Safety and Satisfaction.
SAFETY in money is one of the most essential
features of modern merchandiising.
This store’s constant aim is to surround its pat
rons with a bulwark of safety.
There is the safety of reliable, carefully bought
goods. The safety of absolute price fairness. The
safety of the "ONE PRICE TO ALL" system which
places the buying public on a level of commercial
equality in their trading. Then there is the safety
of money refunded without a murmur.
With all these safeguards to right money spend
ing satisfaction is sure to follow.

SPLENDID TALENT IN COMPANY 1
Olympia Opera Company Comes Well 1
Heralded.
The beautiful and ever popular
opera, “La Mascotte,” to be presented (
here Monday night by the Olympia t
Opera Co. will evidently bring out a <
large audience, No company has vis- i
ited Americus before so highly recom- t
mended as the Olympia. Every city <
speaks in highest praise of them indi- <
yidually and collectively. Miss Lottie 1
Kendall, one of the prettiest women on ]
the American stage, is the principal i
prima donna. Miss Nellie Wood, a <
little chick of a woman, plays the prin- 1
cipal soubrette roles. Mr. Ed L. j
Weston, the tenor, was formerly of the I
Castle Square Opera Co. Mr. Sylvain ]
Langlois, the baritone, has been with ]
all the opera companies of note in this <
country. Mr. Post Mason is another |
baritone. Messrs. Wm. Hicks and
Arthur Burgess are comedians of the
first water and keep the audience in
hearty good humor all the time. The
costumes are said to be very fine.
A Thousand Tongues.
Could not express the rapture of An
nie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard street,
Philadelphia, Pa., when she found that
Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consump
tion had completely cured her of a
hacking cough that for many years had
made her life a burden. All other rem
-1 edles and doctors could give her no help, ;
but she says of this Royal Cure—“it
i soon removed the pain in my chest and
I can now sleep soundly, something I
can scarcely remember doing before.”
I feel like sounding its praises through
’ out the Universe.” Ho will every one
who tries Dr. King’s New Discovery for
any trouble of Throat, Chest or Lungs.

MAKING SUCCESS Or BUSINESS.
A Local Enterprise That is Firmly
Established.
Just four years ago today Barney
> Ball established the Americus Bakery
and turned out his first hot loaves.
His beginning was upon a limited
> scale, but by painstaking care and
' close attention to business he has built
up a splendid trade not only in Amer
icus but in the country round about for
fifty miles. Mr. Ball, during these
, four years, has supplied Americus with
bread and cakes of the finest quality,
and the fact that he makes daily ship
ments to nearly every town in South
west Georgia, even as far as Lyons,
125 miles away, is proof of the strong
! hold he has on the public. Always
courteous and obliging, honest and
square in all his dealings, Mr. Ball is
entitled to the fine trade he has built
up and to the confidence in which he is
held by the best people of Americus
and this section of Georgia.

REACHES THE TOPMOST POINT.
. Attendance in Public Schools The
Highest.
’ With the close of October yesterday
r the attendance in the white schools of
’ Americus reached the highest point in
• twenty years or since the establishment
r ot the public school system here. Supt.
Mathis reports the total enrollment of
’ white pupils as GOO, which is 75 more
• than at this date a year ago and the
highest on record. In the colored
, schools the attendance is 550, which is
’ 150 less than at this date last year.
These absentees, however, are ac
. counted for and all will be back in the
, school room before the end of another
month. This gives the schools, at
present, a total enrollment of nearly
1,200 pupils.

' SOLONS HAVING GREAT JUNKET
i
• Wisdom of Georgia Taking in the
State Fair.
The Georgia Legislature rang off on
business yesterday and went last night
by special train to Valdosta to take in
the sights of the State Fair. The so-
> lons will spend today in Valdosta, and
tomorrow will go to Columbus to view
the street fair there, midway and all.
’ It is expects that fully one hundred
- and fifty members of the Legislature
■ will make the trip. They will be suit
ably entertained by the people of the
city. A barbecue Is one of the features
' said to be on the program of entertain-
I ment.
Why Suffer With Backache ?
f I have suffered several years with
, backache, and after taking one bottle of
Smith’s Sure Kidney Cubs, have
been cured. Since then I have not been
, troubled with my back. Too much can
’ not be said in its praise.

THUNDER OF A HUNDRED GUNS
Will Be Heard About Americus This
Morning.
The burnishing of guns and field
equipment yesterday boded no good to
the feathered tribe hereabout, and to
day the thunder of a hundred guns
will be heard m the fields and woods
about Americus. This is the first day
of the shooting season, and every own
er of a gun and dog will be on Bob
White’s trail before sunrise. Great
preparations to this end were being
made yesterday in the way of cleanine
guns, buying shells and bottling snake
antidote, and the “slaughter of the in
nocents” promises to be terrific. Par
tridges are very plentiful, while one
hunter ran into a big drove of wild tur
keys, ten miles west of town, yester
day, but dared not shoot until permit
ted by law to do so.
An Editor’s Awful Plight.
F. M. Higgins, Editor Seneca, (Ills.)
News, was afflicted for years with Piles
that no doctor or remedy helped until
he tried Bucklen’s Arnica Salve. He
writes two boxes wholly cured him. It’s
the surest Pile cure on earth and the
best salve in the world. Cure guaran
teed. Only 25 cents. Sold by E. J.
Eldridge, druggist.
BOXES FOR RURAL MAIL LINES.
Handy Devise To Be Placed At Gate
Or Door.
Postmaster Smith received yesterday
a sample mail box for rural or resi
dence delivery, which will prove a
great convenience to purchasers. The
box has a double compartment, the
larger one for papers or packages and
the smaller, which is protected by a
Yale lock, for letters only. The boxes
cost SI. 25 singly, but in dozen lots will
be much cheaper. Every farmer on a
rural route should have one, while the
boxes would be a convenience to town
people who have mail delivered at
their homes. Postmaster Smith has
already taken several orders for these
mail boxes.
While There is Life There is Hope.
I was afflicted with catarrh; could
neither taste nor smell and could hear
but little. Ely’s Cream Balm cured it.
—Marcus G. Shantz, Rahway, N. J.
The Balm reached me safely and the
eftect is surprising. My son says the
first application gave decided relief.
Respectfully, Mrs. Franklin Freeman,
Dover, N. H.
The Balm does not irritate or cause
sneezing. Sold by druggists at 50 cts.
or mailed by Ely Brothers, 56 Warren
St., New York.
THE FIGURES NOT OBTAINABLE.
Population of Americus Not Announc
ed as Yet.
The fact that the Census Bureau has
published the population of Georgia,
as shown by the late census, caused a
revival of interest yesterday in the
long expected returns of Americus.
This information is not at hand yet,
however, though it will be very shortly
as the sum total for the State has been
footed up. As noted by the figures
given in yesterday’s Times-Recorder
the population of Georgia is 2,216,329,
an increase of 378,976 in ten years.
Supervisor Wetteroth hopes to secure
the census figures of Americus in a
few days.
For the serious diseases that attack
the kidneys, Prickly Ash Bitters is
an unfailing remedy. Relieves back
ache, swelling of the feet and persistent
headache—symptoms which indicate
kidney troubles. Dr. E. J. Eldridge.
Blood will tell—therefore it is un
wise to confide a secret to relatives.
The kidneys are small but important
organs. They need help occasionally.
Prickly Ash Bitters is a successful
kidney tonic and system regulator. Dr.
