to our county, and credit to him for
what he had done. We like what Mr..
Myers had to say about holding office.
If man seeks an office just for what
he can get out Of it, if elected he is
not likely to come out with any bet
ter name than he went in with, but if
he will show by his deeds that he had
more than personal interest in holding
Office, he will come out with credit to
his name. The above is not intended
for electionering for Mr.. Myres. but to
bring out good thought that every
candidate should have God made man
not only to work for himsef, but to
help his fellow man, that the world
might be united in peaceable gov

good appearance and make fare state

A WORD 10 FARM TOILERS.
PATNE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
The Home Friend Of the
Farmer and His Family.

After the labors and tolls of the summer time,
and harvesting of crops in the early autumn,
many of our farmers, their wives, daughters,
and sons, find themselves in condition of
health demanding careful attention if suffering
is to be avoided later on. Many experience
kidney trouble in some form; with some the
liver is torpid; there is biliousness, nausea, and
vomiting, with loss ii appetite and depression
Of spirits. Thousands who have been exposed
to cold, da.hr vlnas and rains while tolinp in
the harvest fields, now feel the twinees oil
terrible rhcU natism; others run down by
worry, ovcrwork, and Irregular dieting, are
tormented with the pancs of dyspepsia.
To the thousands of RI down, sickly. and
half dead men and women in farm homes we
recommend with all honesty and confidence
the workers friend, Paine's Celery Compound,
the only medicine that can quickly and fully
restore strength to the weak | ly and vigor to
the muscles. Paine's Celery Compound tones
the stomach; it removes poisonous acids from
the blood which cause 1heumatism; if feeds
the weak and diseased I.rves and Eanishes
neuralgia tortures; it purifes the blood and
gives true vitality and life. The use of Paine S
Celery Compound in autumn means the estab-
fishing of perfect physical vigor to withstand
the rlgors of severe winter

COUNTY NEWS NOTES.
VIRGIL.
Health is good in this locality.


Quite number went to Everett to
hear Simpson county's solons tell of
the great things they intend to do in
the state legislature in case they go,
and to enjoy the picnic that was
given.
Crops are fine in this immediate
neighborhood, though too much rain
for the present.
Rev ". P. Chapman and wife have
just returned from Weathersby where
Mr.. Chapman has been assisting Rev.
D. J. Miley in series of meetings.
They report good crops, though in
some places little dry.
The dates in the card of W. P.
Chapman last week in regard to J. l.
Covington's tax, was wrong, in place
of 1891 and 1892, should have been
1901. However, that is understood.
Mr. Covington made good impress
sion in our community, and say it
in good faith that he will get liber-
al support from our neck of the woods.
The claim of sober, truthful, upright
men should be duly considered by all
honest voters. Not only Covington,
but all others, who are worthy of our
support. This dot writer would say
to all the dot writers please give us
solid, sincere and reliable news. If
we will be faithful on this line the
County News will be the most in
teresting part of the paper, but if we
just scribble down any and everything
without head or tail, we will spoil it
all, and remember the editor is not
responsible, for he is depending on us
for facts, and not foolishness. am
saying this for the benefit of all con-
cerned. I don't mean either to de-
prive you of a little pleasantly, but
let facts be facts To illustrate, you
have candidate in your community
and you will have everybody in the
county believe that he will sweep
takes, and carry your box solid, and
all the other aspirants will get 0,
whereas the fact Of the business is
there will hardly be a box in the
county which will give any one can
didate every vote. So let us not re-
port so selfish. If we don't mind the
election returns will not tally with
our dots and somebody will feel
ashamed. Let us do all III our power
to make the News solid good paper,
and let it always bear upon it's face
honest truthful reading matter. Our
paper was born of royal blood, now
Let us develop it into power for
good.
