 The property when first acquired, had small hoisting plant, which now gives way to one capable of reaching great depth since exploration prac- tically establishes a property of un- limited production. An interesting matter associated with the rcviving only a few months ago of the Home stead Is that it was first active in the eos, its product being free milling, which was worked in an arrastra on the ground. The zone where the rich shoot was hit is in the heart of the town of Walker.

SEED MERCHANT HAS
 GAINED 19 POUNDS
A. F. Almand Says He Could Talk All Day Long About Tanlac---Feels as Well as He Ever
 Felt in His
 Life

Nearly two thousand people in Atlanta alone purchased Tanlac in one week recently. These people represented nearly every walk of life, including a great many prominent business men, and almost without exception, every one of the number had something good to say about Tanlac. Among them was MT. A. F, Almand, the well-known wholesale and retail seed and grain merchant, whose place of business is located at 271-273 Peters Street. MT. Almand is not only one of the big business men of Atlanta, but is a man of high character and strict integ- rity, and as one of his friends expressed it, His word is as good as his bond"
 Like a great many other men of affairs who stick close to busi- ness, Mr. Almand, to use his own statement, was all run down and felt the need of something to build him up. In an interest ing interview a few days ago he said:
 For more than a year I have suffered a great deal from stom- ache trouble, and was hardly ever free from indigestion. After eating l would always have gas on my stomach, and would belch up sour undigested foods.
 T also suffered from heart burn a great deal, and was ex- tremely nervous. felt like needed something to build me up, but did mot know just what l needed. I felt languid and tired outyrnost of the time. My liver was Sluggish, and I suffered a great deal from biliousness. At times I just felt like could not give my business the attention it needed.
 Like everybody else, 1 got to reading about Tanlac, and de- cided to give 1t 8 trial. Besides, l heard a great many people say it was a fine medicine, so began taking it, and by the time 1 had finished my second bottle 1 had gained 19 pounds in actual weight. Honestly, 1 could talk to you all day, and wouldn't be able to tell you how grateful feel toward this medicine. If you had seen me before 1 began talk ing it you would not believe me to be the same man.
 T have talked about the med icine so much. and looked SC much better since 1 began taking it. that lot of my customers called me -Tanlac Jack" Y" Jack is my nick name, but anyway, feel just like a new man. never suffer with heartburn and indl- gestion any more, and am not ner> ous like I was. also sleep we'll and get up in the morning feeling fine and ready for work. It is certainly a wonderful medi- cine, and my only regret IS that I did not hear of it sooner.
 Tanlac is sold in Brinkley ex- clusiyely by N. B. Converse; in Clarendon by w. E, Everett; in Holly Grove by the Holly Grove Drug Co.,; in Hunter by Hunter Drug & Mercantile Co.,; and in Zent by P. R. Anderson, and in Duncan by c. R. Gordon.

one and then another member of a
family to have a cold all winter long.
Colds are not to be trifled with, first,
because they predispcse TO so many
other diseases. They weaken the body
and decrease its resistance, making It
easy for ordinary colds to run into"
pneumonia, grip, bronchitis, rheuma.
tism or even tuberculosis. Again there
is danger OF the cold organism getting
into the blood stream and causing fe.
YER and other complications.
To prevent colds is more or less a
matter Of personal hygiene. Keep cool
and avoid people with colds are prob.
ably the two most general and safest
rules one can adopt. Temperance in
eating and drinking is also effective.
AS much of a cause OF colds as are
chilling and wetting they are not to
be compared with overheating. To pre-.
vent colds, keep out of badly ventilat.
ed rooms Rather than stand in bad.
ly ventilated room, get out on the
porch.
Dusty air causes colds. Avoid It.
Keep the body warm and dry, keep out
Of hot places. keep out of foul air and
your chances Of catching cold are very
much lessened.
