The Stomach is the Man,

A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it cannot transform the food he
eats into nourishment. Health and
strength cannot be restored to any sick
man or weak woman without
first restoring health and strength to the
stomach. A weak stomach cannot d.
gest enough food to feed the tissues and
revive the tired and run down limbs and
organs of the body. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure cleanses, purifies, sweetens and
strengthens the glands and membranes
of the stomach, and cures Indigestion,
dyspepsia and all stomach troubles. w.

The store is still open and in charge
of Dents piano tuner, Mr.. Ponder, a
skilled artist IN his profession, who
has a bill of sale from Manager Dent
to the remaining stock.
Mr.. Ponder claims that the company
owes him a considerable amount as
salary, and that to reimburse him the
bill of sale was given. He hopes to
effect some kind of settlement with
creditors whereby he msy finally gel
what is coming to him.
Yesterday, however, creditors here
looked after their own interests.
Two or three fine organs, consigned
for shipment, were located in the office
of the Southern Express Go. and at
tached. Several other instruments
were likewise found, and spare room

'TwouId Spoil This Story to Tell It In
The Headlines.

To use an eighteenth century phrase,
this is an "o'er true tale" Having
happened in small Virginia town in
the winter of 1902, it is a story very
much of the present. Up to a short
time ago Mrs, John E. Harmon, of
Melfa Station, Va. had no personal
knowledge of the rare curative proper
ties of Chamberlain's Cough r ,medy.
Last January" she says, tiny baby
took dreadful cold and at one time I
feared she would have pneumonia, but
one of my neighbors told me how this
remedy had cured her little boy and I
began giving it to my baby at once and
it soon cured her. I heartily thank the
manufacturers of. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy for placing great a cure with
in my reach. I cannot recommend 1t
too highly or say too much in It's favor,
hope all who read this will try it and
be convinced as / was. For sale by all

WAS CARRIED AWAY
But So Quietly That No One Knew OF
Transfer.


Andrew BundrIck, the white prison
er long confined in the Americug jail,
charged with the killing of John
Shrouder in Dooly county, is now safe
in Jail at Vienna. where he will proba-
bly, be put upon trial in few days for
that most terrible tragedy.
So quietly did Sheriff Bell effect the
transfer of the prisoner that he was
behind the bars in Vienna ere anyone
here, or in Dooly county, were made
aware of the fact.
Sheriff Sheppard, CT Dooly, proba-
| bly, anticipated some trouble there.
AT all events he met Sheriff Bell
with his prisoner at Coney, the first
stopping point over the Dooly county
line, and from there carried him In a
buggy through the country to Vienna
The trip was made in safety, no one
attempting to harm the prisoner.
Bundrick will, no doubt, be given an
early trial. His brother, who was also
said to be connected with the killing
of Shrouder, is still at large and haf
never been caught.

COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Held Meeting on tuesday Ready For
Teachers.

Three of the five members of the
county Board of Education, Messrs.
Market, Bagley and Horne, were in
attendance yesterday upon the regu-
lar meeting of that body, though the
session was rather short and but few
matters of interest were discussed at
length.
The payroll for the past month was
duly approved and the money awaits
the pedagogues.
That is, those teachers who file their
reports in the Office of Supt. Moore on
or before Saturday next, 9TH. Only
the teachers complying with this order
will receive any money.
The county board has taken no &C.
ton as yet, and will take none, rela
tive to the purchase of school books
until after the Legislature meets in
June. By that time it is hoped that
some plan looking to state uniformity
in text books will be adopted.
The board here has been besieged BY
book agents recently, all desirous OF
selling a brand new set of books, but
the board will not adopt any of these
for the present.

He had been summoned. he would
say, to the residence of an influential
citizen and had been hidden to make
over one of the citizens old coats for
the son of the house.
Johnson, a little nervous through ex-

back his sleeves, measured the youth
and set to work. lie was getting along
well-the job, indeed, was nearly fin

that it was his own coat which he had
