GET FLESH.
Get Strength, yigor, Clear Complexion and Good Digestion, not by Patent Medicine But in Nature's Own Way.

Get Strength, Yigor, Clear Complexion and
 Good Digestion, not by Patent Medicine,
 Butin Nature's Own Way.
 Any honest physician will tell you that there Is but one way to get in creased flesh; all the patent medicines and cod liver oils to the contrary not Withstanding.
 Nature has but one way to increase flesh, strength and vigor of mind and body, and that is through the stomach by wholesome food we'll digested. There Is no reason or common sense in any other method whatever,
 People are thin, run down, nervous, pale and shaky in their nerves, simply because their stomachs are weak.
 They may not think they have dys- pepsia, but the fact remains that they do not eat enough food or what they eat is not quickly and properly digested as it should be.
 Dr. Harlandson says the reason is because the stomach lacks certain d. gestive acids and peptones, and defi- cient secretion of gastric juice. Natures remedy In such cases is to supply what the weak stomach lacks. There are several good preparations which will do this, but none so readily as Stuart's Dypepsla Tablets, which are designed especially for all stomach troubles, and which cure all digestive weakness on the common sense plan of furnishing the digestive principles which the stomach lacks. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give per- | feet digestion. First effect Is to in | crease the appetite and increased vigor, added flesh, pure blood, and strength | of nerve and muscle is the perfectly | natural result.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tabletsis the safest tonic known and will cure any form of stomach trouble except cancer of the | stomach. May be found at druggists at | 50 cents for full sized packages or direct | by mail from Stuart Co.,, Marshall

The New County Fight.

The new county Sight is 90 in serious earn

and there promises to be ho! times in old
Salem before the question is settled. The
Lee CouRty promoters, whose headquarters
are in Bisaopvile, have met :heir equals in

will take 10 Magnolia aod Lynchburg. From
what can be nscertained il appears that ma
jority of tae citizens Of the Lynchburg and
Magnolia section prefer not to go into new
county, bit having hecome convinced that a
new county, taking in the Eastern portion of
Sumter County, is one of the inevitable deye-
opments OF the near future, they prefer hav-
ing the court nouse conveniently located for
them, and bave therefore gone 10 work With
might and main to secure the establishment
of new county that will prevent their being
taken into Bishopville's jurisdiction. The
Magnolia-L .ynchbarg Countv will extend
from above Wisacky on the North into Clar.
endon County on the South. The Western
boundaries will be Black River and Scape Der
Swamp The eastern line will cut across
Darlington and Florence counties to the east
of Lamar and Gainesville, the citizens of
both these sections beng favoraby disposed
toward the new county. The Lynchburg
and Magnolia people offer to build all Deces-
sary public buildings and to build new
road across Lyuches River that will material
ly decrease the distance between the proposed
county seat aod the portions of Florence and
Darlington counties to be included The
contest will arise between Bishopvile and

by both and is essential to the success of either
