NOON IN AMERICUS
What is Going on the Town When the
Clock Strikes IL.

Noon, the dinner hour, the hour OF
comfort, of pleasure and relation
the one hour in the twenty -four which
comes to men and women of every
station with greater similarity than
the hour of any function in life.
Promptly as the clock strikes II in
Americas the shadows on anxious
faces turn to lines of good will, and il
villainous hot bread, pies, spices and
other indigestibles were excluded
there would be no such words as
dyspepsia or indigestion in the dictio n
airy.
But the contrary is true. and medi-
cal science has to step in and aid the
man or woman who has been too busy
to pay proper attention to health.
The greatest step forward in medical
discovery is Mi-o-na, which cures all
stomach and digestive troubles.
In hundreds of the best homes in
Americas and adjoining towns the
handy little tablets SO pleasant to
take, yet effective, have given quick
and lasting relief in indigestion and
that disagreeable full feeling after eat
ing.
Mona acts very gently. Much of
its wonderful power over indigestion
comes from its uniform but substain-
ing action. The required stimulating
and strengthnlng is given to the i'm
portnant organs of digestion without
producing the slightest weakness or
reaction.
A 50-cent box lasts for couple of
weeks and will ward off a dozen at.
tacks of indigestion. DodsOn's Phar
macy give a guarantee, absolute and
unqualified, with every box of Mi-o-na

MRS. H. A. TERRELL DIED TUESDAY
Former Americas Lady Dies at Scale,
Ala.

Mrs. II. A. Terrell, who is so well
remembered in Americas as Miss
Bessie ChappelI, died last evening at
her hons in Scale Ala. the end follow
ing a brief illness and before the arri-
val of her father, DR.. T. A. Chappell,
who was en- route there.
The announcement of the death
of this beautiful and lovable young
woman, wife of scarcely a year, will
cause deepest sorrow among her many
friends in Amer1cus.
Arrangements for the funeral were
not announced last night.
DR.. ChappeIl and daughter, Miss
Lucille ChappelI, left Americas yester-
day for Scale in response to a telegram
announcing the critical illness Of Mrs.
Terrell. Up to that time her condition
was not considered serious, so far as
her friends here know.
Less than a year ago Miss Bessie
Chappeu and Prof. Terrell were mar
ried and went to reside at Scale. Their
married life was an ideally happy one.
A bright, charming and Iovable young
woman, her death in the prime of life
is sad indeed.
The remains will doubtless be
brought to Americas for interment, al
though no announcement to that effect
has been made.

GREAT INCREASE
IN REGISTRY
Calls for Money Orders
Steadily on Increase
AMERICUS BUSINESS EXPANDS
Compared With Four Years Ago There
is a Tremendous improvement
in the Business of These
Two Postal Depart
mentS Here.

There has been a great increase in the
registration business of the Americas
postoffice in the past four years.
Four years ago there was, on an av-
erage, about 400 registered letters and
packages in about six months, very
small business for such town as this.
At this time the registration amounts
to about 2, 500 in six months.
This reflects the tremendous improve
ment in the business conditions of the
city, as compared with four years ago.
The business of the registry depart
ment is growing rapidly now, and it is
apparent that it will soon be well up to
what one would look for in a city the
size of Americas.
In the money order business there
has also been a great increase. In a
large measure the money order bust
ness cuts off the business at the regis
try window.
In the registry business Americas is
said to be a little behind Albany,
while that of the money order de-
partment shows a much heavier bust
mess than Albany.
1t Is understood that about 4, 900 more
money orders are issued here in year
than in Albany.
A post office so thoroughly reflects the
advance of city that it is especially
gratifying to note the rapid improve
ment in the business done IN these two
departments of the local Office.

costly rate, than would have been the
case had there not been so much wa

There is not now any imminent dan
