]. Il. Richard Returns.

j. X. Richard, more famtliarlJ
known to the residents Of this city
as RENT Richard, eturned to this
city Monday night direct from Fitz
gerald, Georgia. Mr.. Richard owns
a farm of eighty acres about three
miles northeast of this city and his
visit here is for the purpose of look
ing after it. ..*..
Speaking of the old soldiers colony
and the country in general around 1t,
Mr.. Richard does not report much
more favoIably than did Mr.. Porter
who left there last June. Mr.. Richard
and Chas. Wiser started u brick yard
down there, but sold out shortly
afterwards.
He says that Georgia is no place
for a laburing man to 60 to with the
expectations of lettering his condi-
lions 10y day labor. One dollar per
day is the highest wages paid. and
that figure as compared with the
cost Of living is small. He cited an
instance of a young man working
one week for that amount OF wages,
and when he settled up with the
firm and deducted his living expenses
a balance of four cents was due him.
Mr.. Richard says he has just re-
covered from Il severe attack OF ague,
contracted in the swamps there, but
SAYS the uplands are healthy enough.
He has been making brick, under a
contract, for a. firm at Abbyville,
and did fairly well. He expects to
return to GeOl gia, but does not al
wise anyone to go there unless he
wishes to take Il piece OF land and
cultivate it. The weather there is
now mild, and he says he found II"
cold weather until he reached tho
northern part OF Kentucky and ILL
nois, and he felt the cold there more
than he ever did in Minnesota, by
reason of the dampness Of the at
mOsphere.
He says that Ed Mahan mas not
reached Georgia yet, and the last
heard from him he was in Kentucky.
Mr.. Mahan took with him a carload
of goods, which, he understood,
Mahan had disposed of on the road,
and was trading in different lines on
his route.
Martin Scott and family are at
Fitzgerald. Mr.. Scott is highly
pleased with the country, but his
family are not quite so enthusiastic
over the change as he is.
Mr.. Richard and Chas Wiser, in
the dra wing. got twenty acres of
land each, located about six miles
from Fitzgerald, and they have men
at work putting theirfarms III shape
for cultivation.

A tired stomach Is very much like
a sprained ankle. If you suffer from
any Of the symptoms of dyspepsia,
your stomach is tired. 1t needs a
crutch, We must relieve it of all
work for time, or until 1t is restored
to it's natural strength. TO do this
successfully, we must use u food
which is already digested outside OF
the body. and which will aid the
digestion of other foods that may be
taken with it. Such aproduct is the
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
The Shakers have utilized the
digestive principles present in plants
for the manufacture of this article,
and it's success has been truly phe-
nomenal. You can try it for the
nominal sum Of 10 cents, as sample
bottles are sold by all druggists at
this price.

New n. +. Time lard.

The new time card of the Northern
Pacific railroad went into effect
Sunday. and some very undesir-
able changes are made in the train
service from this point.
Passenger train No. !, west bound,
which has beer scheduled here at 6:23
p. m. has been changed to 10:48 p. m.
This will make quite difference to
the hotels, for nearly all passengers
coming off that train take supper
here. Then persons who always rode
on No. l, because it arrived early in
the evening, are disappointed. They
say that it virtually Goes away with
that tain, for the next one from st.
Paul is only about an hour later.
No. 5, west bound, arrives an
hour earlier than at present, which
bring it here at 1926. This makes it
inconvenient for the depot force, and
also detrimental to the hotels, as
many people CARRYING will have eaten
their dinner, and in many cases those
departing will have tOleaYe without
it.
The other trains were about the
same as under the present time card.
The branch train leaves at S:45
a. M. fifteen minutes later than
before, and arrives from Morris
at ITO, not in time for west bound
passengers tocatch No. 5 to- Brainerd
and other points.
