But of course every day cannot be a top-notcher when It comes to attendance. Plumbing guarantees the removal from the house and premises where it has been installed of filth and refuse. Where there is no plumbing, the filth is thrown in to the yard or alley. It sinks into the.ground, where it breeds nauseating odors and myriads of dangerous germs of disease. therefore, as a practical proposition, regardless of all considerations of comfort aqd convenience, plumb ing pays. It saves doctor’s bills. It makes health ful conditions where sickness has been prevalent. \ Summer is at hand. Can you take the risk' pf being without plumbing jn your home during the heated term? The question answers itself. See .us about the details. Late In the afternoons now the sound of the ranking hose Is heard in the land. Then the people get out and give the lawns thorough drenchlngs. Without this some of them would not show up nearly as well as they' do. WOOD! WOOD! OAK AND PINE. Cruger & Pace.

The heat today Is a good deal above the average. The morning started off warm, and all day the record has been kept up. When at breakfast time the nir Is still and a sort of subdued glare —that Is hardly noticed unless looked for—Is all around, It Is an unfailing sign of a warm day. Mr. J. M. Tift landed a beautiful striped bass, or rock fish, weighing somewhere In the neighborhood of ten pounds, yesterday afternoon, and ex hibited his trophy with a light steel fly rod with which he said the fish was conquered In the rupids of the Muckafoonee just below the Power Company’s dam. A Drldse of Cocodlles. A traveler writes of a port lu north western India: “The great sight of Karachi Is the sacred crocodile pre serve at Magar Plr, some seven miles off. There are hot springs here which feed n shallow tank containing nearly a hundred crocodiles. The story, usu ally thought to ho fictitious, of the Eng lishman who for a bet crossed the tank by Jumping successively from the backs of these crocodiles is based ou tact The hero of this foolhardy feat was a certain Lieutenant Berosford, a friend of Sir R. H;Burton. When Bur ton. and Ills companion were visiting the crocodiles’ tank they noticed that these reptiles and certain islets of reeds happened to make an almost continu ous bridge across the tank. This prompted the daring subaltern to haz ard the font of crossing by hopping from one crocodile to another. To the amazement of the spectators he suc ceeded In this apparently mad attempt. Sir Richard Burton had already suc cessfully performed an equally daring feat He managed to muzzle a croco dile by means of a lasso and then jumped ou the reptile’s back and en joyed a somewhat zigzag ride." A tale of horror was told by marks of human blood In the home of J. W. Williams, a well-known merchant of Bao, Ky. He writes: “Twenty years ago I had severe hemorrhages of the lungs, and was near death when I be gan taking Dr. King’s New Discovery. It completely cured me and I have re mained well ever since.” It cures Hemorrhages, Chronic Coughs, Set tled .Colds and Bronchitis, and is the only known cure for Weak Lungs.

With the representation from Quin cy, Fla., missing and Its absence un accounted for, the meeting which was held at the City Hall here yesterday afternoon by representatives of the five communities through which It Is proposed to build a new railroad, was not altogether thd success that had been anticipated by those who are fos tering the movement and who were most sanguine of the material results of yesterdays’ meeting. In spite of the fact that the Quincy delegation was' not present and that no explanation’ of Its absence could be made, the meeting went right ahead with the preliminary work of building a railroad. After considerable discus sion of various suggested methods of procedure, It was decided that a com mittee of two from each of the coun ties through which the proposed road will pass be appointed, the duties of this committee being to secure rights- of-way in each of the counties, ter minal facilities at each of the five towns to be touched by the' road, and to raise a cash fund of $8,t)00, to be used, if necessary, In having a survey made, In securing a charter, and In presenting; the project In attractive form before capital. ... ft, was,, decided that the fairest ap portionment of this $8,000 expense, fund would be on a basis of, mileage, each county contributing In propor tion to the number of miles of road that would pass through that county. Under this allotment Albany and Dougherty county will be expected to contribute 31,000 to this fund. Those who represented this community at the meeting felt that they were safe in promising that such an amount could be raised here. The railroad whloh It Is proposed to build under this plan is from Albany, as a northern terminus, to Quincy, Fla., as a southern terminus. The road will touch at Newton. Camilla, Cairo, and at Quincy It is hoped that ar rangements can be made with con necting lines to give Albany a through trunk line to St. Joseph, Fla., a deep water port. As might be expected from condi tions which obtain at the several places on this proposed, railroad, Al bany was not so enthusiastic over this railroad project as were some of the other towns. This was explained by the Albanians present on the grounds that Albany already had a number of railroads, and that there were several new lines now being projected In the direction which this proposed road Is to take. Naturally, Albany Is not so vitally Interested In this project as those towns which have only one rail road and are anxious for the great con venience and saving ot another and a competing line. However, the as surance was given that' Albany would contribute towards securing Its suc cess as generously as the conditions here would warrant. Mr. W. B. Roddenberry, of Cairo, who has been the real head of this railroad movement, was chairman of yesterday’s meeting and he gave those present such Information as he had gathered In a careful study of the demand for and prospects of the pro posed road, When It was determined that the further work of projecting this road should be placed in the hands of a committee, he was made chairman of that committee, the per sonnel of which Is as follows: Grady County—W. B. Roddenberry and W. S. Wight. Dougherty County — M. Weslosky and L. E. Welch. Mitchell County—F. L. Lewis and F. S. Perry. Baker County—R. L. Hall and Jno. O. Perry. The committeemen from Gadsden county, Florida, will be appointed by the chairman after conferring with the citizens of Quincy. This committee is expected to un dertake its work at once, and as soon as all are ready to report, a meeting will be called by the chairman. This meeting will probably be held at Al bany some time within the next few weeks. NET OPEN. NET CLOSED “Dixie” Mosquito Frame and Net. The “DIXIE” frame is the only perfectly tempered frame sold.
