The Breeze has no money to put into and artesian well, if it had, so much would not he said in these columns on that subject, but the work should he done, because we have enough faith in the project to believe such an expenditure would be fruitful. Anything that would bring people here to live, for edu cational and healthful purposes would be beneficial to the town. All enterprises of a public nature that will benefit the masses, such as schools, churches, artesian wells, libraries, good lights and a rigid, though just municipal government pours money into the pockets of every citizen by the enhanced value of property and the general growth of business in every line. At this particular time there is nothing we can think of that would do as much for Douglas as an artesian well, and there is nothing more needed. Spain’s Greatest Need. Mr. R. P. Olivia, of Barcelona, Spain spends his winters st Aiken, S, C. Weak nerves had caused severe pains in the back of his head. On using Electric Bitters, America’s greatest blood and nerve remedy-, all pain soon left him. He says this grand medicine is what his country needs.

If weak, tired or ailing you need it. Every bottle guaranteed, only 50 cents. Sold by W. W. Terrell, druggist. The Griffins Brothers Cos., Jacksonville. The Breeze is in receipt of a cir cular letter from the above named firm in which it is informed of the removal of the office headquarters to Jacksonville, from Macclenny, Fla.

Fashionable hats arriving daily at the Misses Douglases. Buy one. B. T. Allen, of Pearson, was in Douglas Tuesday on legal business. We are having delightful weather now. Get a hat trimmed in the latest style at the Misses Douglases. “No water, no water” is the con tinual complaint in this section now. Mrs. M. J. Summerlin, of Pear son, was in Douglas Tuesday. She came on legal business. Wiley Vickers was in town Mon day, and looked as natural as a run down shoe. Have you seen those beautiful fall and winter hats the Misses Douglases are selling? If you are in need of any job printing now is the time to get it done. Mr. M. Kirkland, of Kirkland, was in town Tuesday to look after legal business. Pretty new belt-buckles just re ceived at the Misses Douglases, only 25c. Dr. J. A. Montgomery, of Thompson, Ga., is now located in Douglas. Mr. Wilkins, the Buck hotel man, is a hustler, and the hotel is growing more popular every day. Mrs, M. L. Goodyear and her daughter Miss Ira, of Waycross, are out at Gaskin’s Spring. Mr. J. S. Lott, of Shepherd, came into see us Monday and gave us an order of job printing. Some of the boys and girls are grieving because there will be hut iittle syrup for candy-pulling. The Misses Douglases are ex pecting you to cull and look at their fall millinery which is arriv ing daily. Work on the residences of Messrs. C. E. Baker and F. W. Dart is progressing nicely. Col. Sellars has had the cupolo taken off his residence and had it otherwise improved. Mr. G. F. Wooten, Brad Wat son’s clever clerk visited Waycross last Sunday and returned Monday. That clever old friend of ours, Micajah Vickers was shaking hands with friends and talking about le gal affairs in town last Monday. Bro. Poston preached a very in teresting sermon last Sunday. His theme was on the "second coining of Christ.” S. W. Hitch, Esq., ofWaycross, was in Douglas on legal business Tuesday. He reports Mrs. Hitch’s condition as improving. All kinds of dress-making, latest styles, and as cheap as good work can be done by the Misses Doug lases. Dr. T. J. Kirkland, of Kirkland, Ga., was in Douglas last Monday and put an advertisement in the Breeze. He does work cheap. Douglas is like all other rapidly building up towns, infested with some people that expect to live without work. Latest styles, md every color imaginable in ribbons at the Miss es Douglases’ millinery establish ment on Ward avenue. Dr. Powell has notified Ordinary Young, that he has room at the asylum for the lunatics now con fined in jail. We receive reports daily about the woods being on 'fire. It is supposed that it is caused by hunters smoking while out hunting. O. Rudolph, this place, wants to sell out his millinery business, and will rent his store to the pur chaser. Reason for selling, Mrs. Rudolph’s bad health. There is one thing needed in this place, and that is water. We have drank so much red mud recently that we are turning brown like a brick. Some one who has two or three hundred dollars to spare, can buy a good, well selected stock of millinery, and rent the store in which the goods are stored by ap plying to, or writing to O. Ru [dolph, Douglas, Ga. ington county. / Full upper and lower set of teeth, $16.00. T. J. Kirkland, D. D. S., Kirkland, Ga. Mrs. Geo. F.

Walker, our genial mayor, has gone to Ocilla, where he intends to locate and practice law. Douglas loses a good citizen and a polished gentleman. Bro. Jessie Lott, of Broxton, was in Douglas Monday. Glad to know that he is sufficiently well enough to be among his friends again. Mr. Gus. L. Brack has been elected secretary of the Methodist Sunday school to fill the vacancy caused by the removal of Col. J. j. Walker to Ocilla. Remember the Breeze will he a sixteen page paper next week. Every man that has anything to sell should not fail to speak for space. Don’t think that we can’t put your advertisements and job print ing in good shape, because we can. Our Waycross Job Office is in the same building with the newspaper out-fit, and no one in this section has better material. It is the opinion of the Breeze, and others, too, that much of the fire in the woods is caused by hun ters’ paper wadding and cigarette smokers. You know if a boy can tout a shot-gun he wants a cigarette between his lips. “Best on the market for coughs and colds and all bronchial troubles ; for croup it lias no equal,” writes Henry R. Whitford, South Canaan, Conn., of One Minute Cough Cure. W. W. Terrell, Douglas, Ga., 11. Meeks & Cos., Nichols, Ga.

Beware of dangerous counterfeits. W. W. Terrell, Douglas, Ga., 11. Meeks &Cos., Nichols, Ga. Waycross Journal: "Misses Dol lie and Agnes Freeman came down from Douglas Monday and spent several hours in the city.” Yes, it’s a hard matter to keep girls satisfied. When they lived there they had a "hankering” to come here, now they "hanker” to go there. Chester H. Brown, Kalamazoo, Mich.,.says: "Kodol Dyspepsia Cure cured me of a severe case of indigestion; can strongly recom mend it to all dyspeptics.” Digests what you eat without aid from the stomach, and cures dyspepsia.
