Fine Resort. Mr, Editor: —I will, by you per mission, give your readers of The Weekly a few dots from the fa mous Borden-Wheeler Spring, wh'ch’s located on the Seaboard Railroad 75 miles from Atlanta. On December Ist I was stricken down with a most violent attack of rheumatism in Atlanta. For nearly three months I lay at my brother’s home in McDonough and could hardly move hand or foot, but by the skillful treatment of Dr. R. L. Tye, 1 was so I couid walk a little on crutches by March 15. Soon after this I came to At lanta and the rheumatism settled in my knees and feet, and I could not even walk on crutches. I called in two physicians and they could not help me, and they sent me to Borden-Wheeler Spring. In fifteen days after I came here I laid aside my crutches and I am now going with one stick, and I can walk around pretty well. I am drinking"two gallons of water each day, and 1 expect by July Ist or sooner to be a well man in ev ery particular. Many wonderful cures of rheu matism has been made here, also with many other complaints. Peo ple have come here on crutches with rheumatism and left in three weeks perfectly well. It is not an unusual thing to meet people who will water saved my life. The hotel is built on a beautiful, natural mound, and makes a mag nificent sight in a great chain of mountains that surround it on ev ery side. The hotel is modern and up-to-date in every particu lar. These springs are possibly the most popular summer resort in the South. People come here from many States, and by com bining the curative powers of this water with the social features and the indescribable scenery that surrounds the place, makes it an ideal place for the poor and the rich. Many comfortable cottages dot the hill around the springs where many come and bring their fami lies, spend the summr r and go to their respective homes when the autumn leaves begin to fall, feel ing that life was worth the living. I could say many things that would be of interest, but will close by saying that in writing this ar ticle that I am actuated by a feel ing of brotherly sympathy that some one who has suffered as I have, may see what Borden- Wheeler Spring has done and what it will do for those who come. With a heart full of love to every citizen of Henry county, 1 am truly. J. T. OGLESBY. P. S. There are about sixty people at the hotel already, when the season is not supposed to open until June Ist. Mr. Frank Grant of McDonough arrived yesterday and is well pleased with the water and all the surroundings. J. T. Tells What She Thinks. Anna Hawn, Cedar Grove, Mo., writes: “We think Foley Cathar tic Tablets are the best liver pill we ever got hold of, as they do not nauseate or gripe, but act freely on the liver. Any one in need of a liver pill, if he once tries them, would not be without them.” Recommended for indi gestion, constipation, bloating, sour stomach, gas on the stomach, bad breath or other condition caused by clogged or irregular bowels. Stout persons like the light, easy, buoyant feeling they give. The McDonough Drug Co. Don’t use a gallon of words to express a teaspoonful of thought. The sunshine of Virginia is in them! / A jfinfp i / f/0 | A woman in Seattle, living at the age of 104 years, says her long life is due to the fact that she lias always been able to con trol her temper. We know folks who would rather die than give up an opportunity to show their mean disposition. —Ex. “Cured” Mrs. Jay McGee, of Steph enville, Texas, writes: ' For nine (9) years, I suffered with womanly trouble. I had ter rible headaches, and pains in my back, etc. It seemed as if I would die, I suffered so. At last, 1 decided to try Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and it helped me right away. The full treatment not only helped me, but it cured me.” TAKE Cardui Tiie Woman's Tonic Cardui helps women in time of greatest need, because it contains ingredients w hich act specifically, yet gently, on the weakened womanly organs. So, if you feel discouraged, blue, out-of-sorts unable to do your household work, on account of your condition, stop worrying and give Cardui a trial. It has helped thousands of women —why not you ? Try Cardui. E-71 AND you know well enough what that means, Zjl if you’ve ever smoked a Virginia cigarette. “The tobacco man's tobacco” is what Virginia is called. One reason is because Virginia gives to a cigarette the one quality no other tobacco can give— “character’ 7—that zest and life that makes a cigarette satisfying. Sun-goldened, lively, mellow Virginia-that’s Piedmonts! ALL Virginia! There’s “character” aplenty in Piedmonts. Have you been wondering why your cigarette is shy of taste ?
