Judge Roan exchanged courts
this week with Judge Reagan of >he
Flint circuit, and has been holding
court at Forsyth while Judge Rea
gan was here. Judge Reagan has
made a very favorable impression
upon the people here by his able
and impartial administration of jus

form courtesy.—Fairburn Cor. At

Mr. A. G. Harris of Flippen an
announces himself a candidate for
Representative in this issue. Mr.
Harris is one of Henry’s purest and
best citizens, than whom no one
possesses a higher degree of esteem
of his fellow-man. Although prom
inent, it is his first solicitation of
public favor during a residence of
fifty years in the county, and it is
needless to say he will attract a
large following.
The hack horses caused a lively
ripple by slipping off from the de
pot when no one was watching Tues
day night. After vigorous search,
joined in by a number of parties
with lanterns, the hack and horses
were found in front of Judge Tid
well’s residence, where they had
come in contact with a tree. They
had come leisurely along all the
way, passing between the court
house and Huling Co's, and were
standing quietly with no damage
done when found.

tV lien You Have a Cold.
The first action when you have a
cold should be to relieve the lungs.
This is best accomplished by the
free use of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. This Remedy liquefies
the tough mucous and causes its ex
pulsion from the air cells of the
lungs, produces a free expectoration,
a lid opens the secretions. A com
plete cure soon follows. This rem
edy will cure a severe cold in less
time than any other treatment and it
leaves the system in a natural and
healthy condition. It counteracts
any tendency toward pneumonia.

Commissioner’s Election.
An interesting session of the
Board of Education was held last
Saturday, in addition to the routine
business of which was the election
of a County School Commissioner.
Commissioner Daniel, the well
known present incumbent, who has
filled the place so long, was not an
applicant for re-election, and only
Professors O. E. Ham and Lawrence
Duffy stood the examination. They
are two of Henry’s ablest and most
prominent educators, either of
whom would have made an excel'
lent Commissioner, and consequent
ly it was difficult for the Board to
make a choice. Prof. Duffy was
chosen, however. He has been
identified with Henry county’s
schools for the past thirty years,
and is thoroughly qualified for the
work before him.
The term of office is four years,
the Commissioner being required to
give it his entire time and handle
the books prescribed under the new
law. Prof. Duffy is receiving the
congratulations of his friends.

A Cure for Eczema.*
My baby had Eczema so bad that
its head was a solid mass of scabs,
and its hair all came out. I tried
many remedies but none seemed to
do any permanent good until I used
DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. The
Eczema is cured, the scabs are gone
and the little one’s scalp is perfect
ly clean and healthy, and its hair is
growing beautifully again. Icannot
give too much praise to DeWitt’s
Witch Hazel Salve.—Frank Farmer,
Bluff City, Ky. In buying Witch Ha
zel Salve look out for counterfeits.
DeWitt’s is the original and the
only one containing pure Witch Ha
zel. The name E. C. DeWitt & Co.
