In ooiupany with County School;
Coounissioner Geo. W. Smith and
Mr. John H. Allen of Oak Grove,
the Home Journal editor attended
the annual reunion of Dooly county
veterans at XJnadiila last Saturday.
It is not our purpose to attempt a
report of the meeting, but merely to
give a general idea of its soope.
Resides the large number who
went by private conveyance, there
were 12|coach-loads from below on
the G, S. & F. shoofly, a few from
above on the noon train, the aggre
gate being between 8,000 and 4,000
in attendance.
The assemblage was in a large
grove near the sohool building, i
There was speaking during the
morning, a magnificent and abund
ant dinner, with delicious barbecued
meats as the chief feature, This
dinner covered 1,800 square feet of
table space, and was much more
than enough to feed the crowd.
The boys’ oornet band drum corps
of the Georgia Industrial Home at
Macon furnished excellent music; re
markable for boys so young.
The reunion| meeting was held in
the school building from 2:30 to
3:30 p, in.
No crowd and dinner of suoh pro
portions was ever better managed,
no disturbing incident occurring
under the observation of. thi^,,writer.
There were visitors from all the
neighboring counties, with fuily lOfl
Houston citizens present. Visitors
from Houston were acoordcd espe
cial hospitality, there being so many
former Houstonians (now citizens of
Dooly, and we are glad to note that
they are all in the front rank of
progress.
We noted only three of these,
however, now in business-in Unadil-
la: Mr. S. L. Speight, merchandise;
Messrs. J. A. and D. A. King, lum
ber manufacturing. The Messrs.
King have a planing mill that is
perfect in its equipment, and we are
glad to note that these young men,
natives of Houston county, arb pros
pering in good shape.
This writer was so interested in
the general features of the occasion,
and so delighted with the cordial
personal hospitality extended that
no effort was made to secure any in
formation as to program details.
The reunion was a success in ev
ery feature.

Brutally Tortured.
A case came to light that for
persistent and unmerciful torture
has perhaps never been equaled.

“For 15 years I endured insuffer
able pain from Rheumatism and
pothing relieved me though I tried
everything known. I came across
Electric Bitters and it’s the great

trouble. A few bottles bf it cdfn
pletely Relieved and cured me.’
Just as good for liver and kidney
By Joe Bedgo,
We had a nioe rain yesterday af
ternoon and all is lovely f||d re
freshed this morning.
In conversation this morning with
Mr. Joe Q, Ellis, who is a model far
mer and a close observer, says that
where cotton has been properly cul
tivated and with gopd seasons, there
is hope for a fair cotton crop. But
will here say that I have been
about some, and observed that crops
are spotted and will have to “get a
hump on” to make a crop.

T. H. Rentz and S. F. Bivins went

Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhoea.
“About six years ago for the
first time in my life I had a sud
den and severe attack of diar
rhoea,” says Mrs. Alioe Miller of
Morgan, Texas.“I got tempo
rary relief, but .it came back again
and again, and for six long years
I have suffered nmre misery and
agbiiy, than I can tell. It was
worse than death. My husband
spent hundreds of dollars for phy
sicians’ prescriptions and treat
ment without avail. Finally we
moved to Bosque county, our
present home, and one day I hap
pened to see an adverttsement of
Chamberlain’s Colio, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy with a testi
monial ot a man who had been
cured by it. The case was so
similar to my own that I conclud
ed to try the remedy. The result
was wonderful. I could
realize that I was well again,
or.
believe it could,be so after hav
ing suffered so long, but that
one. bottle of medioine, costing
” For
but a few cents, cured mb. 1
