A STATEMENT.

An Explanation About Severing Our
Connection With Savannah, Ga.
The Inducements OHered Us for That
Territory Actuated Us I'm Making
the Change.
Whereas, Profs. Padgett and Todd,
former teachers in our Savannah col
lege, wish to conduct a business col
lege in Savannah. Ca, have offered us
special inducements to cease to run
business college there, and for the ex-
elusive privilege of using our text books
in Savannah; and whereas, We have
business colleges located at seven other
different places, and will open one in
Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 2. in the Connally
building, corner Alabama and White
hall streets, we have decided to accept
Profs. Padgett and Todd's proposition.
They will continue to conduct bust
ness college in Savannah at our old
stand under the name of Padgett q
Todd Business College, Padgett q Todd
Proprietors.
We take pleasure in saying that
Messrs. Padgett and Todd have both
taught in our Savannah college. They
are thoroughly familiar with our SUI
perior course of instruction. Under our
contract they have the privilege OF
teaching our full course of bookkeep-
ing, including Draughon's New System
Bookkeeping, Double Entry Made Easy,
and using our full line of text books,
charts, illustrated methods, etc. We
have reason to believe that they are
prepared to give by far a better course
of bookkeeping than is given by any
other business college where our en-
tire course is not taught, and that they
are prepared to give a course in short
hand and typewriting equally as good
as the course given by any other bust
ness college.
We also have reason to believe that
Messrs. Padgett and Todd are not only
successful and competent teachers, but
that they are reliable, Woodworking
gentlemen. They will devote their en-
tire time to their college, giving the
same their personal attention, and we
wish and bespeak for them the success
which they justly deserve So long as
our text books are used in their school,
their graduates will be entitled to reg
lister with our employment department
for positions.

Do 1t Now.

Alexander Pope gave expression to
an immortal truth when he said, PRO
crastination is the thief of time" And
the great poet and philosopher. after
all, told but half a truth. Procrasti-
nation is the barrier to progress, the
foe of ambition, the death of opportun-
ity. The disposition to put off until
a more convenient time what ought to
be done to-day and now is the shoal
upon which millions have stranded.
What defeats, what disasters, what
wreckage of human hopes, are trace
able to this universal tendency!
incidentally we wish you to
ask yourself several questions.
Have 1 done my duty to my
family? Have l done it to the
full extent of my present ability? If
were to die tonight, would those who
are dear to me be safe from the pangs
of want? Would my children have a
comfortable home and means of educa-
ton? Would my wife be independent
of the cold charities of the world?
Would my estate pay my debts and
leave a competency to my family? If
not, must not obtain a life policy at
once. and substitute the certainty of
snug legacy at my death for the I'M
certainty of my life?

Two of Savannahs business men
died about one year ago from malaria.
They both had farms adjoining the
city, and both contracted malarial
poison while in attendance upon
their duties on their farms. These men
were both strong and healthy men ap-
parently but both succumbed to that
most insidious and deadly disease ma
laria. Had these men taken Johnson S
Chill and Fever Tonic they would be
alive to-day. A thorough course of
Johnson's Tonic will drive out every
trace of malarial poison from the sys-
tenn. Blood medicines can't cure ma
larial poisoning. The antidote for it
is Johnson's Tonic. The rainy season
is now upon us. and there will be a
great deal of malaria. Fortify your
self against it by thorough course
of Johnson's Tonic. A cure is guaran-
teed. Don't wait until it is too late,
