The
General Demand
of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a laxative whieh physicians could
eauction for family uae because its com
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex
cellent combination of Syrup of Fig* and
Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine- manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

SEMINOLE
Last week was a beautiful week
for the farmers and they sure did
make use of the time. There
were thousands oi bushels of cot
ton seed put in the ground and
yet the people here are not done
planting. And i must say too
that thousand of dollars worth of
commercial fetilize was put in
the ground and yet people are
not done putting it in the ground
Some have put in all they had
and bought more. 1 heard of one
man who had used 150 sacks —
S3OO worth—and lacked some
having as much as he wanted.
We have to make a pretty fair
cotton crop to pay for the fer
tilizer used to make it. Some of
the first cotton planted is coining
up and Mr. Williams says if we
can get it up by the first of June
it will make and the frost will
not get it in the fall. The corn
crop is nearly all to plant yet
and most of the ground to pre
pare.
Our Sunday schools are doing
finely now—a very good attend
ance. We missed our regular
preaching on the second Sunday
but will have preaching by Rev.

Next Saturday is Justice court
day here.
Let all remember that on Sat
urday, the 29, is the day set

1 want to say that there came
through our part of the country
not long ago an agent for a pa
per. some kind of a magazine,
and to induce the women to sub
scribe for his paper, he proposed
to give a nice dress skirt extra —
the paper and skirt to cost only
one dollar and all who wanted
the whole dress could pay two
dollars and that he would deliv
er the goods in two or three days
and the paper would be started
to their address. About one
month has passed and none of
the ladies have heard a word
from their clever agent nor have
they received any paper or dress
or skirt and he gathered in sev
eral dollars from this part of the
country. He said his name was
Cramer and that his mother-in
law lived at Lyerly and his fath
er was running a saw mill near
Raccoon. The women of our com
munity are waiting patiently, Mr.
Cramer, on you to bring their
goods according to promise and
send the magazine or return the
money. Good luck to the ladies
who subscribed for Mr. Cramer’s
magazine and bought his goods.
We still hope that he will yet
come around and make good his
promises to the good ladies who
subscribed for his paper.

GORE, GA.
Dear Editor:—Will you kindly
allow’ spa«e for an apology in re
gard to the spelling contest be
tween Gore and Farmersville.
There seems to be quite a little
confusion about the contest.
We do not know who wrote the
letter from Gore or the two let
ters from Farmersville, but we
are authorized to say that our
teacher nor any of his pupils did
it.
We wish to annihilate every un
pleasant thought and extinguish
the coals that have been aglow’.
Gore did, as was stated by the
“ Lover of Justice,” challenge Far
inersville for the contest. Now a t
to the time we know nothing of
that, only it was something near
half hour after Gore reported be
fore the spelling began.
Gore must acknowledge she took
the advantage of Farmersville in
that she did select her best spell
ers and left the little fellows at
home, but we thought we were
.justifyable, because little folks d<
not always realize right from
wrong, just as some of Farmers
ville’s little folk didn’t know it
was wrong to get a book and seat
themselves near the rear end of
the line and help the other little
fellows that were standing. AVe
are sure the teacher knew noth
ing about anything of the kind
going on or she would have cer
tainly stopped it. No doubt, the
little fellows had been taught to
help others, so they continued
faithfully as long as convenient
As it was a community spelling
Farmersville had a perfect right
to extend their community into
Sand Mountain district, but as
the Farmersville teacher suggest
ed, it would not have been fair
for Gore to have sent to Summer
ville for an expert.
We are very sorry we went to
Earmresville amd offended to
the extent of hard feelings and
false reports.
During the spelling there were
a number of words questioned as
to whether the participant should
not go down, one of those words
was “beacon,” after the Goreite
had spelled “beckon” and “ba
con,” seeing that the teacher was
going to pass it on, the pupil
turned to her teacher and remark
ed that she did not understand
the word, so "when her teacher
gave the word again she spelled
it at one trial rather than three,
as has been stated. Her statement
was accepted, which, of course,
no one had a right to doubt, un
less it was an expert mind-readt ’
whieh conies by only the aid of
an evil spirit and we feel sure
that no one there was thus pos
sessed, so she remained. Anoth
er word was “desert,” meaning
“barren,” but that was settled
when the teacher told her pupil
that it was spelled just like the
word “desert,’ meaning “food,”
which had just been spelled by
a Gore pupil, she remained. An
other word was “vail,” after hav
ing spelled at it twice then mak
ing the statement that she knew n
other way. her teacher said it
rhymes wiht “rail,” The word
was spelled and she remained. Os
course it was an oversight in the
“Lover of Justice,” or she would
have written this too.
When Farmersville school house
is placed on or about the line be
tween two school districts, does
not mean that Farmersville citi
zens hail anything to do with it
or that it is even wrong. And
when the citizens signed a peti
tion to keep the Gore children
from getting any of the public
funds that their fathers had paid
out as taxes was not to be con
sidered as anything but justice.
But back to the climax of the
spelling contest—victory. It is
relative to what we term a victo
ry. It was as follow One oi
the Goreites sat down before miss
sing, another spelled “hrinqjis •
after the last contestant on the
Farmersville side failed. Who
won the victory?

Second, a borrower who can
make a good bankable paper can
always get the “Dough.”

Bank can offer except the Bank
of Lyerly. The Bank of Lyerly
INSURES YOUR MONEY TO
YOU.
That is, if the Bank should blou
away, the directors all drop dead
the money all be stolen, why all
the depositors would have to do
is to send their pass-books to At

ply amazing. ’
