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 A FTI DO YOU WANT?

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. S. B. BI RR, Sb, Barnesville, Ga.
