W BIS FINE Bill
MS SBHMMRO
ROME, Ga., January 22. (Special.)
—Thomas Beard says he paid what he
thought was his fine as a sentence fop
a crime with which he was charged
and now finds that the clerk of the
superior court, D. W. Simmons, took
’ tha money thinking he had been fined
and divided it —the sum was two
hundred dollars—between himself (the
cler) and the then sheriff, W. G. Dune
hoo, and the then solicitor general,
i W. H. Ennis, and, come to find out,
Beard had never been sentenced nor
fined iiQr his bond forfeited nor had
he been relieved of prosecution for
the alleged crime. He was just out
j two hundred dollars and he is now
in the county jail awaiting trial or
sentence or acquittal or something or
other that will either make him go
free or pay a penalty for the crime
if he committed, it.
4 This all happened, so far as the pay
ment of the money was concerned,
[, Mr. Beard alleges in his petition, on
’ January 27, 1914. He declares that
4 he want-s his money back and interest
5i on it. since that date because Mr. Sim-
A mons had no legal right to take the
money nor to disburse it nor to divide
it between himself and the then
sheriff and the then solicitor general.
Beard says he was indicted for burg
\ lary at the July term, 1913, and gave
bond in the sum of two hundred dol
u lars for his appearance at the next
I- term of court. When he paid Mr.
b Simmions two hundred dollars on
January 27, 1914, the latter entered it
in his cash book.
Judge Moses Wright has ordered
the three ex-officials to appear before
4 him at ten o’clock on January 26th,
■ to show cause why the money should
not be refunded to Mr. Beard.

“Very Good Eddie.”
“Very Good Eddie’’, which ran for
over a year at the Princess Theatre,
New York, and which left the metropo
lis with the reputation of being the
smartest success of the past theatrical
twelve month, will be the attraction
at the Opera House Monday, January
i 28 th -
It is said that the theatre-goers of,
Americus will be delighted by the ■
charm of the young ladles of “Very
Good Eddie" and that certainly means
that the girls of the company possess
more than ordinary beauty.
The costumes of this swagger fash
ion chorus will be the very latest
creations of the naodist's art, many
of them coming from Paris, while oth
ers were designed under the super
vision of Mr. Melville Ellis. Among ,
the musical numbers that have become
t famous are “ Some Sort of Somebody,"
i ■ Old Boy Neutral,” Babes in the
l Woods,” “Wedding Bells Are Calling
i Me," ‘‘lf I Find The Girl,’ and many
l others, in fact the music is as popular'
l as Floradora which is saying a great
1 deal.
1 This now famous muscal farce is
, written by Philip Barhtolomae, author
of “Over Night," “When Dreams Come
* True,” etc., aid -Jerome Kern, who is
responsible for the bright and tune
-1 ful score. The piece has been staged
l by J. C. Huffman, with dances super
i vised by Jack Mason. The play is in
1 two acts and three scenes are required
1 in the telling of the story, the first
J on the deck of a Hudson river boat
and the second at the Rip Van Winkle
i Inn. representing evening and morn
ing.

! KEPT HER AWAKE
The Terrible Pane h Back
Sides. Cardei Gave Relief.
I Marksville, La.—Mrs. Alice Johnsen,
of this place, writes: “For one year I
suffered with an awful misery in my back
( and sides. My left side was hurting me
all the time. The misery was something
. awftil.
, 1 could not do anything, not even sleep
i at night. It kept me awake most of the I
night... I took different medicines, but'
nothing did me any good or relieved me
’ until I took Cardui...
1 was not able to do any of my work
tor one year and I got worse all the time,
was confined to my bed off and on. I got
so bad with my back that when I stooped
down I was not able to straighten up
again ... 1 decided 1 would try Cardui
r ... By time I had taken the entire bottle ■
i I was feeling pretty good and could
■ straighten up and my pains were nearly
. all gone.
t I shall always praise Cardui. I con-
■ tinued taking it until I was strong and
well.” If you suffer from pains due to
female complaints, Cardui may be just
, what you need. Thousands of women
who once suffered in this way now praise
’ Cardui for their present grad health.
Give it a trial. NC-133

How to keep»the richness in and
expense out of baking has been a
problem- Housekeepers every day
are solving this problem with whole
some Cottolene.
Home-made cakes are coming
into fashion again. And the very
latest fashion in delicious cakes is
to use economical Cottolene instead
of expensive butter —one-third iess t '
too, than of butter.

ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 22.—Every
traveling man in Georgia not already
enrolled in the War Savings Stamp
! campaign is requested to send his
i name t o Hugh Richardson of this city,
l dire tor of the campaign for Georgia,
i who is busily engaged, among his
many other duties, in recognizing the
"Knights of the Grip" in a great volun
teer army that will spread the gos
| pel of thrift and service to the farthest
I corners of the s'ate.
Thousands of Georgia traveling men
already have enrolled in the campaign,
but it is desired to secure a member
ship of ten thousand by February 1,
and for this reason everyone whose
name is not on the list is requested
tc get in touch with Mr. Richardson
ai once.
For the purpose o£ the War Savings
Stamp campaign, and other movements
in which the traveling men will do
their bit to win the war, .the Georgia
Traveling Men’s Association for Na
tional Service has been formed with
prominent traveling men in general
charge as executive committee. This
form of organization will be con
tinued until Washington’s birthday on
February 22, when a permanent or
ganization will be formed and officers
wH) be elected.
Every traveling man enrolled in the
movement for War Savings Stamps
will carry a stamp book in his pocket,
showing that he practices what he
preaches by investing his surplus
I quarters in the little stamps which are
the same, in their modest way, as
liberty Bonds.

TO CONSUMPTION
Stop It At Once by Takfur Cheney’s
Expeetorant
You may be in bed from coughing
and can hardly sleep and even have
old time consumption, have hemor
rhages, and be thin and underweight,
you may have very weak lungs and
breathing may be painful and coughing
incessant. If so, get a 25c bottle of
Cheney’s Expectorant and take as di
rected on bottle. It will quickly
soothe the lining of your throat, and
make you feel easy and stop that hack
ing cough and cold, and even cure the
first symptoms of consumption. Try
Cheney’s Expectorant for asthma.—
