We haven't heard that anyone is

dispatch from Rlcltmoud.
Richmond, Nov, IS —Stockholders of
the Atlantic Coast Line met to-day and
declared a dividend of twenty-five per
cent on the common stock; twenty per
cent cash, five per cent on certificate of
Indebtedness, pavabls in January. The
capital stock was increased to fifty
million dollan. Thera was no change
in the officers. Tbe porcluue of the
Jacksonville and Southwestern railroad
was approved.
Very favorable reports about the
Lowry cotton picker are being tent oat.
The following is a sample;
The Lowry Cottou Picker, u tcefod
in Albany last week, pawed a grand
success. Capitalists from the North
were present and agreed to famish the
money to place it on the market. It is
claimed that it will pirk nt least one-
fourth of next .years' cotton crop. It
will pick tan bales a day, at n coat not
exceeding four dollars a day, and nt
present prices for picking cotton will
pay for itself in thirty day*
The light proposition is' weighing
heavily on tho scales of jnstico.

Political statisticians will be interested
in knowing that the Democratic con

totals #4,398. This ia about 30,000 more
than Parker’s vote. Judge Griggs, in

Two Minutes
Physicians tell us that all
the blood in a,healthy
human body passes through
the heart once in every two
minutes. If this action be
comes irregular the whole
body suffers. Poor health
follows poor blood ; Scott’s
Emulsion makes the blood
pure. One reason why
SCOTT’S
EMULSION
js such a great aid is because
it passes so quickly into
the blood. It is partly di
gested before it enters the
stomach; a double advan
tage in this. Less work
for the stomach; quicker
and more direct benefits.
To get the greatest amount
of good with the least pos
sible effort is the desire of
everyone in poor health.
Scott’s Emulsion does just
that. A change for the
better takes place even be
fore you expect it.
