SKILL OF DOCTORS TESTED.
Fifteen Years of Suffering.
II thought should surely die"

When the stomach begins TO fail In
its duties, other organs speedily become
affected in sympathy, and life is simply a
burden almost unbearable. Indigestion
and dyspepsia are so common that only
the sufferer from these diseases knows
the possibilities of misery that inhere in
them. typical example of the sufferings
of the victim of indigestion is furnished
in the case of Joha {. Pritchard. He went
on for fifteen years, from bad to worse
In spite of doctors he grew constantly
weaker, and thought he would die. He
got well, however, and thus relates his
experience:
For fifteen years was a great sufferer
from indigestion in its worst forms
tested the skill of many doctors, but grew
worse and worse, until I became so weak
could not walk fifty yards without having
TO SIT down and rest. My stomach, liver,
and heart became affected, aud thought
would surely die. / tried DR.. ]. c. AYERS
Pills and they helped me right away. I
continued their use and am now entirely
well. don't know of anything that wifi
so quickly relieve and cure the terrible
sufferings of dyspepsia as DR.. Ayers
Pills."-yoHN c. PRITcHARD. Brodie, War

Reports of maritime disasters along the
coast come in thick and fast. People who
go down to the sea in ships" should bear
in mind one thing in particular. namely,

Long ago twas the custom In the
south to give the lady whom one in
vited for a drive or outing a small
sum with which to buy flowers
fruit or confectionery TO enhance
the pleasure of the event. This
money, which probably varied with
the fortunes of the gallant, was
called "pin money" a writer tells
of young woman who encountered
the custom many years ago at Sara
toga. She had been invited to drive
with stately old school southern
gentleman and his daughter, and
after she had accepted the invita-
ton, to her surprise the father
opened his purse and gave her sill
yer dollar. Puzzled at so queer a
proceeding, she called upon an eld-
erly woman who was a social au-
thority, who explained to her that it
was "pin money" meant to invest
in bunch of roses TO carry in the
hand while driving.

MT. Sterling and MaysviIle Turn
pike Company.

AS heretofore expressed we re-
iterate, ''life and property should
be protected" This is a rule that
we wish to emphasize. The prop
erty Of the above named company
we are protecting by guards at a
cost Of $500 per month, about what
a gate keeper takes in per month,
Now it comes to our knowledge
that this company does not wish
to sell az a reasonable price. The
county would possibly give $40, 900
or even to the rise, which, to us
seems all it is worth in the present
condition. We are willing and
we think the people are, that this
amount be paid, but not one cent
more than it is worth would we
advise our court to offer even it
we are forced to protect the prop
erty from raiders. The company
may take advantage of this law
and think they can force us to their
price because we are required to
pay from our treasury $500 per
per month in the protection of the
road. That's all right, but if the
information we are receceiving be
correct; and we think it is, our
grand jury at the coming term will
indict the company, and on a final
trial the gate will be thrown op9n
by law. Now our court is gener-
Gus in its offer and are willing to
give a fair price for their road in
its wretched condition. If the
company allows their property to
become worthless it is their fault
and they must stand the conse-
quences. A fair price now is bet
ter than nothing latter on. Mid
dlesboro spectators remember
when they could have gotten fab
ulous prices for their holdings, but
now, after many years of waiting,
fortunate indeed would they be to
get one fourth cost, and SO it will
be with this company if they con-
tinue to bubble.

cause upon this vital question they

TERMS ANNOUNCEMENT.
ia great country like this

If great country like this
wishes to be the crib from which
other nations can feed, the only
thing necessary is TO give the OPP
portunity and the compliments will
continue so long as opportunities
are extended. We are having ex-
perience of this kind now. Eng
land tells us just the amount of
money and the kind we shall have
with which to conduct our bust
ness, and her representatives go SO
far as to fix the prices on pork,
beef and our cereal productions.
This is done at the expense of the
masses, those who produce from
the soil, the forests and our min
eral fields. We have become a
public crib, and will SO continue
to feed until our people, in their
power, shall rise with glittering
swords and exile these plumber
ere
