CHILDREN ARE GETTING ON
WELL AT. THE HOSPITAL
Five Little Ones From Sumter County
There Now.

Five little children, all residents of
Sumter county, and i'll with fever, are
now being tenderly cared for in the
Americus Hospital, where, without the
cost Of a penny to their relatives, they
are receiving every care and atten-
ton, and all are upon the road to re-
covery.
This is but one single instance of
the many eyidencing the great and hu-
name work done by this splendid
charity in Americus.
OF the five children, two are mem
bers of the Brooks family living four
or five miles east of Americus, three
of which died with fever quite recent
ly.
When the two children were also
stricken, kind friends went to their
relief mad brought them to the Hos
pital here. The very best care and
attention is bestowed upon these lit
tie ones, and their lives will be saved.
1t might have been different but for
the treatment given them here.
No city has a grander charity than
Americus in her hospital, where peo-
pleple of means and those without are
cared for alike. Surely such an in

THE MILLS MAY CLOSE
ON ACCOUNT OF PRICE
Claims Price of Cotton is
Too High.
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

Charlotte, N. c., Oct. A critical
situation and one or rare occurrence
confronts Southern cotton mills be-
cause of the high price of raw cotton
and unless there is a decided drop in
the price of the staple in less than
two weeks, according to ex-President
S. B. Tanner of the Manufacturers
Association, Southern mills will be
forced to shut down.
''It is very easy question to an
swer,' said Mr.. Tanner, "as to what
the mills, both cloth and yarn, will
do in the event of 13 cents cotton
continuing as at present.
1T will mean that there will be no
money in textile products and the
mills, after using up what small stocks
of cotton they have on hand, will have
to shut down-that is, if cloth and
yarn do not take jump, bigger
jump than cotton manufacturers would
expect under the circumstances"
1t was further declared that the
mills are buying no cotton at prevail
ing figures-13 cents-nor will they
lay in stocks at that figure, for the
quotations on goods and yarns are
too low to leave any profit to the
manufacturer. In other words, the
mill that makes yarn or cloth out of
13-cent cotton and sells it's product at
prevailing prices will lose its profit
and great deal more. In fact, the
proposition is impractical and will not
be experimental in by any of the man.
ufacturers.
Many of the mills have some little
cotton on hand which they stored
when cotton was bringing 10 and IL
cents, but these stocks are short and
will shortly be exhausted
President Parker of the American
Cotton Manufacturers Association has
called a meeting of the board of gov
ernors for Friday, Oct. s, in Charlotte
to consider the question of curtail-
ment of production in order to make
| the present stocks Of the mills go as
far as possible and to operate on high
priced cotton at as little loss as pos
sible.
| The governors will also select the
place for next meeting of the associa-
ton.

FOR CONSTIPATION.
A Medicine That Does Not Cost Any.
thing Unless Ii Gives Salts
factory Relief.

If you suffer from constipation in
any form whatever, cute or chronic,
we will guarantee to supply you med
icine that we honestly believe will
effect permanent relief if taken with
regularity and according to directions
for reasonable length of time
Should the medicine fail to benefit
you to your entire satisfaction we
promise that it shall cost you moth
ing.
No other remedy can be compared
with Rexall Orderlies for the easy,
pleasant and successful treatment of
constipation. The active medicinal
ingredient of this remedy, which is
odorless, tasteless and colorless, is
an entirely new discovery. Combined
with other valuable ingredients, it
forms a preparation which is incom-
parable as a perfect bowel regulator,
intestinal invigorator and strengthen
er. Rexall Orderlies are eaten like
candy, and are notable for their gentle
and agreeable action. They do not
cause gripping or any disagreeable ef-
feet or inconvenience, and may be
taken at any time, day or night.
We particularly recommend Rexall
Orderlies for children and for delicate
or aged persons, because they do not
contain anything injurious. Unlike
other preparations, they do not create
a habit, but instead they overcome
the habits acquired through the use
of ordinary laxatives, cathartics, an(
harsh physic, and remove the causes
of constipation or irregular bowel ac
tion that are not of surgical variety.
We want you to try ReXall Orderlie'
at our risk. We know of nothing tina
will do you SO much good. They arr
prepared in tablet form in two sizes

.SfA6OARD IS SOON TO
REGAIN OLD POSITION
Finish of ReCeiyerShip in
Sight Now.

In railroad circles the belief that
receivership OF the Seaboard Air Line
viii come 10 an end before the first OF
the year is growing in strength every
day. Some officials think the road
will be cut Of jhe receivers hands
shortly after the FIRST of November, al
though no definite information to this
effect has been received here.
There is no doubt that the improved
conditions of the road will make it
possible for the dismissal of receivers
at an earlier date than anticipated
months ago
The taking over of the Plant City,
Arcadia West Coast road, with proper
ties of the Tampa Terminal Company,
is regarded as one of the signs of the
near end of the receivership
The report that the Seaboard was al
so interested in the Georgia and Ala
bama which has only recently COM
pleted an extension from Cuthbert to
Richland, making a connection with
the Seaboard is not credited very
generally.
Many improvements will be made to
care for the expected increase of the
future. 1t is known that the main line
from Richmond south will be improv-
ed and additional rolling stock is to
be purchased Among the passenger
equipment steel cars will be one of the
chief items.
When the reorganization is perfect
ed it is believed that L. G. Haas, now
acting as agent for the receivers, will

FOR VOTERS OF SUMlER
RULES WILL BE RIGID
Must Register Six Months
Before Election.

Owing to erroneous impressions Gre
ated by certain publications with
reference to Georgia's new registra-
ton law, under which voters must reg
lister for the elections of 1910, At
torney General Hart has prepared in
pamphlet form letter answering GER
tain questions and elucidating certain
features of the law.
Copies of this letter will be furnish
ed to all tax collectors of the state de-
string it, and from it they may gather
some important information relative
to their duties in connection with reg
istration.
The information will be of value to
the citizen who desires to register and
qualify for voting; for unless he is
familiar with the requirements he is
liable to overlook some one of the
kinks in it which would result in dis
franchisement.
The registration books are to be
closed six months before the election,
and the state primary cannot be held
earlier than sixty days prior to the
regular state election.
The citizen desiring to qualify for
voting must present himself in person
before the tax collector and, at the
time of paying his taxes, subscribe to
the voters oath and sign his name in
the voters book.
1t will be apparent how these re-
quirements are likely to result in the
disfranchisement of many white voters
in Georgia, through carelessness, ov-
ersight or, now and then, as a result
of providential causes.
When a citizen goes to the tax col
lectors office he must register then
and there, and it is up to him to think
about it and to do it, if he wishes to
protect his right.
This is applicable to the man who
pays only poll tax and has been in
the habit of paying it, often, when his
attention it attracted as the result of
an election in order that he might pre-
serve his right of franchise. Now he
must go and pay it six months in ad-
vance of the election, or lose his right
to vote
Proyi,5;on is made for the registra-
tions1l- those. among others, who are
exempt from taxation by reason of
having reached the age limit, but they,
too, must present themselves for COM
pliance with the law six months in
advance.
No provision appears to have been
made for the exercise of franchise by
the young man who attains his ma
jority between the time of the closing
of the registration books and the cleo
ton, and it would appear, until the
law is amended, he is out of the vot-
ing altogether.
Collector Brown Small will soon re-
ceive instructions regarding registra-
ton
