Do You Enjoy Your Meals !?
One of the Most Important Questions to Consider in the Search for HauDinesS and Health

The burning question to you is, Are you getting out of life all the pleasure and the health you are entitled to?" If not, why not?
 No matter whether every organ and member of your body is in a sound state of health and strength, If your stomach is in any way disordered, you are not going to be yourself" You are going to be a worried, out sorts, nervous or sullen individual, whose &C., tions will reflect your condition inside, and people will naturally avoid you. The world wants to smile and be cheerful and unless you are cheerful and smile, at least, occasionally, you will have few friends, fewer oppor tunities, no success, and you will go down in defeat-defeated by dyspepsia and bad stomach.
 A good and thol ough digestion has a quick, wonderful reaction upon the brain. You must have noticed it many times, for the brain and stomach are as intimately connected as a needle and its thread, one can hardly be used to advantage without the other. If your stomach is slow and lazy in dgesting your food, it will produce at once a slow, lazy and cloudy influence upon your brain. Mark it! If your stomach has absolutely quit work, and fermen- tation is poisoning your vitals as re- suit, surely your brain is going to be sluggish and correspondingly depressed. No one need tell you that.
 But why continue to suffer all the miseries and torments that a disor- dered stomach brings you?
 If your stomach cannot digest your food what will? Where's the relief? Where's the cure?
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are the relief and the cure. Why? Because, as all stomach troubles arise from in digestion and because one ingredient of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is able to thoroughly and completely digest 5000 grains of any kind of food, doesn't it stand to reason that these little Dys- pepsia Tablets are going to digest all the food and whatever food you put into your stomach? Science nowadays can digest food without having to use the stomach Nor it. And Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets are the result of this scientific discovery. They digest and digest thoroughly and well, anything and everything you eat.
 So, if your stomach refuses to work or can't work, and you suffer from eructations, bloat, brash, fermentation, biliousness, sour stomach, heartburn, irritation, indigestion, or dyspepsia of whatever form, just take one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, and see the difference It doesn't cost you much to prove it. Then you can eat all you want, what you want, whenever you want, If you use these tablets. anc you can look the whole world in the face with beaming eye, and you will have cheerful spirit, a pleasant face, a vigorous body and clear mind and memory and everything will look and taste delicious to you. That's life.

Telegraph wires were stretched through the county about 1860, but according to R. w. Cashion, one of the county comins- siont IFS and oldest citizens, the people looked with little favor on the enterprise. He relates that in 1862 the people held the wires responsible for an apparently end less drouth and cut them for distance of half q mile. Victor White, county treas urer, still preserves one of the wood ell blocks by, means of which the original wires were attached to the trees.
 From tho time of the war the growth of the county has been exceedingly slow About 20 years ago the Sixth District Az llcultural school, the greatest boon of the county, was established at Hamilton, and has done magnificent work in the educa- tion of the youth of Marion and adjoiu- ing counties. In 1900, following the de- struction by fire of the wooden court house, the people builded a splendid white sandstone structure, the material having been blasted from the hills of the coun- ty. This excellent courthouse would be d credit to any other county of the state. There has never been an official eXecu tion ip the county, although, judging from stor!es told of Pikevlle in the heyday of i;s youth, there should have been. In Hamilton, however no murder has ever occurred. In 1907, when the newspapers related the fact that the county treasurer had in h;s safe $l5,000 in currency yegg- men entered the peaceful community arG after "blowing" the till got away with about s4oao.

Gradually people from other states en- tered Marion county, the great majority coming from Tennessee, South Carolina
 and North Carolina. In the southern
 portion of the county Guin and Winfield were established. Tn the northeastern
 part Bear Creek came into existence.
 Hackleburg, Bexar and Shottsville are
 other interior trading points. But even
 until today the county Is sparsely set
 tied, not more than one-fourth it's area
 being occupied. This is due, of course,
 to lack of railroad facilities it's distance
 from large market places and shipping
 points and the former rough and un-
 couth character of the country.
 In the early days all supplies were hauled from long distances, at first from Eastport on the Tennessee river, and later, as railroads were built, from Iuila. 1 Aberdeen and Columbus, Miss. In 1887
 the Frisco extended its line across the | southern portion of the county and the l Alabama Northern across the upper ex- tremity. It was only recently that the l Illinois Central entered Marion. While
 these railroads bettered conditions ma 1 terially, it still Is necessary for inland 1 farmers to haul their crops from Is to l 20 miles for the purpose of reaching a l railroad
 The first settlers planted corn and wheat and depended on wild game for their meat Then practically every variety of game existed in abundance, and in comparatively recent years bear has been killed in Marion. Only a year or
 more ago wolf was shot. and while
 the breed has been exterminated entirely, two families in the county possessed pets whose forebears have destroyed sheep on the hilsdes.
 Just prior to the war there were several large plantations in the county, the own l CTS possessing slaves and growing cotton. Following the war. cotton became the principal crop with corn the second. The cultivation of wheat has been practically abandoned, although the Hamilton mills grind about 10o0 bushels per year at the
