It's the Way It's Run.

The way man conducts his business
shows how much he knows about it.
Drop in at the restaurant facing John
ton square, on Congress street; take a
meal, or send in a special order, and
then judge if the proprietor knows what
he is doing. Where in the country will
you find such a smooth running estab-
lishment; where can you be as well and
as perfectly served as at Hicks. The Sc
cret of it all is that Hicks knows how.
Years of experience count; and with
everything at hand to make the finest
restaurant in the south, Hicks finds it an
easy task. Don't be behind time this sum
mer in securing accommodations at
Hicks. Though he has made special prep
aration for handling a big business, yet
he may be as crowded as last summer
You can't keep a good thing away from
the people, and that's why Hicks is al
ways busy. The United States recognizes
the excellence of Hicks, and the court
officers and jury patrOnize him at every
session of the court.-ad.
