PLANT JUICE REMEDIES.
WHICH COL. DILLINGHAM; INTRODUCED
HERE ARE SELLING LIKE HOT CAKES.
Local Druggists are More Than Pleased
With the Patronage they are Receiving


| The fame of Col. F. A. Dilling-
ham, the famous advertiser of
Plant Juice Remedies, did not go
with him, when he left Fitzgerald
three weeks ago, after an emil
nently successful engagement
here of four weeks, but remains
with the medicines he placed
with the local druggists and they
are yet all the talk. More than
that they are likely to attract the
permanent attention of the people
of Irwin County as we'll as many
ad joining counties for all time.
That they will become a house
hold remedy there is not the
slightest doubt.
Col. Dillingham; with his mod.
ern and unequalled vaudeville
performances made lasting i'm
preston on the thousands of peo-
pie who attended his exhibition,
because of the able lectures he
gave on diseases and the uses of
medicines and the proficacies of
his artists on the stage. People
wondered at his remarkable dem
constructions of the efficacies of his
medicines which he made in the
presence of the people and in
manner that was convincing and
showed that those remedies we're
lust as represented.
These Illustration of the mira
cles, one might say of the medi-
cines, were the talk of the citizens
generally, while he was in Fitz-
lgera1, as he affected several cures
of rheumatism, tapeworm, letter,
eczema and other eruptions and
ailments of long standing, and
yet there is no sign of these
cures not being permanent. All
who took his medicines are giving
strong testimonials of the bene-
fits they received and are warm
in their praises of Plant Juice,
remedies, as well as greatful to
Col. Dillingham; that he came this
, way. They are sincere in the be-
lief that they have been cured
permanently, and they do not
hesitate to heartily recommend
Plant Juice remidies.
1t appears to be genuine pleas
ure to them to tell their neighbors
and friends, and especially those
who are ai1iug and cannot get re-
lief, all about what Plant Juice
remedies did for them. The en-.
dorsements are so strong as to
convince everyone, and they are
cheerful1y lending assistance to
Col. Dillingham; in his introduce
ton of Plant Juice remedies into
as many of the good homes of
Fitzgerald and Irwin county as
possible, with the result that the
druggists who we're fortunate in
securing a stock of these famous
remedies are having good sales of
them and are encouraged to
handle them on a more extensive
scale. This is born out by the
statements of the druggists
themselves, since Col. Dilling-
hams departure.
Among those who have been so
lgreatly benefited by Plant juice
remedies is Chas. Hall, the we'll
known merchant, from whom
came a tape-worm over 70 feet
long, head and all, after he had
taken only a part of a dollar bot
| tie of Plant Juice.
| Another who was cured per-
manent1y is N. J. Austin, the well
known merchant. He has had
no signs of rheumatism since he
took the medicine more than a
month ago, and he believes that
he is cured for all time. Then
there is w. w. Gibbs, the leading

As predicted in the Graphic of last
Sunday. fraternal matters are picking
up. although as yet there is no great
amount of lodge news to report. How
ever. there is ample promise of live
ly winters work in the various frater-
mites of the city, and unless all signs
fail there will be most successful
seasons work. There is not a frater-
nifty in the city but that is receiving
greater interest on the part OF its
members. There is not society in
the city but gives promise of expand
ing during the winter. New applica-
tions for membership are now coming
in to every fraternity here, and with
in very sort while the membership
rolls will begin to speak for them
selves.
The past week has not been without
interest to secret circles The attend
ance has been some better than usual,
and the interest in the work of the
lodge room is plainly manifesting
itself in the individual. The meetings
of the past week have not been un-
attended with work of both import
auce and interest. During the next
few weeks this interes will increase
with the advancement of the season.

GETTING AWAY FROM
THE COUNTER.

The quickest way to get away from
the counter is to work hard. be polite
and oblising at the counter The
tronble with people who complain TN
they cannot get above the positions
they are in is that they can not see
that the step to the thing above them
is in the thing they are doing, in their
manner of doing it, that the opportun-
ity for advancement is in the prompt
ness, the thoroughness, efficiency they
show in the positions they now occu-
py.
OF two clerks working side by side
in store, one knows that the best
part of his salary is not found in his
raw envelope, but in the opportunity
to learn the business, to extract from
It the secrets which his employer
HAY have paid a fortune for. besides
putting his life into it. He Is all
ewes. all ears, all the time thinking
of better methods, improved ways of
doing things, and he finally becomes
a proprietor himself The other sees
nothing in his work but drudgery and
perpetual clerkship.
If you have a hundred acres Of land
and only four people to support, as
one correspondent states that he has,
il you have enough brain. ambition,
determination, and grit, you can not
only support the people depending up
on YOU but you can also give yourself
a good education-for you can buy all
the books you need-and if you are
good manager, if you have system,
you can have all the leisure you re-
quire for study.
If you are made of the stuff that
wins, nobody can keep you back, for
it you do not find your chance where
you are, you will find it somewhere
else. But remember that your achieve
ment can not rise higher than your
resolution. So long as you think you
are so tied down that you can not
move. you will ever get up or get
| on
The man who acknowledges that
he is perpetual clerk" will never
become manager or proprietor of any
thing until he changes his conviction.
His own lack of confidence and push,
not circumstances, is the chain which
binds him.
1t is as natural that we should OBJ
tain the thing we long for with all
our hearts, and persistently work to
obtain, as that stone should come
to the earth when hurled into the air.
The ambition. the desire. the longing,
the hunger, the struggle toward the
aim, these are the forces of gravita-
tion which bring us the desired re-
sult.-Orison SWEET Marden in "Suc-
cess Magazine.

ToLsToYs EXPERIENCE IN a.

1t is interesting lii connection with
tie present war to find in Prince Kro-
potkin's Russian Literature" an ac-
count of Tolstoy's youthful military
rrowess. 'He lived through all the
dreadful experiences of the defenders
of Sebastopol s He has the
right to speak of war; he knows it
from withil.' Kropotkin points out
the pertinent facts that Tolstoy "ob-
stinately refused during the siege to
become an officer of the staff, and re-
rained with his battery in the most
dangerous spots" and that though he
seems never again to have written
verse, he at that time composed, In
the unusual metre language of SOL
diers' songs, a satirical song in which
he described the blunders of the COM
manders which ended in the Balak-
lava disaster. The song, written in
an admirable popular style, could not
be printed, but it spread over Russia
in thousands Of copies, and was wide
ly sung, both during and Immediately
after the campaign. The name of the
author leaked out, but there was some
uncertainty as to whether it was the
author of the Sebastopol sketches or
some other Tolstoy." And now Toll
stoy's son is taking part in the new
war. The fathers attitude is reflected
in letter written recently by Nine.
Tolstoy to friend: "Some imagine
that the pepole are regarding war and
death with wisdom and equanimity.
This is not correct I am living in
the country. l have seen a son of nv
own off to war. I have experienced,
and seen these partings with heart
rending grief. and never have I wit
messed aught else than tears, sorrow
ard condemning Of the cause for
which the men were being sent away.
] know of only very few exceptions,
and those not among the people but
the educated younger genration.'
Tolstoy's doctrine is briefly, according
to Kropotkin's book: Don't resist
evil by violence"
