THE REASON FEWER
PEOPLE TAKE "SALTS'

We find the use of salts and other
harsh physics is becoming less every
year because more and more people
are using Rexall OrderIies, which we
and they firmly believe to be the best
bowel remedy ever made. They taste
so much like candy that even the
children like them. At the same time
they act so easily and naturally that
there is no purging, gripping or pain.
They promptly remove the constipa-
ton, and, by soothing and strength
ening the bowels, make it less liable
to occur again. We know what they
are made of and the pleasant and
beneficial results that follow their
use.
You needn't take our word for it.
If Rexall Orderlies don't help you
if they don't entirely relieve all of
your bowel Troublesome back and
tell US and we'll give back your mon
ey. In vest pocket tin boxes; loo,

You can buy Rexall Orderlies on
ly at the Rexall Stores, and in this
town only of us. HORSLEY DRUG

A MURDER IN DOUGHERTY COUNTY
Most Prominent Negro Farmer of the
County Found With Throat Cut.

County Found With Throat Cut.
Alex Billingslea, the most promi-
nent negro farmer in Dougherty
county and large property holder,
was found with his throat cut from
ear to ear and many stabs in his body
in the woods about two miles from
his home Wednesday.
His horse came home with the
buggy. The rear curtain had been
torn off and the buggy was covered
with blood. The search for the body
was not successful until late next
morning. 1t is thought the assassin
got up on the buggy from behind,
stabbed Billingslea in the back
through the curtain and then cut his
throat on both sides. There is no
clue to the assassin.
Jealousy about a woman is be-
lieved to have been the motive, but
the dead mans body was robbed of
everything of value he had on him at
the time.
