unit ITEMS OF GEORGIA CITIES
Columbus. —A Georgia rooster
which will soon start on his journey
to his new home in the north will
leave as a solace to his late owners
JI 50 of good Pennsylvania money.
This one of the best prices ever ob
tained for a chicken native to -Musco
gee county, and shows that fancy
fowls of the best quality can be bred
in Georgia.
Greensboro.—The grand jury of
Greene county, in returning its gen
eral presentment in open court stron
ly recommended that the grave of
Governor Peter Early remain in
Greene county, where his body has
rested for nearly a century. The jury
also indorsed the cattle quarantine
law, and pledged the co-operation of
the citizens of the county to the state
and federal government in its en
forcgment. From the presentments,
the county is entirely out of debt,
andTias SII,OOO to its credit.
Athens.—Two bank presidents and
a cashier, several directors and no
telling how many stockholders have
been the objects of charges by the
police of Athens in the past week —
haled into recorder's court to pay
fines for violating the new traffic or
dinance passed by council, requiring
teams and machines to drive to the
right and to have lights on all autos
after dark. Sixty-one cases in all
have been made in the past twenty
days by the specially detailed police
officers.
Summerville. —Following the finding
of a package of papers belonging to
the Bank of Lylerly sewn in a mat
tress in the home of .Mark McNew,
lour miners were lodged in jail here
charged with the spectacular dyna
miting the bank and the theft of
$4,000. The four under arrest are Mc-
New, Jerry Wilson, the latter's broth
er, Son Wilson, and Henry Hilburn,
the last two being little more than
boys. Detectives who arrested the
men claim that their prisoners are
also responsible for the robbery of
the Bank of Summerville a year ago.
Macon. —That middle Georgia has
experienced the best fruit weather in
her history during the present winter
and that the indications are that the
crop of peaches this year will be ab
normal in this section of the state,
was the statement made by E. J, Wil
lingham of Macon, one of the largest
growers in the state, who has just
returned from a ten-day visit to his
orchards at Byron. ‘‘This little warm
spell we have been having has had
no effect whatever,” said Mr. Willing
ham. "The critical period for the
peach growers will come within the
next, sixty days, but it will take a
spell of ten days of real summer
weather, followed by a freeze, to do
any material damage.”
Griffin. —The people of this city
are elated over the splendid pros
pects of securing the next session of
the Georgia Confederate reunion,
which will be held some time during
the summer months. The combined
efforts of the Spalding county Con
federate veterans and the United
Daughters of the Confederacy, back
ed by the board of triple and the city
council, have secured from State
Commander Preston of Macon, the
assurance that Griffin is held in high
esteem by those who have the au
thority to determine where the re
union shall be held. The letter from
Commander Preston indicates that
Griffin will, in all probability, be the
city selected for the great gathering
this year.
Rome. —It became known here that
erquest for the appointment of a re
ceiver for the State Mutual Life In
surance company of Georgia, with
headquarters here, has been filed
with Judge Ben Hill, of the superior
court in . Manta. The petition was
filed by J. E. Lockridge and -E. E.
Tanner, holders of approximately
s2o,ooo*worth of the company’s inter
est-bearing certificates. There are
said to be approximately $1,300,000
worth of these certificates in all.
The company is said to have assets
amounting to about $3,000,000. Cop
ies of the rule nisi were served on
officers of the company here, calling
on them to appear before Judge Hill
in Atlanta on February 24th, and
show cause why a receiver should
not be appointed.
Tallapossa.—Joe Sanford, wanted
in Haralson superior court for moon
shining and other charges, made a
specta'cular escape from officers here.
The man had been taken from a mid
night train and carried to a room,
because his clothing was wet and
officers thought best not to put him
in jail in the wet clothing. The of
ficers guarded him until early in the
morning, and seeing him asleep the
officers left for a few minutes. When
they returned the man was gone, and
a rope made of the bed sheets hang
ing from a second story w'indow told
the tale. Sanford had left his cloth
ing, but wrapped himself in two good
blankets for protection against the
air of the morning, which was almost
freezing. He is wandering in the
woods near Tallapoosa, and people
who saw him believed him a crazy
man and did not molest him.
SAFE TO GO TO FUNERAL
Diplomatic Reasoning That Should
Have Reassured the Ambassador
In a Dilemma.
At the death of the duke of Welling
ton the whole diplomatic corps in
London was invited to the funeral at
St. Paul’s. The French ambassador,
on receiving his invitation, was very
much upset. He hurried off to his
colleague of Russia, Baron Brunow,
and confided to him the difficulty in
which he was placed.
“The queen,” he said, “expects us to
go to St. Paul's to the funeral of the
duke of Wellington. How can I go,
considering the injuries which the
duke inflicted on my country? What
shall I do?”
Baron Brunow listened gravely to
his colleague's exposition, and then
replied:
"As the duke is dead,” he said, “I
think you can safely go to the funeral.
If you were asked to attend his resur
rection, I should say refuse the invita
tion.”
IN PAIN WITH HEMORRHOIDS
Bissell, Ala. —"I W'as troubled for
several years with protruding hemor
rhoids. They caused pain, of the most
severe kind and some loss of blood.
They were so inflamed that the touch
of anything against them was most
intense agony. I got no rest nights
and had to have my legs and feet
propped up in the bed.
"I tried all kinds of advertised
cures, and I was told that an opera
tion was the only relief. I suffered
untold agony. I saw the advertise
ment of Cuticura Soap and Ointment
and sent for a sample. I tried it and
then procured a box of Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment. I was cured
sound and well in three weeks’ time.
A cake of Cuticura Soap and two boxes
of Cuticura Ointment accomplished
what all else failed to do.” (Signed)

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma’s
Recipe of Sage and Sulphur
and Nobody Will Know.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
phur Hair Remedy.” You will get a
large bottle for about 50 cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

There’s no rest and but little peace for
a person whosekidneys are out of order.
Lame in the morning, suffering cricks
in the back and sharp stabs of pain
with every sudden strain, the day is
just one round of pain and trouble.
It would be strange if all-day back
ache did not wear on the temper, but
it is not only on that account that
people who suffer with weak kidneys
are nervoue, cross and irritable.
Uric acid is poison to the nerves,
and when the kidneys are not working
well, this acid collects in the blood
and works upon the nerves, causing
headache, dizziness, languor, an In
clination to worry over trifles, and a
suspicious, short temper.
Rheumatic pain, neuralgia, sciatica,
lumbago, neuritis and gravel are fur
ther steps in uric acid poisoning.
Don’t neglect kidney weakness. An
aching back, with unnatural passages
of the kidney secretions, is cause
enough to suspect the kidneys. Use
Doan’s Kidney Pills, a remedy which
has been used for years, the world
over, for weak kidneys, backache, ir
regular kidney action and uric acid
All in the Badge.
Little Everett was a member of the
Band of Mercy society, and was proud
of the membership. He wore his
badge, a small star, as if it were a
policeman’s insignia, and was often
heard reproving other boys and girls
for cruel treatment of dogs and cats.
One morning a woman of the neigh
borhood heard a commotion outside
Everett’s home, and, going to the win
dow, was surprised to find Everett
in the act of tormenting the cat.
“Why, Everett,” she called, “what
are you doing to that poor cat? I
thought you belonged to the Band of
Mercy society."
“I did,” replied the little boy, “but
I lost my star." —Lippincott’s.

Look, Mother! If tongue is
coated, give “California
Syrup of Figs.”
Children love this “fruit laxative,”

A child simply will not stop playing
to empty the bowels, and the result is

sours, then your little one becomes
cross, half-sick, feverish, don’t eat,
sleep or act naturally, breath is bad,
system full of cold, has sore throat,
stomach-ache or diarrhoea. Listen,
Mother! See if tongue is coated, then
give a teaspoonful of "California
Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all
the constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passeq out of the sys
tem, and you have a well child again.
Millions of mothers give "California
Syrug of Figs" because it is perfectly
harmless; children love it, and It nev
er fails to act on the stomach, liver
and bowels.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
of "California Syrup of Figs,” which

A PHYSICAL WRECK
New York City Woman Telia ofAwful Sus ferine
Mrs. Edith Dykeman, 154 W. , 81th StJ
New York City, N. Y.. says: “Three years
ago I was so run down in health that X
was a nervous wreck. 1 was afflicted
with a severe case of disordered kid
neys and doctors treated me without
benefit. My kidneys acted either too free
ly or else the action was retarded and
the passages of the secretions caused me
much pain. My back ached frightfully
day and night and 1 often rolled and
tossed for hours, unable to go to sleep.
In the morning I felt all worn out and
was hardly able to do my housework.
Whenever I stooped la pick up anything
from, the floor, I was hardly able to
straighten again. I had terrible dizzy’
spells and specks seemed to be floating iw
front of me. If I walked up or down!
stairs, I was completely worn out from;
weakness. The least excitement brought;
on an attack of nervousness and I got!
so bad that it was hard for me to be up
and around. My health was all run down.
Someone advised me to take Doan’s Kid-j
ney Pills and the first few doses helped'
me. I kept right on until I was entirely;
cured and I am now in the best of health.'
