Merrymouth had more trouble than

he felt so funny that his mouth broke

He felt sure he could whistle II only
he could keep his pucker. He would
screw his mouth into a little gimlet-
hole and draw his breath In and 1t

would blow his breath out. but that
wasn't so successful. and before he
could get his tongue curled into the
right place his lips would break into

WHY NOT STOP THAT ITCH?
DOdsOn's Pharmacy Assures Relief
With Every 25 Cent Bottle.

j. G Dodson, of Dodson's Phar-
macy, of this town, says he has found
indisputable proof that eczema can be
cured-not in one or two case, but
in scores of studies he has studied.
He would not, of course, think Of
making such a recommendation to his
neighbors and patrons, were it not
that his years and years of success
with D. D. D. Prescription enables
him to speak of this remdy with con-
fidence. 1t is a gentle, soothing wash
with the mild oil of wintergreen as
a base. All the cures seem to be
permanent, at any rate, a trial bottle
at 25 cents will take away the itch
at once-instantly. We are sure of
this. Dodson's Pharmacy.

AFTER HOSIERY MILL
FOR AMERlCUS
Pres. Shiver Goes to Con-
suit With Parties.

President John w. @Shiver, of the
Board of Trade, will spend today or
tomorrow out OF tLe city, in consulta-
ton with parties who are interested in
the establishment of a hosiery MIL
and have Americus in mind as one Of
the points at which it might be deem
ed wise to locate it.
President Shiver determined that il
personal work would accomplish any
thing it would not be lacking in this
instance. The chief party in the pro-
ject was. accordingly wired that the
head of the Americus Board of Trade
would call on himfto lay the claims Of
this city before him.
. The hosiery mill that is contemplate
ed is understood to be one of fair pro-
portions. Whether Americus succeeds
in getting it or not, one thing is GER
tain, some gentlemen interested in
manufactures will know considerably
more about Americus after they meet
President Shiver than they have ever
known before. And that is something
gained.

BIG YIELD OF PEACHES
SEEMS NOW ASSURED
Trees Here Bending Under
Weight.
Fruit Finest in Years.
No Insects in Evil
dence Here.

With half a million peach trees
fruited to their capacity with healthy
young peaches, the big orchards about
Americus give assurance now of the
finest crop in years, and the owners
of these magnificent tracts Of waving
trees are correspondingly elated at
the golden prospect
The young peaches, now the size Of
partridge eggs, are firm and of a
healthy appearance, and show no evi-
dence of the sting of the much dread
ed curculio.
This is the bug that produces the
worm which attacks the peach, rem
dering it's worthless.
In the half dozen big orchards near
Americus very little evidence of the
curculio is to be seen, and orchard
owners are vigorously spraying trees
in order to ward off this plague. They
do not anticipate any danger from the
insects this season.
And if half the peaches now on the
trees remain, a bumper crop and brok-
en- boughs are assured for the weight
will be too great.
Americus orchards will begin ship
ping the first peaches of the early va
rieties late in May, and as other va
r:eties ripen the packing house force
will be kept busy until the Elberta
crop is shipped, between July 9Th
and Goth. The Elberta season is a
short and busy one.
Out at the Bagley-Gober Orchard
Co.'S plant, where 25O,OO0 trees will
yield a fine crop this year, all prep
ara ions are being made for handling
the crop expedit ously The same is
true of the Raymond, Ware, Hansford
and Waddell orchards. among the fin
est in this section.
Several hundred car loads of peach
es will be shipped from Americus and
the crop will be 4 profitable one this
year.
