V ?' Billy, Junior. At ten o’clock Sunday morning he was chubby and bright-eyed and as mischievous a three-year older as ever sucked a thumb — with his three score and ten lying out before him. In less time than it takes to read this, he was changed into a small morsel of bruised flesh and broken bones; both fat little legs mashed to bits and the curly little head fractured. In ten short seconds he was transformed from a happy, care free little tadkin, bubbling over with mirth at his boyish pranks, into a wrecked body, writhing in the pain of two broken legs and a shattered skull; his bright blue eyes glazed with the approach of death; his soft, rosy skin assuming first an ashen hue, then a pur plish tinge, as death crept on. And, finally, th ' silver cord was loosed and little Billy was no more. The little boy we loved so well — whom we had danced upon our knee hundreds of times; the youngster who was never happier than when he jammed our hat down over his nose and strutted about with all thg pomp of a Napoleon—. one, sacrificed on the altar of speed ! Was the auto driver to blame ? Oh, no! The driver is never to blame —just another of those “un avoidable” accidents. No doubt he was in a great hurry to get to his office to the morning paper—he couldn’t be expected to see such a little thing as a three year-old boy. Both driver and car are still here. It didn’t hurt the car a bit, fortunately; of course a little of Billy’s blood got on the wheel, but don’t judge Billy too harshly—we are confident he couldn’t help it. —The Trestle Board. She Wants to Help Others. Mrs. A. G. Wells, R. F. D. Rocky Mount, N. C., writes: “I cannot praise Foley Kidney Pills enough for the wonderful benefits I have derived from their use. Please publish this statement as I want the people everywhere to know of them.” Lame back, sore muscles, puffiness under eyes, and an “always tired” feeling are indi cations that the kidneys and blad der are not working properly. Foley Kidney Pills strengthen weak, disordered kidneys and! bladder. McDonough Drug Co. Petition to Dissolve. GEORGIA —Henry County. To tho Superim Court of said County.

One reason why so many girls and boys, men and women, too, are uninteresting, is because they try so hard to be like somebody else rather than to be content to remain himself or herself in life. In nature you don’t see an oak posing as a willow, or a black duck as a yellow leg, or a lilac as a peony, or a dog as a cat. Be natural and you’ll be alright. An undertaker’s salesroom might appropriately be termed a boxoffice. Your Attention, Please.

How often we have been disgusted to see that the girls are made to help until the housework while the boys are allowed to play checkers, or sit at the fire toasting their toes.

When it is an effort to drag one foot after the other, when you are always tired and 6ecm lacking in strength and endurance, when aches and pains rack the body, it is well to look for symptoms of kidney trouble.
