PEOPLE OF AMERICUS
Do NOT DOUBT
As Proofs of a Local Nature Are So
Numerous.

Those who have investigated the
claims that are made for the wonder
full Root Juice do not doubt it's great
merit, as proofs of local nature are
sufficiently numerous to convince the
most skeptical. Scores of home peo-
pie are rapidly recovering health after
using the remedy but few days, and
many of them are enthusiastically
recommending it to their friends. As
a result people are going in numbers
through all hours of the doy to How
ellis drug store to see about it, and
many of them are buying it for them
selves and friends, and some who are
using it are even advising their
friends by phone to use it.
A leading business man said a we'll
known lady 'phoned him and said she
had suffered with a bad stomach and
bowel trouble long time, and tried
many different things without relief,
but after hearing so much of Root
Juice she got some of it and has only
been using it short while, but the
results are wonderful. She said she
couldn't praise it sufficiently, as it has
done so much good for her Such
talk is being heard all over town.
Root Juice is certainly wonderful
for troubles o fthe stomach,
liver and kidneys. The demonstra-
tions are now being conducted at
Howell's drug store. The people at
the drug store are well posted in re-
lation to the remedy and are glad 10
power. Many are calling for a descrip-
tive circular.

CLARK'S FATHER WAS
A new JERSEY man
Of Rowing Nature Married
Beautiful Kentucky Girl

LawrencebuEg, KY, February u.s.
While Champ Clark has risen into
prominence, his road has not been
streWn with roses, and it has been
through the hardest kind Of digging
that he has reached the Speakarship.
Born in Anderson county among the
cliffs along the Kentucky River, whose
scenery is often compared to that Of
the beautiful Hudson, Clark was i'm
INJURED within the confines of nature
The home Of Clark was similar to thar
of other pioneer homes, consisting Of
three rooms, the sitting room, the bed
room, and the kitchen and dining room
combined.
At the time Of Clark's birth there
were no railroads in this section Of
the country, and the farmers rode Oh
horseback to the nearest grocery
store" and postoffice for their supplies
and mail.
Reared in what was then almost a
wilderness, Champ Clark, in his earl
lest childhood was a student of nature.
He loved the little spring beauties
which were found in the woods nasrI-
ing in the grass and weeds, the old
fashioned thousand-leaf rose, which
blossomed in midsummer, and the
goldenrod, which betokened the com
ing of winter. He knew the voices OF
of the bob white, the thrush, the mock
ing bird, and a score of other birds Of
beautiful plumage which made their
homes in the hills
John Hampton Clark, Champ Clark 5
father, was native of New Jersey,
and was born where Atlant C City now
stands, He was a wanderer and roved
from Philadelphia to New Orleans,
then worked his way up the MISSISSIPPI
pi and the Ohio to Louisville. The city
proved not to the liking Of the yigor-
Gus young adyenturer, and he finally
drifted to Lawrenceburg. There he met
Althea Beauchamp. She was a frail,
beautiful girl, and the wanderer quick
ly succumbed to her charms. He lost
all desire to roam further, and after
an ardent courtship persuaded her 20
become his wife. He was an educated
man, mechanical genius, and an en-
thusiastic exponent of the doctrine of
Democracy. Mrs. Clark was also well
educated for those days, having re-
ceived six years schooling" in a con-
vent.

that AWFUL BOIL
WEEVIL CONSPIRACY
Fun POkGd is at the Recent
Terrible Plot
Washington Post.)

Out of Georgia comes the fearful
news of a dastardly scheme which for
ruthless cruelty has not been equal
led since the days of Guy Fawkes and
the gunpowder plot. King Cotton,
already threatened with dethronement
ruthless cruelty has not been equaled
Harassed by the Vaccinations of New
York brokers, London dealers and Ian
cashire spinners, his dominance is
maintained by the hardest work, Will
within his borders the cohorts OF
the Iordly corn are d sputing every
inch OF the ground. To this must
be added the malefc powers of ma,
ture rains and tall grass in the low
lands, drougths in the uplands, boil
rot and black root Added thereto the
steady encroachment of the boil Wee
vii makes the situation precarious.
And now the evil ingenuity of man,
taking advantage of this last. pest,
purposes to bring about the final d.
strucuon Of the cotton industry. Gov
elect Hoke Smith has received news.
and sounds abroad the clarion note Of
warning to a shuddering world Two
men have succeeded in capturing a
small army Of boil weevils, which are
safely sealed in a pickle jar These
are to be released in various portions
of the cotton belt. The weevil will do
the rest
What is to be done? How are these
two men-names Unknown-to be aD-
pretended before their fiendish plot S
consummated? Where is the Sherlock
Holmes capable of meeting this immi-
nent crisis? Before prohibition laid
its devasting hand upon the fair state
of Georgia, it was an easy task. Then
it would only have been necessary 20
locate two men with but one flask
But now it is different. The jug trade
has come in and the trail is confus-
ed
The canning of 100000 weeyils il
Illustrates the desperate cunning Of
these wicked men, Their supply far
exceeds all requirements Govern
ment experts say that the boil weevil
passes from infancy to the adult stage
in fourteen days and that a healthy
pair will lay enough eggs in a sin
sic season to reproduce 1874, 100000 in
dividuals.
In the happy days of the Tweed re-
gime, so the old story goes, it was
proposed to buy eighteen gondolas
for Central park. A patriotic council
man, averse to diverting the public
funds into unproductive channels, pro-
tested why not buy two he argued,
"a male and a female, and let nature
take her cOurse?" Thus it would seem
with the boil weevils. A half dozen
pair for each cotton growing state
would be enough.
There are some things too dreadful
u be believed, however, and it may
be that the great cotton conspiracy
will yet be found to come within this
category. Possibly this is a bear
story from Wall street Or it may
be some enterprising correspondent
fleeing from the bloody field of Juarez,
has struck Georgia on his way If so,
it explains much. Early habits are
hard to overcome.

BLOOD DISEASES
CONTAGIOUS TROUBLES

Contagious Blood Poison more
thoroughly perneates the system than
any other disease. Its infectious virus
contaminates every corpuscle and
tissue of the circulation, and for this
reason its symptoms are of a varied

and throat begin to ulcerate, the skin

so because it thoroughly purifes the
