FROM THE LOW
 FEVER COUNTRY
Cheering Message From South GeOr- gia to People Subject to Fev- CTS and Other Ills. Try Black. Draught Liver
 Medicine.

Ocilla, Ga.-Mr. J. H. McNeill, a resident of this place, says: 'I and my family have been users of Thed- ford's Biack-Draught for years and never yet found it's equal for liver and stomach troubles. It it without doubt the best medicine for head ache, indigestion and suchh ills or the market. I firmly believe if a family would use it regularly they would never have any fever, as it keeps the liver active and is so easy to take. We have never had any fever in our family since we began it's use, although we live in low coun- try in southern Georgia.
 l use it in broken doses for indi- gestion. gas or sour stomach, put for colds I use full dose"
 When you feel bad all over. stom- ach not right, bad taste in youi mouth, head aches, bilious. etc., Il that old, reliable vegetable liver me dicine you have heard so much about -Thedford's Black-Draught.
 Ycu have read over and over again the statements from users who found it of great relief to them in theil suffering. Try Black-Draught fo. yourself. Why should it not bring you relief, too?

 PAYING MORTGAGES

Kansas City. Mo-, Dec. 10.-"Kansas farmers are paying off their mort gages as they never did before" said D. F. Swinney, Kansas City banker today. Kansas used to be one of the heaviest mortgaged states in the union but if the people keep on as they have been during the past year or two, there will be less mortgaged property in Kansas than in any other state.
 "This tendency is due to good crops I believe, and is all the more remark. able considering the amounts being invested in Liberty Bonds, and con tributed to various forms of war re. Iief''

believe that one Of the reasons why the scandinavian people
of this country have become true Americans is that they
brought the Bible and the hymn book with them; They feared
God and no one else. They commenced their services prais-
ing the Almighty God, the Father Of us all, and listened to
the teachings of the Master in humble homes; but as soon
as possible they erected church for divine worship. And
they not only erected churches, but schools and colleges, that
their children might attend and learn the ways OF true Amer
icanism and have that advantage which would make them
equally successful with other peoples of the world"

And why should not the farmer get $3.50 or even $500 per
bushel for next seasons crop of wheat when the fact is taken into
header or %sef-binder for $3.50. The price now is 1926. Two years
ago 14inch gang plows could be bought for $55. Now they cost
Sl20. The wagon that formerly sold for sos now costs $125. And
little regulating of the price of things which the farmer must buy
as well as those which he has to sell would appear to to be but
simple justice on the part of those in governmental control.

WHY WE ARE FIGHTING.

If you don't know why we are fighting
Let the seas out there explain. "
There's a place in the Atlantic
That will never lose it's stain;
And a liner on the bottom
With a great hole in it's gut
Where the eels are mounting babies bones.
And the nameless horrors glut.
If you don't know why we are fighting
France will point you to the west,
Where the bayonets of Germany
Are hacking at her breast;
Where a thousand lovely villages
Are marked with blood and flame,
And the gentlest of her ~lassies,
Soied and broken, walk in shame.
If you don't know why we are fighting
Belgium has a tale to tell,
How the Kaiser's 'cultured' legions
Came to do the work of hell.
Let her hordes of homeless starvelings,
Let maltreated children show;
Look upon her desolation,
Ask her women-and you'll know.
