Kidney Pills always give me prompt
relief and I can cheerfuily recon-
mend Them
The reason Foley kidney Pills act
SO satisfactorily is because they, neu-
tralizo and dissolve the poisonous
waste matter that remains in the
blood because the kidneys do not
DO their work properly in altering
and casting out from the system uric
acid and other poisons. q
Relief usually follows in a few
days and such symptoms as pain In
the sides or back, stiff joints, sore
muscles, rheumatism, too frequent
action of the bladder at night, and
other painful and annoying ailments
disappear; Foley Kidney Pills con-
tain no harmful ingredients. They
are safe as well as quick acting.

MERCER TAKES THE
BASE BALL SERIES
FROM \ j B j R n

Mercer was crowned with victory
over the Auburn Plainsmen in the Sc
ries of three games which were play
ed in this city on Wednesday and
Thursday. The last game went to the
Macon Baptists by a score of Z and 4.
1t was no small matter for ball
team to whip such a husky bunch as
those who hail from Alabama. Dona
hues team has cut path through the
Southern baseball college circles of
1916, with only one other defeat than
those administered by Mercer, and that
vas to Georgia Tech. Mercer now rele-
gates them with three defeats, and
two of the scalps to her own liking.
The last game was the best of the Sc
ries. Both teams had cooled down 10
the hard task, and had become more
accustomed to the field Mercer won
the series in fair baseball, and won
TIE last game in a pretty exhibition.
The feature of the game was easily
the pitching and hitting of Ashby Fuss,
tie young Mercer co1legian who has
made quite reputation in his first
J year out. Three hits in four trips to
tie plate is not bad for a pitcher, and
that is what Fuss did.
Auburn bungled her fielding and as
al. example, four runs were scored in
the first inning of the last game with
out a hit
We must pay our respects to the
magnificent umpiring of Glenn Colby.
At all times he was master of the
game and enjoyed the utmost respect
of the players Kicks were rare, and
always he was admitted to have played
fair.
Both teams were represented with a
nice bunch of ball players who con-
ducted themselves as good sports on
and off the diamond.
Our hats are off to Mercer, and our
consolation to Auburn.
The game in figures went this way:

LOSS IN EXPORTS Of
COTTON FROM SOUTH

ATLANTA, Ga, April 2S.-Atlanta
cotton men say that the census bureau
reports have recently developed the
interesting fact that during the months
Of December 1915, and January and
February, 1916, Southern cotton was
exported to the amount of only 1901.
725 bales.
1t will be remembered that the Brit
ish orders in council, stopping ship
ments of cotton to Germany, Austria
ard northern Europe, went into effect
in March, 1915. During the months Of
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1916-04-28

December, 1914, and January and Feb
r'iary, 1915, the exports of cotton were
4,O75,0OO bales. These three months
are the most important months for COT
ton shipments.
The census bureau report, accord
ing to local cotton men, also shows
that during the year ending July LIST,
1914, the United Kingdom of Great
Britain took 3,563,216 bales of cotton;
Germany took 2,35O,761 bales; Bel
GUM took 214,245; France 1,O14,S34.
AS two-thirds of the French cotton
mills in that part of France are now in
German possession, and as Belgium is
in German possession, the mills en-
tirely cut off from the use of South
