"Buy everything as cheap as you can, but never buy a cheap thing." That's a pretty good maxim for a business house to live up to. And, furthermore, you cannot do better yourself than but to make it your own rule. This principle of buying the best goods for as little money as they can be got for has made a name for us. It has made our store a safe place for men and boys. Side tracked pat terns, misfits and off colorings are never admitted here, no matter how alluring the prices.

Even though this class of goods could be worked off in our store on unsuspecting customers, it would completely ruin our trade. Your confidence of thirty years standing is not to be trifled with. It's the backbone of this business. (cAtlanta. Agents for GEO.

FULLL COMPARISON IS MADE Salaries of and Expenditures Twenty Team Ago Are Contrasted with Those Being Paid Out at the Present Time. Macon.

Ga, November 9 (Speclal.) The political opponents of the Hon Bridges Smith, candidate for reelection mayor of Macon, have been calling on him, through the local newspapers, for a statement of the financial condition of the city. In response to these demands Mr. Smith today furnished a complete statement covering the affairs of the city since 1830. showing the city to be in splendid condition from a financial standpoint. The statement shows that in 1880.

twenty years ago. the bonded debt of the city was 1683.400, with assets amounting to $111,000. At that time there was no paid fire department and water for fire protection was contained in cisterns, no hydrants. Twenty men constituted the police force. The citv was lighted by gas and there was not a foot of paved street, no curbing, guttering or sanitary The bonded debt of the city today la J6M.800, or $32,600 less than it was in 1880, and the assets amount to $640,000.

The floating debt of the city Is $173,000. There is now due the city for taxes and otherwise more than $100,000, making the floating debt about $73,000. The floating debt at the beginning of last year was $66,000 and has been Increased only $17,000 In two years The public Improvements for which the money has been spent can be seen on the streets of Macon. Mayor Smith shows that in 1871, when Hon. W.

A. Huff was mayor of the city, the mayor's salary was $2,600 per year. At that time Macon was a town of 11.000 inhabitants. During the same year the city treasurer received $2,500 for his services, whereas he only receives $3,200 now. The same year the salary of the chief of police was $2,000 per year, with a force of less than twenty officers under him.

The salary of the chief of police now Is only $1,500 per year, while the city has more than doubled in population and the police force has been trebled. Other proportionate salaries are shown in the statement. The mayor states that ttiese figures are on record and are accessible to the public at any and all Smith closes his statement with "1 am not one of those gifted with foresight few men and after an ex and pledge myself if reelected, to laoorers are affected. 1 have endeavored in the foregoing to give a full, clear and complete statement of the affairs of the cty.

November Representative business men of Chicago will appeal to President Roosevelt to recommend to congVess the creation of a department of commerce and industry, with a cabinet officer at its head. A delegation composed of members of the executive committee of the National Business League left for Washington this afternoon and will wait on the president Monday. This organisation was Instrumental in creating a sentiment in favor of this proposed reform and in behalf of the consular reform bill.

Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, will reintroduce the bill in the next session. A Bush of Youthful Criminals. There appears to be a wave of Juve nile crime sweeping over the northwest. Here in Chicago we have dally evidences of crimes committed by the merest chll The latest instance is that of Annie Thenetrous, aged 12, a pretty, black eyed girl, who was arrested for obbing Reuben Vein, aged 10, of a few pennies. Dissatisfied with the amount.

itabbed her victim. Her father was fined $6 for permitting her to become a highwayman. From Montana come the details of a kidnaping case in which a boy of 12 abducted a lad of 6 and demanded ransom of $1,500. In the letter to the boy's father the youthful captor threatened that unices the money was promptly forth coming he would put out his captive's eyes and cut off his hands. Fortunately the police swooped down upon him before he could execute the threat.

Another startling case came to light in the police courts here this week, when three lads, aged 11 and 12. were arrest ed for stealing horses. Owing to their extreme youth they bad never been ius pected'and were plying a profitable trade. It Is not Infrequent for mere children hold up their little companions and rob them of pennies. The hold up industry has bean brought to such a stags of perfection in this city that it offer? an enticing field for youths who too lazy to take up honest trades.

There been a disposition, heretofore, to consider thsso criminal pranks as aa evidence of precocity, but the authorities, have learned that It does not pay to encourage it From robbing children it to but a step to holding up men and woven, and from that to safe blowing and more serious Crimea During the year there have been at least half a dozen murders committed by mere boys, a majority of them negro newsboys, who take this desperate method, of maintaining their supposed right, to a certain street istactorily solved. The labor unions of Illinois have suggested that convicts be employed in making good roads and Keeping them In a high state of repair, and Governor Yates Is In favor of the plan. Nowhere in the United States are the roads so notoriously bad as In Illinois, where there to practically no bottom to the yielding black loam. In the spring when heavy rains are prevalent the roads become a stretch of sticky, plastic mud. which, after being churned by a few heavy wagons, to absolutely impassible to any but light vehicles.

While the state has an abundance of bad roads, it to also supplied with plenty of criminals. 'It is suggested that these convicts, now employed in many manufactures that compete with free labor, be taken out in squads and put at work in systematic building of roads, bridges, canals and other public improvements. The state might well adopt the plan, for returns would meet die outlay. Better still, it would remove the Irritating friction between prison and free labor. Under present conditions the convicts are a profit to the contracting manufacturer.

While it to true that the state gets enough out of the contractor to add largely to the support of the penal institutions, still. It injects a question into politics that must sooner or later be settled and settled in favor of free labor. Perhaps ft will be well for Illinois to first try this experiment, for If the roads In this state can be brought to any degree of perfection the question of good roads will be solved for every other state. It win also remove the serious Question of convict labor, for free men do not choose to work on the public highways. Where Vast Bonds Lie Unclaimed.

Public attention to being drawn to Ne ada, a state 37 years old. containing 71,000,000 acres of fertile soil, yet only about of 1 per cent of which to under Ninety five per cent of this splendid domain to still In the hands of the government. The climate to unsurpassed, yet wealth and population are steadily decreasing. The secret lies in the fact that the state has been In the relentless grasp of politicians and cattlemen. The ordinary settler, the little fellow who desired to set up a modest home, has been frozen out.

During the last twelve months there have been but nineteen homestead filings accredited to Nevada out of the 68,000 or more recorded in the general land office at Washington from the public land these years, but the turning point has been reached. The federal government will resume Jurisdiction over all available public lands, create a new water supply sad Invite actual settlers to come Into the state. The evil of non resident senators will be a polished and the people of this aesdectod stats wtli have a voice Digests what you Eat Dyspepsia Cure lie National Disease. If there is any disease entitled to such a distinction it Is certainly dyspepsia. It is safe to say that not one person in ten enjoys the blessings of perfect digestion, strange though it may seem.

Why is this? Digestion is a slow process by which nature transforms the food into a state suitable for nourishment for the body. The time required varies from one to six hours or more, according to the food. In the hurry, worry and hustle, the striving for the almighty dollar, the 20th century American fails to give proper heed to nature's demands upon his time. He gets up in the morning, bolts his breakfast without half chewing it, washes It down with hot coffee or other liquid and rushes off to his business. At noon, it's rush home or to the lunch counter, eat his lunch hastily while fatigued and out of breath, then rush back to business.

One of the greatest essentials to proper digestion is the mastication or chewing of food, to thoroughly mix it with saliva If this is not done, the food passes into the stomaefarin a condition which does not permit of its being acted upon by the gastric juices there, even though there be sufficient of these juices. With the body fatigued and continually in action, the blood is drawn away from the digestive organs, hence the digestive fluids cannot be supplied. Naturally this leaves a lot of undigested food in the stomach that is not only useless but harmful. Now what is to be done? It must be digested: A little stimulant might help it temporarily, but that makes the next meal still more difficult to digest, as it draws on the digestive juices unnaturally and soon exhausts them. The only correct, common sense way of treating these cases is to furnish a substitute, which mast, in order to be effectual, contain exactly the same elements in exactly the same proportions as the natural digestive fluids.

The one preparation which can be absolutely proven to meet these requirements is Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It is not an experiment at your expense but the result of experiments at our expense. It is not a mere stimulant to aid digestion, but is itself a combination of all the diges tarns and actually digests the food by its own individual powers of action without any aid whatever from the digestive organs. It will digest food even in a bottle under proper conditions, temperature, etc, so it certainly can't help having the same action In the swuiacu. By digesting the food without aid and preparing it perfectly for nature's uses in nourishing the body, it gives the digestive organs a rest.

By relieving them of all work, nature has an opportunity to restore them to healthy condition. Furthermore, you should eat all the good food your appetite calls for while taking Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, because your body must have nourishment and in no way can it get it except through the food. While the army of people is large who suffer continually from dyspepsia, there is a still greater army of those who are troubled only occasionally, caused by overeating, eating when fatigued, eating when too warm or cold, drinking ice water, especially just before, with, or just after a meal, or eating some article of food that does not agree with them. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure not only instantly relieves all distress of the stomach, that feeling of fullness, flatulence, (wind on the stomach) belching, rising of asour, watery liquid In the mouth and all other results of a disordered stomach bnt it is an absolute, positive and permanent cure for all forms of indigestion, dyspepsiaand stomach troubles. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure Is a remedy of unusual merit and will bear out every claim Eat all the good food you want.

I have been troubled for several years with dyspepsia and Indigestion. I hare often sat down to eat and bad to give It up after eating two bites. I used two bottles of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure and am all right to day. and I eat everything and don't stop for anything. I recommend Kodol Dyspepsia Cure to all my friends as the beat medicine for dyspepsia and stomach trouble.

Chicagoans Can Spank Their Wives. Judge Chetlaln, of the Chicago circuit bench, has decided, that a husband may spank his wife once without laying himself liable to a divorce. Mrs. Anna V. Harris, a comely young woman, appeared before him, charging her husband with extreme and repeated cruelty and asking for a divorce.

She said: "I approached my husband one evening to caress him. He was cross, however. and pushed me away, saying that he no longer loved ma I burst Into tears. He then Dushed me throuah the door and spanked me with his hand. I had my night dress on at the time.

I felt very much hurt" how her husband had pinched her. thrown water on her and called her names.
