NEWNAN HERALD & ADVERTISER VOL. XLIX. NEWNAN, GA., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1913. NO. 10 - STORE - Every Farmer Should Sow Oats We urge everybody to sow oats this fall, as all kinds of feedstuff will be high next spring and summer. We have the genuine home-raised Appier Oats for sale. Flour We have cheap flour, but would not recommend our friends to buy these grades. If you want a flour that will make good biscuits, that will keep your wife in a good humor and your digestion in good condition, we advise you to get a barrel of our famous DESOTO FLOUR. Do this and your bread problem will set tle itself. This flour is made of the finest soft winter wheat, and every sack is guaranteed. Overalls We sell the “Headlight”—the best overalls made. “Star Brand” Shoes Are Better These shoes are all leather, and we have them in •all sizes—for men, women and children. Try us on your winter bill for shoes this time and you will not regret it. Feedstuffs We carry only the best hay and ground feeds. Our “Old Beck” mixed feed is the best balanced ra tion for stock that you'can get. We also sell “Como” hen feed, bran and shoits. Just received, a car-load of the saltiest salt-*-the kind that will save your meat. Our big stove is now in operation. Drop in and make yourself at home. Everybody welcome at this store, at all times. T. G. FARMER & Turning Plows H. G. Arnall Mdse. Co. ’Phone 342. ’Phone 58. We are carrying a larger line of middle-breakers than ever before—not because there are more middles to break, but because there are more people who want to plow them the best and cheapest way. This means ECONOMY, and more returns for la bor. It also means that the plowing will be deeper and more uniform. We claim that our No. 18 plow will do more work in less time, with less draft, than any plow made. We carry in stock any kind of turner, in one and two-horse. When you go to buy a turner, buy the one best suited for your kind of land. The CHATTANOOGA PLOWS are better than any other, and every one we sell is guaranteed to turn your land. We do not have to order the parts for you; we have them ready in stock; therefore, if you are in the market for any kind of plow, we ask that you look at the Chattanooga Plows. THE CLOSED DOOR. Love knocked. Youth heerd and Ultened, but Woe busy with his gold that day;— . She knocked again, the door was shut. Then sadly turned away. Love knocked once more In after years. But Fame was calllntr up the height; With broken heart she left in tears, For it was almost night. Time bore the Youth to green old age; She gavo him wealth and fame and more, But somehow life was like a cage. For love had closed the door. —[H. E. Harman. Things in Which Georgia Leads the World..

Fiftieth Anniversary of Gen. Morgan’s Escape. Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 27.—Some of the old-time residents of Columbus re called the fact that yesterday waB the fiftieth anniversary of one of the most stirring Civil War incidents that oc curred in this city—the sensational es cape of Gen. John H. Morgan from the Ohio State penitentiary. After raiding large section of Kentucky, Gen. Mor gan at the head of his daring little band of cavalrymen had crossed the Ohio river and penetrated the State as far as Steubenville, the most northerly point to which the flag of the Confederacy waB carried during the war. The advance of Morgan’s men created great alarm throughout Ohio and it was with a feel ing of relief that the people learned of the capture of the daring leader and his lodgment behind the bars of the State prison. Equally great was the sensation caused by his escape. The method by which he obtained his free dom has always remained a deep mys tery. Many persons believed that he and his companions had fled through a secret tunnel from the prison to the Seotio river. But when a large part of the prison was torn down and rebuilt a year or two ago no evidence of such a tunnel waB found. The cell in which Morgan was confined was left intact for half a century and wbb marked by a tablet inscribed with the date of the escape. The generally accepted belief ia that the Confederate leader received aid from sympathizers inside the prison, whose assistance made hiB escape an easy matter. Be Jealous of the Beauty of Your Hair.

John R. Cates Drug Co. and | Stanley-Johnson Co:, Newnan; Ga. What Georgia Should Produce. In view of the fact that Georgians are having so much to say regarding the numerous products which can be raised in this State, and the further fact that we have recently celebrated “Geor gia Products Day,” it might be well to call attention to the fact that hundreds of farmers are buying— Salt pork from KansaB City. Canned goods from Maryland.' Feedstuffs from the Middle West. Butter from New York and Illinois. Chickens and egga from Tennessee. Horses and mules from Missouri. Syrup from Louisiana. Cattle and swine from out of the State. And this in spite of the fact that they could raise their own swine and cattle, Balt their own pork, can their own fruits and vegetables, have their own milk and butter, raise plenty of chickens and get an abundance of freBh eggs, grow sorghum and boil their own Byrup, and plant alfalfa and winter crops and have a silo. And some few Georgians actually buy their corn from the West! There is need for an awakening among the farmers, truckers and cattle-raisers of Georgia. John Wacaster, postmaster at Mur- rayville, Ga., says: "I suffer with a terrible cough whenever I take the least cold, and my bronchial tube be comes affected. I never use anything but Foley’B Honey and Tar, as I have found from experience that it is the best and surest cough medicine I ever used.” J. F. Lee Drug Co. Make Home Attractive. You can make home happy by bits of kindness and little courtesies. In this day of cheap literature the very beat of reading matter is within reach of every family. The current magazines and the best of agricultural paperB may be had at a trifling cost, and these should be found in every home. A comfortable sitting room, made warm and light, should invite the children to spend their evenings by the fireside. Unless these things are furnished at home it iB only natural that the young people should seek them elsewhere, and after an' evening spent out amid life and gayety the boys and girls often re turn to their cold and uninviting home. We believe many a boy has formed his first resolve to quit the farm when crawling into a cold bed in a cold, clammy bed-room after he haa spent an evening at a party or Borne scene of festivity in the city or village. Give the children plenty of home comforts and make the farm fireBide the brightest and the most interesting place on earth and the young people will learn to love the farm and not seek the ephemeral joys of life In a town. California Woman Seriously Alarmed ‘A short time ago 1 contracted a se vere cold which settled on my lungs and caused me a great deal of annoy ance. I would have bad coughing spells and my lungs were so sore and inflamed I began to be seriously alarm ed. A friend recommended Chamber lain’s Cough Remedy, saying she had used it for years. I bought a hottle and it relieved my cough tne first night, and in a week I was rid of the cold and Boreness of my lungs,” writes Miss Marie Gerber, Sawtelle, Cal. For sale by all dealers. There’s no monotony in the life of a woman who marries a man to reform him. Cured of Liver Complaint. “I was suffering with liver com plaint,” Bays Iva Smith of Point Blank, Texas, “and decided to try a 26c. box of Chamberlain’s Tablets, and am hap py to say that I am completely cured and can recommend them to every one.” For sale by all dealers. An Essay on Health. Man drinks whiskey, and that elogs the valves. He drinks beer, and that clogs the wheels. He drinks lemonade, ginger ale, buttermilk, ice tea, coffee, etc., then wonders why the boilers do not burn. If you should take an ox and put him through any like performance he would be dead in a month. The simplest and plainest laws of health are outraged every day by the average man. Did Adam smoke? Did Evh wear a corset? Did Solomon chew tobacco? Did Ruth chew gum? Did the children of Israel make for a beer garden after crossing the Red Sea? Did Rebecca eat chocolate bonbons and ice cream and call for soda water? Adam was the first man, Bnd was made perfect from head to heel. How long would ho have remained ao after eating pie before going to bed? Suppose he had slept in a bed-room 6 by 7, with the windows down, the doors shut, and two dogs under the bed? Suppose Eve had been laced up in a corset, worn tight shoes, hobble fig leaves, and sat up all hours of nights eating chicken salad and Welsh rare bit and trying to keep on four pounds of dead peoples' hair? E. J. Hudson, Cross Keys, Ga., used Foley’s Cathartic Tablets without the slightest inconvenience or sickness, and Bays; “I have UBed many liver pills and tried many cathartics, but believe Fo ley’B CathBrtic Tablets are the best on earth. They are a perfect cathartic, and always satisfy beyond expecta tion.” J. F. Lee Drug Co. Mrs. Evans was making a call on Mrs. Frances, and they were enjoying a chat about some of their neighbors. "Mrs. Green,” said the hostess, “is a woman who suffers much for her be lief.” "Indeed,” replied the caller won- deringly; “and what is her belief?” . "Why,” continued the hostess, “she believes she can wear a No. 3 shoe on a No. 6 foot.” To Prevent Blood Poisoning apply at once the wonderful old reliable DR.
