The Late Mayor.

No fulsOme praise would | bring
to the bier of our dead mayor. Let
those who knew him best weave inn
mortelles to his memory. l would
lay upon the new made grave a sim
pie white flower, for well do l re-
call a few months ago when a great
moral issue confronted this people
how he courageously and uncompro-
misingly stood for what he believed
TO be right in the face of the strong
est opposition from some of his best
friends Without waiting for the
prohibition cause to become popular
Mayor Nasworthy threw the whole
weight of his strong personality and
official position against the forces for
evil so strongly entrenched in our
county, boldly proclaiming his prin-
ciples to the world. He was not
only an advocate of temperance, but
of everything that would uplift hui
mainly. May the shoulders upon
which his mantle shall rest wear it
as wOrthily. UNKNOWN.

ANOTHER HEROD MARRIAGE
Popular Young Lady Becomes Bride
of an Albany Man. Miss McLain
and Mr.. Duggan Wed.

One of the most beautiful and in
teresting social events of a season
which has been crowded with various
functions was the wedding of Mr..
Hugh Willet Duggan and Miss Rubie
Cathryn McLain, which occurred last
Thursday at 1920 a. m. at the resi-
dence of Mrs. j. j. McLain, mother
of the bride, near Herod.
The lovely home, which was filled
with friends and relatives of the
young couple, was beautiful in its
decorations of pot plants. The i'm
provised chancel was banked with
palms and ferns.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. D. S. Dennard, a brother-in-
law of the bride, and although his
first attempt it was pronounced by old
wedding-goers as the most beautiful
and impressive one they had ever
heard. The wedding music was rem
dered by Mrs. J. p. Hanna, the
brides Sabbath school teacher. Men
delssohn's wedding march was used
as a professional. AS pretty in
ovation to the many recent mar
riages there were no attendants. The
bride and groom entered together
and to the accompaniment of softly
rendered music their vows were
plighted and they entered the holy
and happy domains of matrimony.
The brides exquisite costume was
of blue silk with white lace blouse,
with hat and gloves en- suite, and
her shower boquet was of white hya-
cinths and narcissus. Among the
many handsome bridal gifts were
four checks for goodly amounts.
Mrs. Duggan has magnetic charm
of manner, beautiful face, pure re-
ligious character and decided social
gifts She is a graduate of Andrew
college, Mr.. Duggan is connected
with the mail service, is man of
many fine traits of character, and
comes from one of the first families
of the state
Congratulations were mingled with
regrets that this marriage will take
away the lovely bride from Herod.
Mr.. and Mrs. Duggan left Immediate
ly for their new home in Albany, fol-
lowed by the best wishes of all for
their future happiness and prosper

SOUTHERN LIES SUCCESS
Home Insurance Company That
Has Passed the Experimental
Stage. Growing Every Day.

Dawson has an enterprise that is
fully demonstrating the wisdom and
sound business policy of keeping the
thousands of dollars paid every year
for insurance at home.
The Southern Life Insurance Com
pany was organized two years ago,
with home capital and home people
in charge of its business, and has
been success from its inception
Besides the Terrell county division
large and flourishing divisions have
been established in other counties,
and the company's operations will be
still further extended.
In the Terrell county division last
year the company was called on to
pay only nine death claims, those of
Mrs. F. L. Bishop, Mrs. U. l.. John
son, Mrs. M. M. Everett, Mr.. j. T.
McCorkle, Mr.. r. F. Lunday, Mr..
j. f. Petty, Mrs. Maggie Sheppard,
Mr.. V. T. Finney and Mrs. E. B.
Holder. Each beneficiary received
100000 without any pickering or
delay, and to pay these nine claims
only six assessments were levied,
making remarkably cheap insurance
when compared to the high rates of
old line companies, which are no
safer. Mortality tables, on which
the rates of other insurance is based,
-I no toI
of from 16 to 60 years is II per
thousand while that of the Southern
Life has been three less-only nine.
Lapses in the company are now
less than one-tenth what they were
when it begun business, which shows
more clearly than anything else in
what esteem every policy-holder re-
CARDS his insurance
The division is decidedly stronger
than ever before, and there is posi-
lively no danger of failure to pay
the full 100000 on every death.
The company is now out of the
experimental stage, and is here as a
permanent fixture. It's growth in the
first two years, and the strength it
has gathered as it has moved along,
encourages the promoters to greater
effort, and they propose this year to
write twice the business they have
in the two years gone by.
Messrs. T. E. Gurr, S. A. Loyless
and D. C. Pickett are actively look
ing after the affairs of the Southern
Life, and while pushing its business
and extending it into new territory
will keep it moving along safe, sound
and conservative lines

DANGER OF CATARRH.
Unless Properly Treated With Hyo-
mel Becomes Serious.

Unless Properly Treated With Hyo-
mel Becomes Serious.
Catarrhal troubles are far more
dangerous than they seem at first
thought
If. you have catarrh there is an ir-
ritated state of the mucous mem
brane and weakened tissues which
afford an ideal logment and culture
medium for disease germs, especial
ly those of consumption.
You should get cured as quickly
as possible before any dangerous
germs that you may breathe lodge
on the diseased tissue and work de-
struction in the throat and lungs.
The easiest, simplest, quickest,
surest and cheapest way to cure ca
tarrh is by the direct method, breath
ing Hyomei This wonderful medi-
Gated air treatment does not drug
and derange the stomach, but is
breathed in, directly following and
destroying all disease germs that may
have been inhaled.
The unusual way in which HyOmei
is sold by the Dawson Drug Co. and
Peoples Drug Store is the best evil
dence of their confidence in the treat
ment and should dispel all doubt as
to it's curative properties. They
agree to refund the purchase price
to anyone whom Hyomei fails to
benefit, and you do not risk a cent
in testing it's healing virtues. A COM
plete outfit costs but $1.00 if it helps
you, not a cent if it does not do all
that is claimed for it,
