NEWS ITEMS FROM FRIENDSHIP.
Interesting and Newsy Notes Picked
Up There.

Friendship, GA, June 9.-The arrival
of ealesmen in Friendship gives the
place an air of progress pleasant to
witness. Since the great convenience
of telephones there IS only one thing
necessary to make the place one of the
most attractive IN the county. It needs
to be more accessible to railway con-
nection.
Mr.. John Char pell made visit 10
Friendship Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Rosa McGarrah and little
daughter, Ethel have gone for several
days visit to Americas.
Capt, Drane and Mr.. Dorm report an
unusually large harvesting of oats. 1t
is to be trusted that these large yields
of grain are harbingers of corn and cot
ton crops in the fall.
Mr., Wilson has been generously
dividing the products of his garden
with his neighbors. It can be safely
said that nowhere outside of scientific
gardening for shipping can there be
produced finer potatoes, onions or cab
bages than he so freely distributes
among his friends. The ''green gro
GERS" stand rarely offer such exhibits.
There can be art in gardening and
farming, and this art, as all successful
arts, depends upon industry.
Great interest is manifested here in
the disastrous storm of Gainesville,
and the deepest sympathy goes out to
her people, Only a few years ago a
tornado less destructive because it
extended oyer an uninhabited area,
left impress of its horror in memory of
residents of Friendship. Such vista
tions of calamity should stir all hearts
to serious reflection and ready assist
ance.
Mrs. Duke, who has been indispos-
ed the past week, is able to be out
| again.
Mr.. Lewis Croxton has been in
Americas attending court the entire
past week.
Mr.. and Mrs. George Harper com.
bined a business and pleasure trip tc
Americus Wednesday. Mr.. Harper at

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local application, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies,
Deafness is caused by an infiamed condi-
ton of the mucous Inning of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless, the inflammation ca 4
be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out o. IN
are caused by catarrb, which is nothing
but an inAamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by ca
tarrb) that can not be cured by Hail.

double dose will not grippe, weaken or
sicken; many people call them the Easy

From the mining regions comes the
report that thousands Of miners will
now be thrown out Of employment be-
cause the demand for coal has not kept
pace with the production and the
mines must be closed. In another col
umn of the same paper can be found
a notice that the price of coal will be
advanced because of it's scarcity, which
scarcity has been caused by the refusal
of miners to work, and the inability of
the railroads to furnish cars. This
