie is
just a little bit out of order, if be “is
not sick, hut doesn’t feel just right” he
will only be able to enjoy things in a
half hearted sort of way. The nearer
be is being to be perfectly well, the
nearer will Ida. capacity for enjoyment
be perfect. If this condition doesn’t
exist, something ought to he done. That
means nine cases in ten the use of Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It
works directly on the digestive organs,
and on the blood and through these 011
every tissue of the body. It makes the
appetite uood, digestion and nutrition
perfect and supplies rich, red blood to
all the tissues, building up solid, health
ful tlesh.

Putting in Healer and Lights.
Work has been commenced in the
Methodist church for putting in a
heater and electric lights. The
heater is one of the latest improved
and no doubt it will be a great con
venience and comfort for the church.
The electric lights will be in two
circles on the ceiling, with an arch
back of the pulpit. This will beau
tifully light the church and give it a
very pretty appearance.
These two improvements will cost
about SSOO and it will greatly im
prove the church and it will be much
appreciated by the congregation.
The Barnesville Methodist church is
one of the strongest churches in Mid
dle Georgia.
THE FARMERS OF PIKE COUNTY
Who bought fertilizers through us
from Southern Phosphate Works, Ma
con, Ga., will find their notes at Bar
nesville Savings Bank for collection.
The Southern Phosphate Works
sold more than half the fertilizers
that were used in this county this
year, and at lower prices than the
same grade of goods could have been
bought elsewhere. Remember when
you buy fertilizers from the factory
through us. you save dealers’ profit.
Therefore, we hope all will meet their
obligations promptly. We hope to
handle Southern Phosphate Works’
goods next season.
