FIRE RECORD IS GOING
TO SHOW UP WELL
AmeriCuS is Still Enjoying
Immunity.

Ten months without a blaze of any
consequence, is the splendid fire rec
ord enjoyed by Americus, and the
hope that good fortune will continue
on is fervently expressed. Few cities
the size of Americus are so blessed
in this way
Not since February 5th has there
been fire of consequence here, and
that one figured loss of probably
$3.50 only
OF course there have been numer-
GUS small fires that might have
resulted seriously but for efficient
work of the department, but there
is where the secret lies.
In the dozen or more incipient
blazes the loss sustained did not ex-
coed So or $25 at the most The de-
partment is always there promptly,
the situation is well handled, and the
insurance companies sustain little
loss
The burning of the compress. the
first of the year was a serious loss,
it is true, but that was unavoidable
A cotton fire is the most difficult of
all fires to cope with, and a dozen
departments could not have extin-
guished it.
The Americus department, is in
fire trim, and hopes to get through
the year with out another serious
blaze

There are great many phases of
Woman'S S ailments that require the as
sistance of the surgeon.
But by far the greatest number of
such cases are amenabIe to correct
medicinal treatment
A vast multitude of women have been
relieved from the ailments peculiar to
their sex through the use of Peruna as
prescribed by DIR. Hartman.
He receives many letters from all parts
of the country relating to subjects of
vital interest to womankind.
OF the vast multitude of women DIR.
Hartman treats annually, only small
per cent. of them consider it necessary
to write to the Doctor at all.
While it is not affirmed that Peruna
will relieve every case of this kind, it is
certainly the part of wisdom for every
woman so afflicted to give Peruna a
fair trial.

SPECIAL TRAIN
FROM AMERICUS
Over SedbOdrd for Sdvdn-
ndh'S Auto Races,

The Seaboard has made special
preparations to handle the Americas
visitors to the Automobile races il
Savannah on Thanksgiving day. A
special train over the Seaboard will
start from Americus, leaving here al
midnight on the 25th.
A sleeper will be on the siding al
the Seaboard station, and will be
open for passengers at 8 p. M. Short
ly before midnight the train will be
made up, the sleeping passengers not
being disturbed. The train will reach
Savannah at 1880 o'clock on Thanks
giving morning. Returning, the spe-
m., and passengers can occupy their
births until Z o'clock of the following
morning.
While the Seaboard has a train due
in Savannah within two hours of the
arrival of the special, the road has
decided, that as regular train is
more liable to delays than a special
to provide Americus with the luxury
of the former.
The round trip rate, exclusive oi
the sleeper fare, is $40, which in
cludes admission to the races. Fol-
those who do not desire to return on
Thanksgiving night, tickets are good
up to and including Nov 80.
Reservations of berths can be OBJ
tanned from Mr. H. p Everett, agent
of the Seaboard at this office adjoin-
is the Seaboard station BY prompt
application, visitors to the races car
be sure of a good berth. 1922

You cannot be over-careful in the

lasting annoyance.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexall Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable remedy
for constipation and associate bowel
disorders We have such absolute
faith in the supreme virtues of this
remedy that we sell it on our guar
antee of money back in every instance
where it fails to give entire satisfac-
ton, and we urge all in need of such
medicine to try it at our risk.
+ Rexall Orderlies contain an en-
tiTely new ingredient which is odor-
less, tasteless and colorless. 1t en-
braces all the best qualities of the
soothing, laxative, strengthening and
healing remedial active principles of
the best known intestinal regulator

RexaIl orderlies are extremely
pleasant to take, are particularly
prompt and agreeable in action, may
be taken at any time, day or night;
dc not cause diarrhoea, nausea, grip
ing, excessive looseness, or other
undesirable effects. They have a
very natural action upon the glands
and organs with which they come in

Rexall Orderlies not only cure con-

normal condition.

Committee to Have Meet.
ing Today.

The democratic voters of Americus
will be informed this afternoon just
when they are expected to rally al
the polls of the city primary and
name. the next mayor of Americus
three members of the aldermanic
board and city clerk.
The executive committee will meet
this afternoon and formally call the
primary
This is what many prospective can
didates are impatiently waiting for
and with the date formally set they
will proceed to get into the running
at once.
In fact, several of them are there
already, particularly in the mayoralty
contest, and already three avowed
candidates have been seeing the
boys" But the formal action of the
executive committee will put others
into the race
1t would not be surprising if the
Times-Recorder tomorrow carried sew
eral announcements for offices muni-
cipal.
1t is rather expected that some
date about December 2nd or 3rd will
be selected
tee, while informally discussing the
primary, yesterday, suggested one OF
these dates as suitable, and he is
doubtless quite right This would
afford the candidates ample time for
their campaigning.
In fact, long campaign would be
quite undesirable, after long series
of elections.
The primary last year was held
the first week in December, as will
doubtless be the case this year. The
regular election will be held about
December 18th or 10th, and thus
nearly two weeks will intervene be-
tween these dates.
The primary will be held independ-
emily of the proposed citizens meet
ing, which it is understood will be
held on Monday.

SALE AT RYLANDER'S
BEGINS THIS MORNING
Cutting of Prices Will Be
Genuine

The Rylander Shoe Co. announces
today the inauguration of cut prices
on the entire new fall and winter
stock of clothing carried by this old
and reliable house. The sale opens
this morning, and will be continued
until further notice.
This announcement bears the
stamp of genuineness, and every
man and woman within a radius of
fifty miles of Americus knows it is
a genuine sale.
There will be no fake; the value
upon every suit of clothes in the
house is cut exactly in half
The Rylander Shoe Co, was 10th
to inaugurate a sale, and especially
at this time when the trade of the
town is thoroughly and completely de-
moralized. But conditions have fore
ed it, and the Rylander Shoe Co. will
meet the issue.
The character and reputation of
this old house is too thoroughly es-
tablished to admit of any suspicion of
fake sales" It has the unbounded
confidence of the public, and every
body knows that a statement made
there is good as currency.
The sale starts this morning, and
price cutting of new and seasonable
goods is genuine. No old and shoddy
stuff to work off at alleged cut
price. Every suit in the house at
fifty cents on the dollar.

BIG AREA Is PLANTED
IN OATS IN SUMIER
The Crop Next Year BE
Immense

A favorable sign of the times" is
the unusually large oat crop that has
been planted in Sumter county this
fall, insuring as it does an immense
forage crop next spring. Americus
supply dealers, all of them, declare
that never before have they sold such
quantities of seed oats, and the good
work is going on still among the late
planters. This year the farmers have
sold cotton at the lowest price and
at the same time paid higher prices
for oats and corn than in many years
past. Corn has sold at 81 per bushel
and oats proportionately high, while
the bulk of the cotton crop was sold
at S1a cents. Next year, it is hoped,
conditions will be reversed
