'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.

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. How To Give Quinine To Children.

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 hy all dealers. 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. Ever notice how closely life insurance examiners look for symptoms of kidney diseases? They do so because weakened kidneys lead to many forms of dreadful, life-shortening afflictions. If you have any symptoms like pain in the back, fre quent. scanty or painful action, tired feeling, aches and pains, get Foley’s Kidney Pills to-day. For sale by all dealers.

Palmyra, Pa. — “Three years ago my little girl had black measles which left her with a chronic cough and so awfully thin you could count all her ribs,anil she coughed so much she had no appetite. “Nothing we gave her seemed to help her at t il until one day Mrs. Neibert told me how much good Vinol had done her little girl, so I decided to try it for my little one, and it has done her so much good she is hungry all the time, her cough is gone, she .'.i stouter and more healthy in color and this is the first win ter she has been able to play out in the snow, coasting and snow-balling without any ill effects.’’—Mrs. Alfred Slack, Palmyra, Pa.

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 horror : -ay easily he Imagined when she heard her daughter call, “Dood night, danpa, old kid.” 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. Excelsior. "You eon never tell these days,” re marked i he man in the armchair, "where the uplift will bob up next.

Their Days of Comfort. We have come to the belief that the happiest ones in the world are those who, having experienced wealth and the intolerable bother of keeping to a certain standard of fashion and high living, lose their money and are then able thoroughly to enjoy the ease and comfort of poverty and privation.
