The Sickest Man is Not Always in Bed, LIGHT VOTE POLLED
The meanest kind of sickness is just to be able
to attend to duties and yet not reel equal to the task.
The eternal grind keeps many in the traces who
ought to be in bed.
A thorough course of Johnson’s Chill and Fever
Tonic would give a new lease on life to such people.
It tones up the the whole digestive apparatus. Puts
the Liver in the best condition possible. Gives a
splendid appetite. Renews strength and restores
vitality.

Dea k Si h Some years ago I operated a Hoat-
lug saw-imll on the .Savannah River. My base of
operations was )x*ing constantly changed, and my
hands were always exposed to the worst malarial
influences. I employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out of it. For this reason, in August and Septem
ber there was great loss of time and business, on
account of sickness among the workers.
My attention was then called to Johnson’s Chill
and Fever Tonic, and I determined to give the
medicine a trial. I procured it, and those who
were sick were put on this treatment, and those who
were feeling badly were at once given the Tonic.
In a short time every one of the one hundred hands
was weU and reported for duty; and from that time
on I used nothing else but Johnson’s Tonic, and
never had another case of fever.
Yours very truly,
J. R. LASSITER.

Good Clothes Exhibit.
Everyman who reads this should
come and see the array of good wear
ables we have ready for men of all
ages and sizes. The special feature
just now is our display of fine fall
clothing—suits and overcoats,-from
the famous shops of
Hart Schaffner & Marx.
You know this celebrated cloth
ing, at least by reputation; thous
ands know it by actual use as
the best clothing in the world, ready
to wear. You will find the
STYLE, FIT AND QUALITY
of the clothing we can show you equal to the best
custom tailoring; as good clothes as any man, how-
ever particular, can ask for, or get, anywhere.
The low prices are an inducement, but the real
reason for buying here is what you get, rather than
what you pay. Better try on one of these suits or
overcoats, you will say there’s nothing better made.
The store is full of other good things, might as|
well see ’em ail.

Both Houses Will Get Down to Bust-
nsss This Week.
Atlanta, Nov. 3 —Now that tb#
Standing committees of both house
and senate have been appointed and
organised, the legislature will get
down to business this week. Some
thing like 200 bills and resolution*
have already been Introduced in tha
house and' referred to appropriate coin,
mittees. which will have about all
they can do this week getting these
measures In shape and reporting them
back for a second reading, or, if the
report Is adverse, for such action ns
the house may see fit to take.
One-halt tbe measures introduced
so far are purely local; perhaps even
more of them apply only to particular
sections or communities of the state.
All of these except where there may
be a local factional fight will bo re
ported back favorably and passed with
out discussion.
Many of the general bills introduced
will have hard fighting for life, while
others will die from adverse report
The legislature has given pretty fair
Indication of its composition; It is con
servative throughout, and It Is evi
dent that radical legislation will havo .
a hard time fighting Its way to tho-
statute books.
So far no really new general legis
lation has been proposed in either
house. Practically every general bill
of any consequence introduced so far
Is a counterpart of or similar to some
measure that wak before the legisla
ture last year or tho year before. The
same amendments to tht constitution
that were proposed last year and which
were thoroughly discussed before m
joint committee of the bouse and sen
ate, are now finding their way before
s Joint committee of the bouse and
senate, are now finding their way be
fore both bodies. Thta year, however,
these proposed constitutional amend
ments will be considered by the regu
lar standing committees of both bouses
and reported on separately and In reg.
alar order. There will be no Joint
committee as last year, when It was
found that this committee's work oc
cupied so much time that it was Im
possible at the close of the session
to give the proposed amendments prop
er consideration.
There are some new measures on
educational subjects, and a bill to pre-
vent bribery in primary elections which
will doubtless receive serious consid
eration. However, tho session ban
only begun, and many other measures
of Interest will doubtless appear in
the course of the next week or two.
