n Ancient Foe
Mo health and happiness is Serofula—
as ugly as ever since time immemorial.
It causes bunches in the neck, dis
figures the skin, inflames the mucous
membrane, wastes the muscles, weak
ens the bones, reduces the power of
resistance to disease and the capacity
for recovery, and develops into con
sumption.
«A bunch appeared on the left side of
my neck. It caused great pain, was lanced,
and became a running sore. I went into a
general decline. I was persuaded to try
Hood's Sarsaparilla, and when I had taken
six bottles my neck was healed, and I have
pever had any trouble .of the kind gince.”

- BUSY AT HEADQUARTERS,
Chairman Yeomans Has a Force
of Clerks at Work,
Chairman M. J. Yeomans of the
state democratic executive committee
is hard at work in the interest of the
party, and is leaving nothipg undone
to arouse interest and bring out a full
vote in the election on October sth.
His headquarters in Dawson pre
sent a busy scene, with a force of
stenographers and clerks engaged in
gending out letters and literature urg
ing upon democrats the importance of
a full vote next month.
. Thousands of communications have
already gone to every section of Geor
gia, and from now until vhe election
next month every mail will carry
more,
There is no opposition to any of the
democratic nominees for state oflices,
and Chairioan Yeomans tells The
News that but a few of the county
nominees have contests on their
hands.

BUSINESS HUMMED.
Thousands of Shoppers Were in
Town Saturday.
The stores of Dawson merchants
were scenes ot busy activity Saturday.
The crowds began coming into town as
an early hour ir the morning, and by
three o’clock in the afternoon the
streets and business houses were
thronged with thousands of shoppers
from this and adjoining counties.
As & consequence, vne of the best
day’s business in the history of Dawson
was recorded. In fact, one of the
leading merchants informed The News
that it was a_record-breaking day for
him, his sales being in excess of any
one day since he opened his store &
number of years ago.
What's in a Name.
Everything is in the name when it
comes to Witch Hazel Salve. E. C.
DeWitt & Co., of Chicago, discovered
gome vears ago how to make a salve
from Witch Hazel that is a specific for
piles. For blind, bleeding, itching and
protruding piles, eczema, cuts, burns,
bruises and all skin diseases DeWitt’s
Salve has no equal. This has given
rise to oumerous worthless counter
feits. Ask for DeWitt’s—the genuine.

‘Bold Negro Caused Great Excitement
~ on Fourth Avenue at an Early
Hour of Night. |
A great deal of excitement was caus
ed on Wednesday night by the appear:
ance of & negro at a window at the
home of Mrs. Ella Nelms on Fourth
avenue. His discovery and subsequent
actions were responsible for the
frightened lady giving vent to several
screams, which quickly brought to her
rescue & number of neighbor’s, who
instituted immediate search for the
black rascal who. was responsibie for
the severe fright.
A few minutes past ten o’clock Mrs..
Nelms walked out on the back porch
of her residence for the purpose of
closing the blinds to the dinning room
window when she was startled to die
cover through some lattice work that
partly enclosed the porch a negro man
stealthily creeping toward the window
of a bedroom. When addressed by
Mrs. Nelms, with a demand for an ex
planation of his presence there the
negro sprang through an open space at
her, and it was theno that her screams
aroused neighbors and caused the in
truder to precipitately flee and disap
pear ia the darkness.
An effort was made to secure dogs
with which to track the negro, but
they could not be obtained and the
search bad to be abandoned,
Owing to the darkness, Mrs. Nelms
did not recognize the intruder, but &
certain negro is suspected and further
developments may cause his arrest.

DEATH OF A CHILD.
Little lsaac Lewis Joined the
Angel Band Sunday Morning.
lsaac Hay Lewis, the two-year-old
child of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Lewis,
died early Sunday morning after a
lingering illness of several weexs,
during which time all that loving care
and medical attention could do was
wiven without restoring the health of
the little one.
" The body was laid to rest in Cedar
Hill cemetery Monday morning, the
simple and impressive ceremony being
conducted by Rev. O. F. Cook, assist
ed by Rev. J. W. Quarterman.
To the bereaved parents the sym
pathy of many friends is extended in
their hour of grief.
What is Lite?
In the last analysis nobedy knows,
but we do kmow that it is under strict
law. Abuse that law even slightly and
pain results. Irregular living means
derangement of the organs, resultiog

troubles. Dr. King’s New Life Pills
quickly re-adjusts this. It’s gentle,
