Quinsy, Sore Throat,
 Neuralgia of the Nerves

A remarkable cure was effected in the case of Mrs. Wm. Van Gaasbeek, of 14a Foxhall Avenue, Kingston, New York, who suffered a long time from Quinsy, Sore Throat and Neuralgia. After all other medicines failed, Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey made a permanent cure.
 In recent letter Mrs. Van Gaasbeek wrote:
 l have been great sufferer for long time from quinsy sore throat and neuralgia of the nerves. l had tried almost. everything but nothing seemed to help me. A friend advised me to try Dufy's Pure Malt Whiskey, and after taking half dozen bottles was cured. Have never had any symptoms of the disease since. 1 recommend it to any one suffering from these diseases"
 Thousands of unsolicited letters of gratitude like this of Mrs. Van Gaas- beck are received from grateful patients who are anxious to extol the merits of this great life-saver-Dufv' Pure Malt WhiskeY.

TO LITTLE ONES GIVES
WITH GENEROUS HAND
BaptiStS Send to Orphans
Home.

The little orphans of the State
Baptist Orphans Home at Hapeville,
as we'll as the poor little waits of the
Hepzibah Home at Macon will have
their Christmas cheer heightened to-
day by a generous gift sent from the
First Baptist Sunday school of
Americas. This school had it's
Christmas entertainment Monday
night at the church, and a delightful
occasion it proved for all Each class
had arranged to bring certain arti-
cles, and the sacks of flour, rice,
sugar, coffee, candy and other good
things made a pyramid in front of
the altar The Baraca class, the
flower" of the flock, contributed
twenty-five sacks flour alone. There
were contributions of money as well,
and a goodly sum in cash, besides
provisions for the little ones, will be
divided between the two homes. Sew
eral of the Americas Sunday schools
have thus given their Christmas Of
ferings to the orphans homes and the
poor of Americas, while that splen-
did organization, the Ladies Benevo-
lent Aid Society, has distributed
charity as we'll, as it has ever done at
this glad season.

TANNED TO DOORS ARE

A Multitude Thus Arrived
Here.

Trains arriving in Americas yes
terday up to a late hour in the eve
ming broke all records in the number
of passengers brought here. The
three trains on the Seaboard came in
with coaches packed to their capacity
and the platforms filled as well, while
over at the Central depot the crowd
seemed even greater. Both the early
trains, the two noon trains, the two
afternoon specials and the Columbus
train, seven arriving there within a
brief period, came crowded. The
greatest jam was at 2 p. m. when the
trains from Columbus, Montgomery
and Macon arrived Two engines
pulled train No. 6, and the overflow
of passengers was so great that it
filled the baggage car as well as six
platforms. When the multitude
alighted and started uptown, it re-
sembled the crowd that follows
circus pageant. But it was an order
ly crowd. No one arrived drunk,
however they may have departed, and
up to o'clock last night not a rev.

here. 1t was a great crowd of buy
ers, and Americas was glad to see
them come.

WEARING APPAREL
DID DUTY AS BANK
|
Woman Now Advertising
for Her $1,000

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-(SpeciaD-
The following advertisement has ap-'
peared in the papers:
LOST-$3,0 900 by self-supporting
woman: liberal reward will be paid
Troth, 14S West Forty-sixth Street.
This advertisement reveals that
the last article of woman's wearing
apparel which has done duty as
bank has failed In the course of
years feminine ingenuity has devised
many ways of carrying money with
more or less safety.
There is a small room in one of
the New York banks which is known
as the Stocking ROOM" because the
women patrons repair to that room
for deposits secreted in their hosiery,
but it is many years since the bus
tie has done duty as portmonaie.
A number Of years ago when this
article of wearing apparel was pre-
tentious in size and shape it used to
do good service in carrying packages
which were tied by shoppers to the
wire frames, but it has taken a
Western woman to use hustle for
bank.
The 5000 of the advertisement was
sewed securely by Mrs. Goht of
Denver, Col, into a little pad stuffed
with curled hair, which, with the
modern woman and her close-ftting
tailor suit, is the only thing in the
way of a hustle worn How or when
the money disappeared no one knows.
1t was the saving of years. When
the owner discovered on Thursday
that there was a little rip at the top
of the pad she investigated and found
that the money was gone That is
all she knows about it.
Mrs Croft, who is young woman,
came to this city three months ago to
perfect herself in tailoring, that she
might return to Denver and be fully
fitted to open a millinery and dress
making establishment. The money
which she was afraid to trust to
bank, and which she wore constantly
in the little hustle, was her capital
with which she intended to go into
business. She is now making ar
rangements to return home imme-
diately, as the loss of the money
makes it useless for her to stay lon

PLAN TO FIGHT DISEASE.
Druggists viii Battle Stomach TrOu-
bIes in Americas.

The increase of stomach troubles
in Americas has led Dodson's Phar-
macy to take effective measures to
combat the disease. They have the
local agency for Mona stomach tab
lets, and in order to induce people
suffering with weak stomache or in
digestion to use the remedy, offer to
supply it with the distinct under
standing that money will be refunded
in every case where it does not cure.
Mi-o-no is not mere digestive, but
an absolute strengthened and builder
up of the whole digestive tract. If
you suffer with headache, giddiness,
palpitation, bad taste in the mouth,
nervousness, coated tongue, distress
after eating, use Mi-o-na and see how
quickly these symptoms of a weak
stomach will disappear.
Remember that Dodson's Pharmacy
gives a guarantee to refund the
money unless it cures. 18-20-25

ENFORCING THE LAW

In a speech at Chicago on Sun
day, Attorney General Bonaparte, had
for his theme obstacles to the
Execution of Law On this subject
Mr.. Bonaparte has a profound ex-
perience an his words are en-
titled to much weight
The great trouble with enforcing
the laws, according to the speaker,
is that efforts to bring offenders to
justice were met with pleas of "un-
settling business, while in other
cases the offenders seemed to think
that law was not for their class, but
for the common people.
Says Mr. Bonaparte:
In all these cases aliket the idea
underlying the complaint, an idea
often more or less concealed by So
phistry and falsehood is that laws
are not really intended to be really
observed by some people. These
critics might, perhaps consent that
some show of enforcing such laws
should be made After a tedious and
expensive inquiry has shown clearly
that a wrong has been committed, the
culprit may be called to answer for
it; but when he shows, by way OF
answer, that he is captain of in
dustry' or the generallisimo OF fin
ance' or at least leading citizen in
other words, that he is rich or other
,xyf,a I'M ,,onfio1 would have him
go unpublished, or at worst, escape
with sham penalty about as for
midable as burning with cold iron.
In its last analysis it was a quas-
ton of whether or not the people
wish the laws enforced. This is
after all the real test. If the people
demand that offenders be punished
regardless of high or low degree, then
the laws will mean something. Laws
which work hardship could be eli
minated, but those on the statute
books should be enforced.
Again he said:
THE danger is that the people may
be deceived; and in fact, | believe
that widespread, persistent, sys-
tematic and INSCRIPTIONS attempt
to deceive the people as to these
things has been in progress during
the entire present national admins
tration and is in progress today"
One favorable sign of the times
is that the people are taking great
err interest and have more knowledge
of corporations than ever before. 1t
it becoming more difficult to fool
them, for the people ask only the
facts and insist on forming their
own conclusions.
Let the public be on their guard
against demagogues on the one hand,
and against the wiles of the sophists
who would for a purpose misrepre-
sent the facts 1t is fortunately get
ting more difficult to fool the people,
in part or in whole. In this is the
great promise for democracy
