Certainly you don’t want to suffer with

I think Rev. Mr, Weaver hit some of
the hard eases of Morgan a pretty good
rap in his Sunday morning s sermon.
Mr. Bob, Colson was compelled to
bang out some of his best clothing for
an airing Tuesday .morning. On the
road from Williamsburg to Morgan
Monday night he ran up with some per
fume of the pole cat variety, hence the
airing.
It is all a mistake about our editor
being dead from tiic effects of a “cracked
skulL”—he was too hard headed. It is
dangerous for a piece of hard wood to
come violently in contact with said head
for fear of injuring tire wood and
wielder.
Small precautions often prevent great
mischiefs. DeWitt’s Little Early Risers
are very small pills in si ;e, but are most
effective in preventing the most serious
forms of liver and lung troubles. They
cure constipation and headache and regu¬
late the bowels. Mrs. S. T. Clayton, Mor-
gan; P. E, Boyd, Leary; 1 leery Turner,
Edison.
1 Went to Leary.
Last Saturday morning the writer
was asked by Mr. Tom Plowden, our
clever county treasurer, to take a
seat in his buggy for a visit to Leary.
On our way we talked stock law,
county politics and a heaps of things
too numerous to meutiou.
At Leary Mr. Plowden dropped,
me and I sailed in to see my friends
and hustle for Calhoun’s paper.
I called on Dr. Terry and learned
that on last Friday Charlie Anthony,
a colored youth, accidently shot a
little Negro girl through the shoulder.
The wound was dressed by Dr. Terry,
and is not considered dangerous.
Said accident happened on Boyd’s
Holt place.
I went in to see Captain Boyd.
You know he is always busy, but
never fails to spare a moment to his
guests, lie told me that he had just
lost one of his fine matched gray
horses, but ho took consolation in the
fact that the Morgan district had
cauied the stock law by a safe ma¬
jority. After buying two pair of
shoes on credit from one of the Cap¬
tain’s clever and wide awake clerks,
I hunted up Dr. Griffin and began
negotiations for * linnet'. Doe knew
I was “strapped’ and made me feel
good by saying “.lie Griffin house
always finds it a pleasure in giving a
newspaper mau a square meal, .es¬
pecially our county editor.” So at
I lie proper hour, in company with
Dr. Griffin, I was soon seated at the
table. After partaking of all the
breads, meats and delicacies of the
season that within my power lay, I
was shorn around the premises.
The Griffin House is o .e of the most
popular hosieries in South Georgia,
and upon the pages of its register
can be read the names of people from
ail quarters of the globe.
Mr. Dolph Hammond had just re-
turned'from Macon and could not
talk advertising for telling me about
the carnival.
Clever Sid Keel wanted to pay me
for an advertised letter list, but I ins
formed him that our editor never
took money from a postmaster.
l T ou alTknow that Tom Jordan had
to mix me up one of his favorite bev¬
erages, for he said I could not “navi¬
gate” without it.
Mr. A. J. Dixon and his clover
clerks were hustling for the niekles
and dimes, while Mrs. Dixon was her
millinery business.
The Leary people like the Moni¬
tor and love our editor, but they just
won’t advertise.

Yellow Fever Prevented.
There is only one sure way of provont-
ing yellow fever Destroy the germs of
the disease by using Casearets, Candy
Cathartic, and keep the system clean by
continuing their use. The tried and test¬
ed safeguard against yellow fever is to
place your faith in Casearels. lOe, 25c,

Council Meets.
From Mayor L. G. Oartlege we learn
that at a council meeting hold last Friday
preparations were made for the bill or¬
ganizing a dispensary in Morgan, and
Col. J. J. Bock, G. W. Colly and T. W.
Tinsley to be named as tho hoard of
commissioners to organize and start the
enterprise, they to select and employ a
clerk, and to be empowered to elect their
own successor.
This is a movement that the Monitor,
together with almost the unanimous voice
of our citizens, wish to sec carried
through—a well regulated town dispen¬
sary put into operation as soon as pos¬
sible. Orders were passed to payJ.A.
Thornton $250 on the school house con-
tract.the new house having been accepted
by the building committee, and to pay
for the painting of the house, a sum of
thirty dollars.
Our conucilmcn arc working harmoui-
onsly for the improvement of the the
town, this years work Indy demonstrat-
ing the fact.

complish muccli In this world while suffer-
