Silver Threads.Hi Old Maid Gives Advice. The wedding bells have been ringing quite often around here— Harmony Grove. Here is some good advice for the brides: No doubt you would like lo know how to preserve a husband? Be careful in your selection aud do not choose too young. When once selected give all your t noughts to prepare him for domestic uses. Some insist on keeping him in a pickle; others delight in getting them in hot water; those may make them sour, hard and sometimes bitter. liven poor varieties may be made sweet, tender and good by garnishing them with patience, well sweetened with love and seas oned witn kisses. Wrap them in a mantel of charily. Keep warm with a steady fire of domestic de votion and serve with peaches and cream. Thus prepared they will keep for years. Old Maid. [Pardon the Editor for butting into Lhis excellent advice, but he can’t resist the temptation to in quire how, where and when did this adviser get this recipe? He also ventures the suggestion to some gentlemanly Old Bachelor to persuade this womanly Old Maid to try the recipe on him.] Marriages. MILLS COWART.

FACTS DISTORTED TO FOOL FARMERS Facts of Vital Interest to Everybody in Georgia Socialism Will Take Farms After Public Utilities Are Swallowed Up The Municipal League of Georgia says: “From 1910 to 1919, 310,000 horse power were developed by the Hydro-Electric Power Com mission of Ontario.” The Real Facts About Ontario The actual development by the Hy dro-Electric Power Commission in Ontario from 1910 to 1919 was less than 60,000 horse power. The Municipal League of Georgia has much to say about the numbqr of farms in Ontario using the service of the Hydro-Electric Commission of On tario. The facts are that some farmers in Ontario, living within or close to towns or villages are using electric service just as they are in Georgia, but that electric service cannot be furnished to farmers generally be cause of the expensive machinery nec essary to make high tension electric current available on isolated farms. Promises Can’t Be Carried Out None of the promises made by the Municipal League of Georgia to put electric service on the farms can be carried out. These false promises are written simply to get your sup port of their raid on Georgia’s treas ury. Georgia Companies Ahead of Ontario The electric companies in the United States are devoting continuous aitd persistent ef fort to working out a practicable plan of reaching the farm house with elec tric service at a reasonable cost, but the problem has not yet been solved. The companies in Georgia are far ahead of the Ontario public-owned body, and second to none in the United States in the character of equipment and quality of service rendered. The Municipal League of Georgia says: “The public utilities such as gas, water, light and power plants are dif ferent. In them the property of the public is used.” This statement is untrue, and is an other adroit appeal for your support in their proposed -raid on the Georgia Treasury. Huge Cost Will Increase Taxes The facts are that every piece ol property used by a water, gas, light or power plant must be purchased and paid for. The water in the streams cannot be used to generate electricity unless heavy invesftnents are made in dams, machinery and transmission lines. The land that is flooded and the right of way for the transmission lines must be bought and paid for. Will Next Want Free Food Your farm may be called publit property next on the plea that it pro duces food and clothing which cr< public necessities. Tired “I was weak and run-down," relates Mrs. Eula Burnett, of Dalton, Ga. "I was thin and just felt tired, all the time. I didn’t rest well. I wasn't ever hungry. I kpew, by this, I needed a tonic, and as there Is none better than— H ■ f||| 111 The Woman’s Tonic ... I began using Cardul,” continues Mrs. Burnett. “After my first bottle, I slept better and ate better. I took four bottles. Now I’m well, feel just fine, eat and sleep, my skin is clear and I have gained and sure feel that Cardul is the best tonic ever made.” Thousands of other women have found Cardul just as Mrs. Burnett did. it should help you.

Get Your Blood in Good Condition START TAKING PEPTO MANGAN Now Is the Time to Build Up. You Will Be Strong This Winter Every house has a supply of fuel for winter. People know cold weather is coming. They get ready for it. How many people get their own bodies ready for winter? Most of us go around all summer in the in tense heat burning up energy, working hard all day and some times lying awake nights sleepless in the heat. Winter comes along. It catches many people totally unprepared physically. Few of us take stock of our health. AVhether we will be well, healthy and strong, we often leave too much to chance. But not everybody. Nowadays people are learning. They know this matter of enjoying good health is a tiling they can help control. If you live right, eat right,get plenty of sleep, breathe fresh air and keep your blood'in good condition, you will be all right. It is so simple. If you feel a little off in health —perhaps worn out and pale —don’t take chances. There’s no need of it. Buy some l’epto Alangan of your druggist. Begin taking it to day. You eau get it in liquid or tablet form. Tell your druggist which you pre fer. But to be certain that you get the genuine Repto-Jdangan; ask for it by the full name — “Glide’s Pepto-Mangau.” Look for the name “Glide’s” on the package. —Advertisement.
