Do you feel weak and mean? Have
you got the ague? Then why don't
you DO something to get well? You
say quinine doesn't do you any
good. Well, you needn't let that
discourage you. There is one rem.
edy, Smiths Tonic Syrup, made
by Or John Bull, OF Louisville,
Ky, that is far ahead OF quinine.
1t will cure chills and fever when
everything else has Iailed. In some
neiahborhoods where chiils and
fever are common, it is found
in every household. Why Il men
weuld as soon refuse his family
food to eat, as to refuse to get
another bottle of Smiths Tonic
Syrup when the old bottle gave
out. Ii is a great preventive OF
ague. A single dose will some
times keep of an attack. A few
doses will break up the fever and
cure the chills, 1t does not leave
auy unpleasant after effects as
quinine sometimes does. 1t will
not harm the most delicate invalid.

A BABY IN THE BUNDLE.
The Mysterious Package Given 4
Lee County Nan hr Slrnnmer.

The Mysterious Package Given q
Lee County Man by Stranger.
AR. S. J. hargrove, OF AGam'.
Station, has at his house a strange
baby, which he came in oSsessiou
ct in a remarkable way. Mr.. Har-
grove is manager of the Alliance
warehouse at Leesburg, aud he is
well~known throughout this sees
ton.
For some time past Mr.. Har,
grove has had a brother,in. law
IRON Texas visiting him. Friday
morning that gentleman left
Adams Station for Cordele, where
he expected to spend several DAYS
About noon Friday Nr. Farsrove
received a telegram from Ameri-
Gus, purporling to he from his
brothter>in -law.wh said that
the sender would he in Adams
Station on the 1929 o'clock train
that night. The telegram was a
surprise f1r Mr.. Hargrove, who
knew the intentions OF his relative.
But acting on the Telegram he met
the train with his horse and buggy
prepared to take the visitor, who
was returning 50 suddenly, to his
home.
The train came on time, but Mr..
Hargrove's brother in-law was
not on it. There was a man on
the train who got off, spoke a few
words to Mr.. Hargrove and board.
ed the train which was then nov
ing off. The nan was unknown to
Mr. Hargrove,
When the man got of the train
he handed Mr.. Hargrove basket,
which, he explained, he wanted
given to Mrs. .Hargrove with the
compliments OF a stranger. That
sail that was said. Mr.. Hars
grove wake off with the basket
which had beer given him: he no
ticed that it was very heavy.
When be stopped to investigate he
made a startling discovery. When
Mr.. Hargrove looked down he saw
healthy baby boy of about
three weeks Of age. The baby was
remarkably well dressed, and in
the basket was a quantity of clothes
of fine fabric.
On the baby's breast was noie,
This said in substance that the
chiId's mother was dead; that it's
father was drunkard. Then the
note went on to explain that the
child's mother had been q school
mate Of Mrs. iIargrove, and that
it WAS her dying request that she
have the baby to raise. in closing,
the note said that 500 would be
found in the basket to pay for the
trouble to whieh the good peop.e
might be put, and that they would
be richly rewarded when the child
was raised up.
The baby was under the infu-
ence Of an opiate, and did not wake
up until he had been twenty>four
hours in Mr., Hargrove's house.
The little ore seems to be perfectly
healthy, and is apparently well
satisfied with the people who are
to raise it.
Whose baby is it, and who gave it
to Mr.. Hargrove? Those are two
questions uppermost III the minds
OF Mr.. Hargrove and bis wife. The
parents OF the baby are evidently
in good circumstances, for the
clothes are Of the best.
