COWETA DRUG & BOOK COMPANY NO CAUSE FOR ALARM. Sylacauga (Ain.) Novrs. When n certain bntnllion of drafted nion first fountl themselves ill the. front lines in Europe thoro was some confu sion in the ranks. The first blush of real warfare wns accompanied by undue excitement, disorganization and com plaint. Quick to seo that nil was not well with hii command, tho major, who nftprwnnla was awardcil a Distinguished Servlco CroBs for gallantry in notion, gathered his junior officers nbout him to talk tho mnttor over. “Now, boys,” ho told thorn, “wo’re in tho lines and linvo a job boforo us. There is nothing extraordinary nbout our situation, Thoro is nothing unoxpoctod nbout it, and nothing to got excited about. This is what wo’vo been train ing for. It’s merely whnt wo know wns coming. It wns inevitable. Wo planned for it, trained for it, and prepared to moot it. Now let’s roll up our sleovos and go to it.” And tiiey did. That mnjor’s remarks might well ap ply to those who are prone to got ox- cited and panic-stricken over tho coun try’s presont economic situation. Truo, prices are continuing thoir gradual pro coss of doilntion, and lioro and there cuts are bring ; announced in salaries. True, also, tho price of cotton la too low, and there is more or loss stringency in the money market. But there’s noth ing to got excited about. Economic re adjustment following tile world war was as inevitable as it was necessary. Far sighted business men have foreseen it for two years, nnd foresighted citizens havo prepared for it. It was heralded to tho four winds after tho armistico, and it wub officially inaugurated last spring whsta the Federal Resorvo banks began to curtail spoculativo loans nnd aid in deflating tho national currency. •Wo know it Wfts coming. Wo expected fiotliing else. And now that wo’ro bo- ginning to feel the effects of it is no reason to biceme panic-stricken ami con sign tho country to the demnition bow wows. After all, what’s tho matter ttitii (fid situation t No ono is starving. People are Btill dressed well nnd housed comfort ably. Tho farmer still rldos to town in his car, and 1ms ids barn nnd smoko- houso filled to overflowing. War thrift has taught him to make his own food stuff. And just because tlm dollar'has rogainod somo of its just value, or bo- cause some reckless citizens havo thrown to-the winds their recent profits in tho vain expectation that a fictitious pros perity would last forever, thoro is no reason why intelligent, mon Bhonld talk of panics nnd begin to hourd their sav ings in tho family sock, Tho prieo of cotton is too low. To Roll it at existing prices means a heavy- loss to tho farmer. But its presont price is practlenlly duo to Bouthorn liquida tion. Lot tho fnrmor hold on to ids cotton. Most of thorn are not forcod to soli. No ono is breaking his nock to get rid of ids livestock anil grain, nnd yet tho price of botli Jinn taken p tumble, Efforts to soil cotton boforo it goos to a lower lovol' results lit forcing it to a lower lovol boforo you enn soil. Oo- opornUon botwoon tho fnrmor and tho merchant nnd banker is what’s needed, nnd it is to tho intorost of oach to co operate. Economic readjustment naturally is accompanied by more or Iobb inconven ience nnd financial loss. Lot’s overlook tho inconvonionco ami take what losses are nocossary. It’s bettor in tho long run to onjoy a limited prosperity bnsod upon tho sound law of supply nnd do- rannd than to revel in a false prosperity that in tho ond could load to nothing but nntlonnl bankruptcy. Lot’s adjust oursolvos to tho read justment. Lot’s adapt our ways of liv ing to those nocossary changes. Thoro’s a job to do. Lot’s roll up our sloovos nnd go to it. KING SNAKE SLEEPS WITH BULL DOGS. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 27.—Tho famous motion picture of a snako crawling around a bird’s neat without bothoring tho tiny baby birds, which are commonly supposed to bo tho clioicost of all fooda for SnakoB, is equallod by nn Atlanta butcher who raiBOB white pit bull dogs. His registered thoroughbred fornalo hns a litter of puppieB two wooks old that sloop with a largo king snako overy night,, and tho mother dog cuddlos up the king snako with apparently Ah much affection as siio bcBtows on her offspring. Tho butcher keeps tho king snako in the market to catch tho rate, finding it far hotter than cats or rat torriore or rat traps, and tho snako nnd tho bull dog are tho host of friends. When the pup pies arrived and tho mother dog made a bod for them in tho bnsomont of tho markot, tile king snako found it n most onjoyablo placo to sloop. Tho dogs do not object to tho snako, TWO INCIDENTS. Morlwothor Vindicator. Two observant Groonylllo citizens made trips recently, oncli going to a different section of Ooorgin. Ono wont to nn adjoining county where tho farmers wore lilt harder by boll woovils that wo are nt homo. Tho people thoro wore clfOorful nnd thankful. They had no money, but onough hog nnd hominy to tldo them ovor to tho noxt crop. Tlio gontlomnn in question spout tho night nt a 'hum ble homo. Tho lionet of tho family soldi I hnvo no money, but enough to ent. My wife put lip enough cnmiod fruit to Inst tho family ilvo years. I havo mi orchard already bearing and young fruit trooB sot out. I havo milk, butter, syrup, potatoes, corn ami plenty to sus tain limn and boast. I am so thankful that I havo enough to oat. God la goqd to mo and I bollovo Ho will provide a way for mo to stand tho times. ’ ’ Tho othor gontlomnn wont to a town of S,000 people ,-in tho northern part of tho State. After supper ho cnllod up a drug store nnd asked for tho proprietor. Tho ntiBWor ovor tho ’phono wnB, “Wo nro just closing up to go to prayor- mooting. Mr. Jonos wont to tho bnrbor shop) perhaps yon may catch him thoro.” A ’phono mossngo to tho harbor Bhop brought tho samo mossngo, “Wo nro closing up to go to prayor-mcctlng. Mr. Jonos 1ms just loft for tho Iioubo of prnyor. Wo will open up after prayer- mooting. ’ ’ Every business houso of that town closod up and ovorybotly wont to prayor mooting, After sorvicos woro ovor tho drug Store null a fow of tho othor stores opened up, Those two incidents Speak for thorn- solves. Tlioy need no (loliitoont nt our hands. It would bo like Booking to whiten with tho fullor’s art tho snowy petals of tho'Illy. God Almighty will certainly koop His ubodo in tlioso two communities. A milkman in a country town wns brought boforo tho lineal court to an- Hwor a charge of adulteration. "You aro charged,” Bald tho magis trate, “with soiling adulterated milk. Hnvo you anything to snyt” "Well, your honor,” replied tho milk- ninn, “tho night boforo it was raining vory hard nnd tho only enuso I can give is tho cow must have got wot through. ’ ’ “Cnn you come nml help mo dean houso, Mnmlyt” “No’mi can’t como. I’s jlnod do ’Sociatlon ob do Folded Hands.” Wo "editors are at hoart a truthful bunch of follows.

IN YE OLDEN TIME Hoop skirts were worn by those who first asked the druggist for, anain- sisted on having, the gonuine Golden Medioal Discovery put up by Dr. Pieroe over fifty yehrs ago. Dress bos changed very much since then! l)ut Dr. Pierce’s medicines contain the same de pendable ingredients. They are standard today just as they were fifty years ago. Dr. Fierce’s Golden Medical Discovery for the stomach and blood cannot be surpassed by any remedy today. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip tion for weak women has never been equalled for the distressing a taints incident to woman- What others say: Columbus, Ga.—"For ai quarter of a century I have considered Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery one of my favorite remedies. When I was teaching Bchool I spent eight years in a malarial, swampy section, and to keep my system in a condi tion to ward off the malaria I used to take the ‘Golden Medical Discov ery.’ This tonic kept me in splendid health.”—Mrs. 0.
