A FEW
WORDS ABOUT
JOBPRIN7INC

1t used to be that the quality of
Job Printing did not amount to
much, so far az success in business
was concerned. ANY business man
or woman could get along fairly well
without it. But we live in another
and altogether different era.
Today it is necessary for business
people to have neat stationery if they
intend to occupy a prominent place
among their competitors.
When you see piece of job print
ing crowded and the type jammed
too close together, with dirty.looking
ink and finger marks smeared over
It, on low grade of paper. it doesn't
spesk well for the firm which uses it.
In fact, you don't have the same
opinion of that place as you have of
the man whose stationery is clearly
printed with good ink on the best
grade of paper.
The quality of stationery reflects
the standing of ones business. 1t is
therefore duty you owe to yourself
to have good printing.

WAS NOT in
The SCHEME.
DR.. Carl Johnson is Alive and
Has Been Heard From BY
His Friends.

Last evening the editor of this pa
per was called to the phone by DR.. A.
johnson, of Montrose, father of Dr.
Carl johnson. acting consul at Annoy.
China. whom Collector of Customs
Shuster charged with being implicat-
ed in scheme to defraud the govern
ment.
DIR. johnson felt very much ag-
grieved over the fact that the asso-
ciated press had made the statements
about his son that they had.
DR.. johnson, the father. states that
when he first read that his son. DR..
Carl johnson. had been charged by
Shuster with having been interested
in the scheme to make money by per-
mitting coolies to be shipped into the
Philippine islands. he av once cabled
his son regarding the matter. A
cable reply came back stating that he,
DR.. Carl johnson, had heard of the
charges and that they We're awaiting
an investigation.
On Monday. the father again re-
ceived the following cable from his
son: '.McWade. after thorough in
vestigation fully exonerates consul
late" The McWade referred to is the
U. S. Consul at Canton. China. In
the first dispatch it was said that the
agreement made McWade BENEFICIARY
of the contract. on the sale of permits
sion for coolies to enter the Philip
pines.
DR.. johnson has heard no other
word from his son. That there were
serious charges made against the con-
sulate and against DR.. Carl johnson.
is evident from the cablegram that he
sent to his father saving that an in
vestigation had been made.
So far as this pnpc- is concerned it
is happy to make this announcement
for Dr. johnson at Montrose. the
father and also for the son. against
whom this serious charge was made.
In relation to the dispatch regard
ing the killing of man by the name
of johnson. there was some bad mis-
take. Both original disnatches came
the report, made horrible mix up of
the two persons. Evidently the dis
patches had no relation to each other.
But they gave the impression that
they had.
DIR. A johnson the father of DIR.
Carl johnson is an honored citizen of
Montrose and he feels agitated over
the matter that such a charge should
have been made against his son. But
the cable from his son states that the
consulate was cleared from any blame
in the matter whatever, notwithstand-
ing the open charges made by Col
lector Shuster.
To all the friends of the family in
this section the news cabled the ia
ther will be most welcome and it
should be given rs wide publicity as
the dispatches that made the serious
charges, which have after thorough
| investigation been disproven.

Hanson and Mrs. Henry Peebles of Atlanta, Miss Carrie Berry of Eufaula. the guest of Mrs. Charles Oscar Locke. Miss Bessie Jemi- son, Miss Mary Anderson, and Miss Mar garet Nixon.
 Their house on Highland avenue was superbly decorated in palms and American bamboo, a pyramid of palms at the en- trance to the dining room extending to a height of several feet. In the drawing rooms the decorations were in pink car nations in delicate contrast to the fres- coes and the white woodwork. In the dining room beyond where hot buffet supper was served, the decorations were appropriate to the Thanksgiving season. The circular table had its mahogany sur face covered with lace. the central decor ation being a large pumpkin filled with fruits, and tied with pink ribbon. The clusters of grapes ornamenting the table were tied with pink ribbon, and in artistic contrast were the pale green shades on the candlesticks. Chrysanthemums in the most gorgeous tints blended with the col ors of the shaded lights, the paler tints of the ribbons, while the colorings in the fruits and foliage seemed reproduced in the delicate shades In the candlesticks, the effect beggaring description.
 In an apartment opposite the dining room ices were served, the decorations typical of Dutch interior Posters Of Dutch scenes ornamented the walls and several young girls wearing the pictur- esque Dutch costume served the ices from table artisticaly decorated in yellow. Punch was served in the colonial hall, its rich mahogany interior being an effective background for the brilliant decorations.

THEY ACTUALLY
DO THE WORK
Food Eaten Is Worthless Unless Di- gested-Some Stomachs Must
 Have HeIp

Food taken into the stomach which from the nature of the food or the condition of the stomach, is not dgested, is worse than no food at all. This Is a true state
 ment as far as it goes and a great many dyspeptics go only this far with their reasoning. They argue with themselves that because their stomachs do not do the work given them, they must be given less work; in other words they must be starved It would be just as sensible for business man who is unable to do all his own work to cut down his busi- ness to his own capacity as 1t is for a man. to starve himself to relieve his stomach. The sensible business man employs help and goes forward with his business. Likewise the sensible dyspep- tic will employ help for his stomach and give his body proper nourishment. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets actually do
 the work assigned them. They relieve weak and overburdened stomachs of a great portion of digestive action Their component parts are identical with those of the digestive fluids and secretons of the stomach and they simply take up the grind and carry on the work just the same as good, strong, healthy stomach would do it.
 | On this account Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab | let's are perfectly natural in their action
 and effects. They do not cause any un-
 natural or violent disturbances in the stomach or bowels. They themselves di-
 gest the food and supply the system with | all the nourishment contained in what is eaten and carry out Natures plans for | the sustenance and maintenance of the | body.
 l How much more sensible is this method l than that employed by many sufferers | from weak stomachs. By this means body
 and brain get all the good. nutritious food l they need and the man is properly nour- ished and equipped to carry on his work and perform his duties. He could not possibly be in proper working condition l by straving himself or employing some new fangled, insufficient food that docs not contain enough nutriment for a year | old baby. strong man doing str)r g | work must be properly fed and this ap- | plies to the brain as well as the body 1 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. by reiev- | ing the stomach of it's work, enable it to recuperate and regain its normal health and strength. Nature repairs the worn | and wasted tissues just as she heals and | knits the bone of a broken limb, which | is of course not used during ths process l of repair.
 l Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale | by all druggists at 50 cents box and l they are the one article that the drug | gist does not try to sell something in the
 | place of that's just as good" Their un-
 qualified merit and success and the uni
 versal demand for them has placed them
 within the reach of every one.
