A CHARMING WOMAN

is one who is lovely in face, form, mind
and temper. But it's hard for woman
to, be charming without health. A
weak, sickly woman will be nervous
and irritable. Constipation and kidney
poisons show in pimples, blotches. skin
eruptions and wretched complexion.
But Electric Bitters always prove a
godsend to women who want health,
beauty and friends. They regulate
Stomach, Liver and Kidneys, purify
the blood; give strong nerves. bright
eyes, pure breath. smooth. velvety
skin. lovely complexion and perfect
health. Try them. soc at w. A. Samn.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

Miss Maud McCollum, daughter OF
Rev. and Mrs w. e. McCollum died at
the home of her parents near Kenne-
saw, Wednesday morning about two
O'Clock. She was near 10 years of age.
She had only been sick but about ten
days with pneumonia. Everything that
medical skill and loving hands could
do was done for her recovery.
She was a consistent Christian,
obedient, seeking none of the vanities
of life, well contented with the love of
father, mother, brother and sisters,
and the warm friendship of her asso-
ciates and so she grew into the hearts
of all who knew her, and her passing
away is mourned by the large circle of
those who loved her.
One of the most marked characteris-
tics of Maud was her devotion to her
father and her home. She is survived
by her father, mother, five brothers
and three sisters.
The funeral was held at Kennesaw
Baptist church Thursday at IL O'Clock
and very largely attended.
The pallbearers were Messrs. HON
er, Frank and Henry Film, George and
| Lonnie Brooch and Chester Austin
Flower bearers, Misses Gertrude Lacy,
Sue Film, Gertrude Dewberry. Carrie
Brock, Katie Lewis and Ethel Austin,
who felt it a privilege TO perform that
J last sad office for one they loved.
/ The services at the church were con.
Quoted by Revs. J. ]. Crow and G S
Bond. The floral tributes were numer.
GUS and beautiful.
Among the hymns sung were 1.-THE
Home of The Soul" one of Maud's fav
orite's that she sung just before death
silenced her voice in this world for
ever,
AT the conclusion OF the services
the body was laid to rest in the CITY
Cemetery at Kennesaw. The deepest
sympathy is extended to the bereaved
ones.

Mr. Early came to Marietta from
Water Valley, Mississippi where he
was superintendent of the water and
power plant.
The Water Board selected him after
the most thorough canvass to obtain
the best man possible. He proved to
be, first, a man who understood his
business, with a tireless energy, an
unfiagging industry and a devotion to
the work in hand seldom found in a
man not directly interested in the pro
fits of a business. Early and late he
worked to get the new water into the
homes of the people and to make the
system self-sustaining. which he &C
complished in time so short as to
surprise and please the Water Board
And while he worked he kept out

worked his way up until he became
Superintendent of the water and pow
er system of Water Valley and in that
capacity served under five administra-
tions, fact which shows how he was
regarded there. He is kind, courteous
and obliging, but his first thought, his
one absorbing thought, is supplying the
people OF Marietta with water
ter and properly managing the Depart
ment. His mind is never off that sub
ject for many minutes at time.
Maybe when the electric light sys-
tenn is installed, and electricity is
cheaper, Mr.. Early will be able to give
the Gem City Great White Way and
make the Square look bit like White

one occasion, however, Queen Victoria
had publicly to accept a gift Of quite
as embarrassing a nature. This was
in 1856. when the king of Siam sent a
mission to England. On being present
ed to the queen, who received them
seated on her throne and wearing her
crown. the ENJOYS crawIed from the
doors to her majesty's feet on their

present from the folds Of his robes.
