HThe case is my own. I, had been
suffering for more than 25 years with
nervous dyspepsia, insomnia, occasional

was affected and so I lost weight and
strength, but most serious of all was
the gradual failure of my memory, prov
ing that my brain and nerves were not
getting the proper food any more than
the rest of my body.
Three times L made. the journey to
Carlsbad, and spent a fortune consult

medicines known to science failed to

WASH It born yesterday in this tailor
ing business and I've seen a lot Of
schemes for making a man with a build
like a match look like center
rush. But my method of fitting the
shoulders and collars Of coats beats any
thing ever saw for the athletic look.
I've yet to see the equal of my coat
construction. Not quantity Of wadding
and stiffening, but the iudicious use Of
it. That gives set, style, balance
character to a coat. It is the kind of
coat front that stays "put.'
Not trust-to-luck fit, OF here's hop
ing-it-will- hold-its-shape work, but real
tailoring that grows old gracefully.
And you can't block out trousers
with Ratchet and expect them to hang
either. Some want the golf effect,
some want peg trousers, some want this
and some want that. Fancy a particu-
lar dresser depending on hand-me-downs
for real character in trousers. Ten to
| one the store trousers are cut off here,
or let out here-anYthing for tenn
porary results.
So we get back to first principles. If
you are going to have any identity as
| dresser, you must have your clothes
| made for you.
And if you agree that the tailor
| made, made to order clothes are the
thing, then the rest is easy, because my
price for suit or overcoat made to order
is $500. And there ism It a tailor in
this or any other town that can get in
my neighborhood at that price. You get
| $4,000 worth for $500 every time you
| buy your suit or overcoat of. the Scot
land Wooden Mills Go.
| No use putting off the day of order
ing. No use doubling the Scotland
Wooden Mills Go: plan. 1t is right and
here. Yours truly,
| HARRY MITCHELL.

the statement"
1t was handed to him and without
further conversation he went to his
hotel. Getting to his room, he opened
up the statement and looked at q great
mass Of figures which were as Greek to
him except as to the conclusion, where
appeared line in red ink: "Balancc

colonel had never tainted in his life,
but he felt very much like it at this
moment, and he sat down feeling very
sick.
Heary Gregory had never before known
financial worry, but after the first
shock he had faced it like man. He
went home and took counsel Of his wife,
the result Of which was the conclusion
that It would consume his entire prop
srty to pay his debts. Fortunately Mrs.
Gregory had q good property which was
not in any way encountered. They
found a purchaser for everything ex.

served. and enough live stock to haul

showed the fatigue Of steady travel
The drivers seat was occupied by u ne
gro man about Atty years old, who re-
joiced in the sonoyous name of Anthony
Bartholomew EEegory, abbreviated by
common consent to "Uncle Tony"
Old Tony was huddled up in lump,
with heavy blanket on his knees, and
well wrapped UP in a thick old overcoat,
with heavy gloves and black SLOUGH hat.
Nothing was Visible of him but his fat
nose and pair Of bright black eyes as
yet undimmed by age. While it was
quite impossible for him to get wet
through, yet after the fashion Of his
tribe he was keeping up steady mono
tone Of grumbling all to himself. s'Git
up dar, Blucher, 'clar to goodness you
is suttinly de most LATEST beast ever

whip as II he were going 10 cut the lazy
BlYcher into pieces, and would wind up
by giving him gentle tap that had not
one-tenth the effect on Blucher that the
lnsplting speech had. Then old Tony
would break out again:
HYou 'Poleon, If dey is Yps creeter
On dis yearth dan Blucher, you is dat
creeter," whereat Napoleon would prick
up his ears and for few moments step
out briskly, only to relapse into the
weary plodding gait that seemed to vex
Tony SO greatly.
After = few moments old Tony re-
commenced: SWELL, ob all de foolish

Inside the carriage Col. Henry Greg.
ory, his wife, Mrs. Martha. and their
little daughter, Janet, bright little
miss Of thirteen, were all making them
selves as comfortable as the weariness
begotten Of q long journey would
allow. The colonel lay back with a
worried look on his kindly face; Mrs.
Gregory, q pleasant and rather hand
some lady of early middle age, leaned
back in her corner with an expression
OF face which seemed to say that she
was resigned to any fate. Janet. after
exhausting her parents with the usual
numberless inquiries about the country,
and the people, and the streams, and
the thousand other things that children
find to ask questions about, had fallen
into a light slumber.

Col. Henry Gregory was the third of

lower middle Georgia and bought an
estate on which he had lived many
years, dying at good old age and leav-
ing his large possessions to his only son,
the second Henry.
Henry Gregory, the second, served in
the Creek war under Jackson, but with
that brief exception his whole life was
passed ON his plantation, looking after
his crops, managing his negroes and
dispensing liberal Hospitality. He
