pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fiaternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a con
stitutional treatment Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, theieby destroying the
foundation of the disease,, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for cir

Mother Of 10 Cuts Throat At Age
Of 50; Sufferer From Pellagra.
Mrs. J. H. Millwood, a res
ident of Forsyth county, aged
50 years, and a mother of 10
children, died this morning
about 8 o’clock, after cutting
her throat from ear to ear.
Mrs. Millwood had been a
sufferer from pellagra for sev
eral months, and fearing that
recovery was impossible, she
concluded that death by her
own hand was the best and
quickest way of ending her
sufferings. No one in the
house knew of the tragic hap
pening until she was found by
one of her children; lying on
the bed in a pool of her own
blood.
She by 10 child
ren and her husband, Mr. J.

To The Farmers:
WE WELCOME THE ACCOUNTS OF FARMERS-
The farmer’s money usually comes in in large sums, and unless he
has a bank account he must either carry it with him or keep it hid
den around the house, Either way he is likely to lose all he has.
Why not deposit this money in THE FARMERS AND MERCHANTS
BANK, where it will be absolutely safe and where you can get It
when you need it. We want you to feel always at home with us —
The Farmers and Merchants Bank —and we shall be glad to explain
any banking business fully, and give you any other help we can.
When you sell your COTTON and other products, deposit your mon
ey with us, and when you need money call on us, we are prepared
to take care of you. # ,
MONEY DEPOSITED WITH US IS ABSOLUTELY SAFE.

NOTICE!
J, | have a good farm two miles and a half west of Cumming I wish
to sell. Little of it has been cultivated in the last three years, as I
am unable to cultivate or see to its cultivation, and on that account
I propose to sell it at a reduced price on easy terms. There is 170
acres, more or less, of the land, two fairly good houses on it, one lot
and ten acres in the woods, ten acres of a pasture, mottly Bermuda
grass, with a large branch running through the land. There is
some 25 adres of bottom that could be cultivated if the ditches were
kept cleaned out. I have, several years ago, made fine crops of corn
on the bottom, and all it needs now is the labor.
i will take fifteen dollars an acre, one half when the land is sold
and the other half in one year. Will give bond for title until last
payment is made.
