Two women, walking along one Of
the business thoroughfares of the
city, heard a great shouting Of 'Ex-
try, extry," and looked about to see
where all the noise was coming from.
Across the street they spied one
very small newsboy shouting with all
his might.
One of the women, attracting the
boys attention, called him to her and
bought a paper; then, as she dropped
the pennies into the little fellows
hand, she said:
you mustn't make so much noise.
my little man; you can sell your pa
pers just as we'll without yelling So"
For half a second the boy looked
up at her in surprise. then exclaimed:

of the strangest is thct shown in the

tones of the weirdest nature, and is

DEATH OF A FORMER CITIZEN
Daughter Pays Loving Tribute to
Memory of Her Father.

On January 26, 1909, the angels
visited our home and took from us
our dear papa. After a brief illness
of six months with consumption he
passed from the scenes of his labors
to his well-earned reward above.
My dear papa was born in middle
Georgia, Pike county, March 25,
1898. He came to Terrell county in
1S49, and there Joined the Methodist
church-old New Hope. He moved
to Colquit county in January, 1906.
There he was for three long years.
On January 2, 1909 he moved to
Mitchell county. He was emphati-
cally a good husband, a faithful
father, always setting before his
household the example of spotless
christian character. He loved the
church, and was ever ready to 60.

Dawson, Ga.

Dear Sir: New Orleans is one Of
the cities hard on paint; but, never
theless, they paint lead-and-oil a
good deal there.
A G Caller painted two houses
last year for Hindered: one lead
and-oil and the other Devoe. The
first is already in bad condition.; De-
voc is good for six years there.
In Florida, where lead-and-oil
wears only year, we have no COM
plant of Devoe and we know of it's
wearing ten years in several in
stances. We don't say it wears ten
years, you know; there are such in
stances
mo complaint" is enough to say
till we have longtime experiences;
they're coming. Meantime, Devoe is
the paint that takes least gallons,
makes least bill, and wears longest.
So much we're sure of. Yours truly

more than a fair share of the aches
and pains that af1ict humanity: they

ties in spite of constantly aching
backs, or headaches, dizzy spells,
bearing-down pains; they must stoop
over, when to stoop means torture.
They must walk and bend and work
with racking pains and many aches
from kidney Ills. Kidneys cause
more suffering than any other organ
of the body. Keep the kidneys well
and health is easily maintained.

had been an accomplished fact. He is
accompanied by an expert. and it is
believed will Inspect the winter wheat

The easy tone at the start was due to
