CURED RHEUMATISM

Nearly everybody is susceptible to q
twinge of rheumatism, sciatica, tooth
ache, headache or neuralgia, and it's
never safe to be without a good rem

No matter what kind of pain you
have the beneficial effect of Sloan S
Eminent is immediate. You lay it on
lightly-no rubbing whatever and a
pleasant warmth is felt at once. The

and quickly stops the pain.

been anticipated it was decided to
wait until the meeting on the First
Monday In December to discuss needed
legislation and instruct the Maury
county Representatives with refer
ence thereto. About forty new Nom

FIEyENS VERY EVENLY MATCH. D

Of the Game.-Stars Of
Tho Event.

Before the largest crowd at the
Academy for many months, in clean
ont hard fought game, the rival teams
NJ vaury county. Branham & Hughes
and the Columbia Military Academy,
rIayed one another to a standstill
saturday afternoon, the final score be-
ipe d 10 0. 1t was indeed as near a
RE zane as one ever sees and if there
was any advantage it was with the
cadets
The visitors had an apparent adj
vantage in weight, but it was a rare
thing for them to make any marked
gains through line or around end and
the same can be said in large measure
of the cadets, both sides having to
mint frequently. The game was snap
nv and free from fumbles to a large
extent. The visitors outplayed the
cadets in the execution of the forward
mass. making several nice gains in this
manner. while the few passes at
tempted by the cadets were too slow
and were blocked in almost every
instance. Both sides tackled nicely
and put up good interference, and both
were in the game every minute and
were out to win.
The cadets showed good control
and good head work when with the
ball within their five-yard line they
held the visitors for downs and got
the ball in a safe position. On the
other hand Tomlinson for the cadets,
made a long run and went over the
goal line of the visitors, but was
tackled as he crossed the line and the
ball was knocked from his arms.
There was one smuggling match near
the close of the game and one man on
each side was retired by the officials, |
but to those on the side lines, who |
were close by and saw the affair it ap- |
peared that the C. M "A. man was
treated unfairly and made no effort to
slug his opponent. The c. M A. man
was on his back at the time with the
ball under his arm and could not have
done any smuggling if he had wished to,
with a boy much larger on top of him
raining blows on his face and body.
Clark, the crack quarterback of the
cadets managed the team admirably
and gave them more spirit and ginger
than they have shown this season.
Not only that but Clark put up an
excellent game and was one of the
hardest propositions the visitors had.
His quarterback runs netted nice
gains, he was cool and quick in re-
turning punts tackled well and was
himself hard to tackle. Tomlinson,
Black, Haywood and Davidson also
played the game of their lives, but the
entire team put up good work.
For the visitors Gordon, right half,
played the star game and his runs
lround end netted frequent and nice
gains. Smith, their big tackle, went
trough the line frequently for gains
md it took about two men to stop
i'm when he was once started. Dou- u
leday, at quarter, played nice game y
nd had good control.

Former Fulton County Boy Gives News
Correspondents Some Timely Advice.


Mr.. B. w. Peck,
DEAR FRIEND Enclosed find
Postal Order for which please
place my name on the glad side
OF your ledger and continue to
keep US posted on the dolngs in
dear Lhttle Fulton.
The News comes to our home
as regularly as the weeks come
and 90, and is read as carefully
as Last Will and Testament, inn
parting to us the good tldings,
and sometimes the bad, of many
we love, who do not care enough
for US to write a letter, even occa-
slonally. But, o, how much more
real good we could derive from
the Fulton County News, If all
your correspondents throughout
the county would only take the
time to write the names instead
of giving just the initials as they
chronicle the happenings of their
respective communities. For in
stance, short time ago, / saw
the name II. X. Hill. cannot be
sure whether that Is Harry Hill,
the school teacher, with whom |
used to go to school; or Howard
Hill, the huckster, with whom
used to play in the band; or Hi
ram Hill, the farmer, who used
to buy goods at my fathers store
or some other Fulton county
Hill unknown to me.
L was well acquainted with
each of the three above named
gentleman. but am sorry to say
1 could not emember the exact
Initials of either. This is only
one little incident. In this week Is
News we have account of Mr.. d.
D. Garland returning from Cum.
berland, Md, while In the same
issue D. .Garland spent a week In
Fort Royal Va. Now, when ]
rack my memory little 1 find
a David Garland. a Daniel Gar.
land and a Dale Garland, and
am still trying to figure out
which one stald at home.
Trusting this little suggestion
may he received In the spirit in
which 1t is given--fully believing
that many of your readers scat
tered over the PLAINS remember
many of their friends whose
initials they have forgotten, but
whose names they love to see ir
print.
With best wishes I remain.
Sincerely yours,

Quite an excitement was raised
last Saturday morning when
word went over the telephone
that Eslle Fosters house was on

that it was the shop instead. The
house would have taken fire if IT

were bad and he had nothing else

He thought he had a heavy load,
so before they were ready to start
home IN the evening, he had them
put on the scales--when it was
found he had almost a ton of la
dies. Mr.. Early contended thai
the load was heavier than when
he came, which was probably
true as they had all done ample

LOOK OUT FOR THE OFFICER.
George Suders, Of this Place, Appointed
by the Pennsylvania Society for The
Prevention of Cruelty 10 Animals.


For the better carrying out of
the provisions of the act of as.
sembly for the protection of ami.
mails IN the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, George Suders of
McConnellsburg has been ap
pointed for this district, and it
may be of interest to our readers
to give the law as it stands on
our statute books in reference to
this subject. Among other
things. the Act of March 10, 1869
says:
"Anv person who shall, within
this commonwealth, wantonly or
cruelty Ill treat, overload, beat, or
otherwise abuse any animal,
whether belonging to himself or
otherwise, shall be
deemed guilty of mlsdemeanor,
and on being convicted thereof
before any Alderman or Magis-
trate, shall be fined by the said
Alderman or Magistrate for the
first offense in sum not less than
$40, nor more than $50; and for
the second and every subsequent
offense IN sum not less than 800,
nor more than $50, = or
upon such binding over or com.
mltment appear before the said
Court, and be there convicted oi
such mlsdemeanor, he shall be
sentenced to pay fine not ex
ceedlng two hundred dollars, pay
able as aforesaid, or undergo an
imprisonment not exceeding one
year, or both, at the discretion OF
the Court"
A very wise man, long time
ago, said ga good man is mercl
full to his beast" and any effort
put forth for the cultivation o.
humane feelings IN our growing
generation ought to meet witt
the hearty approval and co-opera
ton of all good citizens.

Just a Word More.

We would be ungrateful if we
did not thank the many subscrlb-
ers who have come IN and settled
their arrearages to the Fulton
County News and paid a year In
advance, IN response to our no.
tice Of the recent ruling of the
Postoffice Department, to discon-
tinue the sending of papers to
subscribers who are1more than a
year IN arrears. The Depart
ment, in order not to inconven-
fence any one, has extended the
time to April 1st.
Now, friends, we do not want
to cut from our list a single sub
scriber; aud in order that we may
be saved this unpleasant duty,
we ask that the few who have not
yet settled their back subscrip-
tion, will attend to 1t promptly.
Next week will be court week,
and many people from all parts of
the County will be In town. If
you do not get to town yourself,
send the money with some one Of
your neighbors. The amount
owed is small. 1t Is not like pay
ing for horse or a COW, and it
can be easily paid If you only at
tend to it.
Our subscribers we'll know that
we have not been urgent hereto
fore, and would not now, if the
Postoffice Department did not
compel us to ask for settlement.
OF course, we can still send you
the paper, but the increased rate
of postage would make the paper
cost you entirely toe much, and
we would not be any better off.
To those away from the coun-
ty, we ask that you send us the
amount by mail between this and
the first of April, and save us
the unpleasant task of placing
the accounts for collection.
You can tell just how much
you owe as we'll as we can.
Your last receipt is printed on
the label of your paper every
week. Thus; John Smith 8 21 03
means September 2l, 1908, and,
of course, Smith owes from that
date TO the present.
The first figure means the
numoer Of the month, that is, 8
means the ninth month which Is
September. The second figures
tell the day OF that month, and
the third figures tell the year---
03 means 1908.
