Jas. E. Brown, Chm’n
Newnan, Ga., July 22, 1914.
Will Speak For Gov. Brown.
Atlanta, Ga., July 22.—Announce
ment has been made here that Hugh
Dorsey will speak in Gainesville
July 28 in the interest of Jos. M
Brown, and in Royston on July 29.
Grover Edmondson will make a num
ber of speeches for “Little Joe,” his
first one in) Moultrie next Saturday
July 25. He has other South Georgia
dateB during July and August. Julian
McCurry and S. J. Cowan will also
speak for the Marietta man.
So far, no plans have been announced
for any campaign speeches in behalf of
Senator Smith. It seems probable that
his campaign will be one of organiza
tion, and complete elimination of speak
ing and campaign oratory.
In the short term race it is claimed
that Gov. Slaton is making steady ad
vances. His friends say that he will
lead the field on Aug. 19, and may go
into the convention with enough votes
to win on the first ballot.
Resolutions on the Death of Thomas
E. Zellars.
Thos. E. Zellars was born in Newton
county, Ga., and while a small boy his
father moved to Campbell county, and
settled some l! or 7 miles west of Pal
metto, where the subject of this sketch
was brought up on a farm and received
Buch education as the common schools
of that time afforded. In young man
hood he joined the Confederate army
and did service until the close of the
war. In common with many others,
he came out of the army penniless. In
the fall of 1865 he came to Grantville
and opened a small stock of merchan
dise in a wooden house where the
present Zellars brick building now
stands, his partner being Cant. W. J.
Garrett, of Atlanta, and the firm name
Garrett & Zellars. Mr. Garrett seldom
came here, and from its incipiency the
business was managed and conducted
by the resident member, Mr. Zellars.
By his wise and Bagacinus management
the business, from a small beginning,
grew to be one of the largest and most
prosperous in Western Georgia. After
the death of his partner he Bought out
the partner’s interest and continued the
business in his own name until some
four or five years before his death,
when, having accumulated a handsome
fortune, he retired from business. He
was one of the founders of the Bank of
Grantville, serving first as a director,
and afterwards as president of that in
stitution.
He tharried Mies Ella Moreland,
daughter of the late Thomas C. More
land, of this place. From this union
six children were born, one dying in in
fancy. His beloved wife preceded him
to the grave some twenty odd years,
leaving him with four daughters and
one son to rear. The death of his wife
was a blow from which he never re
covered. He lived to see all of his
children grown and married, and, after
it would seem his life work was finish
ed. he died on the 24th day of January,
1914, mourned by his family and a
countless number of friends. He was
man of strict honesty and integrity,
and of rare business acumen and abil
ity. In early life he joined the Baptist
church, and remained a loyal and faith
ful member until the day of his death.
On the 6th day of January, 1903, he
was duly elected on the board of direc
tors of the Grantville Hosiery Mills,
and of his zeal, interest and usefulness
in this connection we, who were as
sociated with him, cheerfully bear
testimony. Therefore, be it resolved
by this board, in regular meeting as
sembled—
1. That in the death of Mr. T. E.
Zellars this board has lost one of its
most lovable and valued members; and
that, in common with his many friends
and fellow-citizens, we deeply deplore
his going away.
2. That these resolutions be spread
on a page specially set apart on the
minute book of this body, and that a
copy thereof he furnished to each of his
surviving children. W. G. Sadler,
R. O. Jones,
W. A. Post,

Tells Farmers About Boll Weel.
Atlanta, Ga., July 22.—The boll wee
vil, the terror of the cotton planter, is
interestingly discussed in a late report
by Farmer Jim Price, State Commis
sioner of Agriculture. Mr. Price shows
that last vear the boll weevil camped
within a few miles of the Georgia line
for the winter, and if it had not been
for the early frost would have crossed
into Georgia. Mr. Price believes it will
be three years before the weevil will
be sufficiently established in this sec
tion of the South to be formidable, and
thBt by taking advantage of others’ ex
perience and the aid offered by the
State Department of Agriculture the
planter can equip himself to raise just
as much cotton then as now.
Bobbie’s grandfather was a veteran
of the Civil War, and in talking to his
grandson about the battles, he said:
"Nearly a generation ago, Bobbie, my
head was grazed by a bullet in the bat
tle of Chickamauga.”
Bobbie looked at the bald pate of his
grandsire attentively and said: “Not
much grazing there now, is there, grand
pa?”
Sixteen new railways are being built
in Switzerland, some of which will be
completed this year.
Boy or Girl?
Great Question!
This brings to many minds nn old and
tried family remedy—nn external ap
plication known as "Mother’s Friend.”
During the period of expectancy it i.i
npplfc'd to the abdominal muscles and la
designed to soothe the intricate network
of nerves involved. In thlo manner it
has such a splendid intluence as to justify
Its use in all cases of comliiff mother
hood. It has been generally recom
mended for years and yearn and thoso
who have used it speak in highest praise
of the immense relief it affords. Partic
ularly do theRe knowing mothers speak
of the absence, of morning sickness,
absence of strain on the ligaments and
freedom from those many other dis
tresses which are usually looked forward
to with so much concern.
There is no question but what
"Mother’s Friend” has a marked tendency
to relieve the mind and this of itself in
addition to the physical relief has Kivon
it a very wide popularity among women.
It is absolutely safe, to use, renders
the skin pliable, Is penetrating in Its
nature and is composed of those embro
cations best suited to thoroughly lubri
cate the nerves, muscles, tendons and
ligaments involved.

GLORIOUS HAIR
Girls and women of all ages want to
be beautiful and attractive, but un
sightly, thin and lifeless hair destroys
half the beauty of a pretty face.
If your hair is losing its natural col
or, is falling out. dull, streaky, full of
dandruff, too dry, or if the scalp itches
and burns, do not be alarmed ; use Faris
ian Sage. Rub it well into the scalp.
It will go right to the hair roots,
nourish them, and stimulate the hair
to grow long and beautiful. It removes
dandruff with one application, stops
itching scalp, falling hair and makes
the head feel fine.
Parisian Sage supplies the hair with
what is needed to make it soft, and
gloriously radiant. It is sold in
fifty cent bottles by John R. Cates and
at all drug counters. Look for the
trademark —“The Girl with the Auburn
Hair.” Accept no other.
