Laxative combination
folks know is trustworthy
The confidence thousands of par
ents have in good, old reliable, pow
dered Thedford’s Black-Draught has
prompted them to get the new Syrup
of Black-Draught for their children.
The grown folks stick to the pow
dered Black-Draught; the youngsters
probably will prefer it when they
outgrow their childish love of sweets.
Mrs. C. W. Adams, of Murray, Ky„
writes: “I have used Thedford’s
Black-Draught (powder) about thir
teen years, taking it for biliousness.
Black-Draught acts well and I am
always pleased with the results. I
wanted a good, reliable laxative for
my children. I have found Syrup of
Black-Draught to be just that."

Smith-O-GraphQ
By L. C. SMITH. M
“I’m glad the election is over,” is
a popular expression these days.
The Russell-Talmadge race proved
that you can never tell what will hap
pen in politics. Most everybody pre
dicted that this would be a close
race, and it turned out to be anything
but close.
“Competition is the life of trade”
is an old saying. With competition the
power companies are saying: “Let
there be more light,” and they are
putting the slogan into use by giving
rural homes electric lights. If there
is any class of people who deserve
electric lights it is the farmer who
has to get up before daylight in the
morning and work until after dark j
in the evening.
We are sure Governor-Elect Rivers
will make us a good governor and :
will try to carry out the many cam
paign promises he made. Some are ;
already predicting that if he fails to
carry out his promises and attempts j
to raise the price of automobile fags i
and put more taxes on the people Eu
gene Talmadge will go back in the
governor’s chair at the end of Gov.
Rivers’ first term.
A person should never ride in an
automobile with an arm hanging
over the side of the car. This was i
proven last Sunday, when a man near
Dalton, who was driving with his arm
resting in the window of the car, was
side-swiped by a truck. His arm was
crushed between his car and the j
truck and he died a few moments!
later from loss of blood.
We will soon be bidding farewell ■
to the “good old summer time,” and,
while most of us have complained ofl
the summer’s heat, we will not give i
“Old Man Winter” a very enthusias
tic welcome, especially if it going to
be as cold as it was last winter. And
old-timers say we may as well .pre
pare for another bad winter, because |
the corn has an unusually heavy
shuck on it, there is an uncommonly !
heavy crop of acorns and every lit- j
tie persimmon bush is loaded down
with fruit, and if you don’t believe
there is a big crop of beggarlice just I
take a walk through the fields and ;
woods. All these things, it is claimed, 1
are certain indications of a hard
winter.
Georgia will have a chance to try |
out a “cornerback” administration,
beginning next year. Quite a few of
the officials of the state who had
been elected by the people and were
“fired” by Gov. Talmadge scored a
real “cornerback” in last week’s pri
mary—and Gov. Talmadge won’t djp
able to “fire” them this time, Be
cause when they go in he will go Out.
Some times we wonder if we real
ly are living in a better age. Not so
many years ago we had “big court”
twice a year and unusually the dock
ets were cleared in two or three
days’ time. Now we have court three
times a year (and some times more)
and from two to three weeks are re
quired to dispose of the cases, and
th<m many of them are postponed
until the next term.
We are aware that right now Gov.
Talmadge has lots of critics. But we
are also aware of the fact that he did
many good official acts during his
administration. We are of the opin
ion that Mr. Talmadge’s greatest
mistake was his attitude toward
President Roosevelt and his adminis
tration. That Gov. Talmadge is a re
markable person cannot be denied.
A Booby Prize
A woman in this town declared that if her husband
doesn’t behave better she is going to offer him as a
Bridge Prize at her next party. j
We don’t know what he has been doing, but we’ll
bet he hasn’t a good-sized bank account. Men who
are hustlers, good providers, money-makers, are nev
er offered as prizes at a bridge party—you may bank
on that. t i L . . 1
