THE CAUSE OF
DYSPEPSIA.
Loss of Vitality Known to be the Parent of this Dread
Disease—The Method of Cure tha! Has
Proved Most Successful.
l-'i ovi the Jiepubtican, Scranton, Jf nna.
The most common of all human ailments ■
i» derang'd digestion: the most aggravating
disease, inherited by man, dyspepsia. In
sidiotu in its nature, varied in its forms it
tortures its victims, baffles the skill of phy
sicians and the power of medicine.
The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack of
vitality; the absence of nerve force; the loss (
of the life-sustaining elements of the blood. I
It is a truism that no organ can properly
perform its function when the source of
nutriment fails; when it is weakened on one
hand and over-taxed on the other. When
the stomach is robbed of the nourishment
demanded by nature, assimilation ceases un
natural gases are generated, the entire sys
tem responds to the discord.
A practical illustration of the symptoms
and torture'of dyspepsia is furnished by the
case of Joseph T. Vandyke, 440 Hickory St.,
Scranton, Pa.
In telling his story Mr. Vandyke says:
“Five years ago, I was afflicted with a
trouble of the stomach, which was very
aggravating. I had no appetite, could not
enjoy myself at any time, and especially
was the trouble severe when I awoke in the
morning. I did not know what, the ailment
was, but it became steadily worse and I was
in constant misery.
“I called in my fkmily physician, and he
diagnosed the cn.se as catarrh of the stomach.
He prescribed for me and I had his prescrip
tion filled. I took nearlv all of the medi
cine, but. still the trouble became worse,
and I felt that my condition was hopeless.
My friends recommended various proprie
tary remedies, some of them among the best

i in the market, but I tried several of them
I without receiving benefit. After I had been
I suffering several months, aud had secured
no relief from any of the many remedies
! which I had taken, a friend of mine, by the
name of Thomas Campbell, also a resident
I of this city, urged me to try J’r. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People. I told him it
; would be a useless waste of money to buy
I them, as I was convinced that nothing could
I do me any good.
' “I was finally persuaded to buy a box
I and began to use the pills according to
directions. Before I had taken the second
box I began to feel relieved, and after taking
a few more boxes I considered myself re
stored to health. The pills gave me new
life, strength, ambition and happiness.”
An unfailing specific is found in Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills for Pale People for such
diseases ns locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis,
St. Vitus’ dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheuma
tism, nervous headache, the after enect of la
grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and
sallow complexions, that tired feeling result
ing from nervous prostration, all diseases re
sulting from vitiated humors in the blood,
such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They
are also a specific for troubles peculiar to
females, such as suppressions, irregularities
and all forms of weakness. In men they effect
a radical cure in all cases arising from mental
worry, overwork or excesses of whatever
nature. These pills are manufactured by the
. I Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Schenectady,
N. Y., and are sold only in boxes bearing the
firm's trade-mark and wrapper at 50 cents a
. box or six boxes for $2.50, and are never sold
in bulk. They may be had of all druggistx.
LAND POOR.
A Schima to Give Every Man a
Farm, by a Person Who is
Land Poor.
Mk. Editok : Home years ago I took an
idea that land was the safest investment
that a man could make in Georgia, and as
a consequence, I am now land poor; have
more than 1 can profitably make use of,
and consequently want to get rid of some,
or all of it, and 1 have decided to adopt
the following measure to get rid of it:
I will say,in the first place, that the
land is the best in Monroe county, is fine
ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat
tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for
cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains
in the county. There are a number of
tenant houses on the place, and a home
recently built that cost me over SB,OOO to
build. The land, in the first place, cost
me from $25 down to $4 per aero—saying
altogether, about $lO per acre, without
improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will
average the whole place at $lO per acre,
in the following way : I will have the
entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into
50-acrc lots, at $lO per acre, giving more
than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and
less than 50 t > another, according to his
ability to pay for it, as the case may be,
the entire quantity tob ■ drawn for.
In other words, the number of lots and
quantity of land to be put in a hat or box,
and drawn out under approval of a com
mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time,
so that all shall have a fair chance to get a
home at a low price, and no one has a
chance of losing their m mey, or failing to
get their value, as paid, and some get a
farm at. far less than cost
The land is 12 miles fn a Macon, a city
of some 50,000 er 00,000 people, and is
adapted to market gardening, and for
northern people who know how to work,
it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of
energetic citizens.
It is all together, and would make a fine
settlement, having the best of pastures,
water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is
timbered with hickory, beach, oak and
pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best
place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed
itor of the Call will vouch for what I
say.
I would be glad to have any parties who
mean business, to go over the plantation,
familiarize themselves with the advan
tages, and communicate with me at
Barnesville, before going into the matter,
assuring them that I mean what I say.
In addition to the. terms offered above, I
have concluded to make the terms of pay
ment in four annual payments without
interest, which is tantamount to putting
the price of tlius>Jand very low, The
titles to the land have been in the posses
sion oi one or two parties for years, and
have ni Ver lien qiieAfone'l and areas
go d as gold.
I am nut particularly wedded tn this
plan of getting ri'l of m\‘lands, but only
suggest the idea—any better plan wotilil
be thaakful'y substituted.
