For more than one hundred years the United Stales have made the proud boast that this country oould live re- Kardless of any exigencies that might exiBt in other purls of the world; that this country, hounded as it is on the one hand by the I’aciflc ocean and on the other by the Atlantic, separated thousands of miles from the "Yellow Peril;" on the other hand separated thousands of miles from the heterogen eous elements of Continental Huropo— the rest of the world might go to hell, if they chose to do so, and still we would be basking under the sunny skies of America—the land bubbling over with milk and honey and hog and homi ny. And now, my fellow -citizens, wo have an opportunity to illustrate! the declara tion made by every hill-billie orator of the last century or more, from the mountains of New Hampshire to the swutnps of Florida, and yet here we are, tht* average one of os, going around like a mangy dog, whining about the "war." You can hardly get an audi ence with a man on any subject, and nine-tenths of the people seem to he under the impression that Homebody bus done them or their folks a serious injury. The question at this hour is not "Who hit Billie Patterson?”—but are the American people—the Southern people a lot of pule-face molly-coddles, with skimmed gout's milk (lowing through their veins, or have they inherited the rich, red blood of our American sires who left their bloody footprints on the frozen valleys of Virginia, when George Washington led them on to a victorious deliverance from the yoke of English royalty? These men won because they had sand m their gizzards instead of grape mils, and guts in their bellies instead of tapeworms. True, we nmy have to abandon some of our twentieth century luxuries. It may he necessary for us to adjust our selves to a new basis of living—but should we surrender? True it is. some of our folks may have to divert to some extent the stream of gold that has for the last ton years flowed from our vaults and into the coffers of Mr. Ford, Mr. Packard, Mr. Uuick and Mr. Sax on, and other esteemed fellow-country men to the north of us. but w« can still raise mule colts nnd jersey hulls and get there somehow, even though it he at a lower rate of speed. True it may be. that our women folks may have to suspend their suffragette convocations for a brief spell and re sume the monotonous business of look ing after the bailies and knitting sox for the men- but this is the way they used to do and they managed to live through it. True it may he, that our dads won't have quite as much money to spend on their boys in the way of Piedmont cigarettes, patent leather shoes and ice eriom clothes, and it may even be pos sible that the boy will have to learn something about self-denial and pliysi- c»l labor -but this is the way they used ti do, and several of them managed to live through it Take, for instance, Abraham 1 .incolii and a few other cheap skates. True it may he. that some of our far- — v mers will bp driven, against their will* to the production of hog and hominy, peas and potatoes and sorghum and cider—but that iB the way they used to do in the old days, and some of them managed to live through it. True it may be, that the insincere politician who has been feeding the "dear people” on glitte'ing generali ties and pleasing platitudes may be called upon to deliver the goods instead of honeyed phrases—but this is the way they used to do in the old days and the country managed to survive it. True it may be, that these kind of times serve to show up in the commu nity who is tho real man and who is the humbug, but we will have to submit if we can’t do any better. True it may he, that preachers will be driven to revisiting the sick, the widows and orphans, and preaching the gospel instead of politicking around— but that is tho way they used to do in the old days, und it may even be possible for us to survive the conditions of that extreme character at the present time. England's unpreparedness for tin's war is literally astounding; they have boon raising milksops over there in stead of men, and suffragettes instead of mothers. In France they have been intoxicated for a generation or more with an inor dinate love for dress, dissipation in all forms, and a repudiation of God. On the other hand, Germany lias giv en the world an object lesson in home making, statesmanship, manufacturing, banking, farming and religion, (although they do drink a little beer in the after noon after spending e good part of the morning at church.) It is probably not necessary, however, for one to drink a little beer in order to he truly religious. 1 have not subscribed to Teutonic su premacy, because I have believed that there is too much trace of Bismarck and Von Moltke’s “blood and iron" policy in the German people. On tho other hand, I say lot tho beat man win, and let’s quit whining nnd go to work. Suppose Germany had our opportuni ties. Suppose German farmers had the same opportunity to-day that the South ern farmer has within his grasp; he would not only feed his own family, but supply produce for families across the seas. Some people say that if the Germans should win over tho ullied armies that they would then ply their aggressions to the south of us; seize the Fanu- ma Canal und destroy the Monroe Doc trine and dominate the commerce of South America. Suppose all this should happen, which might merely after till be the vagary of some mild-mannered statesman’s imagination, is that uny reason why wo should go around with a face as long as a lamp post talking war instead of work? The American people stultified the Monroe Doctrine when they planted themselves on the Philippine Islands, on which the "Yellow Peril" ulready had one foot. The German people have ulready ta ken advantage of our supineness, and now practically control the commerce of South America. One word in conclusion, and this is with reference to our merchants and bankers. The only criticism I have for either is that they have been too good to the people. All this talk to the con trary is nonsense and is ingratitude, and the man who indulges in it will wuke up before this thing is over to the fact that he has been making a fool of him self. I.et’s get down to hrass tacks —adjust ourselves to the new conditions—turn our faces to the rising sun—get busy! Wright Willingham, l’res't Koine Chamber of Commerce. - What Would You Do ? There are many times when on“ man questions another’s actions and motives. Men act differently un der different circumstances The ques tion is, what would you do right now if you had a severe odd?

Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 22.—Cotton plan ters may lose as much on damaged cot ton next spring as they have lost by war prices, is the belief of many ex perts who have been studying the situ ation, and they say planters should make haste to store their bales out of the weather. Bankers, it is stated, can perform a valuable service by using every resource to force cotton into storage. Haynes McFadden, secretary of the Georgia Bankers’ Association, is sending out to members a letter written to President L. G. Council, of the association, by Mr. Mills B. Lane, of Savannah, who says; "It is our opinion that the planter will be as great a loser by damaged cot ton next spring when he is ready to sell as he is damaged by low prices now. I believe it would do more good if the bankers' association could bring about a campaign to make the farmers pro tect their cotton than anything it has attempted. ” Commenting on this President Coun cil says; "1 certainly think it would be well for our association to get busy along this lino and try to prevail upon far mers to store their cotton in the ware houses and out of the weather. If our banks will take hold of this it will, in my judgment, help materially. "I might also say that the farmers, as 1 see it, should bring their cotton in to the warehouses if for no other pur pose than to turn the receipts over to their creditors. In my section I find many are holding back their cotton on their farms, when they have obligations that should be secured, at least with the warehouse receipts for this cotton, until finally sold.” The bankers’ assodiation, which is making every effort to relieve the situ* ation in cotton, will mako a campaign all over the State, urging that the cot ton bo properly protected.

Tho lovely girl, having lingered a min ute to make sure that her skirt fitted to her entire satisfaction, descended to the parlor to find the family pet in- sconced upon the knee of the young man caller, and her curly head ne3tled com fortably against his shoulder. “Why, Mabel," the young lady ex claimed, "aren’t you ashamed of your self?

CATES DRUG CO., Newnan A Sketch From Life. Judge Henry Revill. in Meriwether Vindicator. The must humanly human picture my eyes ever beheld is a boy in a buggy with his sweetheart and driving a mule. The very awkwardness of tlie couple emphasizes the absence of guile, and the naturalness of the situation displays tho sincerity of tho actors. Such a picture I saw Sunday. The boy was a caution. He didn’t know what to do with his hands and feet. He was certain as to where he wanted his arm to be, hut not sure it would do to put it there. The girl, too, was just as much at a loss to know what to do with her feet and hands. Their facial expressions reminded you more of syrup candy than anything else. It was nature. It was free from all art or hypocrisy. ’Twas the spontane ous picture of two human hearts mir rored in human faces.

HUSBAND RESCUED I DESPAIRING WIFE After Four Years of Discouraging Conditions, Mrs. Bullock Gave Up in Despair. Husband Came to Rescue. Catron, Ky.—in an interesting letter from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock writes as follows: "I suffered for four years, with womanly troubles, and during this time, 1 could only sit up for a little while, and could not walk anywhere at i all. At times, I would have severe pains in my left side. Tlie doctor was called in, and his treat- ; meat relieved me for a while, but 1 was soon confined to my bed again. After 1 that, nothing seemed to do me any good. I had gotten so weak I could not stand, and I gave up in despair. At last, my husband got me a bottle of Cardui, the woman's tonic, and I com menced taking it. From the very first dose, 1 could tell it was helping me. I can now walk two miles without its tiring me, and am doing all my work.” If you are all run down from womanly troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped more than a million women, in its 50 years of continuous success, and should surely help you, too. Your druggist has sold Cardui for years. He knows what it will do. Ask him. He will recom mend it. Begin taking Cardui today. Write to: ChatUnoozi .Medicine Co.. Ladles’ Advisory Dept.. Chattanooga. Tenn., for SpeciiU JiuKrurtions on your case and 6d-pace book.
