DIGESTIVES.
There is an underlying principle
in the prescribing or taking of so-
called “digestives,” that the patient
should understand, along with the
physician—and it is this: No stom
ach should be encouraged in lazi
ness; in other words, don’t do the
work for the Ktomach, which it is
capable under proper stimulus, to
do for itself.
We know that the stomach

I am speaking, of course, of the
stomach that is tired out and kick

as it properly ahould. Organic dis

tain bodily weight and strength.
Recently a man consulted me, re
marking that he had taken “a bar

GINNING
We have thoroughly gone over our machinery and it
is humming like a Waterbury Watch. Our gins are
gpfyinlly built for Boll WeevUs, Hard Locks and Dirty,
Trashy Cotton. Our samples will bring from one-fourth
to one-half per pound more than the regular equipped
gins. They are also geared to low speed, 425 revolutions
per minute, and will not gin-cut on dry cotton.
We believe it will pay you to drive a little farther
and wait a little longer and gin your cotton with us.
OUR PRICES AND SERVICE WILL BE IN LINE
AT ALL TIMES.
