RIGHT WAY TO LEAN.
This paragraph is from the Sav

“ The edi orial in the Sundays
Constitution is construed into an
indorsement of Hon. Allen I)
Candler for the next G ’verir r ot
Georgia. The Constitution dec ares
that the next campaign is to he an
“old soldiers year m Georgia The
Constitution intimates that Gen
eral Evans will n<>t again be a can
didate for office, but will 'ead the
veterans in their last charge for
the Hall country statesman. The
Constitution has been leaning Cai -
dlerward a long time.”
-The Ishmaelite trusts tha’ the
conjecture as to the Constituti on
in the above paragraph, h correct.
It has supported g'od men for
Governor in the past but never a
worthier < r better one than Allen
I). Candler,it will find the Isbmae

() i Therefore, in saying that he has
been a citizen of this county and
that he is loved and respected by
. many of our leading cilmens, and
that this county and district will
give this tnn and tied old time
Democrat a large majority of the
• votes, is but another -epetiti >n of
an already well known fact, but
many of our renders have for some
time been waiting to find out
j whether or not they you'd have
. the pleasure of supporting the
man of their choice for governor.
It allords us pleasure to have
the opportunity to say that our
peop e of Georgia will have an op
portunity to voti for a man who,
we oe leve, wi 1 to a large ex’ent
purify oar S.ate politics. This
purifier is in our opinion, Hon A.
D. Candler, Our next Governor. —

The Savannah Press says the
divisions of the State into North
South and Middle Georgia are
unfortunate dead lines. Why,
1 L y. persist in keeping up such
divisions by insisting that a
South Georgia man should be
governor? Griffin News.
That is not so ui reasonable as
to insist that the Fourth district

Jj ' nation won't work.
& EasKflsi • Next morning the
g ' '.rk officers can’t get at
' v own money. There
y be millions in the safe.
MS’ i.’.-.t if their credit depended
K.....< J;' on getting at it in a hurry
they would be bankrupt,
simply because the combination won’twork.
A sick man is in very much the same fix
about fitting at the nourishment he needs
to k<-cp him alive. There is plenty of good
food at hand, but his digestive organism is
out of order; the nutritive “combination”
of his syst-m won’t wulk. He can’t possi
bly get at the nourishment contained in the
food. He takes it into his stomach, but it
does him no good. It isn’t made into good
i blood. He is just as badly off as if the
food was locked up where he couldn't touch
it. He gi ts no strength or health out of it.
All these mal-nutritive conditions have a
perfect and scientific remedy in Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery. It puts the nu
tritive “combination” of the system into
perfect working order. ‘lt gives the diges
tive and blood-making organs power to
make pure, red. healthy blood, and pour it
into the circulation abundantly and rapidly.
It drives out all bilious poisons and scrof
ulous germs, cures indigestion, liver com
plaint, nervousness and neuralgia, and
builds up solid flesh, active power and
nerve force.
Mrs. Rebecca P. Gardner, of Grafton, York Co..
Va , writes: ” I was so sick with dyspspsia that I
could not eat anything for over four months. 1
had to starve myself, as nothing would stay on my
stomach. I was so liadly off I could not eat even a
, cracker. I thought I war. going to die. I weighed
only 80 pounds. I tried almost everything,
an<{ nothing did me any good, until I took two
bottles ol the ’ Golden Medical Discovery ' lam
now as well as 1 ever was, and weigh i»s pound*."

Few people have any idea of how
much money is spent by the mun

looking after, the trees which line

trees planted at 87,635, each of
which represents an initial cost of
$35. The annual expenditure for

The most encouraging p rt of
