NEWBRO'S
HERPICIDE

The discovery of the dan
druff germ as the cause of
all hair troubles is not a re-
cent event. Prof. Unna gave
the germ theory to the world
in 1887 and two years later
Sebouraud by his expert
ments with a rabbit proved
beyond a doubt the actual
eNstences of this germ.
On theaheels of this estab-
lishment 'of the germ theory
came the discovery of New
bros Herpicide. This was
the first and only remedy
for the destruction of the
dandruff germ.
There have been other
preparations alleged to kill
this germ, stop falling hair
and itching of the scalp.
But Newbro's Herpicide
really does these things.
For this reason it has long
been known as the OriuinaI
Remedy and the only enc
that is genuine.
Don't be fooled by pre-
parations which are trading
upon the marvellous success
of Herpicide. Remember you
take no chances with New
bros Herpicide. It is abso-
lutely guaranteed.
For sale by all druggists.
Applications at good barber
shops.

troit, Mich, Dept. 3SB., will send

(From the Forsyth County Local.


1R. EDITOR: Three weeks ago
IMI tomorrow there came to our
town and delivered an address
a man who is perhaps the most
widely known of any living Georgian.
In his audience were citizens from
every nook and corner of our county
and not a few from beyond it's limits.
So great an audience has rarely if
ever gathered in our city.
The speaker has been twice nam
ed by the pOpulists of the nation as
it's nominee for president. He serv-
ed,I believe two years in the National
Congress during which time there
came into existance branch of gov
eminent service undreamed of before,
calld the Rural Free Delivery sys-
tenn" A pretty good proof one
must believe that his heart is with the
farmer.
All mail carriers as we'll as farm
ers will tell you that this is an excel1-
ent law. Defeated in his second race
for Congress he wheeled away from
politics, shut himself in his library
and produced a history of the French
People and their great Emperor, the
evinCing a greater research and
knowledge than any history ever
written by Southern historian.
A knowledge of these achieve
ments, however, was not what packed
our Court House that Saturday morn
ing.
Our people only knew that Tom
Watson was going to speak
Tom, the natural foe of all aristoc-
racy and sinecures. Tom who is
against all laws which do not rest
the burden of government equally
on all the people. Tom who can
take either side of any argument
and Invariably worst his opponent
and for this reason you frequently
cannot tell whether his position be
right or wrong. Tom, like all men
of great influence with the people,
Lincoln or Jackson for instance,
sprang from among them. Lincoln
used to say 81 don't think my people
were of the First Families of Virgin
ia, they belonged / think to about
the eighth or TENTH
But old Abe was so big and human
and strong and knit the Federal
states so close together that our
South struggled in vain to tear itself
out of the Union.
Tom told us among other things
of matter of which | had never
heard before except from one man.
He said the Southern States has and
has had since reconstruction over
100000, 100000 lying in the treasury,
same being illegal taxation, acknowl-
edge by the Supreme Court, levied on
us after the war. ASK your Con-
gresham is it isn't So" said Tom,
land tell him to help you get it,
He said Georgia has more homi-
cides and UNPUBLISHED crime with it's
two million people than the whole of
England has with twenty times it's
population, and whiskey is at the bot
tom of nearly all Of it. Bearing out
this statement hear the language of
one of our lawyers in the Court house
last week.

A Revje10 of Mr.. WQfs0n's Address

I'm all my criminal practice in
South Georgia | cannot recall a single
case in which whisky was not the
moving cause of the deed" Words
we'll worth considering.
Tom had a word to say of our So
Tcitors and Fee System. Oh, says
he our solicitors are energetic, bril-
liant, agreeable hardly open to criti-
cism at all, but lets do away with the
Fee System and put them on a salary
thereby not imposing them to temp
tation. So many little old cases that
cost us so much money would prob
ably never be worked up if it were
not for our Fee System.
ooh, people, temptation alone so
often proves too strong for poor man,
lets not place temptation and oppor-
tunity both before him!" Tom did
not go into any flight of oratory but
he dropped one sentence which lets us
know what he could do. l speak of
the one in which he paid his respects
to the race and blood to which all Of
his audience belonged. This has
been theme on which all of our
orators have loved to speak, for no
matter how vain and proud, and en-
ViOus and contentious and grasping
and full of faults, generally we may
be, it has pleased Providence to make
us the firs4 among the races of man.
"This mighty people" says Webster
speaking of the English, "has planted
it's colonies on every continent and
island of the sea; on it's empire the
sun never sets and the morning revile
of it's soldiers circles the worlds with
the music of the martial ais of Eng
land" During the agitation of the
Force Bill in the latter eighties
Henry Grady after arguing the folly
of the proposed bill for several min
utes suddenly burst forth with the
following eloquent words: "But this
is a race problem and let us discuss
it from this point.
Here the air is pure and clear and
we have the light of history to guide
us. The Anglo Saxon flock has con-
quered everywhere and at every time.
cit gathered about Hamden beneath
the oak; it Numbered in CROMWELL
veins when he fought his king, it
carried the drum-beat of England
around the world; it humbled
Napoleon at Waterloo; it conquered
this wilderness, wrested it from the
English and at last shilling it's own
tumult has made it the home of the
anglo saxon race and the theater
of it's transcendent achievements"
The unflinching grit of a dying
British soldier was not lost on poet
Burns.
Death Comes with fearless eye
he sees him
With bloody hand a welcome
gives him
And his latest breathing leaves
him
In faint huZzas."
So Tom, summing up and boiling
down all these things tersely remark
ed wherever the Anglo-Saxon sets
his foot he's boss"
