DIR. Cheek was in my store few

some gentlemen regarding the merits
of Tanlac, and his experience with
Tanlac was so remarkable that I ask
ed him if he would object to giving
me signed statement for publica-

MYSTERIOUS DEATH
OF A YOUNG MAN
CLIFF AYCOCK FOUND SITTING
AT STEERING WHEEL OF
CAR UNCONSCIOUS.

The current issue of the Edison
News contains an account of the
mysterious death of Mr.. Clifford Ay-
cock, a young man of Morgan, who
had relatives in Terrell county, and
was known to many readers of The
News. The Edison paper says:
"The death of Mr.. Clifford Aycock,
one of Morgan's most highly res
Dected young men, which occurred
Sunday afternoon, seem to be shroud-
ed in mystery, as it is said no clue
could be ascertained that would re-
veal the cause of his sudden taking
away.
at seems that he had been to
New Light church and was on his
way home alone in an automobile
when death overlook him. When first
found by parties passing he was still
sitting at the steering wheel of his
car in an unconscious condition, the
car having turned out of the road
and stopped, but no signs of wreck
having occurred or any bruises on
the person of the young man could
be found. A physician was hurried
Ey called and the young man was car
Fied home, but lived only a few
hours, never regaining consciousness
.Or speaking after he was found. It
rs thought by some that he must
have been suddenly seized by an
attack of appoplexy or some similar
trouble, as friends who talked with
him before leaving the church say
he seemed then to be we'll and made
no complaint.
"The deceased was about % years
of age, and was a son of Mr.. Pomp
Aycock of near Morgan, and was
well liked by all who knew him. He
is survived by his parents and nine
brothers and sisters"

This Fetching Way of Arranging Your

IL is new idea now among obsery-

long runner for the square or oblong
table. with enough large and small

sides. OF course both ends of the ta-
ble are covered by the runner, an ex-
eellent idea when part of tfle meal is
served from the table instead Of from

While this arrangement is especially
appropriate for the oblong table. II can
be used for. the square, oval or round
table with some modification In the
square table the symmetry is often
better preserved by two runners cross
ing I'm the middle In the oval or round
table the ugly line where the runner
falls over the rounded edge is done
away with by cutting the runner.
rounding the edge to fit the table and
setting on the end 10 fit with Il fine
seam or bit of beading. This ar
rangement means that the runner could
be used only for the one size of table,
bat II is worth the trouble.
Square hemstitched dollies with a
simple corner motif are used with the
plain hemstitched runner. Ii is good
plan to make plate doilies aud napkins
of tile same size and decoration, so
that II one gives out the other may
