But, there is a practically perfec.

remedy quickly restores the tone, is
absolutely harmless and decidedly
pleasant to take. Clip this article

him to give you bottle Of Colotone

one dollar if you are pleased with
it. nothing if you are not pleased
with it. for every druggist has been
instructed to refund the price and
ask no questions if his customer is
not thoroughly satisfied.
But you will be delighted with
Colotone for it will make you feel
like a different person. Your eyes

active; your complexion will be
fresh and transparent, reflecting
the purity of your blood; your di-

represented the King and organic

people thus united became the
state Of Georgia.
War was no longer prospective,
it was grim fact. The part Geor-
gia was to play in the struggle
for freedom was indeed not neglI-

that she had to contend with pow

Indians to the West, and Spaniards
to the South. whose friendship
could not be relied upon, but him

Of people whose hearts beat for
liberty and independence. 1t would

every patriotic act heroic deed,
and individual alor evidenced 50
often during the perilous years OF
the Revolution Therefore only
and account of the most conspi-

other colonies to fight for liberty.
The opening years Of the Revolu-
tionary war were years of intellec-
tual ferment and political reac-
ten. Men were beginning to think
for themselves and along new lines
They were breaking away from
the old theological domination Poll
tics and religion were being dis
associated, theocracy was giving
way for democracy.
The Revolution was a result not
50 much of oppression as a new
conception of liberty. The Stamp
Act would have caused no real dis
tress, but it was odious as an ob-
stacle to the progress Of new
ideas. Loyalty for England sud 4
denly changed to love for America
On July 4th, 1775 a provincial
congress was held at Savannah, by
the authority of the people, and
in defiance of the authority Of the
King. While the congress was IN
