SMALL COMFORT" FOR TITUS'
Mr. Titmouse Might'Have Felt Better
Had He Not Called on News
paper Editor.
Titus Titmouse was Infuriated, but'
the editor of the Western Wind shut
him up In two seconds.
"Is this the newspnper office?" In
quired Mr. Titmouse.
“It Is," responded the man at the
desk.
"Didn’t this pnper say I was a
liar?"
"It did not."
"Didn’t It aay I was a scoundrel?"
“It did not"
“Well, some pater said It.”
"Possibly It was our contemporary
down the street" suggested the editor
as he picked up a paperweight. “This
paper never prints stale news."—Los
Angeles Times.
His Altered Tastes.
“Do you remember the old fishing
hole of your boyhood days?”
"I certainly do. And If I could
equip It with a sofa Hnd an electric
fan, and have a buffet right handy I’d
rather like to pass an afternoon back
among the old familiar scenes.”—Bos
ton Transcript.

"Are these lady barbers a success?”
“So far as I know of they are. I heard
one of them discuss the World's Series
most Intelligently.”
A Cubist Difficulty.
Blasco Ibanez, the Spanish novelist,
was talking-In New York about the
cubists.
“I know a cubist In Madrid,” he
said, "who palnta portraits that look
like eggs, chains, bottles, rocks—any
thing but the models they are painted
from.
“I dropped In on this cubist In his
studio one morning, and found him
examining with low, troubled oaths
some 20 or SO of his masterpieces.
“ 'What's the matter, old man?' I
said.
“ 'The matter Is,’ said he, 'that Don
Mucho Denaro, the oil profiteer, has
Just sent around for his portrait, and
to save ray life' I can't remember
which It Is.'”
A Helping Hand.
A very shy young farmer was court
ing a serttlus-mlnded young woman
who was not averse to him or to mar
riage, but she found herself after a
long period of silent courtship no near
er the goal than over; the young man
could not summon up courage to speak.
One night, ns they sat together—In
dead silence, of course—In her fath
er’s parlor, she doeldod that the hour
and the man had come.
“George," she said In her most seri
ous tones, "George, If you love me
and don’t like to sny so, you may
squeeze my hand."

and operate public utilities and public
services of practically every imagin
able nature, the Cobb County delega

ter for the city of Marietta. In add!
tion to the wide powers of purchase,

Sandersville Fire Engine
Sandersville.—A big, new fire en
gine has been purchased by the city
of Sandersville. It is one of the most
modern types, costing $11,000, and It
will throw a stream of water 100 feet
high, two stories higher than any
building in the city. A paid fire de
partment will be maintained by the
city in order to reduce the insurance
rate. It is estimated that more than
a million and one-half dollars fire in
surance is carried in this city by prop
erty owners and when the premiums
are reduced it will mean a saving tc
property owners of $25,000 a year
High Cost o’ Fishing Given Wallop
Dublin.—A. J. Toole, of this city,
has sprung a new fish bait, since the
scarcity of the usual eel worm that
has made fighting history here since
the time the original Ananias club re
counted the exploits of fishermen. He
uses spaghetti. He soaks it overnight,
and has it soft and “wiggly” by morn
ing. When he goes fishing there is
nothing to do but hang it on the hook.
He reports that it is good bait, and
he catches ’em just about as fast with
it as with eel worms. Fish bait is
soiling at $2 per quart here, and
scarce at that, and announcement of
success with spaghetti is being die
cussed very generally.

of the Americus Steam laundry, and
Clarence Carswell, a well known
Americus business man, engaged in

Carswell’s refusal to pay a disputed
account and McMath’s refusal to de
liver certain wearing belongings to
Carswell until a settlement was af
fected. Witnesses say that McMath,
who came from the back of his estab
lishment to talk with Carswell, open
ed a gate separating his office from
the lobby and advanced apparently to
attack Carr*well, a smaller man than
himself. The cutting was done with a
small pocket knife.
Poisoned Liquor Deaths Are Murder.
Atlanta.—Some protection for con
sumers of blind tiger booze is sought
in a bill which received favorable con
sideration at the hands of general ju
diciary committee No. 1 of the house.
While it guards against any weaken
ings of the present bone-dry statutes,
it also seeks to guard the unwary
drinkers against sudden death by
making it a felony punishable by ten
years imprisonment in the penitenti
ary to manufacture or offer for sale
any liquor containing potash, wood al
cohol, or other violent poison. Death
caused by the consumption of such li
quor is declared to be* murder.
Tax Digests Show Big Increase

teen counties have been received to
date which show an Increase of $10,-
000,000 over the returns made last

last year showed increases aggregat
ing $2,760,000. Mr. Fullbright says
that the same proportion cf-increase
by all the 156 counties of the state
would mean an increase in the com
plete returns of $240,000,000 over last
year. Several of the digests from the
fourteen counties were too low, how
ever, and have been returned for re
adjustment, the commissioner said.
Girls Cultivate Sick Neighbor’s Crops

Augusta.—The express robbers, Er
nest Hart, Milledge Derrick and W. J.
Quattlebaum, were arraigned before
U. S. Commissioner C. J. Skinner,* Jr.,
and held to the grand jury of the fed
eral court in November. Hart’s bond

How Many Women Are Like This?
Can anything be more wearing for women than the ceaseless
round of household duties? Ohl the monotony of it all-
work and drudge; no time to be sick; tired, ailing, yet can
not stop. There comes a time when something “snaps” and
they find themselves “ simply worn out,” and to make matters
worse,have contractedserious feminine disorder which almost
always follows the constant overtaxing of a woman’s strength.
Then they should remember that there is no remedy like
Lydia K. Plnkbam’s Vegetable Compound—the expe
rience of these two women establishes that fact!
Sandusky, Ohio.—“After theblrth
of my baby I had organlo trouble.
My doctor said it wm caused by
too heavy lifting and I would
have «to have an operation. I
would not consent to an operation
and let it go for over a year, having
my sister do my work for me as I
was not able to walk. One day my
aunt came to see me and told me
about your medicine—said it cured
her of the same thing. I took Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
and used Lydia E. Pinkbam’a Sana
tive Wash and they have cured me.
Now I do my own housework, waeh-
ing and ironing and sewing for my
family and also do sewing for other
people. I still take a bottle of Vege
table Compound every spring for a
tonic. I recommend your medicine
to others who have troubles similar
to mine and you can use my letter
if you wish.’’—Mrs. Paul Paphn-

Cedar Rapids, la.—“After th»
birth of my last child I hod such
painful spells that would unfit me

fered for months and the doctor said

tion- That was au awful thing to
me. with a young baby and four other
children, bo one day I thought of
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound and how it had helped
me yoart before and I decided to try
it again. I took five bottles of Vege

Pinkham’s Sanative Wash andslnco
then I have been a well woman, able
to take care of my house and family

Relief for Torpid Livers
' and Habitual Constipation
The liver Is the largest and most Im
portant organ In the bod;, and when the
liver refuses to act, it causes constipa
tion, biliousness, lieadnches, Indigestion,
gas, sour stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains In back and under shoul
der blades and under ribs on right side.
These symptoms lead to colds. Influenza
or other serious troubles unless corrected
Immediately.
An Inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which overtaxes
them and causes the blood to absorb and
carry Into the system the imparities that
the liver and kidneys have failed to elim
inate.
When you treat the liver alone, you
treat only a third of your trouble, and
that Is why you have to take purgatives
every .few nights. Calomel of other or
dinary laxatives do not go far enough.
If you would treat your kidneys and blood
while treating the liver, yon would put
your entire system In order and frequent
purgatives would then be unnecessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years ago
recognized these Important facts, and after much study and research, com
pounded what Is now known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver, Kidney and Blood Pow
ders, three medicines combined in one. This was the Doctor’s favorite pre
scription for many years, being used by bis patients with marked success. It
Is a harmless vegetable remedy that will not make you sick, and yen may eat
anything you like while taking it.
Get a large tin box from your druggist or dealer for 25 cents, under hla
personal guarantee that it will give relief, tone np the liver, stimulate the
kidneys to healthy action and thereby purify the blood. Keep It In the home
for ready use whenever any member of the family begins to feel "ont of sorts.*
It will prove a household friend and a valuable remedy.
