A King Worth While. He rode on the observation plat form of a cotton wagon. His fleecy staple had just brought 12 cents per pound. The money was down in his pocket. No man had a:i account against him of a dime. The mules trotted along over the smooth pavement and his wagon was well filled with things needed for the family larder. A neat bundle over in the cor ner contained a dress pattern, ten yards of blue checked gingham for the faithful wbfe. The little bag was full of candy for the baby. He whistled as Pete and Buck turned their heads homeward. It was near eventide; a few ciouds had gathered over in th west and the sun was cutting strange capers with these billow’s of the sky. There were islands of gold float ing in a deep blue sea; there were mountains kissed w ith the colors of the rainbow; no painter could have made a prettier picture; no dreamer could have visited a scene more splended in all the mysteri ous realm of slumberland. The occupant of the wagon en joyed it. The fresh evening breezes were as balm to his brow. There was no enmity in his heart against anyone. There was no political ambition that had gone unsatisfied. There w’as no arrow of ingrati tude to stick, sting and poison. He w'as a plain country man. He loved his wife. He loved his baby. He was going home to them —a king wearing a royal crown of kindness —a king, tender, thought ful, affectionate, bearing simple gifts to his subjects. —Jackson (Miss.,) News.

Farmer Suffered for Over Twenty years and Paid Out Thousands. “ My father has suffered from chronic stomach trouble for over 20 years and has paid out thou sands of dollais on medicines and doctors,” said G. W. Slayton, a well-known Cobb county farmer, who lives near Smyrna, a short distance out of Atlanta. “We tried nearly everything trying to cure him, and he went off to the srpings, thinking maybe the water would help him, but it just looked like nothing would reach his trouble. Then he tried dieting, and lived on liquid food until he almost starved —but even that failed to do any good, and he just kept going from bad to worse. “1 don’t guess there ever was a case as stubborn as his, and if there ever was a confirmed dys peptic he was one of them, and I guess he would have been one yet if it hadn’t been for this Tanlac. “The first we heard of this med icine was when my father saw an advertisement in the papers from parties he knew in Tennessee, who w’ere friends of his, and he knew what they said about it was the truth—so he got it right away and began taking it. “Well, sir, it acted just like magic—and everybody notices the change in father now —why, he is just like a different man, and sits down to the table and eats like a farm hand. Only yesterday, he ate pork and turnips for his din ner, and ate so much we were ac tually afraid he overdoing the thing, but he laughed and said nothing hurt him now, and*that he was hungry and expected to eat and make up for lost time. “Now, when a medicine will do things like that, I think people ought to know about it, and I want to say right now that 1 would not give one bottle of Tanlac for : all the other medicines and health resorts in the country put to | gether.” — Tanlac is sold exclusively in Mc- Donough by the McDonough Drug Co; in Hampton, Ga., by H.
