To The Herald: Most of us are familiar with the lines “Who glveth himself with his Bift helps three: Himself, his hungry neighbor and Me." Comparatively few seek to understand them. • The generally accepter idea of “charity" is alms-giving. When ap pealed to for asistance the natural Impulse i& to give, not that giving of self which a comprehensive study of each case would demand, but the giv ing of material aid; instinctively the hand seeds the purse and aid is given as carelessly, as thoughtlessly as some give sugar plains to a child simply to get rid of him for the time, with no thought, of possible consequences and the conscience is salved with the fal lacy that “it is better to give to many who are unworthy than let one worthy go unaided.” ORGANIZED CHARITY KNOWS NO SUCH DISTINCTION AS “WORTHY” AND "UNWORTHY.” Relief is given in all cases of actual want.' according to the needs and ability to help himself regardless of the worthiness or unworthiness of the applicant, and is withheld only in cases of chronic beggars who WILL NOT HELP THEMSELVES. Ruskin says: “To give alms is noth ing unless you give thought also; ♦Jierefore it is not written: blessed is /e that feedth the poor, but BLESS ED IS HE THAT CONSIDERETH 'THE POOR. A little thought of kind ness is often worth more than a great deal of money. —DIRECTORS of THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES OF AUGUSTA. ABOUT HATS IN THEATERS.

If Constipated, Sluggish, Head achy, take a spoonful of “Dodson’s Liver Tone” I.lsten to me! Take no more sick ening, salivating calomel when bilious or constipated. Don't lose a day's work! Calomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel, when it comes Into contact with sour bile crashes Into it, breaking It up. This is when you feel that awful nausea and cramping. If you are slug gish and "all knocked out," If your er is torpid and bowels constipated ob you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, If breath Is bad or stomach sour Just take a spoonful of harmless Dodson's Diver Tone. Here’s my guarantee—Go to any drug store and get a 50-cent bottle of Dodson’s Diver Tone. Take a spoonful GEORGIA MAR IS RESCUED FROM DREAOFUL AFFLICTION IN TIME Resident of Woodstock Finds Himself Restored After His Physicians Failed. T. A. Dewis, who lives out on Rout# S.

Then he tried Mayr's Wonderful •lomach Remedy Just as It always •Kees, the first dose proved to him 'what could be done for his ailment. He took the full teratment; then wrote: "I have taken your wonderful stomach remedy and am feeling better than I have felt In four years. "Your remedy does Just what you claim It will do.

I made a special visit to the Dreamland Theater for the pur pose of observing what steps are taken to have the above mentioned hats removed. My observations -were as I will lay down in the following paragraph: When a lady comes In and takes her seat without removing her hat the usher, with his eyes on some man who may be slightly bald says in a clear voice, "Please remove your hat.” The young man with the girl (if there is one) will generally say, “Kitty, take off your hat. didn't you hear what the usher said.” She will say, "Yes, I heard him, but he wasn’t talking to me." And there you are. I would suggest twith due apologies to the Optimist of Friday’s edition), that the usher, when the lady is seat ed, to ask her In polite way to “Please remove your hat.” I don’t think they tonight and if it doesn’t straighten you right up and make you feel fine and vigorous by morning I want you to go back to the store and get your money. Dodson’s Diver Tone Is destroying the sale of calomel beause It Is real liver medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore it can not salivate or make you sick. I guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson’s Diver Tone will put your sluggish liver to work and clean your bowels of that sour bile and consti pated waste which is clogging your system and making you feel miserable. I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson’s Diver Tone will keep your entire family feeling fine for months. Give It to your children.

This Is the medicine so many of our people have been taking with aurprlsing results. The most thorough system cleanser we ever sold. Mayr's Wonderful Htomach Remedy is now sold here by T. G.

A GREATER AUGUSTAN. To The Herald: I see your correspondents have start ed writing to you in an optimistic vein. Excellent. Now we shall have psalms instead of dirges. Your correspond ent who calls himself a “Yankee” has got the proper spirit. As he very Justly remarks, we cannot expect to have all prosperous years. Such a thing is unheard of in the agricul tural world. What If cotton Is away dawn this year. We have had plenty of good years. Besides, nobody Is go ing to starve. We are not confront ed with a famine. There are fat years and lean years The man who has not been able to luy up enough during all the fat years tlit we have had to tide him over the present lean year is, as your corre spondent says, a failure. He ought to give up farming and try something else. Of course hard times are hard. But, even at that, the present times are not so insufferably hard. Cotton is going up slightly now with the Ger man market assured to us by England. The reserve banks are, we read, going to “benefit the South” by making mon ey less tight. Altogether It seems that everything that is being done Just now Is going to "benefit the South.” Fur thermore, we at least have 16,000,000 bales of cotton, which, if sold at five cents a pound, would bring $400,000,- 000. This is very nearly a bale of cotton for every person, both white and colored, In the cotton belt. Don’t Imagine that I am a person who owns no cotton and can therefore afford to "talk big.” I aim hit very hard by the war. But lam apparent ly going to survive It I should hate to be prosperous and smug at this time, when I know that so many mil lions of people In the world are In the cltches of death and despair. J. L.

GEORGIA FARMERS URGED TO BREAK AWAY FROM ONE CROP Commissioner of Agriculture J. D. Price Declares It’s Time For Them to Substitute Grain For Cotton---Says Com mercial Organizations Should Take Strenuous Action. Strenuous and immediate action by farmers, bankers, railroad men, brok ers, warehousemen and commercial organizations to change Georgia from a one-crop cotton state to a state pro ducing on a large scale, wheat, corn, oats, hogs and cattle is urged by J. D. Price, commissioner of agriculture, says The Atlanta Journal of Friday. “There is no sense In talking of large diversified crops and extensive livestock raising unless facilities are provided for handling and marketing the new crops and the stock," 'said Commissioner Price. “There are now, and have been for years past, warehouses in every town in Georgia where a farmer can go in the spring of the year and borrow money on his growing crop. And this has invariably been cotton. The far mer has been taught to raise more and more cotton. Each year he Increases his crop, and borrows money on the In crease. Cotton has represented to him money, food, clothing, amusements, everything. “What I want to see under the pres ent conditions Is this: Grain ware houses all over the state, conducted like cotton warehouses In the past, with adequate arrangements for hand ling grain in large quantities. When the spring of the year comes and the farmer harvests his grain, he should be able to load up his wagons, drive to the warehouse and get a small ad vancement of money on his crop. Just as he did with cotton. The grain can then stay in the warehouse until the farmer gets his proper price for It, as he did with cotton. “Georgians have rightly spent their energies so far In discouraging the planting of more cotton and In urging the planting of grain —let’s now go further than that—lers get our neafls together and arrange to find a market for all the grain we can possibly raise. "Someone will say that he can sell everything he raises right here In Georgia. I fully agree with him. I fully agree that everybody would rather buy home products Instead of foreign. Rut we must arrange things ro the grain buyer can buy at home when he wants lo buy. "Today a wholesale dealer in At lanta or In another large town who wants grain by the carload knows he can buy any number of carloads from the West, and that they will be ship per to him at once, lie would rather buy large orders of Georgia grain, hut he knows of no place and there Is none where he can put In an order for carloads of It and be sure of prompt fulfillment. Ho he naturally .■gem from the West, He must Change tills If We expect to he sue eeesful In raising grain as a major crop Let’s start changing these con ditions now; let’s establish grain mar kets In Georgia, from which the broker, next spring, can get any num ber of carloads he wants at a mo ment’s notice. "Many Georgians have already done alt In iheir power to remedy the emergency cotton situation the In auguration of the buy-a-bale move ment is a good example of this- - and others are already talking of loans on grains. '“Wheat sold for 92 cents a bushel at the beginning of the European wur; it has now gone to $1.12, and Is dally increasing In price. War Helps Westerners. "Western farmers are even now holding for $1.25. The war means prosperity for them, and for the cat tlemen at a time when so many other Americans are facing great financial loss. The war will likewise mean prosperity for Georgia farmers, if they have grain and cattle to sell in the spring, when prices will be still higher. Wheat fields generally yield ing twice as much as those of the United States are now standing In Europe and In Rosslan-Asla with rot ting grain. "With Georgia's climate, furnishing green forage all through the winter, as contrasted with conditions on the snow-bound plains of some of the great western cattle states, finer and better cattle and other stock can be raised here than in the west, and for less cost. Statistics show that the south consumes more meat per person than any other section of the country, and produces less. That fact alone should be Incentive enough to the far mer to raise cattle and hogs. In ad dition to this, with men like George L. McCarthy, secretary of the American A City or Country Salesman Should Have This Cycle Car It is practical, easy running, high speed. Upkeep cost is practically nothing. Will sell at immense bargain. Apply T. C. BRYAN, Business Office, Augusta Herald. Meat Packers’ Association, stating that the entire world faces a shortage of the meat supply ns a result of the war, Georgia farmers will he almost criminally negligent to themselves and their families If they hesitate longer to invest In hogs and cattle. "In regard to cotton. To nil who are thinking of running their cotton farms and raising cotton for another year, my advice is this: Ruy cotton now, and, If you won't raise grain and live stock, sit down and do nothing for a year for you cannot possibly make money rnlslng cotton under the pres ent conditions."
