McDonough, Ga., July 28, 1916 Franklin’s Idea of Death. From a letter at time of his brother’s death in May, 1790: “Dear Child: I condole with you. We have lost a most dear and valued relation, but it is the will of God and nature that these mortal bodies be laid aside when the soul is to enter into real life. Tis rather an embryo state, a preoaration for living; a man is not completely born until he is dead. Why then, should we grieve that a new child is born among the immortals, a new mem ber added to their happy society? We are spirits. That bodies should be lent us while they can afford us pleasure, assist us in ac quiring knowledge or doing good to our fellow creatures is a kind and benevolent act of God. When they become unfit for these pur poses and accord us pain instead of pleasure, instead of an aid be come an incumbrance, and an swer none of the intentions for which they were given, it is equally kind and benevolent that a way is provided by which we may get rid of them. Death is the way. We, ourselves, pru dently choose a partial death. In some cases a mangled, painful limb, which cannot be restored, we willingly cut off. He who plucks out a tooth parts with it freely, since the pain goes with it; and he that quits the whole body parts at once with all pains and possibilities of pains and diseases it was liable to, or capable of making him suffer. Our friend and we are invited abroad on a party of pleasure that is to last forever. 1 iis chair was first ready and he has gone before us. We could not all conveniently start together, and why should you and I be grieved at this, since we are •sure to follow and we know where to find them? Adieu.” The bill for biennial sessions of the Legislature has been passed by the Senate of Georgia. We hope the House will concur in making the measure a law. The fewer sessions of the Legislature we have the better off the State will be. —Thomaston Times. It is now in order for the Gov ernment to revise its estimate of the coming cotton crop and cut it down some two or tluee million. Wilson bids fair to be known in history as the winner of great bloodless victories. For Summer Troubles. Hay fever afflicts thousands and asthma sufferers endure tor ture. Foley’s Honey and Tar gives relief, for it allays inflamma tion and clears the air passages. It eases the terrible, gasping cough and soothes the membranes rasped by constant efforts t-b check irritating disturbances. This wholesome family remeday contains no opiates and a bottle lasts a long time. The McDon ough Drug Co. What Will n Mean? If the propose I railroa 1 str ke now threatened should take place what would it mean? The railroads all over the Uni ted States will be tied up and not a train running, either passenger or freight. Can you conceive the results to our country? No one can travel, no freight will by shipped, com merce veiil be stopped; one hun dred millions of people will suffer and millions of them for bread. Can vou conceive the results? Business will practically close for merchants will be unable to get goods, and thereby you as an individual will suffer. How come all this trouble to be started? The organizations of all railroad laborers have made most unrea sonable demands for wages and time. You ask can this be reconciled? How udien in conferences be tween the leaders of the strikers and the railroad people efforts have been made to get the strik ers to agree to some form of arbi tration between the two parties, but the strikers refuse and repeat the demands “of all and in full of what we demand of you.” They have been asked to submit their claims to the National Com mittee, for arbitration, but they refuse totally. The roads have made overtures after overtures, but the strikers, blinded in their demands, have refused every effort of whatso ever kind of cny manner. Is this just upon the part of the strikers? Do not all business people resort to business methods to settle all differences? Then why should not these .strikers do the same? They will out themselves out of the pale of the law, when they will force millions to suffer for their unreasonable conduct. We are no apologist for either side, but there is justice that should be observed. When any class put themselves outside of the pale of the law, they should not expect protection from that source. Without prejudice we are forced to say that they seek to make the United States an inferno. — Pike County Journal. The Pike County Journal has it down right when it says: “A man raises a bale of cotton, he sells it to the buyer, he sells it to the cotton factor, he sells it to the manufacturer, he makes it into cotton products. He then sells it to the manufaetu: irtg agent, he sells it to the jobber, be sells it to the wholesaler, he sells it to the retailer, he sells it to the original raiser, and he pays all these mid dlemen a profit, and wipes his weeping eyes with a cotton rag and goes to his grave a servar f of all.” His Backache Hone, More men have kidney trouble than are aware of it. Just how serious a backache, sore muscles, aching joints, rheumatism, swol len ankles, and blurring vision may be is sometimes realized only when a man attempts to take out life insurance and is refused on account of kidney trouble. Jo seph G. Wolf, 734 Co. Jackson St., Green Bay, Wis., writ • Fo ley Kidney Pills relieved ir 1 of a severe backache that ha. both ered me for several months.” Any symptom of kidney trouble deserves attention.
