much but that crowd would put the
Georgia Legislators to shame. The way
thev discussed and settled great questions
Cairo had as w T ell hush about that new
county for the way that crowd o f road
hands stood two to one against them and
judging from what I could hear, Roose
velt will have a larger vote in old Thom
as than did William four years ago. I
see that the editors of the Georgia advo
cate towns should own their water works
and electric light plant; thats right it’s
what I call populist doctrine, pure and
simple.

Only Did His Duty as He Saw it.
4 4 I deem it my duty to add a
word of praise for Chamberlain’s
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy,” says J. Wiley Park, the well
known merchant and post muster
at Wiley, Kv. I have been sell
ing it for three or four years, and
it gives complete satisfaction.
Several of my customers tell me
they would not be without it for
anything. Very often, to my
knowledge, a single dose has cur
ed a severe attack of diarrhoea,
and I positively know that it will
cure'the flux (disentery). You
are at liberty to use this testi
monial as you please. • * Sold by
