Answer-The decline In Swift Inter

What Do You
Think Of This

| A solicitor from another county
was in our city the first of the
week and in soliciting one of
our leading concerns, secured a
contract to print the Telephone
EDirectors from the Dixie Tele-
phone Co., at a smaller bid than
our local concerns would have
printed it for.
Now,the Dixie Telephone Com
pany is concern composed, of
local men who we. thought be-.
lieved in patroniSing home in
dustry, and were working for
the upbuilding of Tracy City and
community, but alas we are
doomed to disappointment as
the difference in a few dollars
show to the public that they
are for self alone. Now. the
Dixie Telephone Co., raised
their rates recently for telephone
service saving that they could
not give us service at a cheaper
price and the public footed the
bill and said nothing, but when
the local printers had to raise
their prices atrlittle higher on
the printing-of their Telephone
Directories, who6pee, Nav, we
will send .it,out Of. the county
to a cheap house to. have it
printed. We leave this for the
considerations Of the public to
think over.

nation Of chronic dyspeptics and
rheumatics.
"Our forefathers gave us two
things first, a glorious land
with unlimited resorces and
opportunities; second, a sound
constitution with good, healthy
digestive organs. We fought to
keep the first intact and free,
but we're letting the second 90
to ruin.
"The amount OF half chewed,
hastily eaten food the average
person stuffs into himself dur
ing the day is positively wicked. \
Then, when he feels dull and
nervous he wonders what's the
matter and lmagines he has
heart trouble, or insomnia, or
goodness knows what. There is
just one thing the matter with
him. He has abused the one
organ of his body which is most
essential to good health---the
! stomach---and until the gastric
juices in his stomach perform
their functions as they should,
all the doctors and medicines in
the world will not make him
well and robust.
the other day a man well
known over this section came
to me and said: From what a
friend tells me about your medi-
cine, Puratone | think it will
help me. AT least | am willing
to give it a trial. But, suppos-
ing it does get my stomach in
shape, how long will it last2' 1
simply said: If you begin TAX

Larger Paper


Dear Sir: .:...
The writer, a stranger to you,
wishes to take this opportunity
to congratulate you upon the in
crease in price and improve
ment in your paper. The home
paper is like a movie show to
to those in other parts of the
world and it goes without saying
that the addition of another reel
is greatly appreciated. As a
town is always judged by it's
newspaper the business men of
the community should support
the paper by advertising in it and
the consumers should be taught
to buy from the advertiser. In
these days of, -. high prices for
material and labor paper can
not EXIT on subscriptions alone.
1t would appear to one on the
outside that the Stevens Garage,
Tidman Mere; Co.. Tracy City
Auto Co. and one or two others
are doing all the business in
Tracy Oity. According to my
way Of thinking they are certain
ly entitled to it. In wide a
wake progres sive community the
advertisers are always the most
successful, the most prosperous
and the most reliable merchants
The large metropolitan papers
have all discontinued the

ment. 1t is now q we'll known
fact that Lydia E. Pinkhams

do great amount of injury to

tisements from merchants in ad

THE letter is not written for
publication nor is it written in a
spirit of criticism but is merely
the thoughts of one who has had
opportunity to. make compari-
sons. 1t was prompted bV your

Pomeroy Told Well-Known
Southerner He Was Living
Like A fool AS Far AS His
Stomach Was Concerned

John Pomeroy, the remarkable
New Zealander, who is now visit
ing Nashville and attracting SO
much attention bv his novel
theories. thinks that cigilized
man lacks common sense. Po-
merov claims that most i'll
health is due to stomach disord-
ers, caused by improper living
and eating. When seen at his
Nashville headquarters, he said !:
..While modern conditions
have aheap to do with people
being sicklylooking, tired, thin
and pale all the time, lack Of
using common sense can be blam-
ed equally as much.
sit is impossible always to
lead the active outdoor life
nature demands. 1t is impossible
for many to exercise the body
| sufficiently to make the gastric
Juices wholly active and yirile.
1t is impossib e to spend as much
time as we should in the fresh
air and sunshine. But it is pos
sible to treat the stomach, al.
ready weakened by these ais
takes, with at least a little con
sideration.
''If people thought half az
| much of their stomachs as the,
do their pocketbooks, there
wouldn't be so much sickness!
here.
"If we would sit down qultel,
to a plain, common sense meal
eat slowly, and chew every
mouthful thoroughly, and ther
| give 1T time to digest and be
assimilated into the blood tt
