THUBSDAY OCTOBER 29, 1914.
ne of the clearest pictures that we
e seen of the heartaches and sorrow
appeared on the cover page of
a popular weekly magazine last week,
teDiog the atory more concisely and
vividly thao any word picture possibly

(HMnble'home. On the floor was a

The People wishes to repeat its
wanting of last week to those farmers
who are allowing their cotton to re-
-• aaain on the ground without any pro-
whatever from the weather.
Numerous cases of rotting have been
reported, with a consequent loss to the
seller. See that the bales are raised a
few inches above the ground and if
possible, provide a covering of some
sort.

The following pretty tribute to tbo
people who live ;in. the country was
written by Joeiah Carter, editor of
the Marietta (Ga.) Journal and pri
vate secretary to Senator Hoke Smith.
Mr. Carter died in Washington a few
weeks ago. •
He said:
"Sometimes I feel uneasy about, our
country. Without great guiding prin
ciples our republic would be a mob.
The big cities are [frivolous, extrava
gant and irreligious. City people are
good, all right, but their power to see
is obscured. They can't see things as
they are seen in the quiet of the coun
try. The salvation of the country, the
preservation of the republic, rests with
the people who live on the farms and
in the smaller cities and towns; who go
to church on Sunday, who believe in
keeping the Isabbath holy, who teach
their children to reverence God, who
love their neigbors, who say their
prayers at night and who pay iri* ad
vance for their county papers.”
Col. HarryJ D. Calhoun struck the
key-note at the Boosters’ meeting last
week when he said that now is the
time to boost, when the outlook seems
dark and gloomy. In good times things
boost themselves. As some one has
truly said, “Good bless the man with
a scheme, an idea. It may be visionary
but in any case it certainly must be
better than resting all the time.”
Governor Blease, in a message to the
General Assembly Monday night, gave
that body some good advice when he
told them "to quit their nonsense in
jockeying for political position and get
down to something that will help the
people.” He also said that he regards
the bond issue as “a huge joke” and
that it would not help those for whom it
was orginally intended.

While preparing dinner a young
Minneapolia wife bad the miafortuna to
acald her hand so badly that over half
the akin came off. She waa alone at the
time and rushed over to her neighbor’s
for help. This neighber promptly ap
plied Allen’s Ulcerine Salve and in ten
days the hand waa completely healed
without a scar.
This salve is one of the oldest reme
dies in America and since 1869 it has
been known as the only salve powerful
enough to cure chronic ulcers and old
sores of long standing. Because it is
so powerful, it will heal burns and scalds
without a scar in a remarkably short
time. , -•
Allen’s Ulcerine Salve heals from the
bottom up and draws out the poisons.
If applied on new cuts and sores it heals
in one-third the time that common salves
take. Sold by C. N. Burkhalter, and
other leading druggists.—adv.

Apply Sloan’s Freely (or Lum

Your attacks of Lumbago are not
newly so hopeless as they seem. You
can relieve them almost instantly by a
simple application of Sloan’s Liniment
on the back and loins. Lumbago is a
form of rheumatism, and yields per
fectly to Sloan’s, which penetrates
quickly all in through the sore and ten
der muscles, limbers up the back and
makes it feel fine. Get a bottle of
Sloan's Liniment for 25 cents of any
druggist and have it in the house—
against colds, sore and swollen joints,
rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica and
like ailments. Your money back if
not satisfied, but it does give almost in
stant relief, adv.
