WTH THE GEORGIA PRESS
ASSOCIATION
Boarding the S. A. L. Vestibule
on July 20, wc reached Atlanta where
we enjoyed the courtesies of nur old
friend Joe Needham and wife until
H:4O Pf M. when we met at the
Terminal Station our good friends,
Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Ayers and other
members of the Press party and se
curing berths became guests of the
jjf. B. & A. railroad to Douglas,
Georgia, in Coffee County; leaving
our Pulman at seven o’clock and
breakfasting with Douglas and Coffee
county folks at the New Douglas
Hotel, after a few moments rest
autos were in waiting where we be
gan a pleasant journey over Coffee
County, viewing her huge tobacco
warehouses and manufacturing in
ter® uta. ....
Coffee will grow and sell two mil
lion dollars worth of tobacco this
year, the majority of which is made
into cigarettes, In the meantime
Coffee Counly is mindful of her
other farming and manufacturing
interests. Her progressive citizenry,
with her magnificent and productive
lands are “coming back” rapidly anil
invite all good citizens to join them
in way upward. They are utilizing
every available method in economy
and right living, even grinding up
old stumps and squeezing turpentine
and oil from them. This only gives
you a slight idea at to the thrift
practiced in Coffee.
At noon we were sewed chicken
polo and barbecued chicken at the
Country Club of Dougins. Broxton is
another town of wide awake thrift
in farming, large turpentine distil
lery and cucumbers. After our lunch
baggage beiHg checked over A. B.

with 20,000 happy souls.
They entertained us royally during
our stay, leaving nothing undone f r

the neighboring town of Blackshear

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, an they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous llninr of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
Inflamed you have a rumbling somd or im
perfect hearing, and when It Is entirely
closed, Deafneuc Is the result. Unless the
'nfiarnmutlon can be reduced and this tube
restored to Its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused bv catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood an the mucous surfaces of the
system.
Wc will Rive One Hundred Dollars for
sny case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Medicine. Cir

it seems to me the has
come for “viewin’ with alarm*’
when we spend more on elec
tion* thon it takes to bay a
farm. They’ve banished old
John Barleycorn, an’ drrv the
dope away, but the campaign
contribution crook is cn the job
to stay.
It ain’t no use to grumble at
the way elections gofn, when we
practise rank dishonesty and
praise it, mercy knows! Thsafe
campaign contributions sorter
makes a voter feel that we'd
pass a law to atop 'em, if we
didn’t love to steal!
I reckon ideas differ on the
prevalence of crimb, —but I’ll
eay she’s epidemic jest about
election time. . . . Of course, the
Press exposes—an’ the smelltn*
squad probes in,— but it’s mighty
nigh impossible fer honest men
to win!
The campaign contribution is
the power behind the throne, but
the feller it is jipcnfc on is the
man lo let alone: if political
promoters could be landed in
the. pen, we might elect a ticket
that’s composed of worthy men!
