LITTLE ITEMS Os GEORGIA CITIES
Tallapossa.—R, S. Bonner, who re
sides at Heflin, produced and canned
last year 1,3a0 cans of tomatoes.
These cans are now being marketed,
for which Mr. Bonner expects to re
ceive $1,350. The work was done
entirely by Mr. Bonner and his fam
ily.
Thomasville.—The Truckers’ asso
ciation, of Thomas county, was re
cently organized in this county, the
organization having been effected at
a meeting of truck farmers, who, by
this co-operative method, purpose to
bring their products to a packing
house, have them packed for ship
ping in a proper way, and marketed
to the greatest advantage.
Griffin. —A covered wagon with two
Socialists as passengers attracted com
siderable attention, when it stopped in
front of a bank here. On the canvas
sides were painted “For Socialism.
Socialism 'Caravan from Coast to
Coast. 2,000,000 Votes for Socialism
in 1916.” The men left New York
City, May IS, 1913. Their destination
is San Francisco, they planning to
reach that city about January 1, 1915.
Cedartown.—An effort is being
made to establish at Cedartown a
15,000 spindle mill. C. W. Bateson
of New York, who has the matter in
charge, proposes to transform the
Josephine and Wahneta knitting
mills into a factory. A number of
local stock subscriptions were recent
ly obtained for this purpose. It is
expected that the bulk of the money
will come from New York.
Lyerly.—Not in many years has
such a prolonged drouth occurred in
January as compared with the pres
ent one. Not a drop of rain has fal
len since the second of the present
month, and the weather is still fair
and moderately warm. Many of the
wells and cisterns are diying up and
the water supply is getting low. Ev
en the small creeks and branches
have stopped running and are as dry
as in the hot summer time.
Tallulah Park. —Tallulah Park, Hab
ersham county, Georgia, the station
on the Tallulah Falls railroad, estab
lished for the use of the Appalachian
apple orchards, has now been made
a postoffice, and Ruble E. Stockton
has been appointed postmaster. Mr.
Stockton states that his office will
be ready to open in the next few
days. This postoffice was establish
ed at the solicitation of Louis B. Ma
gid and his employees and has about
150 patrons.
Gainesville.—The average price at
which Hall county land is returned
per acre is $8.51, according to some
recent figures made by the Hall coun
ty tax assessors. This step, taken
by the assessors, is in line with the
agitation for the equalization of the
tax rate, and affords an interesting
as well as necessary basis for further
action. The average return per acre
for the Gainesville district, being the
highest was found to be SI.OB. ’ The
next highest average return from the
twenty-one districts of the county is
that made by the Oakwood district,
which is sll.ll. Polksville comes
lowest with an average of $5.38 per
acre.
Rome. —Citizens of Menlo, in Chat
tooga county, are planning to secure
the extension of the Rome and North
ern railroad to their city. A project
is already under way to extend the
road to Subligna. The people of
Menlo will ask that another exten
sion be built for 141-2 miles across
the county from Gore, the present
northern terminus of the railroad, to
Menlo, which is a thriving little town
of 1,200 people, has but one railroad,
the Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia.
If this connecting link is built be
tween the Rome and Northern and
the T., A. G. line, it will mean a new
rail route from Chattanooga to Rome,
and perhaps eventually to Atlanta.
Cordele. —The good housewives of
Cordele have started a movement for
a gas plant by taking the matter up
with the chamber of commerce and
insisting that the mayor and city
council lend their assistance to the
movement. Summer weather is most
too hot, declare the women, for the
use of the common stove or range
for which wood or coal is used as
fuel, and they insist on having gas
for cooking purposes. The move
ment has already taken on good
form, a committee having been ap
pointed from the chamber of com
merce and the city council to further
it, and it is understood that the city
fathers are prepared to consider a
good gas franchise.
Lexington. —W. P. Willoughby, a
farm overseerer, living four miles
from this place, who is partially par
alyzed, was attacked by a mad dog
in the yard of his home and severely
bitten. In some way, while attempt
ing to defend himself as best he
could, Mr. Willoughby was thrown to
the ground and while prostrate and
helpless, 'on account of not having
tlie complete use of his limbs, his
arms were being chewed by the dog
when assistance arrived. So badly
was he bitten that doctors spent thy
night at his home administering
treatment.

Finger Prints identify.
Taking of the finger print system
for the identification of criminals, a
Scotland Yard detective remarked the
other day that, although no system is
infallible, the police, given a finger
print of a man who has been through
their hands, will tell you who he is in
nine hundred and ninety-nine cases
out of a thousand. Furthermore, it
is a matter of indifference to the Eng
lish police by which finger or thumb
the print is made; it can be easily
traced. It was pointed out that in
France the police depend to a great
extent on physical measurement for
identification, ' but while measure
ments are always taken by Scotland
Yard, they are only regarded as of
secondary importance.
FRUIT LAXATIVE
FOSSICK CHILD
“California Syrup of Figs” can’t
harm tender stomach,
liver and bowels.
Every mother realizes, after giving
her children "California Syrup of
Figs" that this is their ideal laxative,
because they love its pleasant taste
and it thoroughly cleanses the tender
little stomach, liver and bowels with
out griping.
When cross, irritable, feverish or
breath is bad, stomach soiir, look at
the tongue, mother! If coated, give a
teaspoonful of this harmless “fruit
laxative,” and in a few hours all the
foul, constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out of the bow
els, and you have a well, playful child
again. When its little system is full
of cold, throat sore, has stomach-ache,
diarrhoea, indigestion, colic —remem-
ber, a good "inside cleaning” should
always be the first treatment given.
Millions of mothers keep “California
Syrup of Figs” handy; they know a
teaspoonful today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Ask at the store for a 50-
cent bottle of “California Syrup of
Figs,” which has directions for babies,
children of all ages and grown-ups
printed on the bottle. Adv.

Death Lurks In A Weak Heart

WHEELER COUNTY EAGLE, ALAMO, GEORGIA.
DEPENDED ON HIS FRIENDS
Good Business Argument in Opposi
tion to a Request for Reduc
tion of Price.
A man seeking to purchase a new
hat visited a haberdashery shop the
other day with the proprietor of which
he was on very intimate terms. After
trying on several of the latest fashions
he casually inquired the price of the
hat. He was informed that it was
sold at $3.
"Isn’t that rather steep?" remarked
the customer. “Isn’t it possible for
you to make a reduction for me? I
have been dealing with you for the
past ten years, and it seems to me
that the price is a trifle high.”
"It is impossible for me to lower my
price,” curtly replied the proprietor.
"Now, my dear man,” the other
again asked, "can’t you make some
concessions for an old friend?”
“Because of our friendship you want
me to make a reduction,” said the
owner, dismissing the subject. “Don’t
you know that I depend upon the sup
port of my friends, because my ene
mies don’t patronize me?”

produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,

the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu

stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir
ritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
tike a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few da^s
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with Uthia, and has been used

It is therefore, much better suited
for Southern consumption as regards

This accounts for the marvelous
