There are times when every
person needs an old fashioned
physic. Indigestion, biliousness,
bad breath, bloating gas, consti
pation or other condition arising
from a mass of undigested food
in the stomach needs immediate
attention. Foley Cathartic Tab

Price Fixing Postponed.
Atlanta, Sept. 30. Following
one of the most important meet
ings, in Washington, of the Cotton
States Official Advisory Marketing
Board, attended by more than 100
Southern Senators and Congress
men, Commissioner of Agriculture
J. J. Brown, President of the
board, brings, back the good news
that there will be no arbitrary
price fixed on this year’s cotton
crop.
Commissioner Brown emphatic
ally expresses this opinion, and it
is further confirmed by telegrams
from Washington from Director
L. B. Jackson of the state bureau
of markels, who remained to at
tend later conferences with gov
ernment officials.
Commissioner Brown said:
“We made it clear to the gov
ernment cotton committee, 1 am
sure, that it would be unfair to
the south to fix a price for cotton
in the midst of the harvesting sea
son ; and especially when not over
20 per cent of the crop will be
needed for war purposes. 1 am
convinced that no action will be
taken, looking to price fixing, as
to the present crop, and I believe
such action is now indefinitely
postponed.
“In order that cotton prices may
adjust themselves at proper level
under the law of supply and de
mand, I earnestly suggest that
farmers gin their cotton gradually
and market it slowly and cauti
ously, and that all cotton not for
market be held in the seed. This
will prevent congestion at the oil
mills, and avoid damage to seed
through heating.
“Tnis section will have the effect
of restoring normal conditions,
both at the mills and in the cotton
market. With the price of seed
fixed at s7l, there is no danger of
a decline.”
Trox Bankston Wears
Flowers and a Smile.
Trox Bankston and Volney Wil
liams have gone back to their scis
sors and paste-pots. Good fel
lows, both of ’em, but “Farmer
Jim” has played the game before.
Volney hasn’t issued a statement
yet, but Trox was in Atlanta yes
terday morning wearing a red car
nation and plenty of smiles. He
pushed the following copy out of
a typewriter in a jiffy, and it has
the true Bankston ring:
“It seems that I was mistaken
about the name of the man who
would succeed Judge Hillyer for
railroad commissioner, but I was
not in error about the one who
wanted to. The scarcity of votes
throughout the state brought
about my defeat, but I am not go
ing to wear any mourning over
the result; red carnations are
more becoming to my complexion
and indicative of my feelings. For
the thousands of votes which I
received throughout Geoagia, I
am highly appreciative; and for
those who voted against me 1
shall never entertain anything but
the kindest feelings. I love all
Georgians, especially the ladies;
and I am subject to command at
any and all times. The splendid
tribute Georgians paid in loyalty
to President Wilson softens the
shadowy clouds of defeat, and,
with the exception of today, reg
istration day, it was one of the
.greatest days in the history of this
grand old state.” —Atlanta Consti

local disease, greatly influenced by con

Why Take Calomal?
Dr. Thacher’s Liver & Blood Syrup
will do all that calomel will do and
without the “after effects.”
Years ago, when people were bilious,
when the liver got lazy and failed to do
it* work or the stomach was out of
condition, calomel w r as the standby.
By and by the users of calomel found
that the “after effects” of taking the
drug were as bad and more often worse
than the ailment for which it was
t&kcn*
Dr. Thacher, in seeking a medicine
to take the place of calomel —one that
would do all the good that calomel
would do, and yet leave none of its evil
effects perfected Dr. Thacher’s Liver &
Blood Syrup. This was in 1852, and
each year since has added to the confi
dence of those who have used it.
Miss Susie Brewer, of Chattanooga,
Tenn., tried calomel. She was suffer
ing with a very serious cold and grippe
and had no appetite whatever. After
the calomel failed she tried Dr. Thach
er’s Liver & Blood Syrup. She felt
better after taking three doses and she
soon got entirely well. “I think Dr.
Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup is a
wonderful medicine,” she said, “and I
am very thankful I tried it.”
For nearly three quarters of a century
this sterling preparation has been an
“old stand-by” in thousands of homes
in treating rheumatism, dyspepsia, in
digestion and other stomach and liver
complaints. It Is a powerful tonic and
blood purifier and can be used with
the utmost confidence. '

Took Out Dreadful Soreness.
When the kidneys are weaken
ed or overworked so that they
fail to filter and throw all impuri
ties out of the blood, the poison
remains in the system and back
ache, soreness, lameness and rheu
matic pains are likely to develop.
Mrs. David Henry, 65 S. Lincoln
Ave.,~Washington, N. J., writes:
"Foley Kidney Pills are doing me
much good, both my kidneys and
the rheumatism. They took all
the dreadful soreness out of my
limbs. The McDonough Drug Co.
