—Weak Heart
Many people suffer from weak hearts. They
may experience shortness of breath on exertion,
pain over the heart, or dizzy feelings, oppressed breathing
after tneals or their eyes become blurred, the heart is not
sufficiently strong to pump blood to the extremities, and
they have cold hands and feet, or poor appetite because of weakened
blood supply to the stomach. A heart tonic and alterative should be taken which has
no bad after-effect. Such is
Dr. Pierced Golden Medical Discovery
which contains no dangerous narcotics or alcohol.
It helps the human system in the constant manufacture of rieh, red blood. It
helps the stomach to assimilate or take up the proper elements from the food, thereby
helping digestion and curing dyspepsia, heart-burn and many uncomfortable symp
toms, stops excessive tissue waste in convalescence from fevers; for the run
down, anaemic, thin-blooded people, the “Discovery” is refreshing and vitalizing.

By DANE COOLIDGE
Author of “The Fighting Fool,- ‘Hukfcn Water-,- The Tezfcan.” Eta.
WE feel that we are indeed fortunate in
being able to announce this truly remark
able story for serial publication in this paper.
It is a stirring story of the Mexican revolution in which this
portrayer of western character has painted vivid pictures of the
scenes of carnage in war-infested Mexico; the plight of'
American refugees in border towns; the wantonness of both
the Mexican federal aad revolutionary troops, and in fact gives
a graphic and truthful description of present conditions and all
through the medium of a powerful story. Mixed with the hair
raising adventures of two Americans is a passionate love story.

STEVENSON IS SINKING
Chicago.— Adlai E. Stevenson, form
er vice president of the United States,
is slowly sinking and the end is likely
to come any time. He took a small
amount of nourishment today for the
first time in 36 hours.
Stella-Vitae was made for women whose life is worn
out by the backache, misery and suffering due to their
peculiar troubles.
It is a guaranteed-to-benefit remedy that has restor
t ed thousands of Southern women to health during the
past thirty years. We authorize all dealers to give
I your money back if the first bottle of Stella- Vitae fails
to help you. The reason for Stella- Vitae’s wonderful
' success is that it cures the cause—goes to the seat
of the trouble. Quiets nerves, lessens pain and
builds up the system by making rich, red blood.'

NICK WILBURN
IS REPENTANT
Gives Way to Emotion When
Last Hope Vanishes. May
Have to Be Carried to Gal
lows.
Macon, Ga.—Unless some unfor
seen hitch arises, N. Wilburn with his
eyes fastened on Crucifix and prayer
for forgiveness on his lips, fully re
pentant for the terrible sin against
God and man that he committed
when he murdered Janies King, al
most two years ago: will walk to the
scalfold in the Jones County jail at
12 o’clock noon today, and there pay
the penalty for his crime.
At Gray yesterday it was said Wil
burn had resigned himself to his fate
and had declared, ’T am ready to
meet my God.” He was deeply mov
ed when he received a telegram Irom
his attorney, John R. Cooper, who
has waged an unrelenting fight in
behalf of Ills client and who did not
abandon hope until the governor had
llnally spoken, saying: ”1 have done
all I can for you. Goodbye." For
several hours after the message came
Wilburn gave way to his grief and his
form shook with sobs as he lay on
his cot in his cell.
May Have to Use Force.
Those who saw Wilburn go int«
hysteria a few days ago when he was
removed from the Bibb County jail
to be taken to Gray and placed under
the death watch fear that he will not
go to the gallows today without force.
They say if he makes a display of
hat kind over being removed from
one jail to another, when the hour
comes for tihte noose to be placed
siound his neck he "will also offer re
sistance and may have to be over-
I owered by main force and carried to
he gallows.
On the other hand men who have
oe:i many hangings say that the ap
■ roach of the ordeal so completely
pnerves the hangman’s intended vie
rn that he almost invariably be
omes limp and offers no resistance.
. iiburiT is a big, strong country boy
nd should he show resistance he
ould no doubt give a good account
j himself.
Every preparation has been made
y Sheriff Charlie Roberts Tor the
hanging at Gray today. The rope
has been in place several days and
has been given a thorough testing.
Deputy Sheriff Sam Westcott, of Ma
con. who during his terms as sheriff
of Bibb County has hung several men
will be at Gray this morning to see
that everything has been arranged

properly. The trigger will be snap
ped by Sheriff Roberts. Only a few
persons will be permitted to witness
the execution.
Accepts Catholic Faith.
For some lime Wilburn has been
accepting the administerings of a
Catholic priest from Macou and thu
same priest will be on hand this
morning to administer the last rites
to the doomed man and give him final
preparations for the meeting with
his Master.
Alter the execution the body will
be turned over to the parents ot Wil
burn for burial. Wilburn’s father,
an industrious, hardworking man, is
heart-broken over the plignt of his
sou. For the sake of his own blood
and believing that his son was not be
ing shown justice in being made to
pay the full penalty while the woman
in the case goes free, Mr. Wilburn
has used every means at his com
mand to save his boy. He has spent
what little mor.ey he had and for
weeks and weeks he has traveled
over Jones, Bibb, and adjoining coun
ties, circulating petitions calling on
the governor to show mercy.
John R. Cooper, attorney for WiV
burn, will not be present at the exe
cution, it is thought. He had not
returned from Atlanta last night
and it was said that he was remain
ing there to make a last and final ap
peal to Governor Slaton this morn
ing.

personal friend of President Wilson,

Monday.
With the nomination of Mr. Jones
the names of Paul M. Warburg of
New York, W. P. G. Harding of Birm
ingham, Ala.; A. C. Miller of San
Francisco, and E. C. Simmons of St.
Louis, to be members of the board,
are expected to go to the senate. Sec
retar} McAdoo and Comptrollar wii
liams of the currency bureau will be
ex-officio members.
Announced Monday.
It was definitely stated at the
White House today that the president
would formally announce the person
nel of tile board Monday.
Mr. Warburg and Mr. Harding are
bankers; Mr. Miller is an economist,
and at present secretary of the in
terior; Mr. Simmons is a merchant;
Mr. Jones is not only a lawyer but
a student and expert in finance.

in the autumn.
Much Detail Work.
Much detail work awaits the federal
reserve hoard after it assumes office.
Secretaries and assistants to the
members must be selected and a com
plete system of reports for the re
serve banks must be worked out
Treasury department officials, how
ever. believe it will be possible to have
the twelve reserve hanks in operation
by August 1, although they say the
demand for money to move crops has
not been such as would suggest that
there will be any great strain to be
relieved by the reserve hanks.
Pullman Co. is Rapped
on the Evil of Tipping
San Francisco.—"lt lB up to you to
stop these practices and pay your
men decent wages.”
This was the ultimatum delivered
today today by President John E.
Eshleman of the California state rail
road commission, to Richard Dean,
general manager of the Pullman Co.,
in a spirited argument on the tipping
evil during an official hearing on the
question.
“You canned stop tipping," argued
Mr. Dean, ‘‘when the public can get
better service by tips. It is human
nature to bid for good service.’’
“Mr. Dean, would you want to take
part of your salary in gratuities?”
Commissioner Eshleman asked.
“Yes, if received under the same
conditions that obtain in the service
the Pullman Company."
“Then our standards of patriotism
are vitally different,” rejoined the
commissioner.

HOW FRENCH PEOPLE
CURE STOMACH TROUBLE
j
A household remedy of the French
peasantry, consisting of pure vegetable
oil, and said to possess wonderful merit
in the treatment of stomach, liver and
intestinal trouble?, has been introduced
in this country by George 11. Mayr, who
for twenty years has been one of the
leading down town druggists of Chi
cago and who himself was cured by its
use. So quick and effective is its action
that a single dose is usually enough to
bring pronounced relief in the most
stubborn cases, and many people who
have tried it declare they never heard
of anything to produce such remarkable
results in so short a time. It is known
as Mayr’s Wonderful Stomach Remedy
and can now be had at almost any drug
atore. It is now sold here by
i i,. Howard's drug Sluice and drug
gists eve-vwhere.
