r ' - r . Friday, ITcv. - i ( i! . I ' I Why ,1 Lost My Job Ken sons Why Thousands Like Mo , Cannot Satisfy Their Employers. I believe my fate Ji not unlike that of thousands-of other workers; wflo dally lo.e their plc tor reasons they do not know, and probably would nor believe. When their last pay envelope comes along, It Is usually, "Tour ser vices no lonjrer required." If the j truth were known, 'the reason for their unceremonious removal would prob ably be that their usefulness was de stroyed because of some mental worry. bodily ailment or general indlsposi tlon. These things, as we all know, are the most fruitful causes of failure In all walks of life. The battle of Waterloo was lost because of a head ache. In this quick age our minds must be clear, rapid, active and free from outside influence -or worry, or else we go down to failure with the throng of "floaters" whb go from one place of employment to another, giv ing no satisfaction to others or to themselves, constantly growing older and less useful, with no ambition, no will power, and no hope. Every man requires from every ' other man the best that is in him, But no man can use or get the best that is in himself until he Is first free from all fretful indispositions and worries. V That was my trouble I was full of troubles. That's why I lost my job. My stomach in the first place. was al ways out of order, and I was worry. lng about It and my mind grew cloudy, and slow. I made mistakes, and grew grouchy. That was the end. There are thousands like me, going about with "quick lunch" faces, dys peptic manners, and repulsive atmos pheres. No employer wants such men's services. Take my advice. A healthy stom ach now and hold a good position, and my employer is satisfied and so am I. I started to take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which I was told were good for the worst cases of indigestion and dyspepsia. The first two tablets made a wonderful difference In my condt tlon. One Ingredient of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digests 3000 grains of food. The stomach doesn't have to work at all. The Tablets do all the work, no matter how heavy your meal. Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets cure brash; eructations, burning sensations, bloat, Irritations, loss of appetite, nau sea, heartburn, lack of energy, loss of memory and dyspepsia and Indiges tion In their very worst forma No other little tablets in the world can do so much. You should carry them around with you wherever you go and take them regularly after meals. Then you will realize what it is to be freed from stomach torment, and have a clear mind, a quick mem ory, a happy disposition, comfort and rest Get Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at any drug store for 60c a box.

AUSTIN DAM FAULTY Experts Tentify at the Inquest to Fix Blame for Deaths In Disaster. Coudersport, Pa., Nov. S. That the dam of the Bayless Pulp and Paper company at Austin, Pa., the breaking of which on September 30 caused over three score deaths and millions of dollars of property damage, was faulty In practically every detail, was the opinion of Professor Frank P. McKlbbln sf the engineering depart ment of the Lehigh university, and Alfred D. Fllnn, department engineer of the board of water supply of New York city, expressed yesterday when the Inquest Into the disaster was re sumed. The inquiry was again continued to accommodate E. C. Hatton of Wil mington, Del who designed and con structed the Ill-fated dam fonv the paper company. When the inquest Is taken up next month, Mr. Hatton will be the only witness examined and a verdict will come quickly. Norman i. Colt-man Dead. St. Louis. Nov. 3. Norman J.

Problem Does Not Feaze Justice James, with His Garden. SALES $25 A WEEK FOR PART OF SUMMER Mr. James Does Most of the Work and Has Time to Devote to Other Blatters. . Day after day one hears of the high cost of living and about as often remedies for it ate given, economies both great and small, various sys terns to follow in order to save, the kind of steak to buy, or not to buy, and how long to wear a winter coat. . Probably the most acceptable rem edies 'are those which provide that the people produce . more of the thlnsgi that they consume themselves. This does not necessarily refer to the farmer, but as will, be shown, applies with equal force, rather with more force, to the urban dweller, since the farmer ' is not to much concerned about the high cost , of living. It haa been demonstrated right herein jAshevllle, within a quarter mile of Pack square, that -money which would provide food for the av erage family for a year can be obtain' ed from the produce raised on one' half acre of ground, and this during six months of the year. Magistrate W. A- James has this summer, in the very shadow of the Auditorium, raised garden truck which he has sold to his neighbors and the markets for nearly $500 since May 1. . Before the garden sea son la entirely over It Is probable that be will have sold the full $500 worth. In fact, it may amount to more than that now, since Mrs. James has sold some vegetables that Mr. James has not kept account of: and it is not counting what was used at the home table. Since May I there has not been a day except Sundays when he has not made a sale and one day the salos amounted to nearly $10. The total figures so far amount to over $445 in excess of some sold before May t. Squire James says that he has mrely half an acre of ground and he has done nearly all the work him self. He does not make any mystery bout his personal solving of the high cost of living. He simply plant ed the stuff, the common "garden varieties," and disposed of It He had no trouble In selling It. In fact he could have sold more than he raised. Mr. James has put the amounts of the sales down in a book every day. The biggest reeclpts were in May, amounting to more man szs per week. Dry weather cut down the receipts later In the summer, but In October he sold $41 worth. He says he will ' dispose of $40 worth more, which will make about $500 for the full season. This would seem to prove that the high cost of living is not as serious as people consider It to be. When one man can produce enough on a half acre of land and still help to keep the legal machinery running to feed the average family for a year, it seems that there Is little ground for fears of starving. 15. FERGUSON WED MSWHEfl She Testifies in Divorce Suit Resulting from Her Trip with Maine Guide. Bridgeport, Conn., Nov. 3. Mrs. Wallace Ferguson, Jr.. of Stamford. whose husband accused her of undue familiarity with a half breed Indian ulde, testified In the trial of her hus band's suit fhr divorce and her coun ter suit, before Judge Howard J. Cur tis In the Superior court. She coolly parried many keen thrusts aimed at her and proved skilful witness.

SOME RICH FARMERS IN WESTERN SECTION The Leicester and Sandy Mush Sec tions, and Their Fine , Famift Farm Worth In Other Counties. The rapid Increase In agricultural land values in Western North Caro lina, particularly ' In - this ' county, is little short of wonderful, considering that the biggest part of the Increase has taken place In the past ten years. Land that could have been -bought ten years ago for $35 per acre would now bring $100. Nowhere has this wonderful In crease been more pronounced than in the Leicester and. Sandy Mush sec tions of the county. And It Is Inter esting to note that the increased value must in this case be entirely due to the increased productiveness of the soil, that is it does not depend upon outside influences, such as railways and proximity to towns. It is purely a rural neighborhood. By some it is considered the best farming section in Buncombe. Here is what a man who recently made a trip through Leicester, says about the farms: - 'Traveling recently In the Leicester country, the best farming section of Buncombe county, I found many young farmers who, I was told, were worth from $5000 to $20,000 each. There are probably scores of farmers who are worth more than $10,000. Twenty years ago a farmer whose posessions amounted to $10,000 was considered a very rich man, whereas. now it is notblng out of the ordinary. "A great many of them have nice, new houses and barns, the farms are well stocked, they own the best farm implements, all are educating their children In good schools This same condition prevails throughout the county, to a considerable extent, but the Leicester and Sandy Mush sec- ions are the richest. "A case in point a young man living In Leicester precinct No. 2. eight years ago bought a farm from an Ashevllle man, at the price of $7000, paying $3500 In cash, which was $500 more than had he borrow ed the rest. He has paid for this place and bought two others and made all the money out of the ground. A man told me that $30,000 would not buy out the young farmer now. He made 1200 bushels of wheat on his original farm laat year. besides other crops. "This money is made out of gen eral crops, mostly, end horses and cattle." This gentleman then went on to speak of the Increase of land values In other counties. 'In the Crab tree and other sections of Haywood county there are any number of farmers worth from $60, 000 to $200,000 each. I have heard of one woman farmer worth $100, 00. All these fortunes came from farming and stock raising, much of the value being represented In land. Farms, some of them, are worth five times as much as they were five or ten years ago. Indeed, It is almost safe to say that every farm In west ern North Carolina has Increased live-fold in value In the past 15 years. As for Cherokee county I was told that It years ago, when a republican was elected sheriff, all the republicans n the county together, could not make his bond, and they had to call on a wealthy democrat for help. Now there are at least It republican farmers In the county, any one of whom could make the bond." Priests' Advice Led to Their Recovery.
