years ago, he discovered that chemically
pure glycerine is a far better solvent OF
most of the active principles residing in
our native medicinal plants when used at
a proper and sustained temperature than
is alcohol; and, furthermore, he found
that a glyceric extract kept much bet

giycerlne possessed intrinsic remedial
value, being demulcent, nutritive and an
effective anti-ferment. Although costing
somewhat more, DR.. Pierce predicts that
glyceric medicinal extracts will, in the
not distant future, largely replace alco-
holic ones SO generally prescribed by
physicians and put out by proprietary

The Best at Mcleod S.
AMERIcUs GETS a sANDwAGoN
A Real Treasure in Gold Paint is
Ours

The ''simple life' of Americus will
be thrown into a whirlpool of excite
ment and delicious, delirious ecstacy
this morning in a knowledge of the
fact that we have bandwagon-the
real circus article-rich in its trappings
of tinsel and gold lace. The wagon
came yesterday and, while not really
oure, we can buy it. Down in the dark
recesses OF she Seaboard freight depot
the bandwagon reposes, there to re-
main until the next semi-annual sold
boss" sale of unclaimed freight, to oc-
cur shortly. The old wagon, the pro-
perty, perhaps, of some disbanded
circus, forms picture pathetic when
one recalls it's former glory at the head
of circus pageant with the small boy
and the brother in black trecking IN
the rear. But its glory hath departed
and no more will the blare of the cor
net and the sacbut resound from its
upper deck Tt is suggested that an
Americus syndicate buy the old band
wagon. It will be good one for some
politicians to climb upon, who car
climb on no other bandwagop, and
thus it will fill long fell
want. There is yet lots of latent energy
in this bandwagon, and the price viii
not go begging on the day of sale.

A long life has ended, human soul

his credit as many unselfish thoughts,

fall to the lot of any man of his oppor

Another fake "agent" claiming to re-

in Americas. Henry Hammond, dud-
ish negro who cordially abhors work,
has been fleeing ignorant country ne

himself as the ''agent" for the Chicago

the bunch from their hard-earned dol

Hammond,a plea of guilty was entered.

Tags.

three measured bushels of tin tobacco
tags, perhaps the greatest quantity
every collected here, and as rain cur

clerks were busily engaged in sorting
the tins, every one of which has cash
value. Nearly all brands of chewing
tobacco row contain these little tin
premium tags, aud shrewd merchants
recognize their value and take care of
the tags. The three bushels thus COL
lected here yesterday, for instance,
have cash value of perhaps six hun
dred dollars, which will be paid the

firms when the tags are sent in for re-
demption.

FIGURING ON PEACH PROSPECT
Cold Weather and San Jose Scale
Are Feared

In the orchards about Americus, and
10 the larger orchards about Fort Val
ley and MarshaIlville, fruit growers
are now anxiously watching the peach
trees. One grower who owns han
dred thousand trees near Font Valley
has just made careful inspection of
his orchards. He says the San 10: 9
scale is to peach trees what the boil
weevil is to cotton, that one evil is as
hard to fight as the other. But he says
that fruit buds are plentiful throughout
all the fruit growing counties despite
this scale. Though the hardest part of
the year on the peach industry is still
to be heard from, the reports so far
from Fort Valley, MarshslIville and
other peach centres indicate a. fair yield
for this coming season.
