Red Rock Ginger Ale.

The art of brewing ginger ale has
been perfected by the bOttlers of Red
Rock. They have spared no labor or
expense in an endeavOr to create an
article superior to anything of the
kind on the market, and the fact that
they have shipped $50 carloads from
their plant in Atlanta, Ga, in the
past ten months is verdict from the
public browning their efforts and en-
dorsing their product
Red Rock ginger ale is recommend
ed by the best physicians in the Unit
ed States as an excellent remedy for
indigestion, and its use is general in
the prominent sanitariums of the
country. No matter how much you
drink it is absolutely non-constipat-
ing.
Bottling plants for carbonating gin
ger ale have been established in the
principal cities of the United States
from Maine to California.
Messrs. T. O. Whitchard & Co. of
Dawson have the exclusive rights for
bottling Red Rock in this city and adj
jacent territory.
Always look for Red Rock on the
crown of the cork. None genuine
without it.

WAS THE COOLEST SINCE 1900
Blizzard Made Mercury Tumble to
Twelve Degrees. Much Damage
Was Done by Freeze.

With the temperature down to
twelve degrees and with a strong
northwest wind blowing Dawson and
this entire section suffered on Wednes-
day and Thursday from the severest
cold spell since January, 1900, when
the thermometer fell to zero.
Swept irresistibly southwark by
the high northwest winds the cold
wave that was predicted reached here
one day ahead of scheduled time, and
the mercury fell steadily from Tues
day night until Thursday morning,
when it had reached as low as twelve
degrees.
Considerable injury was done to
the water pipes in residences and man
ufacturing plants and the plumb
ers here reaped aiharvest of dollars.
A thousand dollars will perhaps not
cover the damage done. All the pipes
of the Variety Works Co. bursted,
and that plant was shut down for two
days.
The freeze extended into Florida,
and completely destroyed the vegeta-
BILE crop. Tomatoes, beans and peas,
covering several thousand acres, were
entirely destroyed. The loss to the
state is estimated at 81, 900, 900.

NO SCHOOL FOR TWO DAYS.

Heating Apparatus Again Out of
Order and Children Sent Home.
The pupils Of the Dawson public
schools have had two more holidays
on account of the heating apparatus
in the new school building failing to
properly work.
The blizzard Wednesday and Thurs
day was more than the children could
stand in a poorly heated building, and
Superintendent Hankins sent them
home both days.
Hot air is supposed to be forced
through pipes into the various rooms
by means of an engine, and it is said
the trouble has all been due to inabil-
ity to get an engine that will properly
do the work. The third engine is now
being installed, and it may be that
this one will send in the hot air.

BELL BROTHERS
GIVE REASONS WHY THEY CON-
SIDER VINOL
The Greatest Health Restorer and
Strength Creator known
to Medicine

First: Because Vinol contains in a
concentrated form all of the medicinal
curative elements actually taken from
fresh Gods livers, but without drop
of oil to nauseate and upset the stom-
ach and retard it's work; therefore
wherever old-fashioned cod liver oil
or emissions will do good Vinol will
do far more good.
Second: Because Vinol acts first
upon the stomach, creates a healthy
appetite, strengthens and tones up the
digestive organs, purifes and en-
riches the blood, and in a natural
manner health is restored and strength
created.
Third: Because Vinol contains no
! injurious drugs to react upon the sys-
tenn; you know just what you are TAX
ng, as it is printed on every bottle.
Fourth: Because we have never
sold anything in our store equal to
Vinol to restore health and create
strength for old people, weak, sickly
women and children, nursing mothers,
and to build up the system after Sc
we're sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis and all throat and
lung troubles.
A prominent physician writes:
''Vinol is the most palatable and val
liable preparation of cod liver oil ever
propounded. | now use it entirely in
all cases where l formerly depended
upon old-fashioned cod liver oil and
emulsions. F."
Try Vinol on our guarantee to re-
turn money if you receive no benefit.

Ginners Disposed to Keep to Them
selves the Number of Bales Ginned.
The bureau cotton report which was
issued Thursday was bob-tail affair
Evidently the ginners throughout
the cotton belt have baked badly and
refused to furnish information of the
cotton ginned, only 215 counties being
represented in the last report. There
are perhaps one thousand counties in
the cotton belt, from which ginners'
reports are made monthly, and Thurs
days report covered only about one
fifth of these, the ginners of the re-
naming 800 evidently refusing to give
information that had heretofore been
obtained from them.
In the absence of reliable infOrma-
ton the guessers are now claiming a
crop ranging from II, 100000 to 49,
500, 900.
Mr.. w. S. DOzier, who represents
the government in obtaining the gin
statistics of Terrell county, states that
since the decline in the price of cottoni
many of the ginners have given with
considerable reluctance the number OF
bales handled by them, and he is OF
the opinion that when he makes his
rounds in February some of them will
refuse to give any information at all.

Letter to Mayor Mercer, Dawson, G


Dear Sir: You are interested in
the prosperity of your town. You
can contribute to it materially and
give it far more prosperous look at
the same time.
Perhaps the public property needs a
good coat of paint.
Devoe will supply that coat with
two thirds of the number of gallons
required of any other. Devoe will
last twice as long as any other, Devoe
is all paint and full measure. Devoe
is the strongest paint known. Devoe
takes care of the property, I'm the long
run, for half the money required by
any other.
The reason is stated above: Devoe
is all paint and full measure; the
strongest paint known.
E. D. Jewell, Cory, Pa, painted
his house 5 years ago with a mixed
paint; took IA gallons. Last spring
he repainted with Devoe; bought IA
gallons and had gallons left. Saved
SIS to $40, for painting costs four or
five times as much as the paint. Yours
truly, F. w. DEvOE & Co.,

FARMERS MOVING SLOWLY.

They We're Last Year.
The farmers of this section are TAX
ing their own time about preparing
their lands for the coming crops.
This time a year ago the voice of
the plowman was in the land, and
there was such hustling about the
farms as had hardly ever been seen
before. Every farmer was taking
time by the forelock, and one of the
results of the energy displayed at that
time was the biggest cotton crop the
world has ever known.
The guano men and mule dealers
are pretty good barometers this time
of year by which to tell what the far
mers are doing. Both mules and
guano, are high, while cotton is low,
and the result is there is not much
trading going on in these lines.
