FIRST NEGRO SLAIN ON
WILLIAMS FARM FOUND

MONTICELLO, Nov. 9.-The body
of 'Ironjaw," the first of the alleged
thirteen negro poems to meet their
deaths on the Jasper horror farm"
has been unearthed. The body, of
which only the skeleton remained,
was found near the banks of a pond
near the home of John S. Williams.
The excessive dry weather causing
the water in the pond to recede far
below its normal state resulted in
the body being found with iron chains
and weights attached. Jasper au-
thorities stated it was impossible to
identify the skeleton, but that they
believe it to be that of "Ironjaw," al
legged to have been killed by Williams
sons, Marvin, Leroy and Huland Will
hams, now under Indictment for muir
der, but who have been missing since
a short time after the first bodies
were found on the Williams farm.
John S. Williams is now in the
Fulton county Jail where he is serv-
ing a life sentence.

People all over Georgia, from Ra-
bun Gap to Tybee Light, began tax
ing Tanac and testifying to its great
ness as a medicine. Before long Tan
lac had become a household word in
every city, town, village and hamlet
in the state and the manufacturers
were taxed to keep the druggists sup
piled with enough Tanlac to meet the
enormous demand.
The popularity Of Tanlac contin-
ued to grow from year to year as new
tests Of its powers were made by the
people, until now the sales in Geor-
gia alone have reached the phenome-
nal total of 1882 bottles, which is
at the rate of $4,000 bottles a year,
or over 1000 bottles of Tanlac sold
every working day to the people of
Georgia. Such a phenomenal demand
for medicine is absolutely without
a parallel. Nothing like it has ever
been seen before, but the reason for
it is very simple and it can all be
explained in one word-merit.
Contrary to popular opinion, there
is no great mystery about Tanlac, eX-
cept in so far as the chemistry OF
the human body itself and what it
does with substances taken into it, is
a mystery. Some of the ingredients
Of TanIac have been known and used
as medicines for centuries. Others
are of more recent discovery, but ev-
cry one Of them is of recognized the
raputic value and used by the medi-
cal profession everywhere. Tanlac is
simply a co-mingling of these medici-
nal elements in a way hitherto un-
known and which brings out their Gu
rative and reconstructiVe powers to a
most remarkable degree
Briefly, it allays irritation of the
stomach, strengthens the digestive
and assimilatVe organs, builds up and
reyitalizes the whole system, and
gives the body new powers of resist,

ance and strength. Gratifying gains
in weight are not uncommon espe-
cially where person has suffered
from embarrassment brought on
by dyspepsia, Indigestion, illness, OPP
Grafton or other causes.
1t is a demonstrated fact in mcdi-
cal science that the stomach is the
starting point of most of the ills that
afflict the human body, and many Of
the so-called diseases are not diSeas
es at all, but reflex symptoms of the
stomach arrangements and the weak
ened conditions of the body that
naturally follows. Some kinds of
rheumatism, gastritis, palpitation,
nervousness, kidney disorders and liV-
er complaints are among the more
common troubles developed through
the stomach. Scores of other dis
eases have been traced to the same
source.
Tanlac was made especially to
overcome these stomach complaints
and the various so-cail2d diseases
and symptoms that follow them, but
the astonishing reconstructive powers
revealed by it have not only astonish-
ed the general public, but have some
what surprised even the originators
Of the medicine themselves. Thous-
ands Of letters reach the Tanlac Of
fices from all parts of North Ameri-
ca telling Ct remarkable results de
rived by people who have suffered
for years without being able hereto
fore to find relief.
Naturally t h csc remarkable
achievements have spread the fame
Of Tanlac to all quarters of the CONT

cessitated working the laboratories
night and day.

MORGAN HEADS
Fl. MEADE BOARD
Development Organization Is
Launched In Florida Town
Under Ex-Americus Man

A development board has just been
organized at Fort Meade, Fla, at the
suggestion and undC~ the impetus OF
a former Americas citizen, L. A.
Morgan, now a resident of that city.
Organization was formed for the pur
pose Of developing farm lands about
Fort Meade and taking care of far
mers from Georgia, Alabama and 9TH
er states seeking to locate in Florida.
The board contemplates either selling
farm lands which it is to locate, on
basis Of 10 per cent, or lease land
for a term of years to enable a new
conner to investigate conditions be
fore buying. The plan was launched
with capital stock Of $4,000, at
$40 per share, of which 1870 shares
were subscribed in ten minutes q the
organization meeting. At the next
meeting the amount was increased
to 500 shares or $4,000 stock, all Of
which was taken in Is minutes, The
organization Immediately went to
work under the direction of corps
Of enthusiastic officers, Mr.. Morgan
being elected general manager. Most
Of the subscriptions were for ten
shares each.
""The corporation was founded on
the principles of selling, leasing, or
renting land to a farmer who has
sufficient funds to see himself
through two crops, which means that
he should have $4,000 before attempt
ing to farm in the correct way" says
the announcement. "There will be
square dealing and fair play in all the
transactions and no cut-throat bust
ness as is done in some land compa-
MES now selling land in Florida. The
Fort Meade Developing Board wants
.Batisf "a farmers and the only way
to G 4 them is to treat them right
and See that they are not swindled
in ,he purchase of the right kind of
farming lands"
The Fort Meade Leader, telling of
the organization meeting, said of Mr..
Morgan's part in it: "..~-.'
Il. A. Morgan, the founder of the
plan and who is a Georgian himself, |
enjoying prosperity in the land Of
flowers, spoke of the system in or
ganization and defined several waysl
to perfect this organization in me
way that would make it success
and benefit our fellowman, the far
mer, and at the same time make the
organization self-supporting. He
emphasized the Importance of treat
ing the prospective farmer and new
conner squarely and see that he gets
a square deal at all times"
