IN ADVERTISING FIELD
(Copyright. 1104, by T. J. Kelly.)

another year. Keeping evelaetlngly at It brings euceaa. It will make both

lie careful how you advertlee. There are different ways of advertising.
There Is only one effective way. The nlhrra ere more or less worthlees.
The effective way la nawapaper advertising. .
You oak why the newspaper Is the heel kind of advertising? Hors Is tho
reason: If you write Ihe story of your business and publish It In an up-to-
date newspaper your business will And Its way Into tho lending homes In thn
territory In which you are searching for trade. If you keep your advertise
ment In that newspaper people will become acquainted with you. These peo
ple will begin trading with you. You will deni fairly with them, which will
make them your friends. They will tell their friends about you. Then you
will gel their friends' trade, and so on. This Is all done at the least possible
expense through a newspaper.
Now, suppose. Instead of publishing your advertisement In the newspa
per! you Issue circulars. What era you going to do with the circulars? Go.
Ing to distribute them liy hand? It you do most of them will And their way
Into trash boxes, sewers and other obscure places doing to send Ihem out

plaintiff* filed a petition praying the
superior court to enjoin the ordinary
from proclaiming the result a* da-

uml Illegalities In the election render
in* w void. This Injunction was tie-
Mf i by Judge Littlejohn, to which
pStntlfra • xrepted. the aupcrlor court
affirming Judge Littlejohn’* ruling.

Much Interest le manifested In the
roult of the esse, there being
400 witness iiubpoened. and tho court
room baa been crowded to tla. capacity.
Upon the call of the case for trial,
coun*el for plaintiff* amended the!
petition by striking the equitable fen
turee *4 It. Counsel for defendant
bad filed a demurrer to plalniJffii ori
ginal petition upon fifteen ground* and
upon three additional grounds as
amended. They also objected to the
amendment because U made a new
course of action, changing It from a
bill In equity and relief. Into a statu
tory proceeding, because there was
nothing to amend by. and because they
cannot strike out what has been Anally
adjudicated. These objections to the
amendment were sustained, and the
amendment dlosaUowed.
The demurrers went to the form of
tho action, the plaintiff* having elect
ed to proceed In a court of equity,
when the statute provide* a remedy.
They could not chiinge It Into a statu-
tory proceeding. After exhaustive
argument by counsel* the court sus
tained the demurrers and dtsml**ed

test, for the present, at least.

inated today when Russell 13. Drake,
alia* James Russell Lowell Miller, a
paroled convict, who has been living

band waa h paroled convict reached the
wife until yesterday when a statement
signed by Drake’s aon-ln-law, Charles
K. Heidelberg of Rowling Oreen. O.,
revealing the fact, was published in

loyul to him and help him live down
the past, but she was prevailed upon

Atlanta Lawyers Have Lively Fight
for Few Minutes-
ATLANTA, Nov. £3.-The throwing
of ink wells, followed by a regular
slugging match in which "biffs were
returned with ‘’biffs” in quick sue
cession briefly des< rlbea an encounter
which occurred today in the criminal
division of the city court of Atlanta,
Judge Andy L. Calhoun presiding, be
tween Ben J. Conyers and Daniel W.
Rountree, two prominent members of
the Atlanta bar. While tho trouble
was In progress, there was consider
able excitement In the court room, and
although friends made every effort to
separate the bellgerants. it waa some
time before peace and good order were
restored. The fight occurred during
the trial of a damage suit case, and
while Mr. Rountree was addressing
the Jury. The case was that of the
Coffin-Fletcher Packing Company
against J. O. Cross, C. D. Brown and
a fidelity company to recover attor
ney! fees and costs of court, amount
ing to $r>,000. Mr. Conyers represented
the Coffin-Fletcher Company, nnd Mr.
Rountree, Cross, Brown nnd the fidelity
company. While Mr. Rountree was on
the floor nrgulng the case, he made a
statement about the evidence Introduc
ed, to which Mr. Conyers took excep
tion*. Springing suddenly to his feet
Mr. Conyers Interrupted Mr. Rountree
by stating that the evidence being ar
gued had never been submitted In the
case. Mr. Rountreo centended that it
had and that he had n right to argue it.
Mr. Conyers was standing on one side
of a large table In the room used by
the lawyers, with his foot on his chair,
while Mr. Rountree was standing In
the opposite side of the table, with the
Jury lined up in their seats to the left
of him. The two attorneys then en
gaged In a snappy discussion of the
Issue Involved. With much earnest
ness Mr. Conyers said:
If Mr. Rountree contends that the
evidence he i* trying to argue was sub
mltted In thut case, he Is stating an
untrue." Ho was still standing with
his foot on the chslr.
Mr. Rountree turned angrily* "I am
tired of this Interruption," he shouted.
He reached to the table und picked up
a heavy ink stand.
A second later he had hurled It dl
rectly at Mr. Conyers, with considera
ble force. Mr. Conyers stooped, throw
Ing up hi* arm to protect his head. Tho
heavy ink stand struck hint In tho left
side. Just over the heart, und staggered
him for a second.
Then he ran around the table and
attacked Mr. Rountree. The fight
which followed was ll«*«ly and hard.
Both of the men used Ltelr fists with
considerable force. Mr. Rountree was
forced back to the wall and Mr. Con-
yera landed several stunning blows In
bis face. Mr. Rountree fought back,
striking Mr. Conyers several blows.
Wildest confusion reigned In the
court room. Witnesses, lawyers, court
officials nnd Jurymen got Into thn
game, trying to separate the fighters.
The members of the Jury Jumped over
the front of the box nnd dashed be
tween the fighting attorneys. One of
the members of the Jury received a
crashing blow In the face, which al
most felled him. The weight of num
bers, however, prevailed and the fight
ers were stopped.
Judge Calhoun Immediately sent the
Jury to Its room and ordered a verdict.
He stated, however, that he waa con
sidering the advisability of declaring a
mistrial In the case.
He ordered th* two attorneys to ap
pear before him Friday, when he will
take action In the cose.

Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna haa found
permanent use In so many homes is
that It contains no narcotics of any
kind. Peruna Is perfectly harmless.
It can be used any length of time with
out acquiring a drug habit. Feruna
does not produce temporary results. It-
ls permanent In Its effect.
It ha* no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by
removing the cause of catarrh. There
are a multitude of homes where Pe
runa has been used off nnd on for
twenty years. Such a thing could not
be possible If Feruna contained any
drugs of a narcotic nature.

Tho cold wind

IN MEMORY OF ALLIE OAY.
William Allen Gay. only son of Mr.
Lewia Gay. died of pneumonia at the
home of hfs father, on the morning of the
nineteenth of November, In the twenty-
savonth yoar of hl» age. Allto Oay had
many warm friends throughout tho state,
especially among the traveling public,
whose hearts will be made sad nt the
news of Ms untimely death. Having lived
In Randolph county since his early child
hood and In Cuthbm for ten years, en
gaged In the livery huelnnim. connected
with the Hotel Randolph as proprietor
and boarder for several years, his oppor
tunities were unusually rair for making
an extensive circle of frlsnds and ac
quaintances. Known In a business way
ss a member of the firm of L. E. Oay £
Son. his dose attention to btudnees Ip nil
Its details gave promise of financial suc
cess. A devoted husband, affectionate
son. fond father, sincere friend, kind and
sympathetic neighbor. Every object of
pity touched a tender chord In his heart,
and his generous nature responded In
deeds of charity unknown to the outalde
world.
In 1899 he waa married to Miss Anabel
Hendrick of Algona, Iowa. In the brief
period of his married ure hla heart wga
gladdened and the world made brighter
by the coming of two lovely babies,
Willie and Lewi*, daughter and son.
Twice his heart was made to bleed, when
the little ones, each a little over two years
of age. “beautiful, bright, transient aa i
morning dew. loarkl^i. exhaled and went
to heaven.” After this bitter experience,
the father’s heart wa» more than ever
set on building the little home he had
so often wished for when the children
were with him. The young wife, whose
heart was made desolate by the low* of
her baby boy, yearned for the companion
ship of her mother, and In a abort while
took the train for the far West. All!*
Immediately began to execute hla plans
for building in order to give her a pleas
ant surprise on her return. Dally we
watched him from our window, aa he vis
ited the spot across the street and seam-
tngly enjoved with increased Interest,
each day. the maturity of his plana How
eloquently these rWt* »polc* to the heart
apd *rt one thinking. What a crowd of
fancies they called forth from the cham
bers of the Imagination to he perhaps re
alised In the uncertain future. The little
cottage waa finished and furnished, the
house not In ord«Hr. the vases filled with
flowers, the evening meal was planned
and with the desires of bis heart gratified.
Allle welcomed Mahel on her ret uni to
their near home. Their domestic feUctty
seemed complete, except for tbe shadow
cost by the empty crib and vacant car
riage. Today bow changed the little cot
