Many Fords Bought

Many people of wealth who realize
the adaptabflity of the Ford car are
buying Fords for the boys and girls OF

most unparalleled life Of fast living
and dissipation has provided a theme
for more sermons than any occur
renee of recent years, conducted a
brokerage Office.
None of Mr., Gates employees in
the Fuel Company's offices ever
thought much of Charles ability
says Miss Veg. He was never known
John w W. Gates Son" He was
very proud of his father and tried to
do everything the elder man did
which was probably why Charlie
failed to develop an individuality of
his own. Charles speculations In
Chicago were very unsuccessful
Everybody thought of Charlie aGtes
then as being nothing but boy, al
though he was about thirty years old.
"Mr. Gates used to treat Charlie
more like brother than like q son,
and they were constant companions.
In the office we would hear Mr.. Gates
talking to his son, and his talk was
lust like one brother would use to
another.
whatever else John w. Gates may
have been, his kindness to his en-
ployees and the people he liked was
proverbial, and many interesting tales
have been told of the aid and en-
couragement he gave to those who
helped him amass his immense for

employees of his Chicago offices We're
as loyal as ever We're any kings sub
jects.

friendly to any of us" Miss Veg said,

nee essary that the small head of the
root joined to the rest of the root by
a small neck shall remain a part of
the product. Breaking off OF such
little heads reduces the value of the
root in the Chinese market fully half,
as a rule. The root should be packed
so as to prevent such breakage
If the root divides into two or more
stems, It is likely to have enhanced
value.
The prices of wild ginseng have
been advancing in China and the cul-
tivated falling. The last quotations
from Hong Kong gave s11.52 per
pound for extra good Wild root, $10.S0
for good root. and 1854 for fair root,
while extra cultivated root brought
$3.50 per pound, good cultivated root
$6.72 per pound, and fair cultivated
root $5.04 per pound.

Eats Freely But
Has No Dyspepsia
A Little Pepsin in a Mild
Laxative Promptly Cor
rected a Bad Indi-
gestion.

Fortunate is ne on who can eat
anything" without suffering the
tortures of dyspepsia. but as few are,
so fortunate, care should be taken I'M
the matter of diet. Eating slowly,
masticating the food thoroughly and
taking a short walk after the heavy
work of the day will do much to-l
ward resisting digestion. Any
grown-up person ought to know the,
peculiar foods that do not agree, and,
these should be avoided.
When these common-sense aids
fail, the next thing to do is to take
mild digestive tonic, with laxative
properties, and there is none better
than DR.. CaldwelFs Syrup Pepsin. 1t
contains the greatest of all aids 20
digestion, good pepsin. 1t has otnsr
ingredients that act mildly on the
bowels which together form a COM
bina ton for the relief of dyspepsia
or Indigestion that is unsurpassed.
It's action is to tone and strength
en- the stomach and bowel muscles
80 that they can again do their work
naturally without outside aid, and
when that happy moment comes all
medicine can be dispensed with. Il
Is the best remedy obtainable for
any disorder of the stomach, liver
and bowels, for dyspepsia, constipa-
ton, biliousness, headaches, drowsi-
ness after eating, gas on the stom-
ach, etc. Thousands of users will
testify to this, amonP them Mr.. ).
w. Goucher, Sites, Idaho, who for
several years had all the worst
symptoms Of chronic dyspepsia.

GINSENG BUYERS
NOW PREPARING
FOR SHIPMENTS
Large Amount of Root Will Clear
Through AtIanta-GnarIed,
Twisted Kind Best.

ATHENS, Nov. 22,-The ginseng
buyer is gathering up his annual
shipment of this interesting product,
and during the season a large amount
of the root will clear through the
produce houses of Atlanta and other
Southern cities.
In the Southern Appalachian re-
gion the root grows wild and noun
taineers gather it and sell 1t to the
country stores, which in turn sells
to the ginseng buyer who annually
makes his rounds.
While there have been several at
tempts to grow ginseng on com
mercial basis there have been many
failures. and the fact remains that
most of the Southern output of gin
seng is the wild variety Success at
growing ginseng requires great deal
of care and information.
Novces Lose Money.
Much money is lost each year by
failure of those who gather, grow
and handle the root to understand
its real value. 1t is not the large
smooth, light colored roots that show
cultivation, that bring the best prices,
as one might naturally suppose, but
it is the rough. gnarled, dark prod
uct of wild ginseng, or the cultivated
variety that is made to most resem-
Bile the wild, that bring the most
money in the Chinese market
Ginseng can, therefore, not be
grown and sold like so many other
root products by the pound. The
central theory, according to Consul
General Anderson, of Hongkong, of
the Chinese in the use of ginseng Is
that 1t combines in itself the virtues
of nature-wind. water, woods, the
elements and wild nature generally.
Hence the gnarled, twisted wild root
is the ideal quality root, and any do
mesticated or cultivated variety is
merely a substitute. This substitute
ought to be as nearly like the wild
as possible. II the root grows in the
shape Of or seems to bear some re-
semblance, even by severe stretch
Of the imagination, to some animal,
it has increased virtue in the trade.
For this and similar reasons It is

ROAD
To AUGUSTA IS
NOW PROPOSED
South Carolina and Georgia Cap
itaIists Form Company to
Build From EasIey.

ANDERSON, S. c., Nov. 22.-Great
interest has been AROUSED in this sec
ton over the plans outlined at Able
vile. when, at a general meeting of
more than 200 business men from
Easley, Anderson, Antreville, Able
vile, Mccormick, Edgefield, North
Augusta, S. c., and Augusta, Ga, a
board of incorporators were elected
and empowered to Immediately in
corporate under the laws of South
Carolina and Georgia to build a rail-
road, electrically equipped. from Eas-
ley through the towns mentioned to
Augusta, a distance Of about 120
miles, authorizing the board elected
to Immediately open subscriptions
books in all the interested cities and
towns and to begin plans for survey
ing the entire line, getting up of cost
estimates, and taking other neces-
sary steps for building the line, to
handle both freight and passenger
traffic. Anderson, the largest city
on the proposed line except Augusta,
was represented by 81 delegates.
The board includes men of large
financial means, all leaders in their
respective communities. The board
includes ]. p. Leach and w. c. Smith,
lawyer and capitalist of Easley, the
proposed northern terminus; j. H.
Anderson, banker, and A. S. Farmer,
cotton mill president, of Anderson;
S. j. Wakefield, manufacturer and
merchant, and A. M. Erwin, merchant,
of Antreville; j. j. Andrews and T.
J. Price leading business men of
Mccormick; w. N. Grayton, lawyer
and banker, and c. c. Gambrell,
Mayor, of Abbeville; w. P. Calhoun,
lawyer, and O. p. Bright, president
Chamber of Commerce, Of Edgefield.
The incorporators from Augusta are
to be named later, 1t being decided to
place the matter before the Augusta
Chamber of Commerce for consid-
Grafton. 1t was stated at the or
ganization meeting and later at a
meeting of the incorporators that
enough money was represented at the
meeting to finance the entire propo-
sition, if necessary. 1t is generally
believed that the road, as mapped out,
will be constructed.

"Worst Loser ! Ever Saw" Hotel
Cashier Says Of Steel Magnate.
"He Never Forgave Man Who
Gave Him a Bad Tip"

Mr.. Roberts told me he made $40. 900
on a tip he got from Mr. Gates.
"One of the most remarkable things
! ever noticed about Mr.. Gates was
his memory. There was one incident
in the Office work that illustrates this
very we'll A letter covering a sheet
of closely written paper had been
written by Mr.. Gates, and presuma-
bly, mailed to a customer. A month
passed, and nothing was heard from
the person to whom the letter was
addressed, and fearing that the let
ter had not been delivered, and the
duplicate having been lost. Mr.. Gates
wrote another, saying that he would
write it as nearly like the other as
possible.
HE dictated the letter. and 1t was
mailed. Some time later the missing
letter was found in the office, and,
with the exception Of such words as
"a and the was identical with the
letter written by Mr.. Gates month
later than the original"
Gates devotion to his old father
and mother has been the subject Of
many articles, and Miss Veg told a
story out of her fund OF "reminiscences
of the financier that illustrates his
love for his parents more than any
thing that has ever been published.
Good to His Parents,
Who Adored Him.
"Old Mr.. Gates used to come into
our offices when his son was away y
said Miss Veg, and ask US if we
heard from John every day, and how
John was getting along He often
bemoaned the fact that he was de-
pendent on his son, and expressed a
desire to invest some money in order
that he might feel that he was still
capable of doing business. So Mr..
Gates asked him how much money he
wanted to invest, and his father
bought several thousand dollars
worth of rice. He didn't watch the
market very closely, and when several
days later he came around to see
how his investment was getting along,
iO'N
all his original investment and owed
several thousands more in margins.
But Mr. Gates wrote his father out a
check for the amount of the original
investment and added a few thousand
dollars, about what his father would
have won had the market gone his
way, and mailed it to him, with a
letter congratulating his father on his
business acumen and success. Mr..
Gates father never knew that he did
not win the money in the rice mar
ket.
while Mr. Gates was prodigal with
his money, he always advised other
people to be careful. He used to get
hundreds of letters every day from
people who wanted to know how they
should invest their first hundred dol
lars. He always turned them over to
his private secretary, with instruc-
tons to answer them in the form he
answered all such inquiries and re-
quests for advice. The answer was
always the same: Put your money
in the bank. If you haven't more than
a hundred dollars yoa can't afford to
lose it,"
