i Deal Jackson holds the record for
the earliest bale of cotton marketed

Indictments Nol Pressed.
The last indictment against Hall¬
man hints, convicted of embezzlement
has been nol pressed by Judge W. T.
Newman at Atlanta on motion of Dis¬
trict Attorney Angler. Therot were
in the beginning el event indictments
pending against Sims. He plead
guilty in one case and now the re.
inaining ten have been wiped out by

pacity he found opportunity to make
away with many thousands of dollars.
He plead guilty when arraigned in
fbe United States district court, and
was sentenced by Judge Newman to
,s;x years in the federal penitentiary.
He is now serving that sentence.

Plumber Gets Heavy Fine.
tVith a reprimand that staggered
h \i and almost threw him off his
feet. H. T. O'Shields, a plumber, was j
fined $50.75 in each of two cases
of disorderly conduct by Recorder j
Broyles of Atlanta police court.
O'Shields was charged with assault¬
ing. without provocation, two negro j
men on the street and knocking
them down.
This fine is among the heaviest ever
imposed by the recorder for a case of i
disorderly conduct. O'Shiolds is a
tal:. well-built man. weighing prob¬
ably 225 pounds, and he gives every
indication of being an unusually pow¬
erful man.
To the fine Judge Broyles added a
severe reprimand, declaring he wish
e\I O Shie .Vs had struck larger men
and received physical punishment.
The condition of the patient remains un
changed. The Stomach, Liver and Bowels
have not been stimulated and in a few
days a stronger purgative may have to be
taken. This is why Pills and Aperient
Waters never give permanent relief,
Their violent action results in an unnat
ural movement of the bowels and it is nec
essary to keep taking them indefinitely.
Why ORINO is different.
Orino La^tive Fruit syrup is the only
preparation **|kat really really acts upon all
of th# digestive organs. Other prepar
ati<0#ct upon the lower bowel only and
do not touch the Liver. It can very read
i ily be seen that a preparation that does
