Lyerly, Ga. —Not before in several
years has such a splendid headway
been made by the farmers in the prep
aration of the land for a crop up to
this time of the year. In most in
stances the farmers now have all their
cotton land turned and are preparing
their corn land, which is unusual for
the time of year. It is the general
opinion that this is going to be an
excellent crop year and there is much
activity among the farming class.
There has never been such a scarcity
of hogs and beef cattle in this section
"of the country. It is practically im
possible te find a shoat or any kind
of hog for sale at any price and the
conditions are equally as bad in buy
ing beef cattle. Local buyers say they
have never faced such a situation be
fore. “The hogs and cattle are sim
ply not to be found," they say. "Hav
ing been the country over, we are un
able to find them for sale.”
SIR WALTER SCOTT’S MAN
Faithful Tom Purday Knew Very Well
When He Has a Good
Master.
“My good old Grandmother Usher
used to say of Sir Walter: ‘What a
pity so clever a man did not write
sermons instead of novels.’ But to
those who were privileged to see him
in the inner sanctuary of his home,
his whole life was a sermon, and there
he was beloved by all for his benevo
lence and his true goodness, far ex
celling his greatness,” says Mrs. Agnes
Cunningham in T. P.'s Weekly. “He
assembled his household for prayer
at a stated hour every morning, to
which all visitors were Invited —often
having a large congregation. His serv
ants worshiped him. and even the
dumb animals showed a great love
for him. even down to the very pigs.
His much valued servant, forester and
factotum, Tom Purday, was very faith
ful, but given to dram drinking and
heedless of Sir Walter’s gentle re
bukes. He was told on One occasion
he must leave his service, but replied ■
' ’Deed. sir. I’ll gang nae sic gait; if
ye dinna ken when ye’ve a gude serv
ant, A ken when I’ve gat a gude mais
ter.’ On another like offense Sir Wal
ter exclaimed: ‘Oh. Tam, Tam, I
could trust you with untold gold, but
not with unmeasured whisky.’ ”
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. Kvery
body usee 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.

RINGWORM SPREAD ON HAND
R. F. D. No. 2, Box 67, Ellijay, Ga.—
"My son's ringworm began on the
back of his hand. A fiery red spot
came about as large as a dime and it
would itch so badly he would scratch
it till it bled. It began to spread till
it went all over his hand. He would
just scream every time I went to wash
it. The nail came off on the middle
finger.
“I used and it got worse
all the time. The trouble lasted two
or three months. Then I sent and got
some Cuticura Soap and Ointment and
began to use them. I would wash
his hand with the Cuticura Soap and
dry it good and apply the Cuticura
Ointment. Relief was found in two
or three days and the ringworm was
cured in two weeks after using Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment.” (Signed)

Uric Acid is Slow Poison
Unseen in. its approach, hard to de
tect in its early stages, and cruelly
painful in its later forms, uric acid
poisoning is a disease too often fatal.
Bright's disease is one of the final
stages of uric acid poisoning. It kills
in our country every year more men
and women than any other ailment
except two —consumption and pneu
monia. Bright's disease and uric acid
poisoning usually start in some kidney
weakness that would not be hard to
cure, If discovered early, so it is well
to know the early signs of kidney dis
ease and uric poisoning.
When uric acid is formed too fast
and the kidneys are weakened by a
cold, or fever, by overwork, or by over-
Indulgences, the acid collects, the blood
gets impure and heavy, there is head
ache, dizziness, heart palpitation, and
a dull, heavy-headed, drowsy feeling
with disturbances of the urine.
Real torture begins when the uric
acid forms into gravel or stone in the
kidney, or crystallizes into jagged bits
in the muscles, joints or on the nerve
tubings. Then follow the awful pains
of neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, sciat
ica, neuritis, lumbago or kidney colic.

Richmond, Ky.—Mrs. N. V. Willis, of
this place, says: “I suffered for over
three years with womanly trouble, and
tried- many different treatments, but
none of them seemed to do me any
good. I had almost given up to die,
when a friend of mine begged me to
try Cardui, the woman’s tonic. I got
a bottle, and began to feel a great deal
better after the first few doses. I
then got four bottles, and after tak
ing these I was cured.
1 don't know what a female pain is
now, do all of my work, eat anything
I want, and feel like a 16 year old girl.
I never expect to be without Cardui
in my house as long as I live, as I
firmly believe it saved my life, and I
will praise it to all of my suffering
lady friends.”
Cardui is a purely vegetable remedy,
containing no harmful mineral prod
ucts. Its Ingredients act in a helping,
building way, on the womanly consti
tution. It has been relieving woman
ly troubles for over half a century,
during which time It has proven of
more than ordinary value as a tonic
for“weak women.
You can rely on Cardui. It will do
for you what it has done for thou
sands of others. Begin taking it
today.

Doctors Couldn’t Help Her
Georgia Woman Almost Gave Up in Deepair
Mrs. Sabra Burgeas, Toccoa, Ga., saya:
“Twelve yearg ago 1 began to suffer from
rheumatic trouble and kidney disease. Doc
tors said my system was filled with uric acid
poisoning. The kidney secretions were scanty
and too frequent In passage and bothered me
greatly at night. My back got terribly weak;
and painful and there was a bearing-down
sensation through iny loins. As the disease
progressed, severe pains ran from my head
and neck, down through my shoulders, into
my right side and limb. I tried almost ev
erything, but nothing helped me, even six
months' treatment by doctors brought no re
lief. I was in despair. While in this critical
condition, f began using Doan’s Kidney Pills
and the relief was miraculous. By the tints
I had used six bo«es. all the ailments had
left me. That happened four years ago and .
1 have never suffered since."
