"Money Dark if it Fails" Says

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 flesli 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.
No one can use this wonderful flesh
forming food for 10 days without no
ticeable gain in flesh and strength.
Carefully kept statistics , show thai
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 so
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 home 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 Soutb
em Conditions
No Changes In Hardware Conditions ,
For the We Tariff . Agitation 1
Affecting Lumber Ponriltlons.-Tex- .
tile Conditions Bad.
The Tradesman this week says:
.Practically .no changes In hardware
trade conditions in 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 final framing of the
the measure the' hardware eltuation
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
gauge 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 last season,
trade has been splendid.
I Jobbers report an unusually large
I number of new stores opening through
out the southland 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
de-jiness since the first of the year, and in
' all other southern states except South
' Carolina a number of new dealers have
Joined the clan
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 190",
and began reviving earlier than other
lines. . '
Prices have remained steady this
week, no changes being reported In any
sta nles. Leather has shown a weak
t.ine hut the same n notations nrevail.
The southwest has been a good mar
ket for fencing wire and other mate
rials this season, the demand exceed
ing anything known in a number of
yrs- ; . . ... ; ' '
. ew joDDers win 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 dtsturber of
business which a ways 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 arc 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 nt some mills. Or
ders continue to come In at a fair
rate, however, and most lumbermen
expect an excellent season next month.
The spring trade has brought a gen
eral demand for all grades but tempor
arily trade has suffered by a"(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.

so, It Is llke!ymany mills will, shut
down. In fact,, several mills nave al
ready closed ohpfations; a few others
have decided to run only part time,
and most of the ,hard yarn mills are
now curtailing heavily. So bad Is the
general situation that . it Is deemed
necessarry to apply the most strenuous'
treatment. Whether this win be a to
tal suspension of operations, remains
to be seen, and , will be determined
largely by : the developments of. the
next few weeks.
