DON'T SWAN
IRRITABLE CHILD
If tongue is coated, stomach
sour, breath feverish, give
“Syrup of Figs’’ to
clean the bowels.
Your child isn’t naturally cross, ir
ritable and peevish, Mother! Examine
the tongue; if coated, it means the little
one's stomach is disordered, liver in
active and its thirty feet of bowels
clogged with foul, decaying waste.
Every mother realizes after giving
delicious "Syrup of Figs" that this is
the ideal laxative and physic for chil
dren. Nothing else regulates the little
one’s tender stomach, liver and bowels
•o effectually, besides they dearly love
Its delightful fig taste.
For constipated bowels, sluggish liver,
biliousness, or sour, disordered stom
ach, feverishness, diarrhoea, sore
throat, bad breath or to break a cold,
give one-half to a teaspoonful of
"Syrup of Figs,” and in a few hours
all the clogged up waste, sour bile, un
digested food and constipated matter
will gently move on and out of the sys
tem without griping or nausea, and; you
will surely have a well, happy and smil
ing child again shortly.
With Syrup of Figs you are not drug
ging your children, being composed en
tirely of luscious figs, senna, and aro
matics it can not be harmful.
Full directions for children of all ages
and for grown-ups plainly printed on
the package.

which will be preached by Bishop Mc-
Coy. There is a mass of business to
come before the conference.
Just what cities will attempt to land
the conference for 1913 is not yet cer
tain, with the exception of Macon, but
It is said that four or five other cities
will contest Macon’s claims to the hon
or. This matter is sure to become one
of lively speculation and interest.
Only morning sessions of the confer
ence will be held, the afternoons being
devoted for the most part to committee
work. Nor will there be night sessions,
unless it shall be found impossible to
get through with the work otherwise.

conference. Dr. Wray has been a
member of the South Georgia confer
ence for a number of years. His pres
ent charge and Wesley Monumental
church here are considered the most
desirable in the conference. The mem
bers of the conference are very much
interested in the appointment of a suc
cessor to Dr. Wray. It is believed that
a strong effort will be made to have Dr.
W. N Ainsworth, who is now without a
charge, sent to the Mulberry Street
church. Dr. Ainsworth was formerly
pastor of this church. He has been in
Macon several years as president of

Dr. C. R. Jenkins is president, meets on
Sunday afternoon.

ing .elders who constitute hls cabinet
are engaged with the fixing of the ap
pointments of the preachers. They meet

Ferrin, Macon; J. A. Thomas. Cordele;

Springfield circuit, are the only three
pastors who will have to be moved be
cause of their having served their four
years. There are 28 men who have been

DEATH OF BRUSH MAKES
HIS WIFE A “MAGNATE":
NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—Through the

“KWEIS” BEST ■ ’
FOR IHE BOWELS
No headache, bad taste, sour
stomach or coated tongue
by morning.
It is more necessary that you keep
your Bowels, Liver and Stomach clean,
pure and fresh than it is to keep the
sewers and drainage of a large city free
from obstruction.
Are you keeping clean inside with
Cascarets—or merely forcing a pas
sageway every few days with salts,
cathartic pills or castor oil? This is
important.
Cascarets immediately cleanse and
regulate the stomach, remove the sour,
undigested and fermenting food and
foul gases; take the excess bile from
the liver and carry out of the system
the constipated waste matter and poi
son in the intestines and bowels.
No odds how badly and upset you
feel, a Cascaret tonight will straighten
you out by morning. They work while
you sleep. A 10-cent box from your
druggist will keep your head clear,
stomach sweet and your liver and bow
els regular for months. Don’t forget
the children—their little insides need a
good, gentle cleansing, too. (Advt.)

“I Will Give Her
—A Door of
Hope”
At your door, you would not let
a woman die, or suffer worse than
death for the lack of money.
To save her, you would give
even the price of an automobile
tire, if not the cost of the car.
Or, the price of a number of
evenings at the opera, or the play.
Or, the cost of ten or more
drinks and a box or two of cigars.
SURELY YOU WOULD NEV
ER CRY: “TOO MANY CALLS
FOR CHARITY,” AND LEAVE
HER TO DIE AT YOUR DOOR.
Because she is lying, crushed by
her burden,at a distance from your
threshold, you will not turn aside
and say:
“She is not at my door, but sev
eral blocks away,”
More than city blocks walked
Jesus, bearing a cross and stagger
ing under blows, that He might
save her, and you and yours, by the
giving of His life.
What will you give?
She and many like her are here,
today, as you know.
OUR RECORDER, THE
COURTS, THEIR SOLICITORS,
OUR POLICE FORCE AND ITS
CHIEF ARE CO-OPERATING
TO SAVE THEM.
They want your help.
Almost daily, they find them—
women, often mere children, with
minds so maimed that they must
feel the law’s strong hand, ere they
can be saved.
Monday, one in short skirts, a
child in years but ages old in evil,
stood with others in the Recorder’s
court.
“A door of hope” for them is
needed.
HENCE MARTHA’S HOME,
WHERE THEY MAY BE CAR
RIED AND RESTORED WITH-
O U T EMBARRASSING YOU
AND YOURS BY FALLING AT
YOUR VERY DOOR.
One who fell and rose, and, therefore,
knows, gives and more—her life.
What share is yours?
