STATE HAS NO CLAIM 1
ON TALLULAH FALLS
State Supreme Court Rules
That State Granted
Title Legally.
Atlanta, Ga., Dee. 13.—1 n a
decision handed down today the
State Supreme Court has finally
settled the litigation over Tallu
lah Falls, deciding that good title
to the property rests in the
Georgia Railway and Power Co.
and that the state has no claim
to the falls or any of the sur
rounding property.
This decision brings to an end
the long fight made by' Mrs.
Helen D. Longstreet of Gaines
ville and others in the eliort to
take the falls away from the
power company in order that
they they might be preserved for
their natural beauty. The land
in dispute covers 258.4 acres of
land in Tallulah river gorge lying
partly in Habersham and partly
in Rabun counties.
The Supreme Court holds that
the Georgia acts of 1818 and 1819
designated the limits of those
counties and legalized the survey
of their territory into lots and
the granting of those lots.
Ideal Christmas Gift.
“Out-of doors” with a Stevens
is the best developer for a grow
ing boy. Learning to shoot well
and acquiring qualities of self
control, decision and manliness
are the invariable results of a
Stevens Firearm education.
Particular attention is called to
Stevens Little Scout, Favorite
and Visible Loading Repeating
Rifles. Progressive dealers car
ry Stevens firearms in stock and
can supply individuals at attrac
tive prices. Insist on Stevens
when purchasing—there are no
substitutes. These guns -and
rifles are made in all sizes
gauge s —c alibres—weights,
lengths, etc.
Send to the J. Stevens Arms &
Tool Company, Chicopee Falls,
Mass., for their new general fire
arm catalogue No. 53. This em
bodies detailed descriptions and
furnishes the most complete
number of Christmas suggestions
in the firearm line.
There is no more suitable or
appropriate present than a fa
mous Stevens Rifle, Shotgun or
Pistol. These well known fire
arms have been on the market
since 1864, are guaranteed in
every way and universally con
ceded to be the best at popular
prices.
Remember—when securing
your gifts for the Merry Yule-
Tide Season—a Stevens Rifle or
Shotgun makes a man of your
boy and no mollycoddle.
Has Big Hogs.
Speaking of hogs, Mr. H. .T.
Carson has just killed two that
were fine specimens. The two
largest weighed respectively 595
and 590 pounds and some of the
others was almost as large. The
first of these measured 6ft. 10
long, 3 ft. 5 in. high; while the
second measured 6 ft. 6 in. long,
3 ft. 2 in. high, 5 ft. 6 in. front
girth and 5 ft. 4 in. hind girth.—

A Natural Inference.
A School-teacher wa3 reading
a story to a class of very small
folks, and paused at the words
“lay brother,” to explain their
meaning. “Does any one know
what ‘lay brother’ means?” she
asked.
For a moment a row of per
plexed little faces looked up at
her. Then one face brightened
suddenly, and a small voice pin
ed, “Yes, ma’am—it’s a rooster!”

Thousands in Apples.
The enormous growth of the i
apple industry in Washington,
Idaho, and other Northwestern
states was demonstrated at the j
recent convention of the North i
Pacific Fruit Distributors at
Spokane. One thousand cars of
apples for future delivery were
sold through the association for
a total price of approximately
four million dollars. The cars
approximated one thousand dol
lars each. One car of Wenatchee
apples in New York brought two
thousand dollars. It consisted of
Winter Bananas, Jonathans,
King Davids, and Grimes’ Gol
dens. All the one thousand-dol
lar ears averaged from $1.35 to
$2 a box f. o. b. shipping point.
The Northwest apple crop for
1913 is estimated at seventy-five
hundred cars, or about four mil
lion five hundred thousand boxes.

N It Always Helps M
gfe-,!! says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in
writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman’s
ptp tonic. She says further: “Before 1 began to use Oil
Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I
thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able
Bga to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, I began to feel like a new woman. I soon
gained 35 pounds, and now, Ido all my housework, IwS
as well as run a big water mill.
1 wish every suffering woman would give
E CARDUI B
key The Woman’s Tonic hgjj
, a trial. I still use Cardui when 1 feel a little bad,
gQf and it always does me good.”
pSH Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness,
tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman-
Igf ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman’s
rT] tonic. You cannot make a mistake in trying Cardui i!
for your trouble. It has been helping weak, ailing jp' *j
women for more than fifty years.
