STARR OLDER BUT STRONGER To be healthy at seventy, prepare at forty, is sound advice, because in the strength of middle life we too often forget that neglected colds, or careless treat ment of slight aches and pains, simply undermine strength and bring chronic weakness for later yeprs.

To the voters of Coweta county When I tnm unced my candidacy for the office of County Commissioner from the First road district l enjoyed the hope of meeting personally every voter in the county. It now seems that this will be impossible. I want the support of every voter who believes, with me, in good roads, and the economic admin istration of county affairs, and take this method of usking each and everyone for their support. Before entering the race I determined that if I should be honored by election to this office that I would give to tho discharge of its duties all the time that it requires, and my very beBt judgment. It you will elect me 1 shall bold the office as a trust, looking always to the best interests of the county. W. H. Mashburn, Senoia, "Ga., March 15. Communicate.!. A Word of Sympathy. Mr. E. J. Lovern’s relatives will please accept my sympathy in their be reavement. A good man is gone. P. M. Waltom tauqua managements as superior to Bryan, LaFollette, or Dolliv»r. Dr. Jas. Buckley says: “The great est address I have heard lin twenty years, and the highest type of Southern oratory to which I have ever listened was delivered by Ex-Gov. R. B. Glenn.” The New York Dispatch says: “Not since the days ‘of John B. Gough has the equal of Gov. Glenn been heard in New York.” The North American, Burlington, N. J., quotes the following from Gov. Glenn: “We have sworn in the South to save the bodies, minds and souls of the boys and girls of the South. That’s the reason the South’s going dry.” The Lincoln Chautauqua says: "Gov. Glenn held an applauding audience of between five and six thousand people by the magic of his voice. At one time handclapping was insufficient, and shouts were heard from many parts of the large audience. It is doubtful if any speaker ever made such a profound impression upon his hearers.” Dishonesty is a bad policy, because the dishonest man finds humanity such a suspicious lot. State or Ohio.
