To prevent a cold take 666.
I»e sure to read the advertise
ments appearing in the special
column.
Mrs. G. 11. Mingledorff is enjoy
ing the pleasant visit of her mother,
Mrs. Crum, from Jackson, Ga.
There is a probability of aehange
being made in the hour of holding
the Baptist Sunday-School. It is
suggested to change it from 3.30
p. m. to 11 a. in.
666 quickly relieves a cold.
The nearer the Atkinson county
court house reaches completion,
the better pleased are citizens who
go to see it with their investment
in a temple of just ice.
Regular spring weather is pre
valent now in Atkinson county
and all fruit t rees are beginning to
bud and blossom. If it continues
the farmers will soon be seeding
their crops.
M rs. C. H. Shaw, of Willacoo
ehee, has just undergone an opera
tion for appendicitis in a Way cross
hospital, and the Tribune is pleas
ed to say she is rapidly recovering
from the shock.
The first Monday brought many
citizens to Pearson, the county
seat, to attend Ordinary's court,
meeting of the County Commis
sioners, Hoard of Education and to
do necessary shopping.
Afew doses 666 break a cold.
The Seventh grade pupils at the
Pearson High School will entertain
their parents, patrons and friends
of the school tonight with a neat
and laughable comedy, the title to
which has not been given out. A
small admission fee will be charged
to cover the expenses.
The bell at the Methodist church
is out of gear some way and the
pastor and his congregation have
decided to dispense with the use
of the bell altogether. The county
clock will be “marking time" be
fore a very great while, then all
Other bells will be susperceded.
Elder N. <l. Christopher filled
his appointments With the Baptist
church last Sunday. His text for
the morning sermon was “Never
man spake as this man”; for the
evening sermon his text was “How
shall we escape if we neglect so
great salvation”. Both sermons
were evangelistic in character and
strong appeals to the unsaved to
accept < hlist as their personal
Savior. The congregations were
large and attentive.
Rub-My-Tism relieves Rheu

Juice from the Pearson Electric
Light plant was turned on Wed
nesday night and those of our citi
zens w ho have had their homes and
places of business wired and con
nected are now' enjoying the con
veniences of electric lights. Owing
to some undiscovered defect in the
street system the lighting of the
streets have been delayed. This
will be remedied in a few' days.
The water plant w ill" also be in op
eration as soon as the necessary
plumbing can be done. Ihe ma
chinery at the power house is run
ning smoothly and perfectly, with
Mr. J. E. I ,ee in charge. Pearson j
is growing slowly but surely.
ATTENTION FARMERS.
A mass meeting of the farmers
of Atkinson county has been call
ed for tomorrow (Saturday). The
meeting will be held in the Pear
son School auditorium at 11 o’clock,
a. m.
The meeting is called, with the
sanction of Gov. Dorsey, for the
purpose of discussing a number of
questions of vital importance to
farmers. The Tribune hasn’t the
space to enumerate these questions,
but it will suffice to say that they
are questions of importance and
interest. The Editor.
An Old Bible.
An esteemed fellow-citizen of
Pearson, Mr. J. M. Cribb, owns and
possesses one of the oldest Bibles
in existence, and certainly the old
est in this section of country.
The editor had heard of this old
book and Mr. Cribb did him the
favor of bringing it to the Tribune
office for inspection and review.
It may be that the readers of
the Tribune may feel a doubt in
their mind w hen they arc told that
the book in question is the identi
fied family bible of Sir William
Penn, the Quaker, in honor of
whom the State of Pennsylvania
is named. It contains William
Penn’s family record —when he was
born, when his wife was born, the
date of the birth of their son and
only child. The record was made
with a goose-quill pen.
All the information Mr. Cribb
has in regard to its being here
and in his possession can be told
in a few words, the most of it is
from tradition, and is as follows:
The father of Hon. Leon A. Wil
son, of Waycross, did a mercantile
business at Waresboro many years
ago, brought it to Waresboro from
New York; it is supposed he bought
it from a second-hand book-store
in New York, where you can pur
chase such old relies. It came in
to the possession of Mr. Cribb’s fa
ther, whether by gift or purchase
is not remembered. Messrs. Wil
son and Cribb were great friends,
and it is presumed the latter per
suaded the former out of it, to be
held as a relie.
The old book is a curiosity to
the present generation. It is from
old English type —the letters "S”
and “K” being similar to each other
and the younger set cannot read it
without difficulty,
This old Bible contains the six
books known as the Apoerapha, in
these days discarded from our
Bible because of doubtful authen
ticity. Whether authentic or not
the editor of the Tribune lias al
ways regarded the “Prayer of Man
asseh,” w hile a captive in Babylon,
included in these six doubtful
writings, as the most pathetic coil
fessions of a penitent sinner ever
uttered by mortal tongue, and
would be helpful to anyone to read
and study it.
This old Bible has been handled
much and is now' in a bad state of
preservation.
The First Monday!
In Georgia the first Monday in
the month is a busy day in official
circles in the several counties, it
calls many people to the county
scat.
It is the time for the holding of
the Court of Ordinary, having pro
bate jurisdiction in matters per
taining to estates of decedents.
This court has the custody and
control of orphan minor children
and their estates, and sees that
they have proper guardians.
The court of the Commissioners
of Roads and Revenues is also held
on the first Monday. It sees to
the collection and disbursement of
all revenues of the county. It also
has charge of the marking out and
building all highways, bridges and
other public utilities.
The county Board of Education
meets on the first Monday to look
after the educational interests of
the county; to see that the schools
are supplied with proper teachers
and that all proper rules and regu
lations are observed by the teach
ers. The Board also looks after
the financial end and see that the
teachers are paid promptly if poss
ible.
The Tribune is glad to say that
all these interests, so far as Atkin
son county is concerned, are in the
hands of men who can be relied on
to do their whole duty, looking to
the good of the county.

TO PRETTY FACES
Thu Charm of Gaud Health Has Its
Source in Rice Red Blood. Nothing on
Earth so Necessary for Beauty
PEPTO MANGAN BUILDS RED BLOOD
Restores the Giiaiity of Your Blood
Brings Bach Your Color and
Renews Vitality
Personal charm is like a light, It
sheds its rays everywhere. Is the
light of your personal charm hid
den under t he bushel of bad blood;
instead of habitual smiles do you
wear a tired 100k —-almost a scowl?
l)o you tire easily? Are you pale
and lacking in vital energy and
ambition?
You are not really ill. Your blood
lias become weak and sluggish, it
is half starved. What you need is
the bloodmaking qualities of that
splendid tonic, Pepto-Mangan.
After you have taken Pepto-Man
gan a little while you will feel a
big improvement. The smiles will
come back. People will see a diff
erence in you. You will make
friends again. You will have plenty
of rich, rod blood and feel stronger.
Pepto-Mangan lias been building
red blood for years. Physicians
prescribe it right along. It has
just the ingredients that starved
blood needs. Sold in liquid and
tablet form. Both have the same
effect. But be sure you get the
genuine Pep to Mangaii. Ask for
"Glide’s” and be sure that the full
name, "< t tide's Pepto-Mangan." is
on the package. —Advertisement.

BIG EGG YIELD
“From a small flock of I now get
20 to 25 eggs pm day, whereas be
fore giving them Hr. HoG oar's
Poultry Prescription, I only receiv
ed three or four. Its cost has-been
rapid to me over and over.” So
writes Mrs. J. W. Montgomery,
Tunnel! Hill, Ga.
You should increase your yield
now, while prices are high, through
Dr. GcGear’s Poultry Prescription.
It, is a tonic which builds up the
hen’s strength and vitality and
stimulates the egg-producing or
gans.
For 28 years Dr. LoGear lias
been recognized as America's fore
most Expert Poultry Breeder and
Veterinarian. Any time your poul
try or stock are ailing, it will pay
you to get the proper Dr. LeGear
Remedy from your dealer. It must
give satisfaction, or your dealer
will refund your money. —Advt.
The Bankrupt Sale.
The bankrupt estate of A. Cohen,
trading as The Boston Store, was
sold at auction Wednesday morn
ing by the trustee, <). W. Frank
-1 iu, of Valdosta, and bought by
the Bankrupt’s brother, Mr. Jacob
Cohen, of Hazlehurst, liV paying
$4,465 for il. The sale is con tin
gent upon the approval of the Re
feree in Bankruptcy. There seems
to be no difficulty in that direction
as the estate brought approximate
ly what was expected. Mr. Jacob
Cohen has already taken charge of
the stock of goods and installed
Mr. A. Cohen as manager, who will
proceed to retail at pre war prices.
Look for his big advertisement
next week for all the particulars.

while Catarrh is a iocal disease, it is
greatlv influenced by constitutional
conditions. HALL’S CATARRH
MEDICINE is a Tonic and Blood Puri

Alabama Lady Was Sick For Three
Years, Suffering Pain, Nervous
and Depressed—Read Her
Own Story of Recovery.
Paint Rock, Ala.—Mrs. C. M. Stegall,
of near here, recently related the fol
lowing Interesting account of her re
covery: “I was in a weakened con
dition. I was sick three years In bed.
Buffering a great deal of pain, wpak,
nervous, depressed. 1 was so weak,
I couldn’t walk across the floor; Just
had to lay and my little ones do the
work. I was almost dead. I tried
every thing I heard of, and a number of
doctors. Still 1 didn’t get any relief.
I couldn’t eat, and slept poorly. I
believe if I hadn’t heard of and taken
Cardui I would have died. I bought
six bottles, after a neighbor told me
what it did for her.
“I began to eat and sleep, began to
gain my strength and am now well
and strong. I haven’t had any trou
ble since ... I sure can testify to the
good that Cardui did me. I don't
think there is a better tonic madt
and I believe it saved my life.”
For over 40 years, thousands of wo
men have used Cardui successfully,
in the treatment of many womanly
ailments.
If you suffer as these women did,
take Cardui. It may help you, too.
