Man Held For Death of Guill.
Carrollton, Ga., July 1. —Carrollton
was to-day shocked by the arrest of Ed
Cheney, ticket agent of the Central
railway, on a warrant charging him
with the murder of J. L. Guill, depot
agent, who was mysteriously killed in
the depot last Thursday night. The
warrant was sworn out for Cheney's
arrest by Willis Guill, a son of the dead
man.
Both the Guilts and Mr. Cheney were
highly respected citizens of Carrollton.
I Cheney was rushed to Atlanta by
i Sheriff W. A. Garrett for safekeeping
in the Fulion county tower, leaving
here before it became generally known
that he had been arrested.
No one had suspected Cheney of the
murder.
Mr Cheney has been working under
Mr. Guill for a number of year3 and
was considered a close friend of the
murdered depot agent.
It is not definitely known on what ev
idence Cheney has been arrested or
what connection he is alleged to have
had with the killing of Guill.
Knee-Deep in June.
Fair month of Jnne, sweet month of
June! I’ll take my harp and punch a
tune from its old, ragged, rusty wires—
the hardest work of modern lyres!
In June Dame Nature’s at her best,
in all the wealth of verdure dressed,
with bright, red roses in her hair, and
yellow roses everywhere, and roses
pink and roses white—ah, then Dame
Nature is a sight! It’s hard for us to
realize that this bright girl with starry
eyes is she who pelted us with snow
and slush and sleet some weeks ago.
The termagant who ripped and swore
and shook the panes and slammed the
door, who filled our hearts with dread
and fears and froze our whiskers and
our ears, is sweet and soft and smiling
now, with the lilac blooms upon her
brow.
Oh, June, why can’t you always stay
and keep the old world looking gay?
Why must you be in such a rush? Why
can’t the roses always blush? Stay with
us, June, and beam and smile; take off
your things and stop awhile! Just put
your grip upon the stairs and place
your feet in yonder chairs and mane
yourself at home, my dear ; you'll always
find a welcome here!
But June, she whispers in reply,
“Alas ! time presses—I must fly ! I can
he but a transient guest; I mosey on at
Time’s behest. 1 If ow you love me
passing well, and think of all the
months I’m the belle. And so I am.
I know I’m smooth; the jaded soul of
man I soothe. I am the month that’s
safe and sane ; I bring all blessings in
my train I give the world the sweet
June bride, of all mortality the pride,
the fairest flower that ever irrew, old
as the earth and ever new. I give the
world the best she knows of beauty,
comfort and repose. I am a daisy and
a peach ; no wonder then that you be
seech Urn I shall stay for many moons
—you’d have each year a dozen Junes.
“But, ah, I know you too blamed
well,” sighsJune, that most entrancing
belle. “If I could stay, I 11 bet three
farms you’d soon grow weary of my
charms! You’d soon be saying, ‘Hully
gee! they take from human frames
the starch—give me the good old winds
of March.’ You’d soon grow weary of
the rose, of every spicy breeze that
blows, of azure skies and all the rest—
•’tis well I'm but a transient guest.’’
j Perhaps she’s right: so let her fly,
and all get ready for July.

Farmers’ Meeting on July 12.
As you have already been informed, I
have received a communication from the
secretary of the Department of Agri
cultural Extension stating that Coweta
county has been included in the itinera
ry of summer meetings this year, and
that there will be a meeting at the
court-house July 12, at 11 a. m. At this
meeting there will be several distin
guished gentlemen and professors from
the State College of Agriculture, Ath
ens. They are Dr. Hirlman, who will
lecture on “The Control of Hog Chol
era;’’ Dr. McHatton, who will lecture
on “The Control of Insects and Dis
eases of Truck Crops:” Prof. Starr, who
will lecture on “Improvement in the
Production of Farm Crops.”
This meeting will be very instructive,
and I urge every farmer in Coweta to
be present. You can come with the full
assurance of enjoying the meeting, and
you will leave with a better knowledge
of scientific farming. You will also be
1 showing an interest in the progressive
methods your County Chamber of
Commerce is promoting. “Twaddle!—
piffle!—rot! — bosh!” says the fellow
who has never tried diversifying. “Go
to it,” says the wise farmer who has.
There are many reasons why you should
attend this meeting, and we shall ex
pect you. J. H. Blackwell,
Farm Demonstration Agent.

All Babies Destined
to Great Achievement
To be born is to be great. For there
are possibilities in every tiny human in
fant. And for this
reason every one
should remember that
whatever is done to
aid the mother, to re
lieve hef of distresses
during her trying
months, will surely he
of marked benefit to
the child.
Among the sterling
aids is a splendid ex
ternal remedy known
as “Mother’s Friend.’
It is what is called an
I embrocation. It is ap
plied to the abdominal muscles, gently
rubbed in by your own hand guided
by your own mind. It makes the muscles
pliant, they expand quite naturally and the
effect upon the nerves is such that they ad
just themselves to the process of expansion
so that pain from this source is almost elimi
nated. Women who use “Mother’s Friend”
refer to the absence of morning sickness, they
are relieved of a great many minor dis
tresses, all apprehension disappears and those
peculiar nervous “fidgets” no longer disturb
the nights. It is well named “Mother's
Friend.” Get a bottle today of any drug
gist. Then at once write for a mo-:t enter
taining and instructive book for all pro spec,
live mothers. Address Hradfield Regulator
Co., 70j Lamar Bldg., Atlanta, Ga.
This book explains the physical action ot
'•Mother’s Friend,” tells why it enforces
strength to the muscles and relieves undue
Btrain. It also contains letters of experience
from many happy mothers. It is just such
a handy little book aa every woman will at
once recognize as just what she had always
wished to read—plain facts about herself.
The fx>ok is mailed free to any address.
Write for it today,
Mr. W. J. C pgin ia on the sick
this week.
Mrs. Arthur Phillips and children, of
Macon, are on an extended visit to the
former's mother, Mrs. Allen West.
School will open here the second Mon
day in July.

“Why won’t you buy something at
my table?” demanded the girl at. the
charity fair
“Because,” said the smooth-tongued
youth, “1 bu> only from homely Kiris.
They have so much harder time making
sales. ”
And he worked this right down the
line!
