AN EASY WAY TO
REDUCE FLESH
Drink Hot Water and Take Tassco

Haven't you often wished for a
to reduce your fish? Some
thing that does not require dieting or
calisthenics? Well, right here you
have it in 5-grain tassco tablets, which
you may secure at the National Drug
Co. They are pleasant to take, per-
fectly harmless and cause no restrict
ions of habit or eating, and reduce
the flesh. little by little, until you are
down to the number of pounds you
wish to weigh. Too much flesh is un-
desirable, as most quite stout people
will readily admit, and it detracts
from ones good appearance; makes
one clumsy and short of breath.
There isn't any reason why anyone
should be too stout, when there's this
much-tricd, perfectly satisfactory
remedy at the National Drug Co.
Tassco tablets don't forget the Hame)
are recommended by physicians and
are guaranteed to be perfectly harm
less. Refuse substitutes, if you can
not come to our store, we will mail
tassee TO you.

UNUSUAL OPPORTUNITY TO
BUY WESTERN BEEF CAT
TIE FOR GEORGIA
FARMERS

The A. P. & A., working in coop
Grafton with Government authorities
at Washington, is in touch with farm
ers in that part of Texas affected by
the drouth, who own large numbers
Of fine type OF beef cattle, including
Herefords, Short Horns and Angus,
which must be sold at sacrifice.
These cattle are perhaps thin, but
otherwise in good condition, and can
be purchased at from $4,000 to So
90 per head; the average price will
probably be around $500 per head.
The misfortune of the Texas stock
men offers splendid opportunity for
Georgia farmers to replace the piney-
woods cattle with the finest type of
beef cattle at a price that anyone can
afford to pay.
The A. B. & A. is arranging to send
ere of both OF it's Agricultural Field
Agents, Nessrs w. r. Tucker, Of
Fitzgerald, and L. G. Proctor, of Tai
ladeQa, Ala. to Texas, to assist Geor-
gia farmers in purchasing some Of
these cattle. Anyone interested should
make his plans to accompany these
men. If there are others who may
not be able to go and will place their
orders with us within the next two
weeks. and arrange through his bank
in payment for purchases made, we
shall be glad to act according to our
best Judgment in filing these orders.
Messrs. Tucker and Proctor are both
experienced men, they having made
several trips to the West, purchasing
registered stock for Georgia breeders,
and can be depended on to use good
judgement and conservatism in filling
any orders which may be placed with
them by Georgia farmers.
The information we have comes
direct from the United States Depart
mcnt of Agriculture in Washington,
which leads us to believe this is the
best opportunity that has ever been
offered for the Georgia farmers to
start in the stock business right.

North or South Carolina or Florida:
however, there are few thousand

BE GETTING IN WOOD
Fuel Administrator for South Caro-

Looked After.

Columbia, Nov. BIB. b. Cos
sett, state fuel administrator. in q
letter to the chairmen of the fuel
committees of the state, is urging
that provision be made for an emer-
gency supply of wood. Sometime
ago the administrator suggested the
formation of municipal companies
to handle the fuel proposition. The
indications are that this will be a
hard winter and the wood should he
cut as soon as possible and made
available for use of the people in the
cities. Administrator Gossett has
sent letter to the chairmen of all
fuel committees of the state. in
which he says:
PLEASE advise me as to what has
peen done in your district towards
providing supply of wood for emer-
gency use this winter. 1 wish to
again impress upon you the import
ance of pushing this matter. Cold
weather cannot be far off, and when
IL comes those communities which
have not taken advantage of the
prevailing mild weather to lay in "A
supply OF wood may pay dearly for
1t. The city of Anderson has estab-
lished a municipal woodward. Green
vile, Rock Hill and other cities are
planning. to do so. ! hope the same
measure is being seriously consid-
cred in yc community"
