A FAMILY
MEDICINE
In Her Mother’s Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black-
Draught. Relief From. Head
ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.
Ringgold, Ga.'— Mrs. Chas. Gaston,
Of this place, writes: “I am a user
of Thedford’s Black-Draught; in fact,
it was one of our family medicines.
Also in my mother’s home, when I
was a child. When any of us child
ren complained of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave us
a dose of Black-Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Coring, we would have malaria and
chills, or troubles of this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg
ular until the liver acted well, and
we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without it,
for it certainly has saved us lots of
doctor bills. Just a dose of Black-
Draught when not so well saves a
lot of days in bed.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
Ir. use for many years in the treat
ment of stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which it
aow enjoys Is proof of Its merit
If your liver is not doing Its duty,
you will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms as headache, bilious
ness, constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result.
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
found a valuable remedy for these
troubles. It Is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
Tegulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels of
Impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed*
ford’s, the original and genuine. £79

Drainage In Clayton.
General Washington, just after
retiring from the presidency, wrote
that one of the most attractive
features of his new life was that
he might have opportunities to
make improvements upon the
earth in the capacity of a Virginia
farmer. I think of the phrase
General Washington used very
often when he spoke of making
improvements on the earth when
I cross Camp Creek on my daily
journeyings and look at the ver
dant stretch of fertile valley.
When J first knew Camp Creek
it was a foul, pestilential tag alder
swamp from Cates to the river,
breeding miasma and moccasins
from one end of its loathsome
length to the other, and it crawled
through our lovely country like a
blotch, a cancer, a weeping eczema
on the fair face of Clayton county,
a sore to the sight and stench to
the smell.
A wonderful transformation has
taken place. Camp Creek is no
longer a wide spread and stag
nant series of shallow pools, with
out banks and running far wide,
but it is a clear, swift, running
stream, confined by high banks
and running like a mountain
branch down to the river. In the
acres on each side, the tag alders,
swamp grass and sweet gums are
gone and the noble soil, redeemed
from its former degradation is
nurturing bread and stretches of
corn.
What an improvemet wrought
upon the earth! If you have any
doubts about drainage, come and
see!

HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH GEORGIA.
One of our Riverdale citizens
who owns many acres on either
side of this creek said that he
would hardly consider an ofter of
one thousand dollars an acre for
this reclaimed land, which, a year
ago, was worthless and worse than
worthless, for it was a malaria
breeder.
I hail the men who planned and
executed this splendid project as
patriots in a very fine and true
sense.
If a man does a good work who
causes two blades of grass to
grow where one grew before,
how much more praiseworthy is
the man who causes acres of black
fertile land to abound, where there
was naught but bog and moral!
before.
Our Georgia swamp land is mar
velously fertile and well may it be
since the top soil of the hills has
been washed down on them. As
it is now in so many parts of
Georgia, these tag alder swamps
are good for nothing, not even
holding the earth together suffici
ently, but they are liabilities to
any community. In them are bred
countless numbers of anoirheles
mosquitoes, who are the one guil
ty agent in spreading malaria.
Malaria and a tag alder swamp
are as inseparable as a dead mule
and maggots.
Malaria has never been driven
from a community where swamps
were left undrained.
Often, it is said, we have no ma
laria in Clayton county. “Tell that
to the marines.” We do have
malaria, though we ought not to
have it.
I venture this assertion and am
ready for a challenge as to proof.
There is no inhabited section,
soutli of the Blue Ridge moun
tains, where there is a swamp of
three miles long, in which malaria
may not be found, and I will leave
the proof to the bacteriologist of
the State Board of Health. I have
known malaria under the comb of
the Blue Ridge, in Michigan and
Ohio. I have found it here, though
never very far from a swamp. It
is a fine, a splendid thing to drain
these swamps.
Again, I hail these drainage
agents as first class patriots, doing
a good work on the earth, building
better than they knew, for these
reclaimed acres an enduring mon
ument to their labors and future
generations shall call them blessed.
But, Mr. Editor, the point I wish
to make is that the improved
health of any section is well worth
the cost of any drainage project,
even though there were no other
benefits. The experience of all
communities in every part of Geor
gia is unanimous along these
points.
If there is a conscientious ob
jeclor in Clayton county to the
drainage project, I wouid resoect
fully suggest to him that the only
way to settle this matter rightlv
and conscientiously is to come
over and see for himself. —Dr. M.
