HOT ENOUGH CHILDREN
ever receive the proper balance of food
to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
nature's demands are greater than In
mature life. This is shown in so many
pale facet, lean bodies, frequent colds,
nd lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
i nmistakable earnestness: They nerd
.' icott's Emulsion, and need it now. It
os: esses in concentrated form the very
jod elements to enrich their bluod. It
ihanges weakness to strcuifth; it makes
them stardy and strong. No alcohol.

Seeding Time a Reminder.
Seeding time reminds us that "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
and if a man sows extravagance he shall reap embarrassment and dependence.
The man who sows economy and saves a part of his earnings will reap comfort and in
dependence in old age. Our system and efforts have enabled hundreds of people of
Fulton County to provide for the future.

J. S. ALEXANDER,

Nothing adds more to the refinements of home than
good music. To have good music you must have a gcod
instrument. There are good bad and indifferent instru
ments, and. to the unskilled . eye they look much alike
The unprincipled dealer is likely to make you pay
first-class price for a fourth-class instrument. I have
lived in this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and
in a position to make good any business transactions.
Buy your piano, organ, or victrola from me and if it 's
not all right you can come back at me.
There are families in every part of this county that
have purchased instruments from me. Ask them about
me.
Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano,
or Player Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See
me. Let's talk it over.
L. W. FUNK.
