Is that all you want? It is not all that you can get. T & P Stomach Tablets contain the best digestive agents. These digest the food; but if this was all they would not and could not cure you. They have combined with these digestive ier inents tonics that act directly on the organs of digestion, and laxatives that regulate tlie liver and bowels, putting the system in condition to perform its own work. This means that if you will half way take care of vour stomach a cure is certain. T & P STOMACH TABLETS are for sale by all druggists. 30 cents a box. Taylor & Peek Drug Co., Macon, Ga.

For some time past the conduct of drunken men on Saturdays in Ab beville Las beeii growing worse and last Saturday the profane language was a disgrace to any civilized com munity. It is high time that this thing of using profane and obscene language was stopped. Neither a lady nor a decent man, can of late, walk the streets of Abbeville on Saturlr.y right withou tbeing shock? ed by the profanity of white as well as negro men, If there is any dif ference the white men are worse than the negroes. It is as much the marshal’s duty lo make cases again st these people for cursing on the streets as it to make cases against those who engage in lighting In fact, his duty in the former is great er— for there is absolutely no cause for cursing while there may be some cause lor fighting. If the marshal will not try to stop this disgraceful conduct, which cer tain people are guilty of nearly every Saturday night, some frequently during the week, by making night hideous with their yells, loud pro fane swearing and discharging of fire arms, by making cases against them, let him resign or let the Council re move him and elect a man who will, The Chronicle is satisfied that the Mayor will do his duty if the cases are brought before him.
