Rest is the great restorer We tire
our muscles by exercise and then rest
to restore them; yet a great many OF
US do not stop to think how little rest
we give TO our stomachs. AS usual
thing no part of our bodies is SO gen
erally overworked as our digestive or
gans. A tired and overworked stom-
ach will give signs of distress to which
we pay no heed until at last Dyspep-
sia takes hold Indigestion is just n
warning, and IL we heed the warning
we can easily avoid further conse-
quences. Kodol is a most thorough
stomah relief. 1t digests what you
eat and gives the stomach the needed
rest and greatly assists in restoring
it to its normal activity and useful
ness. Dodol is sold on guarantee re.
lief plan. 1t is sold here by c. II.

Poultry Show.
A feature of the fair that claims a
prominent place is the poultry ex-
hibit.
Mr.. S. S. Stansbury Is the superin-
tendent of this department and when
interviewed as to the outlook for his
department. said:
Every indication points to one of
the grandest poultry shows ever held
in the South. l am receiving letters
every day from breeders from all parts
of Virginia and the bordering States
requesting entry blanks and many with
entries inclosed. The Virginia Poultry
Association, which is composed of the
leading poultry breeders Of Virginia,
will be on hand with most every va
riety of fowls mentioned in the Stand
ard. i am glad to say the managers
of the fair have seen the Importance of
thoroughbred poultry, and are leaving
nothing undone for the necessity of a
good show, having contracted for the
most up-to-date coops that could be
bought; also water and feed cups; and
the building will be put in thorough
repair and rewhitened. They have also
secured the services of one of the best
judges in the country-Mr. Robert l..
Simmons-who has been judging poul-
try shows in all parts of the United
States for the past ten years There
fore no breeder who has any good
poultry can afford to miss this show,
as 1t is compelled to prove profitable
to all breeders, and the public gem
orally can count on seeing one of the
grandest displays of thoroughbred poul-
| try ever shown in the South
Owing to the difficulty in choosing
exhibition birds at this season of the
year, when the birds are moulting, the
date of closing of entries is extended
to October 1st, the date originally in
tended to be set, but in which a mis-
take was made when the premium list
was printed"
Mr.. CorIcy's Letter.
Dear Sir,-In view of the large num-
Der of visitors expected In Richmond,
Virginia State Fair and Horse Shoe
week, the committee on decoration de-
cided it advisable to request the mer-
chants on Main and Broad Streets to
decorate their buildings for the occa-
sion.
In order to make the plan general,
and carry out the work to the best
advantage, they added one merchant
in each business block to the commit
tee, with the request that ne canvass
his block, with the view OF interest
ing his neighbors in making a full
and complete decoration of the build
ings in the territory assigned.
You are appointed on the committee.
and earnestly requested to see the
merchants In your territory.
We trust you will take the work up
promptly; see the merchants. and re-
port, as early as possible. the names
Of those who signify their Willingness
to decorate.
Thanking you in advance for your
cooperation, we remain.
Yours very truly.
