Artificial Digestion.
Is that all you want? It is not all that
you can get. T. & P. Stomach Tablets
contain the best digestive agents. These
digest the food; but if this was all
they would not and could not cure you.
They have combined with these digest
ive ferments, Tonics that act directly on
the organs of digestion, and Laxatives
that regulate the Liver and Bowels, pub-
ting the system in condition to perform
its own work. This means that if you
will half way take care of your stomach
a cure is certain.
T. & P. Stomach Tablets are for sale
by all druggists. 50c. a box.
Free sample by mail if you will write
for it.

Last Sunday at the home of the
bride’s aunt, Mrs. W. H. Morrow,
at Jonesboro, Mr. Stonewall Ellis

leading farmers of this communi
ty. Tht, bride is a most estimable
young lady of many accomplish

teacher. The happy pair have a
great many friends who join your

much happiness. May their life

cloud or shadow to obscure the
sun-shine.
Rain has been excessive, and
our farmers are behind with their

While labor is scarce, we think
it very unneighborly for a white

hold back and he would Jget more
for his labor. Such people are an
injury to a community, unworthy
to be termedjcitizens, and beneath
the dignity of any white man

pointment Sunday. The audience
was unusually large, and the ser
mon decidedly good.
