WHATEVER...
may have been our predelic-
tionsjwith regard to soliciting
business, we believe it is no
longer considered a violation
of banking ethics to ask for
that which we would like .to
have, and acting on that the
ory that what is greatly worth
having is certainly v^orth ask
ing for, the
Home Savings' BanK,
MACON, GA.,
is better prepared than ever
to handle the business of the
people and solicits jour ac
count, promising all the cour
tesies that are extended by an
obliging and carefully ‘con
ducted banking house.
Loans negotiated on improved farms
at lowest market rates, and on most lib'
oral terms.

Fevered Breast, Old. Sores, Insect Bite
or Sting, Ringworm or Tetter, that Mrs
Pope’s Mullen Salve would not
cure, but so far we have been agreeably
disappointed. The verdict of all who
have used it is that it’s the one quick,
absolute and perfect healer. Nothing on
earth like it. Nothing sensational
fakey about it^ It stands on its merit
It is put up in a neat and pretty pack
age. tJse it. Your money back if you

not have it in stock,send us 60 cents and

Memorial to Confederate Woman
hood.
We cordially commend to our
readers the following extraot from
the excellent memorial address
delivered at Perry last week by
Hon. C. G. Gray of Fort Valley.
In the city of Athens, Geor
gia, the Daughters of the Confed
eracy have erected by their own
efforts a handsome three-story
arick building in connection with
our State Normal School,at a cost
of $15,000.00, which is to used as
home for daughters and grand
daughters of the confederacy while
at college preparing themselves to
teach in our publio schools. This
iuilding makes a comfortable
home for sixty girls, and has been
named the Winnie Davis Hall to
memorialize that sweet daughter
of the Confederacy, and to repre
sent confederate womanhood. Now
it does seem that in view of the
fact that the men of the south
have so long neglected to pay any
substantial tribute to the hero
ines of the Civil War, that it
would be most appropriate for
veterans and sons of veterans of
the south to make an anuual con
tribution for the support of the
sixty girls that live in that house,
and thus honor the memory of
those dear women who shared the
privations and sorrows of war
with our dead comrades. As
these fair daughters come with
their flowers to honor the memo
ry of their fathers, let each of us
come with at least one dollar and
place it in their hands to help ed
ucate the Winnie Davis girls as a
living memorial to our mothers.
If 6,000 Georgians will give them
one dollar each anntumy, sixty
daughters of the Confederacy will
be educated every year with that
contribution.
Now let the men"of grand old
Houston, so famous in war, so no
ted tor patriotism in the past, so
true to the democracy of today,
and so generous and’ chivalrous
in every movement that is moral,
mental, patriotic or religious,
head the brigade of 6,000 with a
company of at least 100 men who
will pay $1.00 each on the 26th of
April as longjas they live,and thus
erect a monument in mind, power
and influence to Confederate wo
manhood that will perpetuate it
self, and unlike the flowers, will
never fade or die, but will live on
from mind to mind from heart
to heart, blessing and multiply
ing blessings for the children of
men through all the generations
to come.”
