MEET THIS MORNING
IN ELLAVILLE.
Masons Gather There from
all Over District.
FIVE CANDIDATES GO FROM HERE
Ameircus Degree Team Will Put on
the Work-Interesting Sessions
Today and Tomorrow.
The Masonic convention of the Third
District gathers at Ellaville this
morning. A number of Masons from
all over the district are expected to
be in attendance and the two days
sessions will be full of Interest and
profit for the craft.
From Americus there went on yes
terday afternoon's train Brothers A
B. Howard, who is secretary of the
Convention, L. J. Blalock, W. P. Mc-
Arthur, G. S. Cobb and A. G. Miller.
With them were out of town Masons,
who stopped over in Americus en route
for Ellaville. Brothers F. M. Chalker,
of Hawkinsville; David Harvey, of
Pineview, John Ard, of Lumpkin; and
Mr. Mitchell, of Rochelle.
This morning probably t-n o’ner
Masons will leave Americus, including
the remainder of the degree team that
is to put on the work at the Conven
tion. With them are expected to go
the candidates, Messrs. A. W. AHison,

ing talker on the work of the Order.
The convention will be called to
order this morning at 10 o'clock by

WHY IT SUCCEEDS.
’ Because It’s for Oue Thing Duly, ami
( Americus People Appreciate This.
Nothing can be good for everything.
Doing one thing well brings suc
cess. Doan’s Kidney Pills do one thing
only.
They._cure sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kiduey
ill.
H. Y. Ferrell, veterinary surgeon,
living at 67 State street, Albany, Ga.,
says: “Although I have never been
laid up by kidney complaint, I have
suffered a great deal with a lame and
aching hack, and have felt like going
to bed on that account often enough.
This dull, heavy pain was with me
for several years. The urine was
also very dark and sluggish, and con
tained a thick sediment. 1 tried all
kinds of remedies, and used prescrip
tions of my own, but without success.
Nothing seemed to take hold until I
procured Doan’s Kdney Pills. They
were exactly suited to my case. Since
using the pills I have not been both
ered with those pains, and the kid
ney secretions have been restored to
a normal color and consistency.”
Plenty more proofs like this from
Americus people. Call at Dodson's
Pharmacy and ask what customers re
port.

While it contiuued hot yesterday it
was not the suffocating heat of Mon
day. Outside of two or three hours

quite pleasant to the man in shirt
sleeves, who was decidedly in the
majority, style giving way to comfort
under a common sense view of the
