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 which physicians could sanction for family use 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 it« ex cellent combination of Syrup of Figs 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.

We have had some very hot days but farmers must not mind the hot weather if they succeed in making a living on the farm. Jfe must stay with it all the time, cold or hot, wet or dry.

The court bouse bonds I guess scared some, but the debt is now fastened on the people of Chattooga county and none of us should try to shun it by giving in our taxes lower. G. A. RAGLAND. Intense Colicky Pains Relieved. “For some years 1 suffered from ' intense colicky pains which would I , come on at times and from which I could find no relief,’’ says I. S. Ma | son, of Beaver Dam, Ky. “Chamber lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended to me by I a friend. After taking a few doses of the remedy I was entirely relieved. That was four years ago and there lias been no return of the symptoms since that time." This remedy is for ; sale by Summerville Drug Co., Sum ’ merville, Ga. Automobiles to Haul Road Drags. At Salina, Kan., an effort is being made to induce each automobilist to drag several miles of road after each rain. The theory is that the use of the drag places the earth on the crown of the road, where it dries and hard ens. After another rain a repetition of the dragging carries on more earth which in turn hardens, and after a few such applications of the drag there is a considerable hardened sur face to the road which does not easi ly disintegrate. The employment of the motor car to haul the drag would demonstrate a hitherto unemployed utility of the machine. Cured Hay Fever and Summer Cold. A. S. Nusbaum, Batesville.

All Druggists ■ STATE NOT “BROKE” < SAYS POPE BROWN. 1 1 Elberton, Ga.,—Before one of the < largest crowds of farmers ever gath- i ered in Elbert, Hon. J. Pope Brown, 1 state treasurer, spoke at the county i rally of the Elbert union Saturday, i : Fully 1,800 people were present. Mr. Brown's speech was along the , line of education, and he paid a great tribute to the work of the Farmers’ ; union, and also said the rural deliv : ery of mail to the farmers of Geor gia and the south was of great bene fi to the masses. He. gave as an instance of parti san politics, where some of the news papers of the state tried to make it appear that the state was “broke.” This, he said, was wrong. That Geor gia was not any worse off financially i at present than she had been in sev- . oral years. WHY NOT LET THE GRASS MAKE MONEY FOR YOU This is an opportune time to drive ; in an object lesson, If it were possi ble for such a thing to be done to this perverse generation of. southern ' farmers who were recently about to : perish in about a week in one whole ; section because a railroad strike ■ threatened to cut off the Western i supply of provisions. Nevertheless, : it is our duty to cry out, as a faith- ■ ful watchman on the tower, whether ’ any heed or not—possibly some poor ■ farmer may be saved, and it is worth j . the attempt. So here is the lesson: j One of the essentials of successful stock raising is good pasturage: and i one of the greatese handicaps to suc i cessful stock raising in may sectios ■ of the south is the lack of suitable ■ I pastures. A good pasture means, first of all, : I plenty of grass: but there are otherj • things necessary to make a really i good pasture. It must have water : . and shade as well as grass, and in • any section where cultivation has s succeeded range conditions it must ; be enclosed. Now, of shade and water there is no scarcity in the south, and we have the grass, too, if we would only, re- | alize it. But when it comes to fences j i we are tremenduously handicapped. I I It is safe to say that there are : [ thousands of farmers in every south-! ■ ern state who would grow many ■ more and much better cattle and i horses, hogs, and sheep if they had ■ \ good pastures for them to run in. i Yet it is easy to find all over the . cotton belt fields grown up in ber- i ■ muda —one of the finest pasture | ; grasses in the world —in which the i •' owners plant corn or cotton year at’-: ■ ter year and spend all summer fight ing the grass only to have a poor j | and very expensive crop at the sea- j i son’s end. We heard not long since I ' a farmer talking of how he was going ’ to kill out the bermuda on a poor 1 hill side preparatory to getting it ’ ready to sow in grass. All that he | 1 needs to do —aud all that thousands of other farmers need to do —is to 1 put a good fence about that field and 1 some stock on it and give it a little i attention a few years, keeping down : briers and bushes and giving it an • occasional harrowing, and he would ■ have a pasture which would pay him j f ten times as much as he is now get- 1 ting from those acres. I A good permanent pasture should be one of the established institutions on every farm, and in the despised • and neglected bermuda we have a ■ grass of which Professor Spillman of I the United States department of ag l riculture says that “no other grass i bears pasturing better or yields more ’ herbage in the form of pasture.” ■ With out winter-growing grasses and ■ legumes it would be easy for us to i supplement it so as to have pastures ■ practically the whole year round. : Yet we go fighting it to grow - sorry crops of low-priced cotton and ■ tobacco to pay for the butter and ' beef and lard and bacon this same . grass would make for us if we would let it. Only another one of the south's neglected opportunities.— t Griffin News and Suu. 1 HOLLISTER'S i Rocky Mountain Tea Nuggets A Busy Medicine for Bust People. , Brings Golden Health and Renewed Vigor.

A SUCCESSFUL MEETING At the Church of Christ, Trion, Georgia. I hope you will allow me space in your paper to tell of the great amount of good that has been ac complished in a recent protracted meeting which occurred at Trion, Ga. beginning July 18 and closing Aug ust Ist. Oh, how it fills our hearts with joy when we see the people “turn from the power of Satan unto God,” . and that is what precious souls have dune in this meeting. There were six from the Baptists. We are sur prised that there were not more ad ditions. It was surely not because they did not understand their duty, because Mr. Jno. T. Smithson pre sented it to them just as it was penn ed down by the inspired writer of long ago. He is a very able preach er and knows exactly what his bus iness is when he gets up fn the pul pit. He is not ashamed of the Gos pel of Christ, and “shuns not” to declare all the counsel of God. And that he may live long to preach tne Gospel to every creature, bap tizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, is the prayer of one who is much interest ed in the salvation of souls. S. C. H. In Memory. On May the Ist, 1909, the sweet gentle spirit of Mrs. J. G. Stephen ; son was called home to rest. We mourn to see our loved ones falling one by one yet when they fall with the armor on we should rejoice that the victory is won. Sister Stephenson was the daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Clark. Was married to Mr. Stephenson in 1892. She professed a hope in Christ while young and joined Poplar Springs Bap tist church, and lived a devoted mem ber until called home to rest. She leaves a husband, seven* children, a father and mother and several sis i ters and brothers and a host of rela i tlves and friends to mourn her death. I We in our finite minds cannot solve ; the problem why she was taken when her life was of so much value to her home and her church, but we will not question God’s wisdom for we i know she has exchanged earth’s dross ; for purest gold. She lived a gentle, ’ I quiet, Christian life, always true to ! her church and its institutes. She ' was a devoted wife and a loving : mother, and her greatest desire was to raise her children to be Christian men and women. May her gentle life and Christian training lead them in the paths of right and meet her in the sweet beyond where parting ; is no more. All her earthly journeys are passed, ' Every tear and pain gone by, ' She has reached that heavenly seat, At the portals of the sky. The church extend to Bro. Stephen son its sympathy. We know we i have lost one of our most honored and loved members, but God’s will be i done. Mrs. A. H. White, Mrs. J. C. Cordle, Mrs. J. D. Kendrick. Committee. In Memeory. Brother C. C. Cordle was born ! in South Carolina 76 years ago and moved to Floyd county, Ga., when he was a child. He was married to i Miss Martha Green in 1855. He : moved to Chattooga county in 1856. He joined the Baptist church at Poplar Springs in August, 1859, and was baptised, he and his wife at the same time, by Bro. Tursell. His wife died in 1869. There were ■ eight children of that union. He I married Mrs. S. E. Herndon in Octo ber, 1875 and was blessed with eight children of this union. Six of his chil dren preceded him in death. Bro. Cordle was a devoted companion, a loving father, a good neighbor, a loyal citizen and a Christian gentleman Fifty years faithful service in old Poplar Springs church makes a won derful record. He loved his church and rejoiced in its service, and lived to see his children all baptised in his church. He was cheerful and temperate and loved his family aud his neighbors. It was no wonder that when he was lying on his death bed he could say. “it is sweet to live, but will be better up there.” Brother Cordle passed away in a good old age, an old man and full of years; and was gathered to his people. He leaves a wife, several sons and daughters, 50 grandchildren, five great grandchildren, and a host of friends to mourn his death. He was buried at South Carolina camp ground. Bro. A. F. Mahan conducted the funeral service. Z. D. Perry, W. R. Stephenson.

IN MEMORY It was June the 17th, 1909, that death came and wafted to regions be yond the spirit of our brother, E. N. Helgwood of Menlo, Ga., after a long and protracted illness. Mr. Heigwood had gone to Look out mountain, near McLemore’s Cove, for his health, but death came a few days after he got there. He died at the home of his son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Gil breath, and was buried according to his request at Mt. Olive cemetery on the mountain. He was a good man and was liked by all. Part of his last words were: “I want you all to meet me up yon der.” How awful it was to his many friends when they heard of his death, but alas! it was true, yet it was only a short step over the river where the blessed Savior in whom he had trusted and served so long in this sinful world and had la bored in his vineyard with me and others to get poor sinners to repent of their sins and seek their Savior. I have known Bro. Heigwood for about forty years and knew him to be a devoted Christian. But his work on earth is done and he is gone, leav ing a wife and nine children, three sons and six daughters, to mourn his loss. But while we miss him so much and his talking so much of his future home and leaving behind that he way was clear we feel and believe that our loss in his eternal gain, and that his spirit is rejoicing with three children and the spirits of all the good and with the blessed Savior who has done so much for us. Bro. Heigwood was 66 years, 5 months and 6 days old, being born the 11th day , of January, 1843, and died the 17th day of June, 1909. 1 I would say to the bereaved weep not for him, for he is so much better of than we, for one minute is worth more to him now than his whole life was here. Only press forward i and be ready when the angel of death shall come to join him in heav en where parting will come no more. Still it is true that a dear friend from us has gone, The voice is stilled that we loved so well, Oh, how me miss him, no tongue can tell. Safe in the arms of Jesus., Safe on his gentle breast, Is our brother rejoicing. Where there is sweetest rest. He has gone from us forever, Gone to live with the angels and with God, His body is sweetly' sleeping. In his grave beneath the sod. Never more on earth we will see him Never more will we see him smile, He has left us how we miss him; But only for a little while. REV. J. M. SIZEMORE. To find the weight of a block of ice without scales, take a rule and measure the three dimensions of the block, in inches. Multiply' the length and breadth and this by the thickness and this will give the number of cubic inches in the piece. Then divide this by 30 and you will have the number of pounds of ice in the block. For instance a piece of ice ten inches by six inches by five inches will weigh 10 pounds. A , piece ten by twelve by ten will weigh 40 pounds. A piece ten by fif teen by ten will weigh 50 pounds. A piece twelve by twelve by twenty will • weigh 100. A little practice will en able one to tell the weight of ice in this manner quicker than one can or dinarily by weighing it. If you are careful in your measurements the re sults obtained may be relied on as correct to the fraction of a pound. People with chronic bronchitis, asth ma and lung trouble, will find great relief and comfort in Foley’s Hon ; ey and Tar, and can avoid suffering by commencing to take it at once. — Sold by all druggists.
