HiS TROUBLES OF
ELEVEN YEARS END.
Rheumatism and Stomach Trou
ble Overcome, Bazzell Gains 40
Pounds Taking Tanlac.
“By giving Tanlac a fair trial I
got rid of eleven years suffering
and have gained forty pounds in
weight,” said A. Bazzell, 917 Bell
St., Montgomery, Ala., for thirty
years a valued employee of the
Montgomery Cotton Mills.
“I bad indigestion, rheumatism,
disordered liver and constipation
and suffered until I hardly expect
ed to ever be well again. My ap
petite finally left me entirely, and
my wife found my dinner bucket
just as full when I came home as
when she fixed it in the morning.
For weeks at a time 1 was unable
to strike a lick of work and my
back hurt me so bad 1 just had to
walk all bent over. Rheumatism
got in my arms and ankles, and
my arms hurt so bad 1 couldn't
even tie my shoe string.
“On my third bottle of Tanlac 1
noticed an improvement and today
1 am as well in every way as 1 ever
was in my life. It's been fourteen
months since Tanlac set me right,
and 1 have been eating anything
J want anil have felt fine ever
since.”
Tanlac is sold in drug stores
everywhere.—Advert isement.

John Barleycorn was in evidence
in Pearson Saturday and caused
some of the boys to be haled into
Mayor’s court Monday morning.
Mrs. Mary J. Rieketsou return
ed home Saturday night, after an
extended visit to relatives at
Orlando, Fla. She enjoyed her
visit to Orlando, but she says
“There is no place like home.”
The out of-town people attend
ing the Bankrupt Sale last Friday
were Messrs. Laugdale, Franklin,
Woodward and Strickland of Val
dosta; llcath and E. 1.. Tanner, of
Douglas; L. J. Cooper, of Waycross;
and C. E. Stewart, of Axson. Mr.
Cooper spent quite an hour with
the editor in his office.
I)r. Mary Armour Harris, the
noted prohibition lecturer, filled
her appointment here Wednesday
evening of last week. Owing to
the cold and damp weather she
spoke in the Methodist church
where they could have a fire and
make those who were present com
fortable. The editor, owing to
physical indisposition, did not
hear her, but those present say
she is a fluent and logical speaker
and they were richly entertained
for an hour.
Mr. H. Langdale, Trustee, was in
Pearson last Friday and made sale,
as advertised, of the estate of W-
H. Waddelle, in bankruptcy. The
sale was made under order of
Judge McCrackin, Referee in bank
ruptcy, and was bid in by Mr. W.
R. Strickland, of V aldosta, for SB,-
(100. Mr. Strickland, should the
sale be confirmed, will reopen the
business with a competent manag
er in charge and give the people
good service in hardware and fur
niture.
Warden Dickerson returned
from Augusta Thursday afternoon
of last week with a life prisoner
from Richmond county to serve
his long sentence in the Atkinson
county gang. He left Friday morn
ing for Soperton for a Treutlen
county convict, but when his man
was exhibited to him he declined
the honor of bringing him to At
kinson county. “Big Dick” says
tie man was old and wornout and
he couldn't help build Atkinson
county roads.
The blizzard that struck Pear
son last week was not only severe
but peculiar. The oldest inhabit
ant does not remember having ex
I>erienced its; like. It did not snow
nor sleet and yet the houses, trees,
wires and, in fact, the whole face
of the earth was covered with the
heaviest mantle of ice ever known
in this section, and it remained for
three or four days. One gentle
man explained the phenomenon
with the opinion that the cloud
was moving in a warmer strata of
air than that near the earth. An
other said the coat of ice on the
ground indicated that 1922 would
be a good crop year. Maybe so!
Pearson Postoffice Robbed.
Expert yeggmen visited Pearson
Sunday night, a short time after
midnight, blew open the safe and
possessed themselves of about SBOO
of money and valuables that can
possibly be used. In fact the safe
was cleaned of every thing in it,
including a package of War Saving
Stamps and a box of curios which
Postmaster Smith had been col
lecting from his early boyhood.
The cash included money belong
ing to the Post office Department,,
private funds of the postmaster
and savings of his two sons; also
some land deeds belonging to Post
master Smith.
Nitro gliyeerine was the explos
ive used and was gotten into the
safe by means of a flat paper fuu
neli placed at the top of the safe
door just above the lock. It was
touched off by means of an electric
fuse from the outside of the build
ing—a hole was made in a side
window near the safe through
which the wire was stretched.
Entrance into the building was
made by prying open the front
door.
The explosion woke tip Dr. 11.
P. Smith, a brother of the post
master, whose residence was only
a few feet from the postoffice. He
rushed to his front gate; he heard
voices and saw- the of a pow
ful flashlight, and realized that it
was dangerous for him to proceed
further, lie rushed to his telephone
and called the Marshal and the
Mayor, and it was not more than
fifteen minutes before these offici
als wore on the scene.
Dr. .unit h says that immediate
ly after his telephone, which was
connected with a telephone in the
office, rang he heard nothing more,
but saw the robbers running north
from the postoflice, up King st reet,
in the .direction of Douglas.
Sheriff Tanner, of Coffee county,
was called by telephone at Doug
las, and was on the scene in about
fifty minutes with bis bloodhounds
but the dogs failed to take up the
trail.
The robbers used a mail pouch
with w hich to carry off their loot.
In their haste tlu*5 r failed to get
the small change left in the daily
cash till.
May-Whaley.
Miss Martie Ann May and Mr.
Clarence Whaley were quietly
married in the Ordinary’s office
late Saturday afternoon.
The contracting parties came
here —the groom from Alapaha and
the bride from Willaeoochee —on
the late afternoon train, expecting
the Ordinary, Judge Roberts to
issue the license and to perform
the ceremony but he had gone out
to his country home. The license
was issued by his deputy and
Judge McNeal requisitioned to
perform the ceremony, which he
did in his usual dignified manner.
They returned home on the 8:18
train, bearing the good wishes of
all who witnessed the marriage for
their future prosperity and happi
ness.

Farmer’s Meet, February 18.
Owing to the fact that Atkinson
has no county agent the Editor of
the Tribune has been requested to
announce that, under the auspices
of the Federal and State Depart
ments of Agriculture, a farmers
meeting will be held in Pearson on
Saturday, February 18th.
Speakers from the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, the State De
partment of Agriculture and the
State College will be present to
discuss with tho farmers market
ing problems, the boll weevil, live
stock. poultry, home orchard and
cropping plans for 1922.
The speakers who will attend
this meeting will probably be
Messrs. J. F. Hart, 11. ('. Bates, E.
15. O'Kelley, G. 15. Eunice and Mrs.
Katie Lanier Smith. The latter
will talk on the subject of home
economics.
The meeting will be open to all
and especially farmers, and it is
the Editor's desire that the day
will be fair and balmly and that
the large school auditorium will be
filled to its utmost capacity to
hear what the speakers will have
to say. They come here, and the
meeting is held, for the purpose of
helping the farmers as much as
possible with some of their most
trying problems. Unless the farm
ers attend, of course they will not
benefit from the meeting.
Marketing will he specially dis
cussed by a market agent from
either the Federal or State Market
Bureaus.

The Atkinson county teachers
held their monthly institute last
Saturday. The Tribune editor
was so engrossed in trying to
straighten out some business mat
ters the institute escaped his mem
ory and lie failed to pay his res
pects to the teachers as he fully
intended to have done. He will
try to make amends next meeting,
as he believes it the duty of
friends of education lo encourage
the teachers by their presence if
only a short time. He learns that
it was an interesting and profitable
institute. The discussions were
all helpful.
