Some of the leading farmers and
business men of Coweta county
have undertaken to solve the prob

have banded themselves together
for t Ins purpose in an organization
known us the “Coweta County Cot -

The Cot ton Growers’ Association
proposes to raise prices by cut ting
down tli«*- size of the cotton crop.
Its plan is to reduce t lie crop
in Coweta county this year 21 1 per
cent, as compared with the crop
of Biot. Practical methods for
keeping its members in line are
incorporated in t hi Association’s
| plans; and it seems to lie proceed-

If tin cotton production prob

elVorts along tin* line mapped out
by the Coweta County Cotton
Growers’ \ssociation. The News

Two LcseaDu of tho Origin of Thin
Beautiful Flower.
There are two traditions as to the
origin of the rose. According to Sir
John Mandcvllle, a Jewish maid of
Bethlehem (whom Southey names Zil-
lah) was beloved by a brutish sot
named Hammel. The maiden rejected
this suitor, and lie, in reviyigo, ac
cused Zillah of offenses for which she
was condemned to he burned alive.
When brought to the stake the Humes
refused to hurt Zlllnti, but burned
Hnmmel to a cinder. There she stood
In a garden of roses, for the brands
which had been kindled became red
roses, ami those which had not caught
fire white ones. These, according to
the tradition, were the first roses that
bloomed on earth since the loss of
paradise. ,
Then, according to a Mussulman tra
dition, the rose is thus accounted for:
When Mohammed took Ills journey to
heaven the sweat which fell on the
earth from the prophet's forehead
produced white roses, and that which
fell from the animal he rode upon,
named A1 Borak, produced yellow
ones. At the present day the sellers
of roses in eastern towns cry aloud
in the streets, “The rose was a thorn,
and the sweat of the prophet Moham
med dropping upon it formed it into t*
rose."

BILIOUSNESS
CONSTIPATION
CURED BY
THEDFORDS
BLACK DRAUGHT
P'XDW tbe liver ig
neglected people suffer
with constipation, biliousness,
headaches ami fevers. Colds attack ]
the lungs and contagious diseases I
take bold of the system. It is safe
to say that if the liver were always
kept in proper working order,
illness would lie almost unknown.
Thedford’s Black-Draught, is so
successful in curing such sickness I
because it is without a rival as a |
liver regulator. This great family
medicine is not a strong and
drastic drug, but a mild and
healthful laxative that cures con
stipation and may he taken by a
mere child with out possible
harm.
The healthful action on the liver I
cures, biliousness. It has an in-1
vigornting effect, on the kidneys.
Because tlie liver and kidneys do
not work regularly, the poisonous
acids along with tho waste from
the bowels get, back into the blood
and virulent contagion results.
T'inely treatment with Thed
ford’s Bbek-Drnught removes tlie
dangers which lurk in constipation,
liver and kidney troubles, and will
positively forestall tho inroads of
Bright’s disease, for which dis
ease in advanced stages there is
no cure. Ask your dealer for a
25c. package of Thedford’s Black- J
Draught.
