DOUGLAS COUNTY SENTINEL, DOUGL AS VILLE, GEORGIA
In Memorium
Esquire J. M Whitley was
born Nov. 12, 1£5' > , and at the
age of 17 years joined the Bap
tist church and ever since tried
to live as near like God as he
k tew how. In 1876 was marrii d
to Miss Alice Hooker ana was a
most devoted husband and fath
er.
Oh, weeping wife and children,
we know it is hard to give him
up, but God is the ruler of the
uni verse and does all things weli.
We know he is at rest with God
and the angels above, so we
must hope and pray that when
our work here is done we may be
so fit to join' him in Heaven,
where there will be no more
weeping nor sorrow.
We think the dear children
are worthy of praise, for the
father has reared them to be
kind and obedient and we hope
they will continue to be so.
We know there is no other that
fill the place of father and there
is a vacant place in the h6me, in
the church and among friends,
but there is one more jewel
gathered in Heaven. So dear
mourners this is a great comfort
to U3 after all.
The darling husband and father lies so
still.
With quiet hands and closed eyes.
It cannot be it is his will
To let the bright hourfcslip away.
Forsaking all his earthly work
It is a strange and sad surprise.
The darling husband and father sleep3
so deep.
He does not list to call,
He does not hear his wife and children
weep,
Nor hea>* the happy robbins sing,
He takes no heed of anything.
We cannot wake him up at all.
The darling husband and father s eeps
so long.
The day and night to him are one.
No eyening prayer or morning song
Or ttippingfeet around the home.
A kind and gentle voice is stilled.
His labor here is done.
Oh, husband and father still andcold,
Fairer than'all the fair you lie
This last hour in the dear home fold,
And then your couch a low green
bed
With sweet flowers strewn above your
head.
Oh* darling husband and father,
good by, good by.

Life
Was a
Misery
Mrs. F. M. Jones, of
Palmer, Okla,, writes:
“ From the time t en
tered into womanhood
... I looked with dread
from one month to the
next. I suffered with my
back and bearing-down
pain, until life to me was
a misery. I would think
I could not endure the
pain any longer, and I
gradually got worse. . i
Nothing seemed to help
me until, one day, . «. >
I decided to
TAKE
The Woman’s Tonic
“I took four bottles,”
Mrs. Jones goes on to
Bay, “and was not only
greatly relieved, but can'
truthfully say that I have
not a pain. . .
" It has now been two
years since I tookCardui,
and I am still in good
health. . . I would ad
vise any woman or girl
to use Cardui who Is a
" sufferer from any female
trouble.”
If yousufferpain caused
from womanly trouble, or
if you feel the need of a
good strengthening tonic
fo build up your run-down
system, take the advice
of Mrs. Jones. Try Car
dui. It helped her. We
believe it will help you.

feel like the same boy either, for
I am gaining and feeling better
everv day,”
“He has had a bad form of
stomach trouble for the past
three years,” continued Mrs.
Campbell, “and for several
months the’boy was actually so
bad off he had to live on milk
and orangejuice and a few eggs. I
He had a job with the street car
company, but had to give it up
on account of his condition, 1
| “He simply couldn’t eat any
thing that would agree with him
and he would suffer so much
with-gnpingand pains thaf he’d
have to be up and down all night,
j . “We had several doctors to
see him and they said a number
of_ different things was the"
trouble and advised us to send
him to a hospital. He wasn’t
able to do anything in the way of
work and nothing seemed to do
him any good un il we found out
about Tanlac and got him started
on it.
| “He is now on his third bottle
and he has improved so much
that you’d hardly know hiir.. He
sleeps well at night and gets up
in the morning bright and cheer
ful and all his old troubles have
left him. It has been three years
since he could do anything to
help around the house, but now
he cuts up the wood and kindling
and can do just anything like
that,
“We are ail mighty proud of
what Tanlac has done for my
boy and we are glad to recom
mend it.”
Tanlac is sold exclusively in

Washington, D. C.—(Special.)—The commanding position of the South with respect to the cotton mill industry
is graphically shown by figures and a map presented in the annual report of ^Southern Railway Company for the

“A notable feature of Southern manufacturing development," says President Fairfax Harrison in the report, 'Is
the rate at which the consumption of cotton, one of the principal raw materials of the South, has increased In
Southern mills. United States census figures show that in the twelve months ended July 31, 1910, the mills of the
South consumed 3,520,787 hales, as compared with 3,020,909 bales last year, an increase of 499,818
bales, or 10.51 per cent. The mills of all other States consumed 2,809,185 bales in tho twelve
months this year, as compared with 2,570,393 hales last year, an increase of 298,792 bales, or 11.0? per cent. Fully
seventy-five per cent of the cotton Bpindles of the South are In mills along the lines of Southern Railway Company
