Frame House That Was One of E
First Ever Erected Here. ;
The old one-room frame building !
that stood on Jefferson street, at the |
north end of the Dean building, has!
been torn down through the efforts |
of the ladies who were in charge ofi
clean-up day in Dawson. ‘
'Mr.. J. R. Mercer, to whom lhez
old building belonged, had received |
permission from the city authorities |
to repair it, and was having the lum-I
ber placed to begin the work whent
he was approached by the ('hairman!
of the clean-up day committee and|
asked that he give them the build
ing or tear it down. Mr. Mercer read
ily consented, and instead of repair- |
ing it had it torn down. f
This was an old landmark, being |
one of the first buildings ever erect-i"
ed in Dawson. It had become dilapi- !
dated and unsightly, and Mr., Mercer
and the ladies are both to-be (*on-’

SELLS 1,200 POUNDS MEAT,
Terrell County Farmer Disposes of
Big Quantity of Bacon and Hams.
Mr. J. D. Chambless, of near
Graves Station, is one Terrell county
farmer who has but little fear of the
boll weevil and loses no time or sleep
worrying over the tariff, income tax
and other matters that pester the
politicians.
In other words, Mr., Chambless is
not only living at home, but he is
making enough to spare some to the
less fortunate ones. A few days ago
he sold 989 pounds of choice well
cured side meat and 300 pounds of
juicy hamsg in Dawson. The side meat
and 200 pounds of hams were bought
by the Southern Grocery Co., 12%%
cents per pound being paid for the
former and 16 cents for the latter.
The remainder of the hams were sold
to different people, and Mr. Cham
bless’ load of meat brought him
about $l3O.
Several other farmers have sold
hams in Dawson regently at the re
tail price of 20 cents#a pound.

FAGGED-OUT” WOMEN
Will Find a Helpful Suggestion
In This Letter.
Overworked, run-down, “fagged
out” women who feel as though they
could hardly drc3 about, should profit
by Miss Richter’s experience. She
says:- “Last winter 1 was completely
run down and felt fagged out all the
time, was nervous and had indiges
tion.
“One of my friends advised me to
take Vinol, and it has done me great
good. The tired, worn-out feeling is
all gone, and I am strong, vigorous
and well. The stomach trouble soon
disappeared and now [ eat heartily
and have perfect digestion. I wish
every tired, weak, nervous woman
could have Vinol, for I never spent
any money in my life that did me so
inuch good as that I spent for Vinol.”
Marie Richter, Detroit, Mich.
Thousands of women and men
who were formerly weak and sickly
owe their present rugged heaith to
the wonderful strength-creating effects
of Vinol. We guarantee Vinol to build
you up and make you strong. If
it does not, we give back your money,
