I The Hustler of Rome fails to 1 see wheie any good can come to the Rome public schools, when even little inc’denv transpiring i within the schools ;s to he made statewide sensations.

Let the school’s good cotn“ fi>&t and last and all th time. It’s a very remarkable coinci dence that every time a “special” from Fitzgerald mentions the name of Sidney Lacelies, the ex-convict, the in me of Mayor Goodnow is connected therewith—and it has been repoifed tha’ Mayor Gooc muw is alleged to h .ve stated that La.-v) lies >s as good as th') best citizens of the C doi.-y City.

When the digestion is bad the blood becomes im pure, and is imperfectly supplier! with the food - elements that build up new and healthy tissues, and tdar down, i and carry away those that are inert and half-dead. The nerves • are not rebuilt from day to day with new, vigorous, active fibers. Every organ, tissue, mus- I cle and nerve in the body is half famished ; for healthy nutriment. Almost any dis i ease in the category of human ills may be I the residt of this condition. Most fre j quently it is the most deadly of disorders t —consumption. Sometimes it is some other wasting disease. Again, it may be j scrofula or some skin disease. There is a sure preventive and remedy 1 for these conditions and maladies. It is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It corrects all disorders of the digestion. I It restores the lost or failing appetite and invigorates the liver. It fills the arteries with the pure, rich, red blood of health. It builds new, firm flesh, healthy, active nerve fibers, and strong elastic muscles. It cures 98 per cent, of all cases of con sumption, and wasting diseases. It cures nervous prostration. Druggists sell it. The man who is too lazv or neglectful to take an occasional dose of medicine to ward off the evil effects of constipation deserves to die. And he will surely get his deserts, for constipation is the first cause of much sickness. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipatiou. They never 1 . gripe. One little “Pellet” is a gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic. All good druggists ■ 1 sell them. Ko other pills are as good.

For instance, hi t week I the staff was summoned to meet i in S vannah. It could not be ex pected that tiie Rome, Da'ton, or j North Georgia members wr uld , come all the way to Savannah to; parade But the M aver >ss, Albany. Augusta, and South Gemgia mem bers c.mid turn out. So when the governor goes to North Georgia he is sure of a good c-cort from his staff. The selections are s » made as to insure a certain bodyguard wherever the governor happens to be. There is no appropriation made to defray their expenses. Members of the stuff pay their own wav, hire their own horses, and purchase their own uniforms. So that all the colonels are not ex pected to respond on every occa 8 nas waiti n' officers.
