A LFTTER FROM IDAHO
Wardner, Idaho, April 1—To
our relatives and friends in Mur¬
ray county Ga.
We left Chattanooga at 9:80
p. m. and the next morning at
6 o’clock changed cars at Dans
ville, Ky., which was a very cold
place—considering we were still
in the sweet sunny south, and
after a five minutes stop, pulled
out and spent Wednesday trav¬
eling from Dansville to St. Lou¬
is, Mo., arriving there at 7
o’clock. Finding we had two
hours to wait we decided to spend
part of the time scrubbing up,
so we went into the big dressing
room of the union depot and
found many others occupied in
the same way. When we return¬
ed to the waiting room we look¬
ed considerably transformed and
after investing in postals and
mailing a few to the dear ones
left behind us and seeing the
sights about the depot, we board¬
ed our train bound for Billings
and Missoula, via Kannas city.
Having gotton more used to
the train by this time we went
to bed and were soon a sleep, not
waking until 7 next morning.
About 9 o’clock Thursday morn¬
ing we eat breakfast at Kansas
Gity and enjoyed it to the tune
of five dollars. Not having much
time we did not see much of
Kansas city but we saw' the big
Mississippi and Missoury rivers
of which we had heard so much.
From Kansas city we traveled
through the great valley of the
Missouri river where fat cattle
and fine horses were grazing on
green pastures.
We crossed diagonally through
the state of Nebraska, winch
must be a fine corn country from
the looks of the stalks in the
fields and the loads and loads of
fine corn being hauled to the
ware houses near the railroad.
From here we crossed over the
corner of South Dakota and
through the Black Hills which
are famous for their gold.
Our next important stop was
at Billings, Mom,., where we
were switched off the Burlington
train and our sleeper coupleu on
to the Northern Pacific train.
We passed through miles of In¬
dian reservation and saw many
fine Indian schools and several of
Uncle Sam’s educated Indians
with their gay colors on, sitting
in front of their wigwams, look¬
ing about as iguorant as the edu¬
cated negro of the south This
is the Crow reservation. Mon¬
tana is a great stock country.
When one passes through and
sees the thousands and thou
sands of cattle you would wonder
who eats so much beet. We
would occasionally see many hun
clreds in one heard and the fat
est we ever saw'. As we passed
through part of Montana in the
night we did not see all of this
wonderful state.
We arrived at Missoula at 7
o’clock Saturday morning and as
we got up late we did not have
time to eat breakfast and to our
dismay we only had time to
climb on our other train and as
our lunch was all gone we were
doomed to wait until 11:510 where
they sthpped for lunch.
From Missoula we began to
climb the mountains—the Bitter
Root range of the great Rockies.
We had on a double-header most
of the time and each engine
would make about three like the
little ones on the Lv & N. We
wound around and around, each
time rising a little higher, some¬
times seeing two tracks above
us, then we wculd see one above
and one below us, then we could
see two below, then we would go
straight through the mountain
and climb a higher peak on the
other side, sometimes crossing
from one mountain to another on
a trestle and then climb again.
We crossed over the summit
about 2 o’clock and the descent
was more wonderful than the
ascent. We all stood on the
back platforn in order to get a
good view and w r e sure did enjoy
the beautiful scenery. We were
so high that the ground was eov-
ered two feet deep with snow.
We arrived in Wallace at four
o’clock and as we were too late
to catch a train for Wardner that
evening we rode over in a Tally
ho, and as it is thirteen miles it
took us about two hours to make
the trip. When we got to our
destination we found our uncle
at home with a hot supper wait¬
ing for us, and what was still
better, plenty of hot water for
everyone a bath. If one ever
appreciates a hath tub it is after
having rode three thousand miles
in a tram.
We were much surprised to
find Spring nearly as for advanc¬
ed here as in North Georgia.
We started to school on Mon¬
day after our arrival. We have
a fine graded school and the best
teachers money can hire. Eve¬
rything is free, even the books
and a free school library. All
that is requiied of the pupil is
hard study, but that is certainly
required as they have laws which
force all between the ages of 8
and 18 to go to school.
We have fine vegetables here
and more different kinds than is
raised 111 North Ga., and the fin¬
est potatoes we ever saw.
Most of the people here devote
their time to mining. We are
in the midst of the greatest lead
mines in the world. This coun¬
try produces one-third of the lead
of the world, and the finest white
pine forest in the world is in
North Idaho.
Wardner and Kellogg are two
towns in one and nestled between
two high mountains.
Having been here two weeks
and seeing the sights, we think
Wardner a grand place, still we
love the hills of dear old Geor¬
gia, where our father and moth¬
er lies beneath the sod the best.

This terrible calamity often
happens because a careless boat¬
man ignores the river’s warnings
growing ripples and faster cur¬

MARRIED IN DALTON,
A Murray Couple Married in The
Street.
JuBt as Rev. H. D. Keith, tax
receiver of Whitfield county,
drove into town from a long,
tiresome journey in the country
Sunday afternoon, a handsome
young couple, Charlie Hayes and
Miss Bertha Bryant, living in
Murray county, halted at his gate
and requested to be married.
“Show me your license, tell
me your age and give me your
address. ”
“We scarcely have time,
Brother Keith,” said the some¬
what nervous and anxious young
groom, “for heaven’s sake if you
are going to do anything, doit
now and right quick,”
Mr. Keith was hurried by these
remarks and without, as much as
requiring the young couple to
alight from their vehicle and en¬
ter the house, he spoke the words
wh’ch made them man and wife
while they sat in the buggy. In
less time than it takes to tell it,
the ceremony was over and the
happy young folks gone.—Dalton

Children especially like Ken¬
nedy’s Laxative Cough Syrup as
it tastes nearly as good as maple
sugar. It not only heals irrita¬
tion and allays inflammation,
thereby stopping the cough, but
it also moves the bowels gently
and in that way drives the cold
from the system. It contains no
opiates. Sold by S. H. Kelly.

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.
You need a sufficient amount of
good wholesome food and more than
tills you need to fully digest it.
Else you can’t gain strength, nor
can you. strengthen your stomach if
it is weak.
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat a suffic¬
ient amount of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can’t do it,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol di¬
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help it by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.
Sold by S. H. KELLY.
Our Guarantee
Go to your druggist today, and
purchase a dollar bottle, and if you
can honestly say, that you did not
receive any benefits from it, after
using the entire bottle, the drug¬
gist will refund your money to you
without question or delay.
We will pay the druggist the price
of the bottle purchased by you.
This offer applies to the largu
bottle only and to but one in %
family.
We could not afford to make sue*
an offer, unless we positively knew
what Kodol will do for you.
It would bankrupt us.
The dollar bottle contains 254 time!
as much as the fifty cent bottle.
Kodol is made at the laboratories
of E. C. DeWitt & Co., Chicago.
MONEY TO LEND.
Fiist to the fellow who
keeps his accounts in this
Bank.
Second a borrower who
can make a good bankable
paper can always get the
“DOUGII.”
Any one who has money to
deposit can know it is safe in
the Bank of Chatsvvorth, for
the depositors have a claim on
the assets of the Bank and
that is all any Bank' can offer
except the Bank of Chats
worth. The Bank of Chats
worth INSURES YOUR
MONEY FREE TO YOU.
That is, if the Bank should
blow away, the directors all
drop dead, the money all be
stolen, why, all the depositors
would have to do is to send
their pass-books to Atlanta
and get the CASH for every
cent. No Court, no suit, no
waiting, no excuse, but every
cent NOW. The Cashier
will show and prove this IN¬
SURANCE to you. There¬
fore, put your money in the
Bank of Chatsworth— thats
all, then go home and sleep
like a babe.
If your house is insured and
it gets burned you get cash.
If it is not insured and burns
you get ashes. Why on earth
a man will insure his life, his
house, his cotton, and not put
his hard earned money where
it is insured is simply amaz¬
ing.

ten barger is very ill with pneu¬
monia fever.
Misses Minnie, Bulah, Claud
and Maud McOamy were horse
bacK riding Saturday afternoon.
To Fort Mountain.
Speak up Fort and tell us
Why that you were built
Of all the battles fought
And if any blood was spilt?
Did De Soto m his
Search for gold,
Build you Fort to gard
The wealth that is yet untold?
Awake! thou that sleep
In the mighty deep
Gome forth! like Jona of old
And tell us who built
The Fort and when in
Old Georgia’s hidden gold?
Did some enemy
Attempt to drive you
From the land
And forced you there
Onset, to defy with a strong
And mighty hand?
Can you tell us of
The battles fought
And all the victories wrought
And the watery graves that
You so dearly bought?
No no sleep and take thy rest,
For now you find the
Golden grains where then
It was a wilderness.
Now we have the cottage
And many a prayerful home.
Where then it was the wigwam
And idoly he dug some.
Four eenturios now have most
elapsed
Since you built the Fort perhaps,
Wave not the Spanish flag
That you sought to erect,
But the Stars and Stripes
That was then unferled
Is honored now in all the world
And praised by every tribe and
sect.
