LOOK AT A CHILD'S
TONGUE WHEN CROSS
FEVERISH AND SICK
Take No Chances! Move POisons
From Liver and Bowels at
Once.

Mothers can rest easy after giving
California Syrup of Figs" because in
few hours all the clogged-up waste,
sour bile and fermenting food gently
moves out of the bowels, and you
have a we'll, playful child again.
Children simply will not take the
time from play to empty their bow
els, and they become tightly packed,
liver gets sluggish and stomach dis
ordered.
When cross, feverish, restless, see
if tongue is coated, then give this de-
licious "fruit laxative" Children love
it, and it can not cause injury. No
difference what ails your little one
if full of cold, or sore throat, diar-
rhoea, stomach-ache, bad breath, re-
member, a gentle "inside cleansing"
should always be the first treatment
given. Full directions for babies,
children Of all ages ard grown-ups
are printed on each bottle.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask your druggist for 5O-cent bottle
of California Syrup of Figs" then
look carefully and see that it is made
by the California Fig Syrup Com
pany." We make no smaller size.
Hand back with contempt any other
fig syrup.

TANLAC HAS BEEN WORTH
$500 TO HIM, He SAYS
Richardson Declares "TwO
Years Have Passed Since
Tanlac Restored My
Health.
ONCE LIVED ON MILK
Removed by Tanlac, He Says, "Tve
Had No Return of Amy of My
Old Troubles"

A few days ago, Frank Richardson,
well known employe of the Byrd
Printing Company residing at So
West Lake St., Atlanta, came into
Jacobs Pharmacy and in relating his
experiences with Tanlac said:
About eighteen months ago, while
lived in Knoxville, Tenn, made the
statement that I wouldn't take $500
for the good Tanlac did me. Well,
just want to tell you I still feel the
same way about it. I suffered with
the most terrible case of stomach
trouble, which had followed me for
seven long years and pulled me down
almost to the point of despair. Tan
lac gave me relief when everything
else had failed and I can never forget
it.
MY diet was restricted to milk and
occasionally soft boiled egg, and
wouldn't dare touch meats of any
kind. 1 was habitually constipated
and extremely nervous. No matter
what L would eat, I would always
have an awful pain in my stomach
and this, with my stomach. kept me
awake for hours every night. My
condition alarmed my wife and 1 was
almost at the turn of the road where
hadn't strength to follow my voca-
ton.
Il read about Tanlac helping so
many people who were afflicted as
was, and / determined to try it.
started to the drug store one evening
Tor my first bottle, and I was so weak
from loss of strength and energy that
l tainted. I managed to get back
home after so long and started on nv
Ianlac, and the first few doses made
me feel better. I continued improv-
ing, and, after taking the fourth bot
Tie, there was a most wonderful
change in my condition. l found that

and, for the first time in wears.
could eat boiled ham and potatoes and
felt no i'll after-effects. The pains
all left my stomach, my nervousness
disappeared and I could sleep like a
child. My troubles all went away
with those few bottles of Tanlac and
left me stronger and more energetic
than 1 had been in years. Yes, sir.

LOCKHART JUNCTION

Dockhart Junction, Oct. 3.-We
are having cool spell of weather
on us at this time. Fire and heavy
clothing are acceptable. There hasn't
been any frost yet that | know of,
but it seems as if it is not far away.
| We see nothing to prevent the
farmer from gathering his short crop.
10 be sure, it is very short one,
as it will prove in the wind up, at the
end of gathering time. Cotton has
gone up in price. 1 hear today it is
16k cents and l look for the next
report to still bring better prices.
This writer is in hopes that cotton
will reach its highest before it leaves
the farmers hand and goes to the
speculator, for there is many a poor
farmer that won't make over two
bales to the mule or plow and he is
the man that should be benefited.
1t was in the Adamsburg section
last week and attended preaching at
Wesley's Chapel. heard a fine SER
mon by Rev. Mr.. Brown of Monarch.
Rev. Mr.. Copeland was carrying on
protracted meeting at that place.
stopped at the hospitable home of
Mrs. Gist Farr and sons, where I
took dinner and enjoyed being in their
home.
Mr.. Marvin Farr has the finest
Irish potato patch that 1 have seen
this year, of the Lookout variety. he
calls them. The vines are very large
and full of blooms. Looks like spring

Will make a good yield, from the looks

There has been a great deal of
molasses made up in this section, as
the cane crop is best crop that has
been made. 1t was fine wherever il
was planted.
Nettie Brandon, an old colored wo-
man, died last Thursday night. the
18th inst. She died with dropsy. She
was 76 years old. Her husband. AL
tbert Brandon, who is living, is S6
years old. "Aunt Nettie," as every
one called her, belonged to Mr.. Ed
Meng in slavery time. She lived with
MIR. Meng, in Pinkney township, near
Browns Creek. She told me he
taught her how to drop corn, and he
was good master to her. This good
old darkey and her husband has been
living on this writer's place three
years. She has been our cook. She
had many good white friends that
thought a great deal of her. She
was one that had good manners and
was obedient to her white friends, for
she was reared right. There are not
many of these kind now. They are
nearly all dead, and it is a pity that
the younger ones couldn't follow the
example of the older ones. This old
darkey knew her maker and was
ready when he called her. She leaves
her husband and many children to
mourn their loss.
