More than nine out of eVe -y ten cases of rheumatism are simply rheu matism of the muscles, due to cold or damp, or chronic rheumatism. Tn such cases no internal treatment is required. The free application of Chamberlain’s Liniment is all that is needed, and it is certain to give quick relief. Give it at trial and see for yourself how quickly it relieves the pain and soreness. The medicines usually given internally for rheuma tism are poisonous or very strong medicines. They are worse than use les in cases of chronic and muscular rheumatism.

Mrs. Julia McCoy, formerly of this place but who has been liv ing near Euharlee, Ga., for the last nine or ten years, died about three weeks ago. She was about 72 years old and was the widow of Frank McCoy, who died many years ago. She had a hard time raising her family, but she suc ceeded and gave her three daugh ters a fair education. Alary Broom, the oldest and the wife of J. F. Broom, now lives near Euharlee. Janie, who is now de ceased, married M. C. T. Mathis. Florence, the youngest, married a Baptist minister. The Rev.T. Scott Johnston was a brother of Mrs. McCoy, also J. P. Johnston, both of whom move d from here several years ago to Texas and are both dead. Scott Johnston was a brave and good soldier in the 39th Ga. Regt. Co. 11. The writer was in Summerville last Saturday at an annual meet ing of our eahip. Most of the old soldiers are now getting a pension. All will soon get one who are not worth over fifteen hundred dollars. 1 think all should have a pension, not hav ing any property clause in it. A few more years will end all our days here. And there will not Jte any more old ex-confederate soldiers here 1 expect that Chattooga county furnished 800 or 1,000 soldiers for the war be tween the states and I think there were 25 or 30 present at our meeting. Thirty nine have paid their dues but I will venture to say there are not more than 450 now living out of all that left our country for the war. There were five, I believe, of my old Co. present, John 11. White. John B. Clark, C. W. Crumby, Ren Murdock and myself, though there are several in Texas and oth er places. I will name three names who are entitled to pen sions that have never received any, Mrs. John W. Rutledge, Mrs. Sarah Yancy and Mr. A. Drake. There may be more that I do not know of in our district. Mrs. C. P. Clowdis has already applied for a pension, but for some cause the claim has never been allowed. It looks like she would be enti tled to draw a pension. 1 will say that all who feel in terested will meet at the John ston grave yard on the sth Sat urday in May, the 29th, for the purpose of cleaning off the grounds of the cemetery. Bring sufficient tools to do the work with. We are very wet here and but little planted so far, corn and cotton. Most of the cotton crop this year will be planted in May. We use to think May too late for cotton, but we have learned that it does about as well planted in May tte in April. So with our late planting and Texas so dry that cotton will not come up, it looks like the crop will be short. If they could have some of the rain in Texas that we are having in Georgia and us a little of their dry, sun shiny days we all might make more. But I guess we will make more than enough any way to cut the price down. Though eotton is advatfeing a little in prices since it is nearly .all out of the farmers hands. Well the farmer has a hard time and hard work, yet all must come from the. farmer; if we succeed all others who do not farm arc successful and if we fail to make it all other avocations fail. So it seems to me that all should work for the interests of the one main thing, for all, and that is the faro ers . G. A. RAGLAND. Mr. Albert Pledger of Horton, Ala., was n>. town Tuesday. THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, T DRY VALLEY Editor News:—- 1 It was my pleasure to spend a day recently at the pleasant and hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas R.' Knox, of Broomtown ‘ valley, litre prosperity greets your view on every side. A large and commodious house, a broad expanse of fertile land, on which green fields of wheat and oats ar ’ seen in the distance. Mr. Knox ■ himself does not plant a seed of ■ eotton, but tievotes himself to grain, grass and stock raising. ‘ His tenants raise some cotton. He has one field of twenty a‘res in ■ grass. In this field can be seeig; • a large herd of cattle of the Dura I ham variety, several herd of fine • mules and horses, colts, and val -1 liable mares. He recently retus > ed two hundred and fifteen dol ‘ lars for one young mule. He has 1 one old mare, nearly thirty years 1 old. This mare lias raised him 1 about twenty-eight hundred dol lars worth of stock. She is now ‘ feeble. She is kept in a pasture ' to herself, through which flows - the crystal waters of Teloga 1 creek. Mr. Knox has retired ’ this mare to private life. He is 1 trying to make her last days her 1 best days, for the great service ‘ she has rendered him. H e does 1 not allow her to be worked, rid den or driven and when she dies 1 he said he was going to have her ’ buried and a tombstone placed 1 at her grave. 1 Mr. Knox’s hogs are of the Bill more-Berkshire kind.

To give you an idea Low this rich, deep, red mulatto land sell; ■ in Broomtown valley, .Mr. Knox has been offered one thousand dollars for one twenty acre field. Mr. Knox’s residence stands not f'r from old Teloga spring. This spring of clear, cold water makes a creek itself and was nam ed after the famous old Indian Chief, Teloga, who lived in a house about one hundred yards west of the Knox residence, which has long since disappeared. ' t hies Teloga was killed between his home and Lafayette. When this country was in its primeval forest the road which was made by th’ Indians was said to run on an air line from the spring on the Napiei farm, in Walker coun ty, right by Teloga’s house to the Samuel 11. Knox residence, ■ in Broomtown valley, near Menlo The last traces of the Indians that once lived in our country are almost lost in oblivion and 1 only live in history. The names 1 of some of our creeks, rivers and ' mountains carry their names. Coosa, Coosawattee, Connasauga, Oostanaula, Etowah and many others throughout the state. Tay lor’s ridge was named after an old Chief named Dick Taylor, Dick’s ridge, in West Armuehee, was named for his given name. How many of your readers know that’ our worthy citizen, Capt. John W.
