You Money if You are Not Satisfied with
The Medicine we Recommend.

We are so positive that our remedy will
permanently relieve constipation, No mat
ter how chronic it may be, that we offer to
to furnish the medicine at our expense
should it fail to produce satisfactory re-
suits.
1t ic worse than useless to attempt TO
cnre constipation with cathartic drugs.
LaXatives or catharticS do much harm.
They cause a reaction, irritate, and weak
ell the bowels and tend to make cOnstipa-
tion more chronic. Besides, their use be-
comes habit that Is dangerous.
Constipation is caused by weakness OF
the nerves and muscles Of the large intes-
tine or descending colon. To expect per-
manent relief you must therefore tone up
and strengthen these organs and restore
them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies on
our recommendation. They are exceed
ingly, pleasant to take, being eaten like
candy, and are ideal for children, delicate
persons, and old folks, as well as for the
robust They act directly on the bowels.
They apparently have neutral action on
other associate organs or glands. Ihey
do not purge, cause excessive looSeneSS,
nor create any Inconvenience whatever.
They may be taken at any time, day or
night. They will positively relieve chron-
ic or habitual constipation, II not OF sur
gical variety, and the myriads OF associate
or dependent chronic ailments, II taken
with regularity for reasonable length OF
time. II tablets, 10 cents; So tablets, 25

MADE FORTUNE BY MIND
ING BUSINESS.
That is His Own Business-Half
of it Made by Letting Other
Peoples Alone.
Elberton Star.

Mr.. Hugh Wilson, nearly eighty years OF
age and for fifty years editor OF the Abbe-
vile Press and Banner, has some pro-
nOunced opinion on most any subject,
That his opinion, in reference to the con-
duct of his own business, is good. has been
amply verified by the success he has
achieved, being one Of the few country
editors who ever made an independent
fortune out of newspaper work. Mr: Will
son still writes great deal for the Press
and Banner, out Of pure love for the work.
In recent issue he has the following to
say in reference to the cotton pledges now
being asked Of the farmers: 49,,
In various sections of the State politi-
clans and newspapers are now advising
farmers as to how they shall conduct their
ownbuSineSS next season. How any sane
farmer can consent to the lettir g OF edi-
tors, merchants, bankers, and other men
who know nothing of farming, control or
direct their own personal business is be-
yond our comprehension. AS we'll have
convention of farmers to instruct bankers,
merchants and editors how to conduct
business along their respective lines OF
pursuit.
liza farmer does not know enough to
conduct his own business, wouldn't 1t be
we'll enough for him to quit the field, come
to town and start bank. store or
newspaper, just to show incompetents
how to do it? :.
If a-farmer should come to town and
tell bank, merchant, or q newspaper
how to run the details Of their respective
lines of pursuit, what do you think the
farmer would be told? Wouldn't some
body tell him to attend to his own busi-
ness. It is said that man in North Caro-
lima once made an immense fortune:
Wnen asked how he made it, we are told
that he said something like this: II
made one-half Of it attending to my own
business. 1t is said that man in North
Carolina once made an immense fortune.
When asked how he made it, we are told
that he said something like this: Il made
one-half Of it attending. to my own busi-
ness. The other half made letting 9TH
or peoples business alone"
II it Is not downright impudence for one
man to tell another how he must work or
plant, what Is it?
If man tells you that he, or you, can
control the price Of cotton next fall, DO
you believe himP The most ignorant AZ
rican negro on Savannah river, we believe,
knows as much about the price OF cotton
next fall as the wisest banker, the best
merchant, the ablest editor, or the biggest
blatherskite politician on the face OF the
earth.

GOOD WORK FIRE DEPARTMENT.

Last Wednesday night an alarm was
sent in to the Fire Department that
Mrs. L. w. Whites house was on fire.
The new department responded
promptly but 1t turned out to be only
few barrels which were set on fire
to give the department some practice
but none of the men knew of the pre-
arranged plan. Water was thrown in
/ minute and fifty seconds. In the
practice on the Square Friday after
noon, 1t required only one minute and
one second to throw water which was
quite an improvement over the form
er record. If the weather is favorable
another practice will be given Friday
afternoon at o'clock.

the amount be collected at the same

is satisfactory. We recommend that
electric lights be put in the Jail.

the end Of the next fiscal year we e1-
pect to be free from debt.
We recommend the Supervisor
