tivity of the entire reproductive system.”
He continues "in Itelonias we have a medica
ment which more fully answers the above
purposes tint it any other drug with which 1 «m

culiar to women it is seldom that a case is
seen which does not present some indication
for this remedial agent.” I)r. 1'yfe further
says: "The following are among the leading
indications for lielonias (Unicorn root). Pain
or,.aching in the back, with*leucorrhcra ;
atonic (weak) condition^ of the reproductive

A Horne
For Harriett.
By FRANK H. WILLIAMS.
Copyrighted, HOD, by Associated
Literary Press.
=0
Harriett was u peculiar name for a
cut; but, then, Harriett was a peculiar
cat. Roger Webster surveyed her
quizzically as she lay in the sun on the
boarding house steps.
“Any feline but Harriett,” be de
clared, “would at least feel mildly per
turbed at tlio prospect of losing a home
and a mistress.”
“You’d think so, wouldn’t you?” an
swered Bessie Roberts. Bessie was
very pretty and wholly charming, but
at the present time a little frown of
anxiety wrinkled her forehead.
“I simply don't know what to do
about it,” she continued. “The land
lady says that I’ve got to got rid of
Harriett, and 1 can’t find any other
place so convenient to my work where
I can live. I suppose—I suppose,” she
added wistfully, “that I shouldn’t be
so foolish over Harriett, but In some
way she seems the only link between
today and the other life. With all my
people gone and Harriett some other
place in this big city I'd feel too aw
fully, miserably lonely.”
Roger saw that Bessie was near
tears. “Poor, lonesome kiddie,” he
thought. And, leaning over, tie stroked
Harriett very carefully. Harriett arch
ed her back, purred and rose slowly to
her feet. Then, turning round, she
jumped squarely into Roger’s lap.
“What a sensible cat!” Roger smiled
at the girl. “You see. site likes me
very much. If only every one—that Is,
some one—liked me very, very much.”
He glanced at the girl slyly. A little
flush had spread over Bessie's face,
and she kept her eyes fixed steadfastly
on the cat.
“I only wish they allowed cats in
my boarding house.” he continued
“That’s one of the troubles of living ■in
a boarding house—you don't get the
real, simon pure comforts of home
Now, I’ll tel! you what we'll do.” lie
cried, jumping to his feet. "We’ll take
Harriett with us and go on a tour o
Inspection in this neighborhood. We'll
hunt up a nice, quiet street where
there are little cottages instead of big
houses, and when we see a nice,
‘homey,’ comfortable housewife in one
of the homes we’ll go in and ask her
to keep Harriett for us.”
“For us?” queried the girl, with it
little laugh.
“Sure,” continued Roger, unabashed.
“You don’t think Harriett belongs to
you alone, do you? I think Harriett
would resent any such idea its that.
She likes me too well, and I like her
too well. No, indeed. I have a minor
ity interest in this cat.”
Tlie girl laughed and rose to her
feet.
“Well, come along.” she said. “1 sup
pose it’s the best think we can do, and
as it’s Sunday afternoon we ought to
bo able to find lots of the people
home.”
Roger helped the girl down the
steps, and, calling to Harriott, they
walked down the street. Harriett, big.
sleek and black, followed decorously
enough until they reached a small,
rather obscure cross street.
Roger happened to be looking back
as they crossed this street and discov
ered Harriett very sedately ambling
down the little thoroughfare.
“Come here, Harriett." Roger called
and then whistled to the cat.
Harriett paid not tlie slightest atten
tion. but continued her sedate walk
away from Roger and the girl. Bessie
called, but even to her Harriett paid
no attention.
“Well, I declare!” cried the girl in
surprise. “Harriett has always been
peculiar, but she lias never acted like
this before."
“Lot's follow her and see where she
goes,” cried Roger. “Perhaps she is
looking for a home or perhaps she has
a home already picked out.”
“All right." said Bessie.
They turned back and hastened aft
er Harriett, who was now about a
fourth of a block abend. The street
was a quiet one. Neither Roger nor
Bessie was familiar with it and had
paid but little attention to it in previ
ous times.
Now. however, they glanced curious
ly at the small, rather cozy houses
which lined the sides. Although erect
ed within recent years, they were al
most old fashioned j*v comparison
with the big buildings *Tu the more im
portant streets near by. It seemed as
if the little street was a mere eddy in
the swirling life and progress all
around it.
“Oh, I like this street!” cried Bessie.
“It appeals to me, too,” declared
Roger, with conviction.
For several blocks they followed
Harriett, who continued iter steady
course. At last they saw the oat turn
into a gate in a charming stone fence,
and they hastened after her.
The fence inclosed a cozy little cot
tage, well set back from the sidewalk.
In the yard were a couple of trees, a
flower bed or two and a delightful
path, bordered by a low hedge, which
ran up to the spacious veranda.
The little home had such a piquant,
happy look that involuntarily both
Roger and Bessie smiled as they gazed
at it.
Then Roger laughed.
“Look who’s on the veranda!" he
cried. ,
Bessie looked closely and gasped
There was Harriett, curled up tightly
in the blaze of the sun. as if she had
been in the habit of lying there just
like that day in and day out for years.
“Well,” cried the girl, “Harriett
scents to bo perfectly satisfied with the
place.”
“Yes," acknowledged Roger. "I could
be happy, too, In a home like this if I
had the right person to share it with
me.” I-Ie looked directly at tho girl.
For a fleeting moment iter eyes met
his, and then, startled and with her
face flushed, site ran up the path to
the veranda.
"Why,” site exclaimed as site reached
the first step, "there's no one living
here—the place is for rent!” She point
ed to a sign that had slipped from its
position in a window.
“Why, so it is!” cried Roger. "Har
riett can’t stay here, of course—unless
—unless”— lie looked at Bessie with
a smile full of meaning.
“Of course she can’t stay here!” cried
the girl, making a grab for the cat. "1
wish we could find a home for her,
though, in in a nice little place like
this.”
She caught the cat tip in her arms.
“How Harriott would enjoy the
place,” mused Roger. "Look, there’s
a big open fireplace in I lie front room,
and there's a fine, dandy place where
we could have our piano.”
“We?” gasped the girl. With her
face aflame and with the cat clasped
tightly site ran off down the path.
But Harriett, who had been purring
very contentedly in her mistress’ arms,
now became very angry. She snarled
and dug tier claws into Bessie’s coat
until the girl was forced to put her
down.
“Why, Harriett!” she exclaimed in
pained astonishment. "What’s (he
matter with he"? She never acted
that way before."
“I’m sure I don't know,” replied
Roger. “But look what site's doing
now. Harriett may be a very peculiar
cat, but she certainly knows a good
thing when she sees it.”
He pointed at Harriett, who, on be
ing released, had torn frantically back
up the path to the veranda. On tlie
veranda she walked around in a circle
once or twice and then curled herself
up on the floor in almost tho identical
spot and almost the identical manner
as before.
“Well, I never!" cried (lie girl. She
hurried back to tlie veranda and, sit
ting down on the top step, began pot
ting the cat. Roger lost no time in sit
ting down beside Bessie.
"Dear!” he cried as lie managed to
imprison one of her hands. “Dear
heart, why not follow tho road Har
riett has pointed out? Why not let
this dear lit lie house be Harriett’s
home and at the same time a real home
for you and me? Come, dear, it only
needs a minister and a marriage license
to make us all three happy.”
“Git, I will; I will!” site cried sud
denly, throwing her arms about Rog
er's neck. “We’ll none of us be lonely
again!”
Harriett, witli a sigh of content that
appealed to the couple as almost hu
man. rose from her spot and, purring
loudly, rubbed her side against the
arm with which Roger was clasping
the girl.
Other Times. Other Manners.
Sir Algernon West strikes a curious
note on the ear of the present genera
tion in tho course of a book of remi
niscences, “One City and Many Men.”
when lie states that in his youth it
was considered highly improper for a
wife to address iter husband by ids
Christian name or for a son to ad
dress his parents without saying “sir”
or “ma’am.”
“I never heard my mother call my
father by ills Christian name,” lie
writes, “and I recollect distinctly that
the fame of a very fashionable and
brilliant woman was seriously imper
iled because after some great man’s
death a letter from her to him was
discovered beginning with his Chris
tian name.
“Tlie formal ‘sir’ was current every
where. At Eton we never recognized
any departure from this practice, and
letters between boy friends began,
‘My dear sir.’
“A friend of mine dining with Lady
Jersey heard Iter say she never recol
lected iter father. Lord Westmoreland,
though specially attached to her sis
ter. Lady Lonsdale, calling her any
thing but Lady Lonsdale. And Henry
Greville. who was present at the same
dinner, said that lie remembered his
mother, Lady Charlotte, and her broth
er, the Duke of Portland, meeting in
tlie morning at Welbeck abbey, when
the salutations were;
“‘TIow is your ladyship this morn
ing?"
“‘I am quite well. I am obliged to
your grace.’ ”
He Didn't Say It.
He was a good little boy. and he
lived not many miles from Boston. He
never disobeyed his mother, lie never
called her flumes when her orders
were not bis wishes, and lie had the
face of an angel. Next door lived lit
tle Rosy, a girl who proved tlie prov
erb about small pitchers. One day
Harry was allowed to go over to play
with Rosy, but with strict orders not
to take off Itis hat and coat to go in
tho house if Rosy could not come out
into the yard.
Rosy could not come out, but would
not Harry lake off his things and play
inside? Harry quoted sadly his moth
er's injunction.
“Your mamma is a silly,” said Rosy
crossly.
Harry went home and told his moth
er what Rosy had said. “She is a very
naughty little girl,” his mother de
clared. "You must never say such a
word.”
“No, mamma, I won’t,” said the duti
ful Harry. f
A few days later he was again for
bidden to do something which he
greatra desired to do. “Mamma.” snid
he, lifting to hers his angelic face, “do
you remember what Rosy said about
you?”—New York Tribune.
JUST A WORD TO CUSTOMERS
-OF THE - - -
Coweta F ertilizer Co.
Nh\\ NAN, GA., March 26, 1909.
On account of the unreasonable, and we might say un
just competition this year, we have been forced to reduce the
prices of our FER1 ILIZERS to where we are now offering
them to our friends and patrons at cost, and below, as we do
not intend to be forced out of business by any competition;
but no prices that anybody GAN make, or that we may agree
to meet, will ever force 11s to reduce the standard of our goods.
The same high standard that vve have maintained for the past
TWENTY YEARS will STILE he maintained, and you
will get the same quality of goods to-day that have been of
fered you season after season for the past twenty years.
Do not let anybody fool you about making any better
goods than the “COWETA” brands. Very few make as good,
and none make any better. Therefore, we hope, and ask, that
our customers give us an opportunity to sell them again, and
we absolutely guarantee the quality of our goods. The same
representatives that have been with us for nearly twenty years
are still selling “COWETA” goods. Those same good far
mers, or a majority of them, are still usings “COWETA”
brands, and will have no other—a record to be proud of.

Judge I. D. Fairchild of
Lufkin, Texas, had two
houses painted, both same
size. One was painted with
a leading top-price paint,
and took 25 gallons. The
other was painted with
Devoe, and took only 159
gallons. The “leading
paint” referred to is adul
terated 15%, hut is sold at
the same price as Devoe.
The most economical paint
always is the one that takes
least gallons and wears longest,
and that’s Devoe.
