Yon Can't Eat Meat
100 Miles Away
Preparing meat is only a part
of Swift & Company’s usefulness.
The finest meat in the world
wouldn’t do you any good one
hundred miles away from your
table.
Swift & Company efficiency has made
it possible to place complete lines of
products in the smallest and most remote
communities.
To be sure the work is done well
Swift & Company, through its branch
houses and car routes, brings the meat to
the retail dealer for you.
Swift & Company lays out car routes
covering towns—big, little, medium size
—which are not served by a Swift
branch house.
\
Salesmen find out in advance what is
wanted by the dealers in every town.
They are followed by refrigerator cars
loaded with retailers’ orders, which are
delivered at each town —fresh, clean, and
sweet —once or twice each week.
Swift & Company operates a large
number of car routes like this, from four
teen distributing plants.
This is a necessary and natural part
of the packers’ usefulness. It fits into
the industry in an orderly, effective way.
It makes better meat cheaper from one
end of the land to the other.

HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH, GEORGIA
In Honor of Mr. and
Mrs. W. A. Gardner.
Mr. William Gardner was born
May 26, 1832, in o’d Henry county.
He was a youijlg man when the
war between the States began,
but he was old enough to go, and
fought in some o the worst bat
tles. He was wounded several
times and knew what it meant to
be a soldier.
Just after the war he married
Miss Martha Fo'd, who was six
years younger. They began life
together when t ines were hard
and things to eat were not so
plentiful. It was not any trouble
to get them to observe vvheatless,
meatless and sugarless days.
To this couple were born eight
children, four bo\s and four girls.
All are living except Mrs. Henri
etta Gardner Martin, who has
been gone to heaven about four
teen months.
1 believe this is one of the larg
est families in the county. All the
children are married and the old
est ones have large families. There
are fifty-one grand-children, four
teen of them have married and
there are twenty-one great grand
children.
The oldest son has two daught
ers who have twins, the oldest a
girl and a boy four months old
and the youngest, two boys two
months old.
The family has now reached one
hundred in number. So you are
not surpris'd at me saying it is
one of the largest in the county.
Mrs. Gardner is in her seven
tieth year and is a happy Christian.
They both attend preaching, Sun
day school and prayer meeting
regularly.
They are members of Mount
Vernon Baptist ceurch and attend
all the general meetings and asso
ciations it is possible for them to
attend. 0. T. T.

A Mother Before
The Draft Board.
We passed through a Solomon
like moment. As for instance,
that occasion when we laid aside
the book of rules and called in a
lovely, gray old mother to decide
for herself which of her two sons
should go and which should stay.
It was a cruel moment. She look
ed from one to the other and back
again. Then, after a long, painful
silence, she said, in a low tone, as
if the words tore her heart a bit
as they came —
“I love them both —so take them
both. I will get along somehow.”
She held her head very high
and smiled proudly through her
tears as she went out.—From The
Atlantic.

TIIE strong find vigorous man or
woman is envied by less fortunate
humanity afiiicted with aches, pains,
infirmities and ailments. The sufferer
says to himself, “If I could only be
well, how happy I would be,’’ for health
is more essential to the joy of living
than is wealth.
The kidneys almost literally wash the
blood and keep it clean and free from
impurities. When the kidneys are out of
order, they fail to filter out this waste and pois
onous matter. It remains in the system to cause
backache, rheumatic pains, sore muscles and
stiff joints.
J^ygdiieygis
help the system eliminate this poisonous waste.
| They soothe, strengthen and heal sore, weak
and diseased kidneys and bladder. When the
kidneys are working properly, appetite returns,
refreshing sleep is possible, and health and
strength come again.

writes: “1 nm very much pleased with Foley
Kidney Pills. I am working in a coal yard and
have been very much troubled with my bncu.
I have taken several doses of Foley Kidney Pills
and they have already helped me.”

Men Feel Tired, Too.
While much is said about tired
women it must be remembered
that men also pay the penalty of
overwork. When the kidneys are
weak, inactive or sluggish, when
one feels tired out and miserable,
lacks energy and ambition. Foley
Kidney Pills are tonic and strength
ening. Wm. H. Clark, Spring
field, Ohio, writes: “1 found no
relief from kidney trouble until I
discovered Foley Kidney Pills.
Now I am in A 1 shape.” They
