LITTLE GIRL NOW PLAYS LIKE OTHERS Captii 1 T. M. Harrell, Says Tailic Gave His Child Health. “I wouldn’t be do ; ng right not to tell vou what your medicine has done for our little girl,” said Captain T. M. Harrell, of Atlanta, conductor on the Seaboard Air Line for 25 years and one of the most popular men in the service. “She’s 11 years old,” he contin ued, “and has been a little suffer er all her life —weak, puny, nerv ous, no appetite, no control over her kidneys and had headaches almost all the time. “The child never was strong, even from the cradle, and when she got a little older and would try to play with the other children and was too weak to romp and keep up with them, it just didn’t seem right, for she seemed so anxious to be with them and do as they did. It made me mighty sad and brought many a big lump into my throat to see her that way, and somehow 1 never could get used to it. “There was nothing on earth too good for her, and we did eve rything we could think of to try and rid her of the pains an weak ness and make her like other •children; but nothing seemed to -do her any good. “It has always been a great worry to get something for her to eat that would agree with her, and it was a disheartening job, too, for almost everything would give her the heartburn or sour stomach or cause her to wake up in the night with pains. We’d try first one thing after another, and when everything would fail we would feel disheartened and helpless. “ There is nothing quite so op pressive as the feeling that gets liuld of you when a little one of your own flesh and blood is sick and helpless and depending on you, and you can’t find anything on earth to-help them. “I saw in the paper where Tan lac was helping so many women and elderly people with delicate vi tal organs, and who were in weak and run-down conditions, and as I A Card to Owners of Rural Telephone Lines We are anxious to see that all lines owned by other parties and connected with us are kept in such condition as to furnish efficient service. Where the owners of rural lines are responsible for their upkeep, we want to co-operate with them. All lines require a thorough overeauling occa sionally if the best service is to be obtained. We recommend that every line connected with us be overhauled at least once a year, and that at least one experienced telephone man assist in this work. The cost of this work when divided among all the patrons of the line, makes the amount paid by each man small, and this cost will be more than offset by the improved service. If the owners of rural telephone lines in this sec tion are experiencing trouble with their service, we will appreciate their talking the matter over with our Manager or writing us fully We will gladly do what we can toward helping you improve the con dition of your line. , SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE /g||\ ' AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY vJiy? Why His Sorrow. Employed on a big farm down in the country was a party named Jim Brown. Among the duties that fell to the lot of Jim was the working of a pair of mules. As a matter of fact no other man on the place could successfully do it. “Boss,” slowly remarked Jim, approaching his employer one I morning, “1 thought I’d tell ye | that I attended the revival down in the grove last night and got converted.” “Ye don’t mean it!” was the dismayed rejoinder of Uncle Josh. “I’m kind o’ sorry to hear that, Jim.” "Sorry!” exclaimed the sur prised Jim. “I thought yeid just be tickled to death, boss.” “So 1 am, Jim,” responded Uncle Josh. “So lam in a way, but who in the deuce is goin’ to drive that team of mules?” studied over the matter I didn't see why it wouldn’t help children; so I got the child a bottle, for I believed it was the right thing. I just can’t tell you hiw much good it has done her, for she seems like a different child. She’s picking up weight and strength right along, has control over her kidneys and sleeps and eats as well as any youngster I ever saw. “Tanlac has given my child health end happiness, I do believe, and I don’t think there is anything like it in the world. She now plays and romps like the others and is just crazy about her Tanlac. Just now she phoned me from our home in Itigleside to be sure and get her a new bottle. “She goes to school now, is jolly and playful and enjoys life.” Tanlac is sold exclusively in Mc- Donough by the McDonough Drug Co; in Hampton, Ga., by H.

As the miles stream past you note the eager ease with which Saxon “Six” responds to the merest pressure on the accelerator —the quickness with which it answers your guiding touch on the wheel. Then you become conscious of the wonderful smoothness of the ride —of the fluid flexibility of the power flow —of the lack of vibration as the speed increases—of the satisfying firmness with which the car grips the roadbed. Let us give you a ride in Saxon “Six” at $Bl5. JOE J. SMITH, McDonough, Ga ABERDEEN-ANGUS CATTLE The Great Market-toppers of the World Yes, I have them right here in Georgia. Have just shipped a six-mon.ths-old calf that weighed 530 pounds. Any man in need of a bull of the best Breeding —of the very best beef breed to be had — would do well to communicate with me. The An gus will produce more high-class meat to the live weignt than any othe» breed, and sells as high as $1.60 on the Hundred more than the best of any other breed. The grades sell from 25 cents to 50 cents more than any other. It will pay any man who is thinking of going into the cattie business to get all the common cows and heilers he can, and then gei him a pure-bred Angus bull and breed to them. The grades will grow rapidly and develop into a black, hornless, smooth beef. J. O. Rutherford, HAMPTON. GEORGIA Cut This Out—lt Is Worth Money DON’T MISS THIS.
