CHRONIC COUGHS
OFTEN THE BEGINNING OF CON
SUMPTION.
Our Local Druggists, Bell Bros, Guar

Our Local Druggists, Bell Bros, Guar
antee Vinol Will Cure Them.
Said Druggist Bell of Bell Bros.
''This is the season for coughs and
colds, and for the benefit of Dawson
people want to tell them about the
best means for cure.
Don't dose the stomach with cough
syrups. It's no use; they only soothe
little-upset the stomach and do not
heal it.
''The best cure we know is Vinol,
which contains in a highly cOncentrat-
ed form ell of the healing curative ele-
ments taken from genuine fresh Gods
livers, without drop of oil or grease
to upset the stomach or retard its
work. 1t contains no sickening drugs
whatever. Vinol is splendid for a
lung or bronchial cough. 1t heals,
cures and strengthens the sore lungs
and bronchial tubes. 1t makes rich,
red blood, builds up the appetite and
creates strength; in fact, it is the best
remedy we have ever sold in our store
for chronic coughs, colds, bronchitis
and all lung affections.
"Besides the large number of Daw-
son people who have been cured and
made we'll and strong by VinOl, we re-
ceive many letters like the following:
"HOn. A. Mason of Jacksonville,
Fla, writes: "A couple of months ago
| contracted a severe cold, which it
seemed impossible to cure. 1t settled
on my lungs, causing a hard cough,
which kept me awake at nights, and
soon weakened my system SO that /
was unable to attend to my duties.
Vinol was reco nmended to me by a
friend, and | began to take it as di-
rected. The second night had only
one coughing spell, and within week
l was not disturbed once during the
night.
. Naturally, my progress was fast
after this, and my lungs healed rapid.
ly, my strength returned, and l gained
in flesh and health. In fact this med
icine restored me to perfect condition
and | now feel much better and young
er than | have for years. [ certainly
think it is a wonderful remedy to builC
up a rundown system
1--WE ask every person in Dawson
who has a chronic cough or hard colo
to try Vinol on our guarantee to re
fund their money if they are not salts

REST YOUR SOIL is REMEDY
PLANT CORN AND OTHER NECESSl
TIES AND CUT COTTON CROP.
The Burning Of Cotton Is Foolish, Says
Commissioner 0. B. Stevens.
How to Get Higher Prices.

The burning of that one bale of cot
ton on the streets of FIT. Gaines did
not light up the whole cotton belt.
The occurrence has been generally
commented upon throughout the coun-
try, and is universally regarded as
ridiculous.
Commissioner of Agriculture 0. B.
Stevens declares that burning is not
the remedy for low-priced cotton, and
insists that smaller acreage devoted
to cotton planting is alone the only
salvation for the cotton planter.
"Don't Burn Your Cotton"
Don't burn your cotton" he says,
''but store it, and next spring plant
only ten acres in cotton to the mule.
This will reduce the crop to about
5000, 900 bales, and with this amount
on the market the price of the staple
is obliged to 90 up to around ten and
twelve cents. The farmer can make
more money with 100000 bales of
cotton at ten and twelve cents per
pound than he can with $1,000, 900
bales bringing only five and six cents
per pound.
'TIet the farmer fertilize this acre
age as highly as he wants to, put sew
eral hundred pounds of fertilizer to
the acre, and in this way realize most
from his soil. If he does not want to
plant all that is not planted in cotton
in corn, oats and wheat, why, let the
soil rest. The rest will do it good.
Cut Down the Acreage.
Shorter acreage in cotton with
more of the necessities of the farm
raised at home will bring about such
peace and prosperity as has never
been seen in Georgia before. If the
farmers will do this | will guarantee
that the price will go up, and we can
manage a small crop and make the
price go up as easily as the mill mil
lionaires of the east can manage a
large crop and make the price 60
down.
Ten acres to the mule and that soil
highly fertilized is the solution of the
question and not the burning of the
surplus cotton crop"

Deafness Cannot BeYCured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con.
ditiOn of the mucous lining of the Eu-
tacian Tube. When this tube is in
hamed you have a Iumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be ia
ken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is' nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mu-
cOUs surfaces.

A man usually buys a hat that's ''in
STYLE" but the modern hat for men has
lots to answer for.
Baldheads are growing more numer-
Gus every day. Hats make excellent
breeding places for the parasitic germs
which sap the life from the roots of the
hair.
When your hair begins to fall out and
your scalp is full of Dandruff it is a
sure sign that these countless germs are
busily at work.
There is but one way to overcome the
trouble and kill the germs-that way is
to apply Newbros Herpicide to the
scalp-it will kill the germs and healthy
hair is sure to result.

Clinton Jones, a little white boy, Sat-

fined ten dollars or sentence of twen-

his injury is not considered serious.
