WANT WHITE CONVICTS.
County Commissioners Have Made
Application to Prison Board.
The county commissioners want a
larger road force, and have made ap
plication to the prison commission
for fifteen white convicts to be used
in cultivating the farm and as a patch
I(-re\v on the road.
l The county now has its full quota
of state convicts, 19 in number, but
there are many counties that do not
want white convicts, and they are
divided out among the counties that
' want them,
| It is thought there will be but lit
tle trouble in supplying the Terrell
commissioners with a white squad
of road workers.

Coughs and Consumption.
Coughs and colds, when neglected,
always lead to serious trouble of the
lungs. The wisest thing to do when
you have a cold that troubles you is
to get a bottle of Dr. King’s New Dis
covery. You will get relief from the
first dose, and finally the cough will
disappear. O. H. Brown of Musca
dine, Ala., writes: “My wife was
down in bed with an obstinate cough,
and I honestly believe had it not been
for Dr. King’s New Discovery she
i would not be living today.” Known
for forty-three years as the best rem
edy for coughs and colds. Price
50 cents and $l.OO. Recommended
by Dawson Drug Co.
Officers Make Reports.
Complying with the new law that
requires all officials who receive com
pensation in fees to file quarterly re
ports showing the monthly incomes
of their respectve offices the county
officials ~of Terrell who come under
the provisions of the act are prepar
ing and forwarding their first reports
to the office of the controller general
in Atlanta. The ordinary, clerk of
i court, sheriff and every other county
i official who collects fees are required
‘to make these reports.

WHEN YOU LOOK IN YOUR MIRROR
Are you ashamed of your gla.sses?
Would you wear a suit or dress
which fit no better than the average
person’s glasses?
It is a mistake that you must look
like a monkey just because you need
to wear glasses.
The average person looks better in
glasses if they are properly fitted
than without them.
You never see a patient fitted at
Adams' Optical Department without
the frames are fitted as carefully as
the lens, and when one style frame
does not look well we get another
or have the frame made to order.
It must be right.
