The verses printed below were written by Sidney 1,tinier, tho well-known door gin poet, fifty years ago. Tho dishy re ferred to was Joseph dishy, editor of tlm Macon Telegraph at that time— That air same .Jones that-lived in Jones, Ho had this pint about him: He’d swear with a hundred sighs and groans That farmers must stop gittin' loans A"’ g>t along without ’em;—, Mint Linkers, wnrcliouBOmch .and sich Was fatt’nin’ on the planter, Ami Tennessy was rotten-rich A-rnlsIn' moat and corn—all which , Draw'll inoney to Atlanta. An' the only thing (says .Tones) to do Is to eat no meat that’s boughten, But tear up every T. O. U. An' plant nil corn an ’ swenr for truu To quit a raisin’ cotton. Thus spouted Jones twhar nil could hear, At court an’ other gntlicrin’s), An ’ thus kept spoutin ’ many a year, Proclaimin’ loudly fur an’ near Such fiddlesticks and blntherin's. But one all-fired sweatin’ day It happened when 1 was liouln’ My lower eorufioid, which it lny ’Longsido tho road that runs my way, Wlmr I can boc what’s goin’.

The mules they stopped about a rod From me and wont to feedin' ’liungside flic road, upon the sod, But Jones (which fie Imd tuck a “tod") Not kaowin', kept n-rendin ’. An' presently says lie: “Hit's true, Old dishy's head is level; Thar’s one tiling fanners all iiumt. do, To keep tlielrselvos from goin' lew Bnnkrplvy an’ the devil, “More coral More corn! must plant h'.-s ground, An' mustn't eat what’s boughten;— Next year they’ll do it, reasonin’ sound, (Ah' tut tun ’ll fetch bout a dollar a pound; i Thfir'loro, I'll plant all cotton." some pepper and tomato seeds.

Chamber of Commerce' ’Phone 45- will for Note CLUB WORK FOR THE MONTH— Hear Club Member: Below you fjiul information ami Suggestions carrying mil the month’s work, fher.e points carefully: We have come to the time when little chicks should have been hutched long past now. From now on our care will iio with developing those chicks to best advantage, for tlieir future performance ns layers this full and winter, and also for the full shows, licmcmlior not to feed tho little chicks for tit) to 70 hours after they are hatched, Their I!rut feed is to lie lino rolled oats, or crushed hard boiled eggs, gradually changing into commercial "baby chick" feed, with plenty of sour milk or elabbor. As tho chicks get older they should liavo a dry mush kept before thorn, Thu same mash thttt we recommend for laying liens may be usud, (with a little wheat bran add ed,) or the following may las made up ami fed necording to tiie formula: 30 lbs. wheat bran, 10 lbs. shorts, 10 lbs. meat scrap. This contains tlm necessary amount of protein to make bone and muscle—essential to proper chick develop ment. For best growth keep this mash boforo thorn all tho lime, feed lightly of baby chick feed night and morning, and keep fresh water ami sour milk before them to drink. Watch out for mites and lice this month. Keep mites down with kerosene oil, and lice with commercial powders or sodium florlde, which can be purchased at any drug store. Don’t forget tho two very essential tilings—plenty of slmde, and clean, fresh water. Sincerely yours, Lorinc .Collins, County Home Demonstration Agent. DRESDEN CLUB— This is tho tirst year tho ' Dresden school has had a sufficient number of club members to organize a club. They are doing splendid work, mid making plans to raise money for an oil stove, so they will be ready for cooking without depending on the stove to be brought to them each meeting. I have heard that money can be raised any time for tho school at Dresden.. Below is copy of tho miuutos of their last meet ing; ■“The Dresden Girls’ Demonstration Club held its regular meeting Thursday May 19. The meeting was called to order by the president. Minutes of last meeting read and approved. The girls answered to roll-call by telling what they had done since the Inst meeting. All of tiio girls Imd done some garden work, and -all who wore present at the last demonstration laid made loaf bread We discussed plans for our dub camp, Most of our club are planning to go, We talked about good bread, mid how to tell when bread is good.. The demon stration was ou variations of bread. Wo iimdo rolls,—Darker House rolls mid cin namon rolls, using currants in same. Wo practiced some dab songs nud yells. We were asked by the demonstration agent to write a composition on "Good Broad" by the next meeting, which n good subject Then we served some delightful rolls mid adjourned. “Martha Fincher, President. “Virginia Mitcham, Acting SeeV.’' DISCOVERING DISEASED TONSILS— Parents need not always wait, for ex amining physicians to Ire perfectly sure that a child is suffering from diseased tonsile or adenoids. Very often thore are actual symptoms of conditions which, if understood, will convince tho pnront tlmt, something wrong is present, and an Immediate examination by a doctor will show what it is, or will, on the other hand, show that tho parent is overnnx- imiH if the condition does not really exist. Hut if tho I’liild does not develop rap idly; if it is pale, underweight, delicate and “takes cold easily;’’ if it lias a tendency to drop its lower jaw, and to sit with its mouth open; and more par ticularly if it sleeps with nil upon mouth, It iH time to siiHpect that there is troubla in that child’s throat. Again, there may bo' onlnrged and tender glands of tho child’s neck, nnil if such glands nro left without attention tlioy may become tu berculous, thus endangering the health and tho very life of tho child. Diseased tonsils and ndonoid growths, which almost always accompany such tonsils, render any child having them mill'll more liable tu take diseases such ns measles, diphtheria, scarlet (over and similar ills, all of which carry a men sure of danger, and which it is much easier and-safer to prevent than it is to cure, In addition to these dangers, which are caused by dlsunqod tonsils mid.adenoids, serious trouble with the vital organs, such ns the lungs nnil kidneys, limy filial ly result if the tonsils and adenoids are not. removed. It is, therefore, the plain duty ofupvcry parent to be on the lookout for such a I'uiiilit Ion in their children, nnil, once It is suspected, immediate stops should ibo taken to hove it remedied. The opera tion Is simple and very hooii forgotten, while if it is not done the child's whole future may bo onilniigored. The causes of enlarged and diseased tonsils are nut altogether understood, Luc some doctors sny tile use of t-lio “paci fier,” which keeps tho child's mouth open after it PnUs asleep, dries the throat and these conditions follow. Oth er causes are said to bo breathing bud air, especially at night; general weak ness, caused by nml-nutritlon, or from anything that lowers tho child's bodily resistance. Hat whatever tho cause, it is n fact that in na examination made of tho Hc.ltool children in the United Stntcs somo 3,000,000 to 5,000,000 wore found to linvc diseased or enlarged tonsils or adciuAils, and one of this number may rondily be one of your own. Children of school ago who come in contact with groups of other children who may, in turn, linvo come in contact with disenscs of a more or less contagi ous nature, are particularly linblo to tnko contagious diseases, and this liabil ity iB greatly increased if there aro dis eased or enlarged tonsils or adenoids iresont. Of course, it is Impossible to nsttro protection from any contagions disease, no matter what precaution wo take, but it is a fact tlmt when a child has ills tonsils and adenoids removed lie lias been protected ns far ns possible, for there is no ono other measure that is regarded ns more necessary in protec ting and preserving the health of tile child. Annie L. Trnber, Red Cross Public Health Nurse. A CURE FOR WORRY. Everybody seems to he agreed it’s not hard work that breaks men down—it’s worry. How, then, slinn the worry be elimi nated? I will tell you the greatest source of worry: Unfinished jobs. Tiie man who is on top of his job all the time, who drives liis job instead of letting his - job drive him, seldom has anything to worry about. Take tiie case of tiie man who gets to tiie office nil hour late in the morning. He is just about an hour behind all day —worried every minute because ho is late for Ids appointments. Tiie extra effort necessary to get down on time would rid him of the source of moBt of his worries, But he won’t make tho effort and so lie pays the penalty. i know a man who iB making a failure of everything lie undertakes beenuso lie puts off,doing jobs unlil the pqtionco of those who depend on him is exhaust ed. At the last minute he sidetracks everything else for a few days nml does this one task in a very creditable way. In the meantime, while lie is so busy with this job, other tilings accumulate and they, too, aro finished behind sched ule. Ho is rpnstantly worried; everybody is on hin nock. At intervals of about three months lie lms a near-brenk-down and hies himself off for n week’s vacation, letting every thing go to pot. He can't get any real rest while ho is gone because lie is worried about tho pile of unfinished work on Iub office desk. His brnin is always boiling, not with constructive plans for increasing his bus iness, but with the petty details of unfin ished jobs. Ho claims that lie is “overworked,’’ that liis customers are “unreasonable,” that liis business is a “rotton” ono. Yet if ho would organize himself and Ids office to handle matters ns they conic up, lie could, in two weeks’ time, clean up liis desk. Once on top of liis job ho- eould stay tiioro and liis worries would ovnpornto like a five-ilollar bill in a meat market. Check up with your own experiences nnd observations. The best euro for worry is—work. Because she smoked a pipe a Now York woman was declared unfit to have tiie custody of a little grundcliild. At tlmt, though, wo liave known some mighty good women who smoked pipes. One, especially, wo recall, because we swiped her pipe once when we wore about knee- high to a duck nnd smoked it ourself. And when, shortly thereafter, she found ns with both foot in tho grave amt tho determination to crawl al) tho way in if wo had strength enough, she iliiln’t scold or tell on us, but set about bring ing uh round again. She was old and wrinkled and wore dresses down to her shoe-tops, and thought tiie word “shim my” onglitn't to bo mentioned in polite company, but outside of that she was all right.—Johnny Spencer, in Macon Tel egraph. The following letter from n club girl shows the true club spirit: “Dear Miss Collins; I am getting on with my work fine. I have planted WHAT THE U. S. A. PRODUCES. Nntnrnl resources are tiie basis Of na tional prosperity. " Few of ns realize how great is the basic wealth of the United States, ns compared to other antioiiB of tho world. After rending tho following figures, which liave been widely quoted, no one can doubt that tho future of this coun try is guaranteed. The United States, with only 6 per cont of tlio world’s population and ' per cent, of tho world’s land, produces 56 per cent, of tho world’s supply of paper. 20 per cent, of tiie world’s supply of gold. 25 per cent, of tiie world’s supply of wheat. 40 per cont. of the world’s 'supply of iron nnd steel. 40 per cent, of tho world’s supply of lead. 40 per cent, of the world's supply of silver. 50 per cent, of the world’s supply of zinc. 52 per cent of tlio world’s supply of couhr 60 per cent, of the world’s supply of aluminum. 60 per cent of the world’s supply of copper. * f 00 per cent, of the world’s supply of cotton. 06 per cent, of tiie world’s supply at oil. 75 per cent of the world’s supply of corn. 85 per cent, of the world’s supply of nutomohilcs. Grace—“Don’t tell anybody for the world. See this ringt George slipped it ou my finger lost night." Ethel—“Yes, it’s nice looking, but it will Jiinke a black circle round your finger before you’ve worn it a week. It did on mine.” MANY LIKE THIS IN NEWNAN Similar Casea Being Published In i Each Issue. The following case is but one of many occurring daily in Newman. It is an easy matter to verify it. You cannot ask for better proof. Louis Donegau, grocer, 140 E. Broad St., Newnan, says: "I am nearly seventy-one years of age anu my kidneys are in fine shape; I give Doan’s Kidney Pills the credit loi this. Several years ago I suffered considerably with my kidneys. The seoretions were highly colored and contained a biick-dust-llko sediment and I had to get up often at night to pass them. The muscles of my back were all draiyn up, sore and still. Sharp knife-like pains would catch me In my back when I stooped over. started using Doan’s Kidney Pills and in a short time they have had me feeling better and finally Doan’s entirely cured me. The cure has lasted.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t' simply' ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Donegan -had. Foster-Milburn Co,. :«rs., Bullalo, N. Y.
