Stomach Bitters, renders the nerves
tranquil and strong, promotes digestion,

cause of nervous debility is removed by
the Bitters, which impart healthy tone

property by Georgia negroes. Among
other things he states that In Georgia
in 1880 the negroes returned s5,764 z93
worth Of property for taxation. This
year the amount Of property they re-
turned was 1891 ,230. In 1893 they re-
turned property to the amount OF about
$4,000, 900. The falling of between 1893

But 1t was not necessary for him to

when half dozen rough-clad miners

is hard to find man who does much
riding without pair attached to his
pedals. They are very useful when
obliged to pedal fast. especially SO these
days. when there are no brakes or
coasters on the wheels and the rider ia
obliged to keep his feet on the pedals
while going down hill. At such times
should he slip his pedal bad fall would
most likely result. Care should be
taken, however, to have the foot SO
fastened as to be able to withdraw it at
