' ‘‘The "blood is life.” Science has
r*ver gone beyond that simple state
ment of script’ire. But it has illum;-
mted that statement and given it a
meaning ever broadening with the in
creasing breadth of knowledge. When
the blood is “bad" or impure it is
not alone the body which suffers from
> disease. The brain is also clouded,
vtfoe mind and judgment aTe affected,
.and many an evil deed or impure
thought may be directly traced to
the impurity of the blood. No one
can be well balanced in mind and
/body whose blood is impure. No
oe can have a wholesome and pure
life unless the blood is pure. Foul
‘blood can be made pure by the use

in Eatonton, Ga., where he has been

young man whose disposition was to
make friends and a a husband he
was always considerate and affection
ate. When he died Mrs. Anderson,
his wile, was sick in Barnesville, hav
ing come over from Eatonton only a
few days before, and his death was
quite a blow to her. The funeral
occurred tin Eatonton. The sympa
thy of the entire community is ex

Baldwin Teachers In Bartlesville.
The following is taken from the
Milledgeville Union Recorder this
week:
We the Baldwin county teachers,
went up to Barnesville Monday morn
ing, July 3rd, in charge of the Coun
ty School Commissioner, R. N.
to attend the Chautauqua and Teach
er’s Institute, which was held in that
town during the week.
Prjf. Pound of Gordon Institute
met the Teachers at the depot with a
cordial welcome, and had them taken
to the Veal House where he had se
cured homes for them.
We were fortunate to be so comfort
ably located, for Mrs. Veal certainly
knows how to care for school folks.
The directors of the Chautauqua
had arranged a magnificent program,
a veritible feast, and for those of us
who have small opportunities of hear
ing such things, it was indeed a treat.
Dr. Payne of the Peabody Normal
and other experts were with us in the
Institute work, giving words of coun
sel and encouragement to help us for
ward in our work.
Barnesville is a town of pretty
homes and loyal people. I.oyal to
their school, loyal to the president
of their school and loyal to one an
other.
The Baldwin county teachers feel
deeply indebted to our commissioner,
Mr. Lamar, for his many acts of kind
ness and courtesy shown us during
our stay in Barnesville.

IS IT RIGHT
KOK AN EDITOR TO RECOMMEND PAT
ENT MEDICINES?
Erotu Sylvan Valley News, Brevml, N. i'-
ll may be a question whether the
editor ot a newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any’ ot the va
rious proprietary medicines which
flood the market, yet as a preventive
of suffering we feel it our duty to say
a good word for ' Chamberlrin s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We
have known and used this medicine
in our family for twenty years and
have always found it reliable. In
many cases a dose of this remedy
would save hours of suffering while a
physician is awaited. We do not be
lieve in depending implicitly on any
medicine for a cure, but we do believe
that if a bottle of Chamberlain’s Diar
rhoea Remedy were kept on hand and
administered at the inception ot an
attack much suffering might be avoid
ed and in many cases the presence ot
a physician would not be required.
At least this has been our experience
during the past twenty years. For

ft TRIBUTE-
Miss Ada Kitchings, daughter of
John A. and L. A. Kitchings# died
July 6th. 1899, aged eighteen years.
She was sick but a short time, and
while the fever raged and wasted her
body she displayed great patience
and resignation. This lovely young
lady,was indeed the joy of the home,
devoted to her parents, aftectionate
to her brothers and sisters, and kind
to all her acquaintances.
In childhood's early dawn she ac
cepted her Savior, was baptised into
j the fellowship of Milner Baptist
church, and beautifully adorned the
profession of godliness. The testi
mony she gave of her interest in re
ligion was full and constant, and her
tender loving advice to her little
brother just before her departure will
linger in his heart as a sweet treasure
to life’s departing day.
A whole neighborhood gathered in
the sad home to mingle their tears
and attest their sympathy with the
sorrowing family. The text used by
the writer all felt to be truly appro
priate for the dear one whose spirit
had just gone to the “Home Beyond. - ’
It was, “Blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord from henceforth. Yea,
saith the Spirit, that they may rest
from their labors; and their works do
follow them.”
The taking out of the first link in
the family chain on earth has caused
sorrow; but as the links removed here
are forever united in Heaven, joy
unspeakable will come to all the re
deemed as they stand together where
parting is no more.
It is the sincere prayer of the writ
er that God may bestow his grace
to comfort all the bereaved and final
ly bring all together into that rest
which remains for the people of God.

THE YARN IS 25 PER CENT
STRONGER.
Test of the Roiiudlap Cotton Bale in
New England Mills.
Mr. William C. Lovering, a leading
New England Cotton manufacturer
says:
The Roundlap bale of the Ameri
can Cotton Company continues to
win favor with the manufacturers ot
New England as well as with the spin
ners of Europe. You can readily un
derstand why this should be so, in
view of the saving, and of the fact
after making a very thorough investi
gation in one of my mills last summer
I found that the average breaking
strain of yarn spun from this bale is
about 26 per cent, greater than the
strength of the yarn spun from the old
bale.”
Mrs. Anderson Better.
Mrs. W\ C. Anderson who was
taken sick immediately after her ar
rival here from Eatonton about three
weeks ago, is improving. She has
been at the home of Mr. W. M.
Howard and has had every possible
attention She will probably be up
soon.

Mr. E. F. Martin Dead.
The people of Barnesville and of
Pike county learned with great regret
of the death of Mr. E. F. Martin
which occurred last week at his home
near Milner. He was one of the
wealthiest citizens of Middle Georgia
and he was a man who held the con
fidence and good will of the people
who knew him. He was a man of
very quiet disposition and attended
strictly to his own business and was
therefore quite successful in his affairs.
He had many warm friends who
mourn his death, and Pike county has
lost one of its most valuable and hon
ored citizens.
Still Sick.
The people of Barnesville regret
the continued illness of Col. S. N.
Woodward, who has been confined to
his room at Magnolia Inn for the past
two weeks with fever. He has been
quite sick part of the time. We hope
that he may be soon restored to
health again.
