RURAL ROUTES TO
Be ESTABLISHED
Three Additional Ones Asked for by
Postmaster Collins Have Been
Recommended by Department.

Information to the effect that the
three additional rural free delivery
mail routes which were asked for re-
Gently by Postmaster Collins will be
established, was received in this city
yesterday.
The information was contained in a
letter which was an answer to one
written to Congressman Bowers by a
citizen of this county with reference
to the matter, and was to the effect
that the application for the new
routes had been acted upon by the
postoffice department, and their es-
tab'ishment recommended.
Assistant Postmaster Kearnaghan
is authority for the above statement,
the letter containing this information
having been shown him by the party
to whom it was addressed. Mr.. Kear-
naghan stated that the communica.
ton was from Congressman Bowers
private secretary, Mr.. Bowers being
absent from Washington on official
business, but it was none the less au-
thentic, as Mr.. Wallace, the writer,
explained that he had, during Mr..
Bowers absence, taken the liberty to
make personal inquiry with reference
to the matter, and that he had been
advised as above.
The letter stated further, however,
that while the establishment of these
new routes had been recommended
by the proper officials, the announce
ment was also made that the routes
would not be established Immediately.
for the reason that just at this time
the department had no funds to de.
vote to this purpose, but that the
matter would have prompt attention
as soon as the department was in
position, financially, to take care
Of it.

petition. Hampton's has the exclu.
sive right to the use of all of these
photographs. He had an expert pho.
tographer with him and his work was
carefully supervised, any defective
photographs that were made being
speedily detected and destroyed and
perfect ones made to REPLACE them.
This Photographic history Of Peary's
trip to the pole is really remarkable
achievement, as will be shown by the
reproduction in the magazine.
The pictures will tell in a more
striking manner than anything that
could possibly be written the awful
hardships and seemingly insurmount-
able difficulties encountered on that
history-making trip. Coupled with
the story of adventure told in Peary's
delightful and forceful style, this will
make a really wonderful magazine fea-
ture. The December Hampton's has

mander Peary himself will begin in

His machine, wandering away from

hopelessly lost in a maze of twisted

which is saying much, as the country
is notorious for mud.
A lone farmer toiling in the sun on
the side of the hill was hailed from
a great distance by the President, who
wished to escape. if possible, the ex
hausting climb from the road.
Twice the pleasant, ringing voice Of
the nations chief magistrate was
heard before the attention of the farm

could not distinguish the words of thu
wayfarer and was plainly hard OF

SENATOR MONEY
To Be A FARMER
Mississippi Senator Will Engage in
Fruit and Nut Growing, and =.
Will Raise Stock.
Special to The News.

Special to The News.
Ocean Springs, Miss, Nov. 24.-The
past week has been one Of unusual &C.
tivity in real estate at this place. A
good many pieces of town property
have changed hands, and in a good
many cases the new owners are new
corners who have bought homes or lots
upon which to build. The most i'm
portant deal of the week was the sale
of the Rose farm to H. D. Money, Jr..
and associates, one of whom is Sena.
tor H. d. Money. The purchase COM
prises about 800 acres of improved
land, which includes the houses, out.
buildings, orange grove, pecan grove,
grape fruit and other fruit trees, and
the fields now under cultivation. The
remainder of the Rose tract, about
1000 acres, of pine land, is retained
by George Rose. The purchase price
was not made public, but is said to be
about $4,000.
The Rose farm is undoubtedly the
best known citrus fruit, pecan, and
stock farm in South Mississippi. The
orange grove located on this farm is,
one Of the largest and most product
i've in this section of the country, and
the fruit is as fine as is grown any
where. These trees were set out
about ten years ago and are now in
the zenith Of their productiveness.
Something near $4,000 worth of fruit
was gathered there last season. For
several years F. M. Dick, the manager
of the farm, has carried splendid ex-
hibits Of oranges, grape fruit, nuts,
hay and other farm products to the
State fair at Jackson and has never
failed to capture great many prizes
on his exhibits. Rose farm has always
been one of the show places OF this
section, and especially at this season
of the year, when the fruits are ripe
The new owners will engage in farm
ing. fruit and nut growing, and stock
raising on an extensive scale. Two
hundred acres of farming lana, IN ed
dition to that now used, will be put
into cultivation. The idea is to make
the farm the greatest fruit, nut AMI
stock raising in South Mississippi. H.
D. Money, Jr., will reside at the farm
and superintend the operations.

One Million Dollars
for aGood Stomach
This Offer Should Be a Warning to
Every Man and Woman.

The newspapers and medical jour.
nails have had much to say relative to
a famous millionaire's offer of a mil
lion dollars for new stomach.
This great multimillionaire was toe
busy to worry about the condition of
his stomach. He allowed his dyspep-
STA to run from bad to worse until
in the end it became incurable. His
misfortune should serve as a warning
to others. Every one who suffers with
dyspepsia for a few years will give
everything he owns for a new stom-
ach.
Dyspepsia is caused by an abnor-
NAL state of the gastric juices. There
is one element missing-Pepsin. The
absence of this destroys the function
of the gastric fluids. They lose their
power to digest food.
We are now able to supply the pep
sin in form almost identical to that
naturally created by the system when
in normal health, so that it restores to
the gastric juices their digestive
power, and thus makes the stomach
strong and well.
We want every one troubled with
Indigestion and dyspepsia to come to
our store and obtain box of Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets. They contain Bis
muth-Subnitrate and Pepsin prepared
by a process which develops their
greatest power to overcome digestive
disturbance.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are very
pleasant to take. They soothe the ir-
ritable, weak stomach, strengthen and
invigorate the digestive organs, re-
lieve nausea and indigestion promote
nutrition and bring about feeling of
comfort.
If you give Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's reasonable trial we will return
your money II you are not satisfied
with the result. Three sizes, 25 cents.
