the great
family medicine
Thedford’s Black-Draught has
saved doctors’ bills for more than
sixty years. For the common fam
ily ailments, such as constipation,
indigestion, hard colds, bowel com
plaints. chills and fever, bilious
ness. headaches and other like
complaints no other medicine is
necessary. It invigorates and reg
ulates the liver, assists digestion,
stimulates action of the kidneys,
purines the blood, and purges the
bowels of foul accumulations. It
cures liver complaint, indigestion,
soll r stomach, dizziness, chills,
rheumatic pains, sideache, back
ache, kidney troubles, constipation,
diarrhoea, biliousness, piles, hard
colds and headache. Every drug
gist has Thedford’s Black-Draught
in 25 cent packages and in mam
moth size for 81.00. Never accept
a substitute. Insist on having the
original made by the Chattanooga
Medicine Company.
I believe Thedford’s Black-Draught
is the best medicine on earth. It is
good for any and everything. 1 have
a family of twelve children, and for
four years l have kept them on foot
and healthy with no doctor but Black-
Draught. A. J. GREEN, Illewara, La.

“Well, that’s the wrong thing
to do.” He had just folded up a
copy of the News and stuck it in
his coat pocket. He was seated
in front of the Arlington and was
talking to an old acquaintance
whom he had not seen for some
time, judging from the manner in
which they greeted each other be
fore they seated themselves.
“What’s wrong now, old man?’’
asked the man who was listening.
‘‘Why, I see the city fathers of
this beautiful and progressive lit
tle city are suggesting the sale of
a piece of property out near the
limits of the town that is known
as Walker Park. I see by the
paper here that the tract of land
contains fifty acres and is covered
over with shade trees of various
descriptions- I do not belong
here in the south, having been
born and reared on the other side
of the line. I have been in every
city of any consequence in Amer
ica. I, therefore, know what
shade trees, and fresh air and pub
lic parks mean, and for, a city to
think of selling a plot of grounc
that contains fifty acres, covered
*vith beautiful shade trees, to be
cleared up and converted into
residence section, makes me feel
bad, to say the least. Now, if
this town never expected to be
any larger than it is at present, it
would be all right to sell that
piece of land, but judging from
her past few years growth, it will
not be very long until Gainesville
will be one of the leading cities of
the south. Then she will see the
need of shade and fresh air.
“What would Cincinnati, New
York, Philadelphia, Chicago or
any of the larger cities in the
north, east or west give for fifty
acres of shade in their midst?
Why, it would bankrupt an ordi
nary bank to pay the price. Fresh
air and shade is a bigger problem
in the north than the negro ques
tion is down here in the south.
“Yes, the car line and the park
out at the river are all right and
up-to-date. They’ll do for the
present. But, what I’m speaking
of is the future. After thay get
that big dam out there finished
and a number of smaller factories
are built here in Gainesville and
the population begins to go up
toward the fifteen thousand mark,
Lhen is when they will need the
Darke and fresh air and shade a
;dace where the poorer people can
walk out and not have to pay car
-’are. As I said to start vtith. this
is not my home. I am just here
; ? or a breathing spell. I love
Gainesville and her good people
and of course take an interest *in
ier growth and development. My
advice to the city council
uo sell this park but hold
The city will need
and caught the car for the river.
.“A city that has got the pluck
and energy to do what Gainesville
has done in less than three months
has the right to be called great
and her people must necessarily
be noble. I was here a few days
after that terrible cyclone visited
vour citv, and I thought that it
would take at least ten years for
her to get over that awful
calamity. But I find that I was
mistaken.”
The speaker was a well-known
traveling salesman, and has oc
casion to visit Gainesville every
few months for the purpose of
selling goods. I have known him
for several years, and know that
he is a close observer and means
what he says. I ran across him
at the depot while he was waiting
for the train to take him north
ward. Being asked what, he
thought of the present situation,
he said:
“Look out over the hill yonder!
Those new houses speak for them
selves ! Listen to the music of
the hammer and saw! Everything
and everybody seem to be on the
move. Talk about yankee pluck
and push, but Gainesville has set
a new pace along this line! And
they tell methat the Pacolet peo
ple are going right ahead rebuild
ing the cottages that were de
stroyed at New Holland, and that
the Gainesville cotton mill will be
running before many months go
by. It’s remarkable. Such push will
result in Gainesville being a great
place before many years pass. I
expect to be back through here be
fore fall. I will then see what
other wonderful things your city
has acomplished. There’s my
train. I’ll look you up on my
next trip. So long.”

Revival Services.

members yesterday evening at the First
Baptist church.
Rev. Otwell and his congregation are
working hard to rebuild their bouse
of worship, and the good people of our
city should help them in their noble

Pine and Myrtle streets. Work will
commence on the new edifice as soon
as the necessarry arrangements can be
made.
Reunion at Buford.
The reunion of the forty-second and
forty-third regiments at Buford on last
Thursday proved a success in every re
spect. Several eloquent and patriotic
addresses were made and the day was
highly enjoyed by the old veterans.
A strange coincidence was that last
Thursday was the anniversary of the
battle of Manassas forty-two years ago
and the battle of Atlanta thirty-nine
years ago. The good people of Buford
furnished th* veterans and their friends
with an abundance to eat. Several
Gainesville veterans attended the re
union.
