Profit-Sharing Stock

We offer you a chance to become part owner of a profitable business, which has cost years of hard work and much money to put on a paying basis.

Magazine, paper and book publishing is one of the most profitable industries in the country. In no other department of legitimate business is the percentage of success so high and the profits on the capital investment so large as in that of supplying monthly and weekly periodicals to the American public.

In the last ten years the aggregate circulation of weekly publica. tions of the magazine class has multiplied ten times, and the monthly magazines show an increased circulation seven times as great. This is proof that the publishing business is one of constantly increasing value.

The Watson publications have a practically unlimited and exclusive field. When we took over the Taylor-Trotwood subscription list Watson's became the dean of Southern magazines. The oldest magazine of general interest and influential circulation, ours is the only representative Southern publication. The Eastern magazines have never given the South the consideration that its importance deserves. When they treat Southern subjects at all, it is usually from a hostile and unsympathetic standpoint.

The enormous and startling industrial growth of the South in the last few years has created a demand for advertising mediums with a large and widely distributed circulation.

The capital of the Jeffersonian Publishing Company is $100,000. The value of the shares is set at $5.00, so as to give the smallest investor a chance. We have over $100,000 worth of assets. Our plant, the largest and most up-to-date in the South, is all paid for. We don't owe a cent, except our monthly bills for running expenses. We have installed a new press, the largest of its kind ever built. Its capacity it 20,000 papers per hour.

"THE JEFFS" paid, regularly and punctually, eight per cent. interest on their bonds, and there is every reason to believe that we can pay higher dividends on our stock. Applications are being received by every mail, and every share will be sold at par.

If you wish to take advantage of this offer, write at once for detailed statements and application blanks.

WE will wager that you have no complete set of the works

of the man whom Lord Tennyson called "the literary

glory of America"-the man who wrote the most effective example of fugitive poetry ever published in the United States-the man who gave fresh life to the "short story"-the man who invented the detective story and the tale of mystery-America's first real critic:

EDGAR ALLAN POE

Poe was the most cosmopolitan of American writers. His best work belongs to the highest domain of art. His stories have admittedly served as models to such creators. as Sir Conan Doyle, and some of his verse is not excelled by any in our languange for music and imagination. His strong originality, his firm, fine touch, and his sombre, yet beautiful, temperament, combine to throw a spell over his readers and, as it were, transport them to another world.

ONLY 60 SETS NOW LEFT!

WE have an edition of POE'S works that

we have called the FORDHAM EDITION; for it was in his tiny cottage at Fordham that Poe composed "The Raven." This set is in ten volumes, and contains over 3,000 text pages-each one printed in two colors with an ornamental border. The set is illustrated by 36 full-page designs in photogravure on Japan vellum with printed tissues.

An introduction is given by Nathan Haskell

TRIAL OF JESUS FROM A LEGAL STANDPOINT By W. J. GAYNOR, Mayor of New York City, and Formerly Supreme Court Justice Jesus was not the victim of a mob but was tried and condemned in a court of law. Was the trial fair? Was the arrest lawful? What was the charge and was it a crime in law? Was the court duly constituted? Had it jurisdiction? Did the evidence support the verdict? Was the sentence legal? Was Jesus denied any lawful right? Ought the Appellate Court to have reversed the judgment had the great Prisoner at the bar made appeal? Judge Gaynor's judicial review of this tragic event is one of the intellectual productions of the world. Published exclusively in Vol. II Sellers' Classics just off the press. Daniel Webster's speech against a man charged with murder also published and many masterpieces of literature found in no other book. 321 pages. Price $2.00.

Vol. I. (distinct from Vol. II.) contains great jury trials and legal arguments. You hear Beach's burning words in the damage suit against Henry Ward Beecher for leading the plaintiff's wife astray, and the eloquent Tracy in the minister's defense. You hear Delmas in the Thaw case picture Evelyn's life along the primrose path. You hear Prentiss in Kentucky's greatest murder trial and Susan B. Anthony's dramatic response to the court that condemned her. You hear Clarence Darrow and Senator Borah in Haywood's recent trial, and you stand for two hours with the mighty Voorhees as he invokes the unwritten law in behalf of an erring sister's brother who killed the man "that plucked the flower from the garden of honor and flung it away in a little while, withered and dead." You hear Ingersoll, Seward, Lewis, Rayner, Brady and other thought and language masters plead for the heart treasures of life. 314 pages. Price $2.00.

Both books handsomely bound and illustrated. Sold separately or together. Shipped prepaid. If either is not all we claim money refunded and ten per cent additional as interest thereon.

Dr. Irvine K. Mott's Method of
Kidney Treatment

restores cell function of the kidney not de-
stroyed, arrests and prevents further spreading
of the disease. His methods for treating kidney
affections have been tested by the Cincinnati
Post. A full detail of this investigation or test
can be had by addressing him as below.

Dr. Mott is a graduate of a Cincinnati medical college, class 1883, and afterward took instructions abroad, later becoming a specialist and investigator of kidney diseases. For nearly twenty years he has revealed to science that kidney diseases can be checked, the patient restored to normal weight and enabled to resume work.

The following is a statement from Dr. Mott: "My method is intended to arrest the disease, even though it has destroyed most of the kidney, and to preserve intact that portion not yet destroyed. The medicines I use are for the purpose of neutralizing the poisons that form a toxine that destroys the cells in the tubes of the kidneys, and my success in the treatment of kidney diseases is enough to convince physician and patient alike, that science has mastered hitherto 'incurable disease, physiologically speaking." Dr. Mott invites the afflicted to send their symptoms and to ask for his free expert opinion. He will send you his essay on kidney troubles.
