LITTLE ITEMS OF GEORGIA CITIES
Columbus.—A Georgia rooster
which will soon start on his journey
to his new home in the north will
leave as a solace to his late owners
$130 of good Pennsylvania money.
This one of the best prices ever ob¬
tained for a chicken native to Musco¬
gee county, and shows that fancy
fowls of the best quality can lie bred
in Georgia.
Greensboro.—The grand jury of
Greene county, in returning its gen¬
eral presentment in open court stron
!y recommended that the grave of
Governor Peter Early remain in
Greene county, where his body has
rested for nearly a century. The jury
also indorsed the cattle quarantine
law, and pledged the co-operation of
the citizens of the county to the state
aud federal government in its en¬
forcement. From the presentments,
the county is entirely out of debt,
and has $11,000 to its credit.
Athens.—Two bank presidents and
a cashier, several directors and no
telling how many stockholders have
been the objects of charges by the
police of Athens in the past week
haled into recorder’s court 10 pay
fines for violating the new traffic or¬
dinance passed by council, requiring
teams and machines to drive to the
right and to have lights on ail autos
after dark. Sixty-one cases in ad
have been made in the past twenty
days by the specially detailed police
otucers,
Summerville.—Following the finding
of a package of papers belonging to
the Bank of Lyierly sewn in a mat¬
tress in the home of Mark McXew,
four miners were lodged in jail here
charged with the spectacular dyna¬
miting the hank and the theft of
$■1,000. The four under arrest are Me
Xew, Jerry Wilson, the latter’s broth¬
er, Son Wilson, and Henry Hilburn,
the last two being little more than
boys. Detectives who arrested the
men claim that their prisoners are
also responsible for the robbery of
the Bank of Summerville a year ago.
Macon.—That middle Georgia has
experienced the best fruit weather in
her history during the present winter
and that the indications are that the
crop of peaches this year will be ab¬
normal in this section of the state,
was the statement made by E. .1. Wil¬
lingham of Macon, one of the largest
growers in the state, who has just
returned from a ten-day visit to his
orchards at Byron. “This little warm
spell we have been having has had
no effect whatever,’’ said Mr, Willing¬
ham. “The critical period for the
peach growers will come within the
next sixty days, but it will take a
spel! of ten (lays of real summer
weather, followed by a freeze, to do
any material damage. - ’
Griffin.—The people of this city
are elated over the splendid pros¬
pects of securing the next session of
the Georgia Confederate reunion,
which will be held some time during
the summer months. The combined
efforts of the Spalding county Con¬
federate veterans and the United
Daughters of the Confederacy, back¬
ed by the board of trade and the city
council, have secured from State
Commander Preston of Macon, the
assurance that Griffin is held in high
esteem by those who have the au¬
thority to determine where the re¬
union shall be held. The letter from
Commander Preston indicates that
Griffin will, in all probability, be the
city selected for the great gathering
this year.
Rome.—It became known here that
erquest for the appointment of a re¬
ceiver for the State Mutual Life In¬
surance company' of Georgia, with
headquarters here, has been filed
with Judge Ben Hill, of the superior
court in Atlanta. The petition was
filed by J. E. Lockridge and E. E.
Tanner, holders of approximately
$20,000 worth of the company’s inter¬
est-bearing certificates. There are
said to be approximately $1,300,000
worth of these certificates in all.
The company is said to have assets
amounting to about $3,000,000. Cop¬
ies of the rule nisi were served on
officers of the company here, calling
on them to appear before Judge Hill
in Atlanta on February 24tli, and
show cause why a receiver should
not be appointed.
Tallapossa.—Joe Sanford, , wanted
in Haralson superior court for moon
shining and other charges, made a
spectacular escape from officers here.
The man had been taken from a mid¬
night train and carried to a room,
because bis clothing was wet and
officers thought best not to put him
in jail in the wet clothing. The of¬
ficers guarded him until early in the
morning, and seeing him asleep the
officers left for a few minutes. When
they returned the man was gone, and
a rope made of the bed sheets hang¬
ing from a second story window told
the tale. Sanford had left his cloth¬
ing, but wrapped himself in two good |
blankets for protection against the j
air of the morning, which was almost j
freezing. He is wandering in the j
woods near Tallapoosa, and people j
w ho saw him believed molest him a crazy j
man and did not him.
SAFE TO GO TO FUNERAL
Diplomatic Reasoning That Should
Have Reassured the Ambassador
in a Dilemma.
At the death of the duke of Welling¬
ton the whole diplomatic corps in
London was invited to the funeral at
St. Paul’s. The French ambassador,
on receiving his invitation, was very
much upset. He hurried off to his
colleague of Russia, Baron Brunow,
and confided to him the difficulty in
which he w’as placed. .
"The queen," he said, “expects us to
go to St. Paul's to the funeral of the
duke of Wellington. How can I go,
considering the Injuries which the
duke inflicted on my country? What
shall I do?”
Baron Brunow listened gravely to
his colleague's exposition, and then
replied:
"As the duke is dead," he said, "X
think you can safely go to the funeral.
If you were asked to attend Ills resur¬
rection, I should say refuse the invita¬
tion."
IN PAIN WITH HEMORRHOIDS
Bissell, Ala.—“I was troubled for
several years with protruding hemor¬
rhoids. They caused pain of the most
severe kind and some loss of blood.
They were so inflamed that the touch
of anything against them was most
intense agony. I got no rest nights
and had to have my logs and feet
propped up in the bed.
“I tried all kinds of advertised
cures, and I was told that an opera
tion*was the only relief. I suffered
untold agony. I saw tho advertise¬
ment of Cutlcura Soap and Ointment
and sent for a sample. I tried It and
then procured a box of Cutieura Soap
and Cutieura Ointment. I was cured
sound and well In three weeks' time.
A cake of Cutieura Soap and two boxes
of Cutieura Ointment accomplished
what all else failed to do.” (Signed)

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Yeara Younger! Try Grandma’s
Recipe of Sage and Sulphur
and Nobody Will Know,
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound¬
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, Itching
Bcalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which Is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul¬
phur Hair Remedy.” You will get a
large bottle for about 50 cents. Every¬
body uses this old, famous recipe, be¬
cause 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 morn¬
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

No Rest—No Peace
There’s no rest and bntlittle peace for
a person whose kidneys are out of order.
Lame in the morning, suffering cricks
in the back and sharp stabs of pain
with every sudden strain, the day is
just one round of pain and trouble.
It would be strange if all-day back¬
ache did not wear on the temper, but
it is not only on that account that
people who suffer with weak kidneys
are nervous, cross and irritable.
Uric acid is poison to the nerves,
and when the kidneys are not working
well, this acid collects in the blood
and works upon the nerves, causing
headache, dizziness, languor, an in¬
clination to worry over trifles, and a
suspicious, short temper.
Rheumatic pain, neuralgia, sciatica,
lumbago, neuritis and gravel are fur¬
ther steps in uric acid poisoning.
Don’t neglect kidney weakness. An
aching back, with unnatural passages
of the kidney secretions, is cause
enough to suspect the kidneys. Use
Doan's Kidney Pills, a remedy which
has been used for years, the world
over, for weak kidneys, backache, ir¬
regular kidney action and uric acid

Everett’s home, aiu), going to the win¬

New York City Woman TelhofAwfulSufferin #
Mrs. Edith Dykeman, 154 W. S4th St..;
Now York ClPy, N. Y.. says: “Three year*
ago I was so run down in health afflicted that I
was a nervous wreck. I was
with a severe case of disordered kid¬
neys and doctors treated me without
benefit. My kidneys acted either too free¬
ly or else the action was retarded and
the passages of the secretions caused m®i
much pain. My back ached frightfully
day and night and I often rolled and!
tossed for hours, unable to go to sleep.!
In tiie morning I felt all worn out and)
was hardly able to do rny housework.!
Whenever 1 stooped to pick up anythin#
from the floor, I was hardly able to 1
straighten again. I had terrible dizzyj ia!
spells and specks seemed to be floating
front of me. If T walked up or down 1
stairs, I was completely worn out from!
weakness. The least excitement brought!
on an attack of nervousness and I got
so bad that it was hard for me to be up
and around. My health was all run down.

me. I kept right on until 1 was entirely;
