Not very long after the accident
large shaggy shepherd dog came along

The coroner's jury at Miami brought
in charge of murder against James o.
Williams for the killing of Mark d.
Bartleson, well-known travelling man.
The testimony brought out the fact
that the quarrel between them had been
adjusted, after which Williams went
away, returning half an hour later and
attacking Bartleson with a whip, then
shooting him. Able counsel has been
engaged to defend Williams, and A st.
Clair Abrams has been employed by
the relatives of the dead man to as
sist in the prosecution. The prelimi-
nary hearing will be before Justice r.
A. Smith of Miami this week. Will
liams is from Statesboro, Ga, where
his father is a well-known citizen. He
is said not to be bright mentally and
at one time was charged with lunacY.

Toccoa Record The waste water

fcient for operating Is cotton mills the
size of the ones in Toccoa. There are
% men in the great manufacturing
New England states, who are looking
for just such cheap power as there
is tumbling down these mountains, and
# seems that there ought to be 70
men in this county willing to expend
s25 in an effort TO induce these mill
men to investigate. Such things are
being done every day in other towns
all over the water power belt, and the
results have been a hundred fold in
crease in population and in business.
Instead however of these % men get
ting together and putting up the S25
necessary to start such an enterprise,
that will pay % per cent. over and

could not be done, and advance 20

Augusta Herald: When all the Won
6erful machinery was unloaded and
carried to Crawford avenue recently
the average Harrisburger was prone
to be a trifie vain. He thought that
this section of the city was the one
capable of greatest development and
took it as a compliment. He looked
with great delight on the big machines
tearing out great wagon loads of the
thoroughfare's bosom and contemplated
the crowds from down town with inn
mense satisfaction. But now there is
sadness in the heart of the West Ender
for Crawford avenue has been turned
into a quagmire, and it seems like
adding insult TO injury that all of this
havoc should have been wrought by
good roads machinery, in a good roads
demonstration at a good roads con-
vention. AS the matter now stands
folks are of the opinion that people
who want to give a good roads DEM
onstration should be required to file a
heavy bond that they do not give a
very practical and discouraging exhi-
bition of How to Ruin a Street"
Crawford avenue was a good street
before the good roads demonstration
on it, The rains of Friday and Satur-
day made it a quagmire almost inn
passable. At one point Sunday morn
ing there was a solid sheet of water,
so it is reported for almost a hundred
yards and the residents cIamored
loudly for batteaux. This morning the.

AN EASY WAY
To Keep We'll.

It is. easy to keep well if we would only observe each day a few simple rules of health.
 The all-important thing is to keep the stomach right and to do this it is not necessary to diet or to follow a set rule or bill of fare. Such pampering simply makes a capricious appetite and feeling that certain favorite articles of food must be avoided.
 Prof Wiechold gives pretty good advice on this subject; he says: T am 6s years old and have never had serious illness, at the same time my life has been large ly an indoor one, but I early discovered that the way to keep healthy was to keep a healthy stomach. not by eating bran crackers or dieting of any sort; on the contrary, I always eat what my appe- tite craves, but daily for the past eight years I have made it a practice to take one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal and attribute my robust health for man of my age to the regu- lar daily use of Stuart's Tablets.
 My physician first advised me to use them because he said they were perfectly harmless and were not a secret patent medicine but contained only the natural digestives peptones and diastase, and af- ter using them 6 few weeks have never ceased to thank him for his advice.
 honestly believe the habit of taking Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after meals is the real health habit, because their use brings health to the sick and ailing and preserves health to the we'll and strong"
 Men and women past fifty years of age need a safe digestive after meals to in- sure a perfect digestion and to ward of disease and the safest, best known and most widely used is Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
 They are found in every well regulated household from Maine to California and in Great Britain and Australia are rapidly pushing their way into popular favor.
 All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. full sized p<gs. at 50 cents, and for a weak stomach a fifty cent package will often do fifty dollars worth of good. tu-wed-frL

 It may well be asked why 1t would not be better for the professional schools to stop "puttieg on airs'' ia requiring bac- calaureate degrees and to accept students on the basis of fit and appropriate schol- arship rather than of engrossed sheep skin.

A naturalist has been making observa- tons on the toilets of certain ants, and has discovered each insect goes through only performed by herself, but by another. who acts for the time as Iady's maid The assistant starts by washing the face of her companion, and then goes over the whole body. The attitude of the ant that is being washed is one of Intense satisfaction She lies down, with all the limbs stretched loosely out; she rolls over on her side, even her back, per feet picture of ease The pleasure the little insect evinces being thus combed and sponged Is really enjoyable to the ob- server.
