This seems to he an unsettled time in this district when it comes to Congressional hon ors, Hon. Gordon Lee might as well consent to the wishes of his many friends, and set aside all this un certainty.—Buchanan News. It is estimated that the sum of 170,000,000, is spent annually in the construction of public high ways in this country. Os this great sum of money It is safe to say that two-thirds of it is mis spent; that is to say, it has not been spent In away to produce the kind of results possible to obtain from its investment. This is largely the re sult of lack of proper information and experience In metheods of work. One of the very first things that county commissioners ought to do Is to have a good map of the county shewing location as adl the public roads in It. A study of the topogra phy of th*« county is also essential. In the hnpsovement of the roads se lected it is expedient to make such changes as will avoid going over the tops of the hills. It sosts no more to bslld around a hill than it does to go over the top of it, and Mie dis tance Is usually not greater. By building around a hill the road can be made practically on a plane, thus saving much wear and tear.. In planning the building of high ways n good idea is to make the county town the central place from which to make the roads radiate as mala arteries; then build cross-roads as feeders to these main traveled highways,—Progressive Farmer. ■— " ' ■■■ • Georgia Boy Gets $4,000,000.

There is probably no part of their business in which the farmers of the south have suffered more severe ly than in their failure to pay the cash down at the time purchases are made. The credit system is so fas tened upon us and has become such I a large and important part of our j whole business system that many ! farmers will feel that they must con tinue to buy on credit a large part ’of the year; but this buying on credit will have to be stopped before we shall ever buy ‘o the best advantage. The man who buys for cash is en ' titled to and receives exemption from those charges which are legiti ! mately a part of the selling price .! of poods sold on time. These are I extra cost for book-keeping and col lecting; the amounts necessary to re imburse the merchants on the ac counts of those who never pay; and the interest on the amount of the I purchases for the time for which I credit is extended. These are fixed j charges on the credit system and so long as we permit these extra charge s to be added to our purchases we can • never buy to the best advantage. I There are several ways by which these useless charges connected with buying on credit are avoided. By the practice of extreme econo- Imy for one or two years some are able to so “catch up" financially as i to enable them to afterwards pay cash -for the things purchased. This is a heoric method, but if none other is ’possible, the suffering and inconven fence which it brings are probably justified by the advantages resulting from buying only for cash. Others have found it economical to borrow and pay interest on the necessary money to pay cash for the things which must be purchased, finding that the interest charges on the bor rowed money are less than those | against purchases made on credit. The most promising method for I generally avoiding the buying of supplies on credit is, probably a di versification of crops, which will not only lessen the amounts needed to pay for necessary purchases, and dis tribute them throughout the year because of the better distribution of labor, but will also afford products i for marketing at all seasons. The making of purchases on credit is ' much easier avoided when farm pro -1 ; ducts are available for marketing at ’all times than when only one crop like cotton is sold, and that only dur ing the last two or three months of the year.—Progressive Farmer.

X i THE FARM BOY’S CHANCES. 1 . But what inducements does the i business of farming in the south i hold out to the strong, ambitious boy? Why, about just everything. - 1 Do people talk about the greater op portunities of twenty years ago for s the young man who would make a b success in agriculture. Just laugh ■i a' them, for there was never such an s j opportunity in the history of the ages as stands beckoning to the y | young man on the farm today. We g I have just begun to study the science s. of agriculture—are just beginning v ito find out that ours is a business y 1 that requires brains to handle, and s the young man of today is training g his brain in the line of his business. ■ What this brain force means to the e agriculture of the south we will be- i gin to realize within ten years. r I tell you, boys, I wish for no >f greater pleasure than to be privileg- I ed to go along with you for the next t few years and see the things that ap o plied science will bring about on i- your farms, for it is going to be r something worth while. We are go lf ing to see our ten-bushel wheat crops s increased to twenty and from twenty e to thirty. Our twelve and fifteen s bushel corn crops are going to fifty. >- and some of you are not going to be .1 content with less than one hundred p bushels per acre; and our third-of-a '- bale of cotton are going right •f up to a bale per acre, and then to two bales. Our beautiful Southern country y will be cleared of brush and briars, y her soils filled full to bursting with i- humus.

SUBLIGNA , The writer was mistaken about there being preaching here last Sun day. It is next Sunday morning also on Saturday before at 11. Mr. Jay Fowler of Lafayette was here Monday. The people of this place were made , sad Sunday by the news of the death . of Mr. Carl O'Barr which occurred, at his home near Trion. Carl isi not dead but asleep in Jesus, where j 'we all will be some sweet day. He ; I was loved by all who knew him. He has lived here at Subligna a long . time until he move to Trion, some . time last year. Carl was such a , good boy we ought not to mourn af ter him because God knoweth best. But it is sad to give up our loved | ones. We sympathize with the be-1 i reaved ones. He leaves, s ‘a father, mother. brother, sis- ters, wife and two precious little’ ones to mourn his death. The funer- j ■ al was held at Bethlehem church on Monday afternoon. Bro. McKinzie preached the funeral sermon. Carl was a good Christian boy. professed I a hope in Christ when quite young I and lived a faithful member until his j : death. He was an Odd Fellow of i . this lodge, so they placed his body . in the cold earth. ‘ An Enjoyable Occasion. . | One of the most enjoyable affairs 11 ever given in Menlo, was the Hal- I lowe’en party at Mr. and Mrs. W. F. • I Polks. The ghosts began to walk at j rather an early hour, but being set free on this “night of nights.” they : felt free to roam at will and as even i “ghost minds seem to run in the same channel,” they all wended their way to the same place. Miss Effie : Polk did not seem to fear her weird : visitors for she gave them a kindly i welcome at the door and bade them ■ enter. That they might feel no re straint, this palatial home had been t prepared for their coming. The cur- ■ tains were drawn, everything was dark without. The front porch was -: lighted with two jack-o-ianterns i placed in “grinning” pumpkins. As t you entered the reception hall a dim i light shown from skulls, The ghosts • began to feel at home and wandered i thro’ halls and parlors, finding in every nook and corner, relics from their own haunts. Bats, witches, bones and black cats, made them feel at home, and soon “ghost eyes looked love to eyes that spake again. ! and all went solemn as a funeral 1 knell,” for no word was spoken, no ’ sound heard, save the occasional “gig ■ ’ gle” of a white robed vision as it flitted by. After a couple of hours spent in 1 “silent communion,” dainty hand -1 painted cards, emblematic of the day, 1 were passed to each and as soon ! as each state found its capital, the ' signal for unmasking was given and ' masks were thrown back amid shouts of laughter, for no one had been able ’ to find out the other one, so com ’ plete the disguise and excellent the 1 acting. As soon as we were suffi ’ ciently recovered from our laughter we were invited into a ’specially pre pared room to have our fortunes told After this the full lights were turn ed on, revealing the most beautiful ’ decoration of autumnal leaves and harvests. Many games were arrang " ed for our amusement and the hours flew by on winged feet, and all too 1 soon we found we must go home, ' for ghosts dare not walk on Sunday. Delicious refreshments were served ’ Black coffee, Devil’s Cake and Pea nut sandwiches. 1 We have no desire to forget such ■ a delightful occasion,- nor could we ’ if we would. Our hearts are lighter, 1 and our days much brighter since 1 we mingled with those of earth once more. ’ A. GHOST. r In Memory of John W. Wafford. i After an illness of only twelve days ' Mr. John W. Wafford departed this 1 life on September 14th, 1909. He was a well known citizen in Chattoo ga county. He was born and~ rais ed near Menlo. At the age of 19 he was married to Miss Ella Fow ler of Cherokee county. At the age of 23 years he united himself with the Baptist church. He was a devot ed husband, a kind and loving fath er and a true and devoted citizen, always willing and ready to visit the sick and lend a helping hand to those that were in need. He leaves a wife, five children, a father, four brothers and two sisters to deeply mourn his death. His children be ing Mrs. L. A. Farr, of Edna, Tex as; Mrs. H. L. Edwards, Lyerly, Ga.; Mrs. L. O. Harris, Edna, Texas, Miss Bessie and Clarence Wafford, of Ly- , erly. It is hard to give up a kind and i true friend but God’s will must be done. We can only look forward and prepare for the time when we hope to meet in that upper and better kingdom where no more sad parting come. His body was laid to rest in the Lyerly cemetery on September 17th. One precious to our hearts has gone, The voice we loved is stilled; The place made vacant in our home, Can never more be filled. Our father in his wisdom called, The boon His love had given; And though on earth the body lies, The soul is safe in Heaven.

Catarrh of the Stomach j a Prevalent Disease Difficult to Relieve, j A PROMPT AND EFFICIENT \ i i\ o i’ii i ' ' Mr. S. W. Jackson, 815 Weaver Block, , Greenville, Ohio, says: “While I was superintendent of construction of J. F. Bender and Bros.’ Co., of Hamilton, Ohio, I became entirely unfit for busi ness with catarrh of the stomach. “A friend called my attention to a remedy for this condition. I began to improve at once. I was soon able to re turn to my former profession. “It would require many pages to de scribe the condition I was in and the re lief I have obtained.” Here is another case. Officer George Y. Stout, 724 North Broadway, Balti more, Md., says: “I suffered very much with catarrh of the stomach and ner vous indigestion. I lost fifty pounds in ■ four months. “A friend called my attention to a ! remedy, which I used, and gradually got well. I have gained half my lost weight back again.” Chronic Stomach Trouble. . Mr. Robert J. Gillespie, 636 South Main St., Los Angeles, Cal., secretary j of Lather’s International Union, was also suffering from catarrh of the stom ach a long time. He grew thinner and paler, lost all ambition and appetite. I Sick at the stomach, indigestion con tinually. A friend also called his attention to a remedy, which brought about a de ’ cided improvement. After continuing the use of the remedy for a month, he considers himself permanently relieved. Now, once more. Mr. Christian Hof man, Slatington, Pa., says he suffered for many years with catarrh of the stomach. It produced a miserable cough, day and night. He tried doctors and many remedies. A* I 4B * his atten i tion was called to a remedy, the same ! remedy that relieved the others which have been referred to above. He claims that he was entirely rid of his stomach j difficulty.

If the truth were known, the proba bilities are that Peruna has relieved as many cases of catarrh of the stomach as any other popular remedy in exis tence. We have a great many unsolic ited testimonials from all parts of the United States, declaring in strong and enthusiastic terms that Peruna has en tirely relieved them of catarrh of the stomach, that they were wretched and miserable beyond words, but Peruna has restored them to health, vigor and happiness. These are the facte. Now, if you have stomach difficulty, it is up to you to act upon them or ignore them, as you please. Symptoms of Stomach Catarrh. “The affection may result from errors in diet, or the use of alcohol. The ex cessive use of tobacco, especially when the juice or the leaves are swallowed, is likely to cause it. ' “Highly seasoned or coarse, irritating foods, sometimes induce the disease. “As chronic gastritis (catarrh of the stomach) is essentially a secondary affection, one of the primary causes is an unhealthy state of the mouth, nose or throat, such as bad teeth or catarrh of the nose (ozena). “The patients are nsually poorly nourished, pale, sallow, thin, fatigue easily induced, muscles flabby. Lose of appetite or capricious appetite. “The tongue is usually coated brown ish gray. Cankered mouth is a com mon occurrence. “Pain is not common. When present it is nsually dull, and is aggravated by food, especially when this is ot an irn tating character. “Vomiting may occur in the morning. Also after meals. Sickness to the stom ach frequent and persistent. “Food produces dull headache, and a feeling of general nervous distress. Constipation usually quite marked.” These symptoms, given by Gould and Pyle, coincide exactly with the frequent descriptions Dr. Hartman is receiving from patients all over the United States. If you have any of these symptoms get a bottle of Peruna. Take a dose be fore each meal. See if your stomach does not immediately feel better, your appetite improve, your digestion at once resume business. People who object to liquid medicines : can now secure Peruna tablets.
