Facts About The
GREAT MAJESTIC RANGE
It is the only range in the world made of Mallea-
ble and Charcoal Iron.
It has, bevond any question of a doubt, the largest
and best reservoir.
It uses about half the fuel used on other ranges,
and does better work by far.
The Majestic All Copper Nickeled Reservoir heats
the water quicker and hotter than any other. It Is the
only reservoir with a removable frame.
The Charcoal Iron Body of the Great Majestic
Range lasts three times as long as a steel body.
Being ma Je of non-breakable material, there is
practically no expense for repairing the Majestic.
As for baking, it is perfection: not only for a few
months, but for all time to come.
A 6REAT MAJESTIC RAN6E lasts three times as long as
a cheap range, but it don't cost three times as much.
PROOF—We don't ask you to take our word for any
of the above statements, but if you will call at our
store, a man from the factory, where Majestic Ranges
are made, will prove to your satisfaction that these are
absolute facts, and will show you many more reasons
why the Great Majestic Range is absolutely the best
that money oan buy.

THE BELL COUNTY DEMOCRAT 50c PER YEAR
AMITY'S BUDGET.
After waiting for sometime to
see some news from Amity we
have failed, so we will endeavor
to write something from this place.
It seems that the correspondents
of the Democrat are busy or have
decided to abandon the best paper
in the county.
Let's wake up, one and all, and
make things buzz with our local
news, as our good editor will sure-
ly publish our items if we will
write them.
This place was visited last night
by a good rain, which was needed
and appreciated by all.
Our school is progressing nicely
under the management of Prof.
Gilleland.
The Salado public school boys
came out Friday and engaged our
boys in a ball game, which was
won by the visiting team, the
score being twelve to eight. Hur-
rah! boys.
Several persons from this place
attended the show at Belton
Thanksgiving. They all say it
was fine.
Horace Duke and Colonel Yar-
borough were in this community
Thursday quail hunting.
Mr and Mrs. H. W. Barrett have
returned from a two weeks visit
to their daughter's, in Haskell
County. They seemed to like the
country fine.
Walter Brown and G. T. Smith
made a business trip to Belton one
day last week.
G. A. Proctor has finished his
new rent house. Here are compli-
ments to the man who is to occupy
it.
The oublic lartre are invited
o come to the school house Satur-
day night, as there is to bt a de-
bate and a r23r£an:*?.tion of out
Literary Society. Come out and
help us, one and al). Tne subject
for discussion is: Resolved that
Santa Anna Should Have Been Ex
ecuted at The Time of his Capture,
by the Tex.n army.
C. W. Blalock has returned from
^n cxtencVd hunting trip to Sounth
Texas. He reports a good time
while ror«*.
J. N. Griffin has purchased a
new Cassadav plow. I guess that
"Lee" intends to plow some real
soon.
Homer Barnes went to Belton
lastt night to meet his brother,
Albert, who has been in Coleman
county for some time.
Some of Amity's boys went pe-
c-n hunting today, but failed to
find any nuts.
-.As we can't think of anything
else to write, we win close again
if this misses the wastebasket.
Success to the Democrat.

made of natural digestive juices

ach trouble. Sold by Belton Drug
