What is Spring Fever
It is simply lack of Energy and low Vitality caused
by impurities in the blood.
Grove’s
Tasteless chill Tonic
restores Energy and Vitality by creating new healthy
blood. When you feel its strengthening, invigorating
effect, see how it brings color to the cheeks and how
it improves the appetite, you will then appreciate
its true tonic value.
GROVE'S TASTELESS Chill TONIC is not a patent
medicine. It is simply IRON and QUININE sus
pended in Syrup. So pleasant even children like it.
The Quinine and Iron does not dissolve in the syrup
and, therefore, does not make the syrup bitter. You
do not taste the bitter Quinine and you do not
taste the Iron because both are completely covered
with syrup when swallowed.
Your system needs Quinine to Purify the Blood and
lron to Enrich it. These good old reliable tonic
properties never fail to drive out impurities in the
bloed, and when you have rich, pure blood coursing
through your veins, you feel like running, jumping
and shouting. The Spring Fever soon disappears.
GROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC is acceptable
to the most delicate stomach and does not cause
nervousness or ringing in the head. Price 60c.

Atlanta housewives who get
breakfast and dinner themselves,
permitting their maids to stroll in
about 9 o'clock and leave at 2 or 3
o'clock in the afternoon, have felt all
along that they were doing every
thing possible to make things nice
and homelike for the hardworking
servant girls, but they are due a
rude awakening. There are a lot of
little courtesies they have never
even thought of. For instance, the
following, offered in the classified
department of The News in Sa
lem, Mass.:
GIRL, WANTED: One who is a
good, plain cook with considerable
experience. [Family of three people,
where another girl is kept and a
man doesg the heavy work in house
cleaning. Kitchen is large, light
and pleasant—cool in summer and
warm in winter, with awnings. The
kitchen has every modern conven
fence, no coal fires to build, pleéhty
of steaming hot water. Maids' rooms
are good size, well furnished, sunny,
steam heated, electric lights, and
there is a private bath for them.
Also the maids have a sitting room
near the kitchen, One night and
afternoon out every week and ev
ery other Sunday afternoon and
night off. No late meals. In fif
teen years four girls have left the
family to get married. The one
now leaving is also to get marrieds
Nearly all of the work for the new
girl is in the kitchen, being prac
tically the cook. Good wages and
a permanent home assured.

AMERICUS, GA. May 26—~Two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars’
worth of cotton was disposed of in!
Americus last week, a portion of it at
31 cents, and with none sold less than
30 cents for xood. middling, Heavy‘
demands for better grades prevailed
throughout the latter days of the
week, and on Saturday approximately
500 bales were sold, while the total
for the week was recorded as 1,650
bales, These sales, which made con
siderable inroads on Americus’' cotton
stock, left about 6,000 bales held in
warehouses here, with about 1,600 ad
ditional bales in warehouse at Plains,
and probably 200 other bales held at
Leslie and DeSoto. |
There is also a quantity of cotton
still held in plantation warehouses in
Sumter County, but this is being
brought into warehouses now, and it
is believed will be sold quickly if pres
