The publication of the Columbia
Sentinel. Thomas E. Watson’s news
paper, is probably a thing of the
past. For many years it was one of
the most popular newspaper publica
tions issued, and had thousands of
subscribers, who believed so implic
itly in thdir “Chief” that every word
he wrote was treasured in their
hearts. In his work, Mr Watson was
assisted by Mrs. Alice Lytle and Mr.
Grover E. Edmondson, and they en
deavored to carry on the work after
his death but without the personality
of the “Chief/ 1 the paper was a
failure, and had to be discontinued;
and now Mrs. Lytle and Mr. Edmond
son, through the help of Georgia
congressmen and senators, have se
cured government jobs in Washing
ton, and are making that city their
home.
The words of the Master, when
He said, “and a little child shall lead
them,” have proven true in the life
of Mike Cusamano, an Italian known
as the king of bootleggers in New
York City. Many of his companions
in the illegal traffic were placed be
hind the bars, but he continued his
nefarious business, but wher. his lit
tle daughter wrote him from the old
country that his reputation as a
bootlegger'had reached his old home,
ana that her playmates passed her
on the streets and scorned her—that
made a difference. She wrote him
that she was unhappy because he
was called a bootlegger, so Mike
has turned his wealth into cash—
nearly a million dollars some say—
.-and sailed for his native town of
iCinegst, Italy, “to be the richest
man in town and to make my daugh
ter happy.” How much sorrow in
this old world would be dispelled if
every whiskey drinker and every
bootlegger realized the unhappiness
that is caused the little children in
the home through the use of the vile
stuff.
things Needed to make a
GOOD TOWN.
I met a, nice locking man down on
'the city dock this morning and con
versed with him. He seemed to be an
intelligent man and decided I could
get some copy out of him. With this
in view l asked him what kind of a
town he would like to live in—if he
had his choice. Here is the boiled
down essence of what he replied:
A moral town.
A town where a woman could walk
the entire length of Main street and
feel that men she passes respect
womanhood.
A town where every man is pat
riotic and shows it by keeping his
premises neat and clean
A town where a good public library
is well patronized.
A town whose churches are
well attended and where the pastors
are reasonably paid.
A town where each citizen is made
to feel that he is needed in every
movement of importance, no matter
what his financial standing.
A town where the so-called polit
ticians are merely men chosen from
the ranks, seeking to help the
community with no thoughts of self
ish interests.
A town that makes its money at
home and spends it there.
A town whose citizens never say
'‘they’’ but always “us.”
A town that has a public play
ground for children and a comfort
station, kept clean for ladies—also
one for men, likewise sanitary.
A town with faith in itself and
its fellows, with a future and a vim
to make the dreams come true.
A town that grows without knock,
ing the neighboring town.
A courteous town, one that pleases
strangers and gives them a pleasant
reminder of southern hospitality.
A regular go-getter town with a
vision with work to do and a place in
the harness for me.
He was a nice old gentleman and
I liked him, but he was only half tell,
ing me what kind of a tcwa he would
choose fpr a home when 1 suddenly
left him to pdt into prir. wat he bad
already said. Senas to me this kind of
a town is my kind ol a town, too. and
while we sh on the .uhject, isn’t it
your idea pf a good town likewise?

News ’dispatches that the Muaeogee
county grand jury last week recom
mended the adoption of the Austra
lain ballot systom in all electi ins.
A great many counties in Georgia
have already adopted this system
which is a state law but left optional
with the counties upon the recom
mendation of grand juries.
Those that have adopted it—the
true emblem Marked Australian ball
ot or one closely askin to it —have
found it most satisfactory. It pei-mits
a voter to cast his ballot with
absolute intelligence, without
confusion
It assures honesty in voting, and
prevents as much as possible ballot
box stiffing, or other corrption in
the actu! polling feature of an elect
ion.
It is hoped that the Australian
system will become universal in
Georgia.
In this connection it is timely to
say the great credit for getting an
Australian ballot law enacted in
Georgia is due to the splendid effort
of Senator Jones, of Trcup, who
served in He introduced
the bill, and then stayed behind it
with, unconquerable tenacity until
his measure had become a law
Representative Neill, of Musco
gee, had previously introduced an
Australian ballot bill, however—

THE OLD SOCK BANK.
Now and then we hear of some
one who still uses a trunk or an old
sock for depositing their earnings
of alifetime. These reports usually
come after a burglar has visited the
home and removed the cash and left
the miser a pauper.
A recent news item told of an oc
currence in Heard county which is
typical of the practices of early
days when banks were few and re
mote. Now that hanks are operated
In practically every community, of
ficered by reliable men and backed
by the state and bederal govern
ment, it is Inexcusasble on the part
of anyone to harbor their earnings
in unsafe places. Here is an account
of the Heard county incident:
“J. P. Shellnut, one of the oldest
citizens of Heard county, has had
SIO,BOO stolen from him. He had an
iron box in his trunk where he kept
his money. Sunday, he went to count
it and the bottom had been taken
out and no money was to be found.
Mr. Shellnut is a man who does not
believe in keeping his money in
banks. The money was the savings

ITCHING ECZEMA
DRIED RIGHT UP
BY THIS SULPHUR
Any breaking out of the skin, even
fiery, itching eczema, can be quickly
overcome by applying a little Mentho-
Sulphur, says a noted skin specialist.
Because of its germ destroying proper
ties, this sulphur preparation instantly
brings ease from skin irritation, soothes
and heals the eczema right up and
leaves the skin clear and smooth.
It seldom fails to relieve the torment
and disfigurement. Sufferers from skin
trouble should get a little jar of Rowles
Mentho-Sulphur from any good drug
gist and use it like a cold cream.

BE PRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR DARK
Try Grandmother'* Old Favorite
Recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly com
pounded, brings back the natural color
and lustre to the hair when faded,
streaked or gray. Years ago the only
way to get this mixture was to make
it at home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
phur Compound,” you will get a large
bottle of this famous old recipe, im
proved by the addition of other in
gredients, at a small dost.
Don’t stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally and
evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at a
time; by morning the gray hair disap
pears, and after another application or
two, your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive.

they become overworked, get sluggish,
clog up and cause all sorts of distress,
particularly backache and misery in the
kidney region, rheumatic twinges, severe
headaches, acid stomach, constipation,
torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and
urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren’t acting right, or if bladder
bothers yoif, begin drinking lots of good
water ar.d also get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;,
take a tablcspoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys may then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for years ft>
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the'system sA that they' Vio”
longer irritate, thus often relieving blad
der disorders.

water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, to help Iceop
the kidneys and urinary organs clean,
thus often avoiding Serious kidney tfis

a year.
