Samose Will Make People Fat
"Money Baek if it Fails" Says
Henry T. Hicks Drug Co.
The line of beauty Is a curve. Wo
men may be thin and graceful but
not thin and beautiful. There is a
vast number of pale, thin, scrawny
people who are all brains and nerves,
but without the strength and health
that. accompanies the standard
weight. : Good flesh and perfect
health go together. A true flesh
forming food like Samose is absolute
ly necessary to many people.
This remarkable discovery comes
in tablet form and when taken after
meals mingles with the food and
helps it to assimilate so that it makes
rich blood and pleasing plumpness.
Xo one can use this wonderful flesh
forming food for 10 days without no
ticeable gain in flesh and strength.
Carefully kept statistics show that
out of every hundred people who be
gin the use of Samose, 98 per cent
increase in weight and their health
and strength are restored.
Henry T. Hicks Drug Co. has bo
much confidence in this remarkable
flesh-forming food and health re
storer that they are willing and glad
to allow any customer to deposit 60c
with them and take borne a box of
Samose with the understanding that
if it does not give a marked increase
in good firm flesh the money will be
returned without any questions.

SURVEY OF BUSINESS
Tradesman's Survey of South
ern Conditions
No Changes In Hardware Conditions
;.: For tle Week Tariff Agitation
Affecting Lumber Conditions Tex
tile Condi t ions Had.
The Tradesman this week says:
.Practically .no changes in hardware
trade conditions n the south have been
noted the past week, although manu
facturers .are somewhat annoyed by
the, provisions of .the new tariff bill. It
is hot considered as certain ; by any
means, that in the finai framing of the
the measure the' hardware situation
will be materially disturbed. Through
out the south this week the most flat
tering reports of general conditions
have been given and jobbers are un
usually well pleased with the situa
tion. .
Retailers have failed to properly
gnuge their spring demands and many
are already in the market restocking
for the present. Low stocks will pre
vail with retailers. This practice bids
fair to continue through this year In
the main, although many strong ser
mons against the practice are being
sent out: Crop conditions appear ex
cellent in most localities, and with the
few exceptions where floods or boll
weevils got in their work hist season,
trade has been splendid. , '
Jobbers report an unusually large
I number of new stores opening through-
out the south, and this has stimulated
trade considerably. In, Tennessee sev
I en new stores have opened In ten days,
I buying entire new stocks. In Texas
a score of new dealers have begun bus
'. iness since the first of the year, and In
all other southern states except South
Carolina a number of new dealers have
I Joined the clan.
I The vehicle trade, which Is joint with
hardware in the greater portion of the
south, has also been uncommonly good
this spring, and Jobbers in this line
have enjoyed a better trade than they
have had for three years. Remarka
ble as It may seem, . the vehicle busi
ness suffered most about a year be
fore the financial depression of 1907,
and began reviving earlier than other
lines. ' '
Prices have remained steady this
week, no changes being reported In any
staples. Leather has shown a weak
tone, but the same quotations prevail.
The southwest has been a goAd mar
kef for fencing wire and other mate
rials this season, the demand exceed
ing anything known in a number of
years.
Few Jobbers will venture an opinion
on the fall trade situation this early
In the season, but general indications
point to the fact that the hardware
business will continue the present until
the maximum Is reached again.
The Lumber Trade.
Tariff agitation, that disturber of
business which aways comes at the
most Inopportune time, has had Its ef
fect upon the lumber traffic of the
south in no uncertain , way the past
week, but lumbermen are giving the
question only the attention it demands.
Buyers have been busy making Inqui
ries, but have bought sparingly, fear
ing that the : present tariff schedule
will be come a law, and naturally, mill
men have been unable to force busi
ness to any extent. All mills are work
ing on full time, where the. log supply
will permit, and all are looking for an
excellent spring business.
In hardwood centers business Is par
ticularly active, although the better
grades are 'too scarce to allow
much activity in shipping. Quar
tered and plain oak, common red oak,
chestnut and some others are very
low, but the country mills are report
ing a very good supply for next month.
Poplar Is bringing excellent prices and
all mills are trying to turn out their
maximum cut although extra widths
and Choice grades are extremely
scarce.
Throughout the yellow pine belt
mills are running regularly this week
but the movement of lumber Is far be
low the cut. Yards are filling up with
a splendid lot of lumber and conges
tion is threatened at some mills. Or
ders Continue to come In at a fair
rate, however, and most lumbermen
expect an excellent season next month.
The dpring trade has brought a gen
eral demand for all grades but tempor
arily trade has suffered by aV(ces to
delay shipment. Buyers In the field,
however, Admit they will have more
favorable Instructions a little later jmd
all are looking for far more satisfac
tory conditions with the coming of
April.

The Harmony
Of flomc
Does Not Mingle With or Emanate
From The Hable of Dyspepsia .,:
In the home meal-time ehoud awak
en In all ' the inhabitants a peculiar
harmony Ht joy which will make for
the home the abiding place of Interest
and happiness. . ;
If one member of the dining table is
out of sorts, his Influence is felt and
the harmony is lacking.. Conversation
and mirth are .absent. Devouring
thoughts assail the diners and silence
prevails. ; .
"At The Dyspeptic's Table Ominous,
Quiet and ' Gloom Crowds Out
Mirth. . .
All physicians agree that mirth and
Joy at meal time does much towards
digestion. Mirth tingles the whole
nervous organism of man,, the cells
wherein are stored valuable digestive
juices empty their contents under e
nerve stlmplatlon and promote the
highest degree of digestion.
If gloom and discomfort prevail at
the table-the reverse action obtains
and meals become necessities, not. an
ticipated Joys.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets' are little
storehouses of digestion which mix
with the stomach juices, digest food,
retlngle th. mucous membrane and Its
nerve centers, give to the bipod a great
wealth of 'digestive fluids, promote di
gestion, and stays by the stomach un
til all its duties, are complete. '
If dyspepsia sits at tables it makes
the dining room a place of awe; ese
tablets should be taken after meals and
dyspepsia as a consequence ffees.
No need for diet or fasting. The dys
peptics who will use them religiously
will find no sense of nausea In the
sight of generous meals or in. theodor
of rich, cooking..
It matters not what the condition of
the stomach Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets only Improve the juices and bring
quiet to the whole digestive. canal, of
which the stomach Is the center.

so, it Is likely, .miiny mills will, shut
down. In fact,, several mills have al
ready closed oi)prations; a few. others
have decided to run only part time,
and moBt of the ,hard yarn mills are
now curtailing heavily. So bad Is the
general situation that It Is deemed
necessarry to apply the most strenuous1
treatment. Whether this will be a to
tal suspension of operations, remains
to be seen, and.-,' .will be determined
largely by the developments of the
next few weeks. . .
It Is the prevailing opinion among
southern hard yarn pinners that the
northern association should join with
the southern association In the effort
to restore prices to a living basis.
