Momentous Future
In Woman’s Mind
The expectant
mother revolves in
her mind all we un
derstand by destiny.
And It is of the utmost
importance that her
physical comfort be
our first thought. There
is si most splendid rem
edy for this purpose,
known ns “Mother's
Friend.” It is applied
over the muscles of the
stomach, gently rubbed
and at. once penetrates to relievo all
rtratn on nerves, cords, ligaments and all
parts involved. It. makes the muscles so
pliant that they expand naturally. And nt
the same time they are invigorated by the
absence of harassing pains so apt to distress
the mind. Whatever will add to the comfort
of the expectant mother is a great and help
ful influence since a calm and peaceful period
must have a wonderfully beneficial impress
upon the coming child. Get a bottle of
“Mother's Friend’* of any druggist and you
will realize why so many women declare it
to he the most helpful remedy they know of.

During the thunderstorm which

several weeks ago to accept a firist
grade position in South Carolina, which
work she prefers and in which she is
experienced. Miss Wanamaker’s res
ignation last week, however, left a va
cancy in the first grade and the posi
tion was immediately offered ta Miss
Harris, who has decided to remain in
Newnan, since she will have the grade
of work she desires.
Judge J. B. Ware, of Heard county,
was in Hogansville the other day.
Judge Ware has been a citizen of Heard
county nearly eighty-five years, having
been born at the place where he now
lives. He has occupied many offices
of honor and trust conferred on him by
his fellow-citizens, and is now enjoying
an honored old age with his wife, who
is three years younger than himself.
They have been married sixty-six years
and have reared seven sons and three
daughters, most of whom are now
living in this and surrounding counties.
A host of friends wish the Judge and
his good wife many more years ot
prosperity and happiness.—Hogansville
News.
Fifteen months ago Mr. E. S.
Buchanan nut out several peach trees
guaranteed • by the nurseryman from
whom they were purchased tobe an extra
early variety. Much to his surprise the
young trees took on fruit this spring,
and for more than a week now he has
been getting perfectly ripe and deli
ciously flavored peaches from the trees.
When it iB remembered that peach
trees that commence bearing within
three years after planting are con
sidered early varieties, the performance
of Mr. Buchanan’s young trees is cer
tainly remarkable. The stock was
purchased from the Continental Plant
Co., Kittrell, N. C., and is known as
the “Never Miss” variety.
Mrs. Ann Jones, the venerable
mother of Hon. J. Pope Jones, had a
severe fall Tuesday morning and as a
result of the mishap her right hip was
fractured. Dr. T. S. Bailey was
called to attend her, and later Dr. Wil
lis Jones, of Atlanta, was summoned
over the ’phone, who came down on the
10:40 a. m. train. She was made as
comfortable as possible, but owing to
her advanced age it is feared that she
will be confined for many weeks. Mrs.
Jones is nearly 90 years of age, and
prior to the accident was remarkably
Bprightly, physically as well sb men
tally. Indeed, she is one of Coweta’s
most remarkable women in many re-
spectB, and her hosts of friends through
out the county sympathize with her in
her misfortune.

Beautiful
Home
In Newnan
Bums
v
Only a few days since one of the most beautiful homes in Newnan burned
to the ground. Maybe you were there. I was, and as 1 mosied from one side to
the other and watched that beautiful residence go up in flames I observed a
■friend of mine. I stepped up to ply him with questions, (fire insurance is my
business, you see!) when someone behind me said “it was fully covered.”
It is the business man—the real economist, who constructs houses, builds
railroads, irrigates the waste places, and sees into the future, at the same time
protecting his happy home. If that which labor creates and human hearts hold
precious some day goes up in flames you then, with all sincerity, will say FIRE
INSURANCE is not the most expensive investment the world has ever taken on,
but an absolute necessity.
