'VITAL FORCE'
Disease germs arc on every 1 land. They are in the very air
we breathe. A system “run down” is a prey for them. One
must have vital force to withstand them. Vital force depends
on digestion—on whether or not food nourishes—on the
quality of blood coursing through the body.

Trade at Home.
C»l toruvlllo Tribune.
Borne of tho loudest cronkors con
cerning hard times are tlinse who uro
contributing their dollars nnd furnish
ing trade to Atlanta and other foreign
cities.
How anyone can consistently sing a
“sob song" of “hard times." unmind
ful of their own responsibility for at
least, partially contributing to such u
result, passes all understanding.
Wo wonder if the people of C.irters-
vilie* really seriously consider how much
they are themselves contributing to dull
times in Cartersvilln by taking such a
course? We do not believe they do.
Nevertheless, they are. The (’art rs-
ville stores carry in slock, sufficient in
variety and quality, every species of
goods nnd every sort of article that can
he bought in Atlanta or elsewhere. It
may ho a problem surrounded with a
little difficulty to make a selection, hut
this is just ns true when one goes to
Atlanta as when one undertakes to
trade in Cartersvillo.
We pity the man or woman who is so
hard to please that they can't be satis
fied with an article purchased in Car-
torsville. Aside from the question of
mere sentiment surrounding the prop
osition of patronizing home industries,
thoro is tho economic problem which
this town will ulways be compelled to
meet as long ns its citizens patronize
Atlanta and foreign cities in preference
to Cartersvillo and its mercantile es
tablishments and industries. We are
creating a balance of trade aguinst us
because we nro sending our dollars to
Atlanta, »hile Atlanta sends nothing
to Cartersvillo.
We are producing wealth which we
arc spending elsewhere, and the elTuct
of such a policy will just as surely re
sult disadvantageous^ to the future
progress of this town nnd county as it
is that it is practiced.
Cartersvillo merchants pay t heir
taxes to maintain the expense of
government which furnishes us with
schools, roads, and every other govern
mental convenience nnd necessity. Yet
we wilfully and knowingly board an ear
ly morning train, pay railroad fare and
the various incidental expenses associ
ated with a trip, to do our shopping in
Atlanta.
Do Atlanta people board early morn
ing trains for Cartersvillo.' Does Atlanta
help us pay our taxes? Are you simply
beguiled by the schemes and Hattery of
the Atlanta "merchant prince” into
believing that you are personally a par
ticular friend of this merchant, and
that he will do anything for you or
your town, or for the relief of any finan
cial distress that may beset you?
Are you so simple as to believe that
an article purchased in Atlanta is bet
ter than the same thing purchased in
Cartersvillo for less money? Are you
laboring under the hallucination that
you are getting goods cheaper in At.
Dnta? If you are, keep tab on your
expenses the next time you board a
train for Atlanta and count up at the
end of the day what you have paid out
in ruilroid fare, lunches ami in the
various catchpenny schemes and nickel
traps which you i un into: and when you
.hBve safely deposited your articles at
home examine your cost slips for those
ar.iclcs. tike them to the Cartersvillo
merchant and ascertain what his price
is for the same stuff.
No man or woman having an interest
in the future of their boys and girls
and the prosperity of themselves can
afford to continue the practice of buy
ing in Atlanta or elsewhere things
which can just as well be purchased in
Carte rsville.
The Washington Reporter and the
Early County Nows, both standard
weekly Georgia newspapers, have
raised their subscription rates from $1
to $1.50 a year. This action is being
generally commended by the State
press und by tho subscribers of the
papers. The example thus set should,
and we believe will, he followed by the
majority of weekly newspapers in
Georgia.
One dollar, especially in these times
of high cost of material, is too little for
the average Georgia weekly. The field
of a country weekly is naturally re
stricted, yet. it is expected to cover that
field in the minutest news details. Cir
culation is naturally restricted, yet it
costs almost as much to collect the
news and present it to this circulation
as to a subscription list ten times the
Hizn.
There is a fixed charge on the stand
ard country weekly so exacting that
the manner in which the country editor
meets it out of a $i circulation price is
incomprehensible. It must be remem
bered that tho price received for ad
vertising, (and the country editor must,
largely depend upon advertising for up
keep und profit,) is regulated by circu
lation. lie has a restricted circulation;
lie cannot charge a large price for his
space; yet lie must serve a good paper.
That is the proposition the man who
runs a weekly in the country is up
against i he year around. He simply
cannot figure a profit at. one dollar per
year.
All thiH is not to reckon with the
other services performed for the com
munity services for which in their na
ture it is impossible to put a price.
The country editor is generally the
chief, or one of the chief, develop
mental influences of his county. lie
lights its battles along the lines of local
civic sentiment. He is called upon to
perform innumerable services for which
he receives little, ami sometimes noth
ing.
A tariff of $1.50 is small enough to
cover his overhead charges and enable
him to make both ends meot. The
Constitution hopes it will soon be made
the uniform price throughout Georgia.

Give the White Tenant a Better
Chance.
Tho I’roRrrosnivo Farmer.
The writer certainly would not excite
any prejudice against, our wealthier
land-owning whites, men of ability and
leadership, but we do want to appeal to
them, as the future of the South is
largely m their hands, to see that the
honest, struggling white men gut a bet
ter chance as tenants. There are not
many dishonest landlords who prefer a
negro because it is easier to take ad
vantage of him. Hut there are thous
ands who prefer a negro tenant be
cause ho will live in any kind of house,
or because it seems possible to make a
little more money by furnishing him
supplies. Yet in the long run, when the
better system of farming and the better
care of the soil are considered, would it
not pay infinitely better even in dollars
and cents to have intelligent white ten
ants on long leases such as have made
roral England and Scotland a dream of
thrift and beauty? The writer, for ex
ample, in orikr to get a white tenant on
his old home farm, has had to make
permanent improvements we should not
have had to make for negroes, but it
was not until we got a white man that
we ever got a tenant interested in
sowing clover and grain, saving ma
nure, taking care of the land and build
ings, etc. The facts are that many a
shiftless tenant does $100 worth of
damage for each $50 he pays in rent.
If some men had their lives to live
over again they doubtless wouldn't
leave so many dollars for their heirs to
scrap over.

Danger in Following Impractica
ble Plans.
| Tho Protfreaalve Farmer.
There is an old story of a warrior-
king who prayed, "0 Lord, save me
1 frum my friends; I'll look after my ene-
I rnies. ”
The cotton farmers of tho South
might well have prayed a simi ar pray
er in recent weeks. If we could have
kept down the foolish schemes proposed
by so-called frieridsof the farmer, there
would have been less trouble in licking
their enemies. The wild schemes pro
posed by some Southerners at Washing
ton simply drove away from us the sup
port of conservative and sensible men
who might have stood with us. As a [
rule, it is not the man whoTproposes the
biggest and most, alluring scheme we
need to follow, but the man who pre
sents a moderate and well-considered
programme. “It looks to me,’’ said one
farmer to us recently, “as if some of
these agitators really were enemies in
disguise—seiking to discredit the far
mers’ course by their wildcat proposi
tions.”
We ought always to remember that
farmers will get influence in Washing
ton or anywhere else only in proportion
as they are represented by men who
have a knowledge of fundamental prin
ciples of economics, history and govern
ment, and whose proposals are in ac
cord with such principles. And the
worst, enemy of our people is the man
who proposes a wild and impracticable
scheme merely because he thinks it will
please them. Hy following suehdema.
gogues with will-o’-the-wisp schemes
our farmers in all times have suffered
incalculably.
zEiop giveB us the fable of the dog
which, crossing a stream, dropped a
bone to run for its shadow; and it’s a
good story to think about when any
law-to-cure-all-your-troubles is pre
sented. When we run off after im
practicable plans of reform we simply
lose the chance to get practicable re
form.
The Negro and Southern Farm
Life.
"One Among Tbi.-m,” in The Progreaalvo Farmer.
1 once lived in a county in Texas
where conditions were just as they are
hero. The merchants and farmers finally
got to where they couldn’t advance the
negroes any further. Some of them
went to the sugar plantations in Louis-
iana; some went to the towns. White
people came in from Georgia and Ala
bama and bought small tracts of land,
from 40 to (it) acres. The negroes, who
stayed, worked by the day or for part
of the crops. The white people are not
dependent on them, so they nro forced
to work and be law-abiding citizens the
same as the white folks are.
That section is how one of the “gar
den spots.” The small farms are “up-
to-date” as to buildings, equipment,
stock, and tillage. There are good
churches, good schools, few debts, good
morals, and good fellowship between
tho races. Each knows his place, and
does not infringe on the rights of the
other.
Very often people, in talking to the
newspaper men, leave the impression
that a newspaper can devote column
after column to various objects free of
charge without any cost to the publish
er. Every line in a newspaper costs its
publisher something. If it is to benefit
some individual, he may fairly expect
to pay something. You do not go into
u store and ask the proprietor to hand
you out ten pounds of sugar for noth
ing, even though the grocer may be a
personal friend and even though the
gift may not be a large one. If the
beneficiary of advertising does not pay
for it, the publisher has to stand the
loss. Nevertheless, many people can
not seem to learn that a newspaper
pays its expenses by renting its space,
and that it is just as much entitled to
collect rent for the space occupied as
you are for the house you rent to a
tenant.
Biliousness and Constipation Cured.
If you are ever troubled with bilious
ness or constipation you will he inter
ested in the statement of R. F. Erwin,
Peru, Ind. “A year ago last winter l
had an attack of indigestion, followed
by biliousness nnd constipation. Seeing
Chamberlain's Tablets so highly recom
mended, I bought a bottle of them and
they helped me right away.” For sale

One day at a time is the secret of
every noble life. One day at a time-
taken up bravely, with its duties faith
fully done as they come, its trials
patiently borne, its temptations firmly
resisted, its cross cheerfully carried,
its joys rightly used, and its gladness
gathered from every hour as it passes
on. Instead of making many resolu
tions at the first of the year, to be
quickly broken, let us strive to meet
each day bravely, and take what it
brings unquestiohingly.
Life Insurance Refused.

examiners look for symptoms of kidney

Rosemary, aged two, was being
brought up carefully by a mother who
did not approve of slang. She had al
ways played alone, but had recently
had as a playmate a group of little
neighbor boys. Shortly afterward her
dignified grandfather came to the door
ns she was being put to bed, and said,
“Good night, baby." Her mother’s

she heard her daughter call, “Dood

Cost of Civil War.
The actual cost of the great. Civil
war in the United States will never
be known except approximately. It is
safe to say, however, that ilie expendi
ture in actual money on both sides was
more than eight billion dollars, be
sides an economic loss to the whole
country of about thirty billion dollars.
The loss in life from bullets and dis
ease was about a million.

Make the Best at Home
Money spent for the old style, ready
made cough syrups in bottles holding
only 2 to 2X ounces is very largely
wasted, because most of them are com
posed principally of sugar and water.
Yet you have to pay the same price as
if it was all medicine. Stop wasting
this money. Y'ou can make a better
cough medicine at home at one-fifth
the cost. Merely go to John R. Cates
Drug Co.'s and ask for 2 ounces (50e.
worth) of Schiffmann's Concentrated
Expectorant. Mix this with one pint
of granulated sugar and one-half pint
of boiling water, which makes a full
pint. (16 ounces). This new, simple,
pleasant remedy is guaranteed to re
lieve tile worst cough or cold. Also
excellent for Bronchial Asthma, Bron
chitis, croup hoarseness and whooping
cough. One bottle will make enough
home-made cough medicine to probably
last the whole family the entire winter. ;
Children like it. it is so pleasant to;
take, and it positively contains no chlo
roform, opium, morphine or other nar
cotics, as do most cough mixtures. Keep
it on hand in case of emergency and
stop each cough before it gets a firm
hold. The above druggist has been au
thorized to return the money in every
single case where it does not give per
fect satisfaction or is not found the
best remedy ever used. Absolutely no
risk is run in buying this remedy un
der this positive guarantee.
