SYRUP Of figs FOR
4 CH|LO'S BOWELS
1t is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the "dose" mother insisted
On-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form OF
physfc simply don't realize what they
do. The childrens revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little "insides" are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli.
ciOus California Syrup of Figs" It's
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
Of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row.

has full directions for babies, children
Of all ages and for grown-ups plainly

THE mock prosperity that rested on
the insecure foundation Of inflated real

The trust and mortgage companies,
the large implement concerns and the
wholesale merchants all tell the same

GUARD ON FAIR GROUNDS
Arrangement Made Six Years Ago
With the War Department
Officials. =
IMPROVEMENTS BEING PLANNED

(From a Staff correspondent)
Lincoln, June 22.-(Special, y
There has been some criticism Of the
State Board of Agriculture for per-
hitting the National Guard to mob
ilize on the state fair grounds.
Speaking Of the matter this after
noon, Secretary Mellor said that an
agreement had eben entered into BY
the state board with the War depart
ment in July, 1910, in which the
grounds could be used for mobiliza-
ton purposes. This action has never
been reconsidered.
The state board has taken action re-
garding tn cold shacks on the west
side of Main street which have been
an eyesore for so long. which will be
received with much satisfaction by
state fair visitors.
These old buildings are to be torn
down the entire length of the street
and In place Of them large building
erected to be divided into sections for
use of concessions. This will help
the appearance of the street and at
the same time give the people better
places to eat.

The Instalment Plan.

The plan of buying on instalments
is one of the most remarkable phases
of modern life, and the hold that 1t
has on the American people also
seems most remarkable until one gets
right down to the situation and dis
covers that nature has used the idea
since the year one, probably earlier.
Buying and selling on nstalments
has distributed millions of books over
the land, furnished millions of houses.
clothed millions of backs, filled mil
lions OF purses and emptiad other mil
lions. and it will be generally admit
ed that this commercial device is the
poor mans friend, wherever the in
crease in the price of commodity
purchased is not so great as to be
usurious.
Because in too many Instances, bus
mess houses or individuals, preying
upon the necessity Of the poor man.
havt sold him goods of an inferior
quality at double their value, and then
with the mortgage claim and delivery
proceedings, and other devices. have
taken both his money and his pur-
chase. the instalment plan has suffer
ed in reputation, but, under leglu-
mate conditions, and thousands OF
business houses rigidly maintain
these conditions. lis principles are
really sound and an economic neees'
sity.
Buying on instalments has its mer-
its as habit forming force. The in
diyidual who gives dollar week. or
50 cents, say, for an article of useful
ness sold by reliable firm paying per-
hans ten ner cent more than its cash
prlce. usually owns this article at the
expiration of stated time, under the
necessity OF paying for it by regular
deposits. whereas, the money invest
ed would have been wasted. had the
deal not been scaled That is the SO

Judge publish his intention TO become
candidate, and state his platform.
There is a fixed sentiment among
the people that a presiding judge
should not be candidate for another
Office without first relinquishing his
iudgeship.
That sentiment is so strong that a
bill is pending in congress at this
time and one or more similar bills in
the Legislature of Georgia by which
it is sought to prohibit an incumbent
Judge from seeking another known
judicial office during the term for
which he was commissioned, or even
within certain time after the expira-
ton Of his term. 49,
This principle and its fitness has
been recognized by number Of pub
lie officers recently, Justice Hughes
having resigned to accept the Repub-
lican nomination for president, and
in Georgia, Judge II. B. Russell hav-
ing rtsigned from the Court of APP
peaIs to become a candidate for con-
gress, and it is equally well known
that Judge w. c. Landlord now can
didate for congress in this district re-
signed the judgeship of the City Court
of Douglas before becoming a candi-
date, and that two of the present
candidates, Messrs. Pot
tit of the Ocmulgee circuit and Dorsey
Of the Atlanta circuit resigned their
offices before becoming candidates.
The present Judge of the South
ern circuit does not see the fitness or
the force of this principle. BIT is ac-
lively engaged in using the salary
paid him as judge by the voters of
Georgia in canvasing for their votes,
and in soliciting the political favors
in the approaching election of those
upon many of whose rights, the dis
position of whose prope'y and even
the liberties both of themf Gives and nt
those whom they hold Gear, he has
passed or may be cali upon to pass.
To state the facts IS TO show with
out argument, that such 2 thing ougat
not to be possible.
1t can mean but one thing, that the
candidate intends to procure a more
desirable office if it can be had, but
il otherwise then to retain the one
he has with its power, patronage and
pay
We are merely pointing out these
statements in order that the voters OF
this district might have ample oppor-
tunity to keep the record straight!
