A ROuSing Appetite

And What Is of Greater Interest,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
Enable the Stomach to
Digest Whatever Is
Eaten.

We all like to see the way healthy
children devour their meals Would we
could all do the same! Eating ought
to be a delight. 1t Is one Of life's chief
enioyments. People who can not relish
good meal are apt to fan into those
ill-tempered moods from which they
view the world as a sorry place to live
in. So let us learn TO employ the best
means of harmonizing our existence and
thus extract from our daily grind all
the pleasure there is to he had This we
can do by keeping our stomachs in
prime, active working order
A majority of people have come to
know the blessings which an occa-
sionaI use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
lets confer upon the stomach They
are unquestionably the most popular
remedy known for the reason that
dyspepsia is the national disease. that
these wonderful little tablets have long
since acquired a national reputation
as a thoroughly reliable and efficient
cure for all forms Of dyspepsia and
indigestion
No matter how great the excess Of
food taken into the stomach, one or two
Of these tablets will digest every particle
of it. \ package Of Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets should always be in the house.
Many a person has saved himself from
a serious attack of acute indigestion
by using them after heavy meaels. such
as are eaten Christmas. New Years
Thanksgiving and other holidays and
festal seasons.
After attending banquets. late sup
pers. heavy fancy dinners, after thea
ter parties. etc, where one has dined
sumptuously and luxuriantly, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets should invariably
be used, as they digest the food per-
fectly and completely, and prevent all
possibility OF dyspepsia, which, with
out their use, is more than likely to
ensue.
Americans are exceedingly fond Of
the good things Of life. and there Is
apt to be great excess Of eating, and

FINDINGS IN VIM
CASE AT VET HOME
UP TO GOV. BROWN

The findings in the Wlnn case at the
Confederate Soldiers Home were hand
ed to the governor today by Captain
Tip Harrison, a member of the board
The governor did not consider the
findings Immediately, but will take
them up shortly.
While nothing was given out official
ly as to the verdict, it is understood
that the board convicted Major Winn
of drunkenness, but not Of anything else
charged against him.
The governor has not said what his
course of action will be, in the event
the findings Of the board are approved,
as he is not altogether clear in his
mind as to his authority and jurisdic-
ton in the matter.

NEGRO GOES To
GALLONS JOKING
Black Slayer Enjoys Greatly
Auto Ride From Tower to
DougIaSviIIe Train.

Laughing and joking with the jailers
and his fellow prisoners about his exc
cution. and apparently enjoying an au-
tomobile ride from the Tower to the
Terminal station as though he had been
on picnic excursion, Leonard Lewis. a
negro slayer. this morning was taken
from the Tower to DouglasviIe, where
he was hanged at noon
Goodbye. fellows | guess / won't
see you again" called out the doomed
handcuffed. he was led away by Sheriff
w A. Baggett, of Douglas county.
To Jailer Golden he remarked:
This is something new for me, all
right. but l don't mind It as much as
thought l would. I'd just as soon be
hung, anyway. It's all over in a few
minutes, and ] don't guess there's much
pain about it,
As he was being sped to the Terminal
in the auto with Sheriff Baggett and
Deputy Sheriff Suttles OF Fulton coun-
ty. the slayer laughed and chatted, and
never once displayed the slightest sign
Of nervousness.
No Regret For Crime.
"That negro has either got a nerve
Of iron, or hasn't any nerves at ALL"
commented Deputy Suttles.
Lewis was hanged for the murder Of
another negro, whom he shot to death
following crap game After losing in
the game Lewis went away obtained a
pistol, and, later meeting the winner,
asked him to return the spoils. When
the latter refused, Lewis shot him.
Asked about the killing just before
he left the Tower, he showed no regret
at all, but showed an almost inconceiv-
able spirit of bravado and revenge.
IF that niger should jump up here
before me now I'd shoot him again" he
said with a grin. when l fired the
first shot. he fell but he kept kicking,
and l just simply kept shooting until
he got perfectly still"

Atlanta Financiers Have Pasture Pool FeUer
GOLF BUG GETS BANKERS

Atlanta bankers have the golf fevel
this season. It is worse. far worse.
than the notorius bicycle bug which
stung them fifteen years ago. and the
epidemic has nearly as many victims in
the financial world as the Well known
motor mania. The links at East Lake
look like a coupon clippers convention
these snappy afternoons and the only
men left indoors after 2 o'clock are the
third assistant bookkeepers and the
lanitors. Everybody else is pounding
the pill about the pasture.
Ernest Woodruff. head of the Trust
Company Of Georgia and a number of
other things sprang great surprise
in financial circles by joining the golf
ing department of the Atlanta Athletic
club at East Lake The announcement
is surprising, because for many years
Mr.. Woodruff has lent himself assidu-
ously to business pursuits, to the utter
exclusion of athletics. politics and SINH
lar frivolous pastimes. Time and time
again friends of the well known banker
and capitalist have suggested that he
go in for outdoor life and some light
form Of sport. Mr. Woodruff is no
pigmy. on the contrary, he is more
nearly in the class of the giant-not
very tall, but thick set, muscular and
determined as you please. But he has
persistently refused, and has gone on
evolving business schemes, putting
things under the brand Of the dollar
mark
Woodruff BIames Friends.
Imagine the CONSERVATION Of his bust
ness associates, therefore when he
came in the other afternoon with a
blazing Scotch plaid golf cap and some
other fancy trimmings known best to
followers of the great national business
mans game! a ripple of excitement
went through the whole banking pro-
fession and Mr. Woodruff is busy to-
day explaining that it wasn't his fault
by a great deal.
you see" declared Mr Woodruff to
an intimate. Frank Hawkins and Jim
Nunnally got me into this. and the fas-
cination is keeping me in. Why, it's
really a great game. and maybe I've
missed something all these years. /
haven't yet given up business, but I'm
getting along fine and in a few more
days will be able to show the boys a
few fancy strokes. My percentage in
golf sticks and other accessories is 1000
so far and my average in puts is grow
ing SO fast that the older players are
beginning to marvel. Yes, stree, golf Is
a great game"
That is Mr.. Woodruff's alibi The
story of a person who saw him play is
not exactly in accord with it, since this
individual swore by the Great Book
that Mr. Woodruff required 700 strokes
to complete the course, and that in one
game, and at one stage of it he was so
far behind that he hasn't finished yet
Ever'body's DOM Something.
In justification of his action in re-
ceiving the sacred rites of the golf
club, Mr. Woodruff dwells on the recent
initiation of his faithful coadjutors,
Hawkins and Nunnally. the former of
whom went in year ago, more or less,
and the latter much more recently. Not
only that but he points out that Of

- Columbia State, Monday: When
the meetings today at Kingstree and
tomorrow at Manning shall have been
held, the biennial state political can
vass will have been concluded in that
tier of counties east and north of the
Santee, which make up the section
known as the Pee Dee. To cover this
section. comprising IL counties, the
itinerary provided IL meetings, one
in each county seat. Two unofficial
meetings in addition have been held
the first in the mill district at Ben
nettsville, the second at Mullins In
Marion county. The meetings Of the
latter part of this week, which Is the
third of the campaign, will be held
in counties of the middle coast range
Berkeley, Charleston and Colleton::
Much the most important meeting of
the five scheduled for the week will
be that appointed to be held Friday
evening in Charleston. Several OF
the counties in which Gov. Blease has
shown formidable strength In previous
campaigns are to be visited within the
four weeks intervening between this
date and July 26, when recess OF one
week will begin. What showing ne
will make in some or these counIles
may pe forecasted with reasonaple
certainty, but the greatest degree or in
terest attaches to the attitude of vot-
ers i'm the populous Piedmont which
the candidates will not reach until
we'll into August. In two OF the coun-
ties to be visited this week, Charleston
and Beaufort, the issue, locally, or the
Blease-Jones race Is bound up TO a
considerable extent with the issue OF
local political complications, just as
II is in Georgetown. The meeting IN
Columbia, which is appointed 10 pc
held July 10, will probably be heid III
the evening. At this time tnere Is no
nrosnect of any specially important
new DEVELOPMENTS in the campaig gn
this week. except such as may arise
at the Charleston meeting. Gov.
Blease will probably not attend the
meeting today at Kingstree. He said
at Georgetown Saturday that engage
ments i'm Columbia would prooapiy
