How many ““ refunds ”’ were there, do you think? Less than two percent. In other words, Vinol did successful work in ninety-eight cases out of 100. For two great classes, those who can’t seem to gain strength, and those who are tired at nothing, we say: “Try Vinol on our guarantee.” BELL BROS, Druggists. Methodist cnurch by W. W, Lac drum, D.

The silk-worm culture inaugurated by Louis B. Magid at Tallulah Falls has brought Dr. L. O. Howard, ento mologist of the United States depart ment of agriculture, to Georgia for a few days. He came to see just what had been done at Tallulah Falls. Dr. Howard is a distinguished scien tist, and has complete charge of the silk-worm experiments now being con ducted under the auspices of the de-1 partment of agriculture. Secretary Wilson is much interested in seeing what can be done with this inaustry in the United States, and as a con sequence Dr. Howard is devoting a large part of his time to the subject. He speaks enthusiastically of the Tallulah Falls venture. He says: “Mpr. Magid has oyer 3,000 acres set in mulberry trees, which before so very long will be ready to receive the silk-worms. He is thoroughly familar with silk culture, and the department of agriculture is both interested in what he is doing and anxious to see him make a success of .it. He, you know, has gone into the busices3 on his own hook.” A DESTRUCTIVE WIND. A Store House Wrecked and Other Damage Done at Edison. From the Calhoun CQ\l[’iL‘". A heavy wind and rain storm passed a mile or so west of here last Sunday afternoon, blowing down considerable timber for a distance of two or three miles, when the wind seemed to rise above the earth and little damage was done until it reached Edison. At lidison the destruction of the storm was more serious, and one of the strange freaks characteristic of cvclones was uoticable. The wind dipped down in one spot forty or fifty yards square, lifting the residence of Mrs. ;Massey oft the pillar and wrecking the store of Mr. Dick Hollo way, and rose again and passed on. The store of Mr. Holloway was com pletely demolished, goods of all kinds being scattered along the route of the wind for a distance of two miles or more. Many of the goods were after ward recovered, but they were in a badly damaged condition. Mr. Hollo way’s loss will amount to $l2OO or 31500. Due Notice Is Served.

From the Savannah Press. The bill which the Audubon society desires the Georgia legislature to pass is pretty much the same that has been adopted by 19 states and has stood the test of the courts. The bill is for the protection of non-game birds, a spe cies comprising over 80 per cent of the bird life. These are made up of water birds and nearly all of the song, ino sectivorous and beneficial birds. The law provides protection for the nest and eggs of non-game birds. In protecting non-game birds hawks, crows, blackbirds and ricebirds are not included. The restrictions will prevent the trafic of mockingbirds. which are caugh and shipped else where, but such a bird may be caged as a domestic pet. Under this law it shall be unlawful to shoot larks and doves at any time. This was the bill originally intro duced last year, but it is changed and merged into another bill and seems to have been unsatisfactory. One bill by Mr. Rainey of Terrell was for the pro tection of bull bats. This was ou a line with the general object of the Audubon society. It is found that the bull bats, or night hawks, are very useful in destroying insects like mos quitoes, gnats and flying ants, grass hoppers and beetles. The bull pat is a useful bird, It hardly pays to kill them for eating, and they are general ly shot as a target for gun practice on the wing. In view of these facts it is urged tha* the custom of killing this bird, wheth er for food or sport, be given up. Itis a practice which affords very poor re turns of either and which entails great injury upon the agricultural interests. It is given out that the agricultural department is spending millions of dol lars to get rid «of insects which are ruining the cotton crop, the to bacco crop, and the cane stalks. It is estimated that the boll weeyil has in jured Texas cotton more than $50,000,- 000 in the last year. It is contended by scientific men that the increase in insect pests is largely. due to the slaughtering of birds that formerly de stroyed the insects. One of the main objzcts of killing birds is for the plumage, to be used in millinery. For this traffic thousands of ternes and seagulls are slaughtered. An appeal is made to stop the wanton killing and traffic of wild birds for plumage at once. Florida bhas such a law and wardens jJare paid by the Au dubon society to patrol the shores and to protect the nests of y water fowl, as well as to arrest the bloody work of iplumers. Farmers and fruit growers are vitally interested in these ques 'Lions. A Chattanooga Druggist's Statement, Robert J. Mil'ler, proprietor ¢f the Real House drug store of Chattanoo ga, ‘Tern., writes: ‘There is more merit in Foley's Honey and Tar than in any other cough syrup. The calls for it multiply wonderfully and we sell more of it than all othar cough syrups combined.” KENDRICK'S DRUG STORE. : He Made the Monster Pudding. ~ William H. Culiingworth, postmas ter at Richmomd during President \Cleveland's two terms, is dead at the age of 66. He was famous as the man l who made a thousand pound plum pud ding and served 1t at a banquet oo Cleveland’s first election. With the first warm days of spring you begin to feel dull, tired and worn out. It's because your blood is thick and clogged with impurities it has col lected from the body during the win ! ter. Ramon’s Liver Pills and Tonic Pellets will clear out the impurities and clean up the system. Complete treatment 25 cents. Every farmer knows that some plants grow better than others. Soil may be the same and seed may seem the same but some plants are weak and others strong. And that's the way with children. They are like young plants. Same food, same home, same care but some grow big and strong while others stay small and weak. Scott’s Emulsion offers an easy way out of the difficulty. Child weakness often means starvation, not because of lack of food, but because the food does not feed. Scott’s Emulsion really feeds and gives the child growing strength. Whatever the cause of weak ness ‘and faillure to grow— Scott’s Emulsion seems *o find it and set the matter right.

The Consumption Averages Two Bushels for Each Person. The people of the United States are a nation of apple eaters, and it is very well for their health that they are. Except for the good office of the apple indigestion and dyspepsia would prob ably be much more prevalent, and the Americans Jwould ‘lose much of the energy and +progressiveness that have pluced them in the front rank of the people of the earth. Recent data com piled by the government bureau of statistics show .that the consumption of apples in this country amounts to two bushels to every man, woman and child per year. I'he average ciop dur- 1 ing the past several years has been 176,000,000 bushels, of which only 3, 000,000 bushels per year have been shipped abroad. The balance was eat en at home. No other fruit is s¢ pop ular as the apple, which goes into tens of thousands of homes, and stemachs that never know oranges and peaches and plums. In numbers the apple trees of the United States far surpass all other fruit trees, the total of the apple fami ly running upwards of 200,000,000, all busily engaged in working for the good of mankind; and the family is be ing increased by the huondreds of thousands every year. At the end of 1902, it is estimated, a little better that 55 per cent of all the fruit bearing trees in the country were apple. Chronic Bronchitis Cured. “For ten yvears I had chronic bron chitis so bad that at times I could not speak above a whisper,” writes Mr. Joseph Coffman, of Montmorenci, [nd. “I tried all remedies available, but with no success. Fortunately my em ployer suggested that I try Folev’s Honey and Tar. Its effect was almos: miraculous, and I am now cured of the disease. On my recommendation - great many people have used Foley's Honey and Tar, and always with satis faction.” KENDRICK'S DRUG STORE | rad el b i | ' A Remarkable Blind Man, A very remarkable blind man died [in Tamaqua, Pa., a day or two ago, io ‘his 86th year.

IR Weak @&p II t ST Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of every one hundred people wno have heart trouble can remember when it was simple indiges tion. Itis a scientific fact that all cases of heart disease, not organic, are not only traceable to, but are the direct result of indi gestion. All food taken into the stomach which fails of perfect digestion ferments and swells the stomach, puffing it up against the heart. This interferes with the action of the heart, and in the course of time that delicate but vital organ becomes diseased. Mr. D.
