While citizens of Amencusand Sum
ter are quite enthusiastic over tho con.
structlon of the Western A Gulf Hall
way from this city to Hawklnsvllle
the people of Dooly county are, If |
possible, more so, and stand ready and
willing to aid in the enterprise.
All they ask 1, an opportunity to
help build the line which means so
much for them, as for us.
Mr. Crawford Wheatley, one of the
incorporators of the company and who
Is doing a vast deal In pushing the
construction of the road, returned yes'
ierday from a trip through Dooly.
Mr, Wheatley visited Unadllla,
Drayton sndi Vienna, and in each town
was given most cordial assurance of|
the co-operation of citizens in building
the line, Tho wealthiest and most in
fluential people there have heart and
sdul in the enterprise.
Subscriptions of money and lands
for terminal facilities are freely offered
at whatever point the line travels after

Santa Claus will come to the city hall
Monday morning, and each of the
city’s hundred employes having his
hosiery on the Christmas line will "get
a line" upon his month's salary even
before it Is due, in order that all may
felicitate at the ynletlde time.
Thousands of dollara will thus be
paid out by Miss Amerlcus.
The dear spinster is good to those
who work for her and, appreciating
tbeir labors more than individuals do,
will add to their happiness at this glad
season of Christmas.
In recent years, since thorn has al
ways been money in the treasury for
the payment of employee and other
Indebtedness, it has been the custom
to pay all of the city's forces their De-
comber salaries on Xmas eye. Five or
six years ago they were lucky If paid
in January.
And this time there will be no de.

The public man in America who has
never been tagged with a nickname
may be Just ns efficient and worthy of
praise as his brethren who are known
“Bill” and "Joe,” but he has not
achieved an equal measure of popular
ity. Nicknames are oftener inspired by
affection than by aversion. “The men
of the people,” so called, are Invari
ably nicknamed. Venerable citizens
still refer to “Abo” Lincoln, dwelling
with reminiscent affection upon the ab
breviation. Nicknames both good and
bad are as old as bistory. In this coun
try tho people have a way of abbrevi
ating the names of the men they really
like and assigning their full titles to
tho men, who prefer dignity to popular
ity.—Pittsburg Gazette.

C C C PURIFIES ”
diOtwiTHE BLOOD
As every part 0/ the body is dependent on the blood for nourishment
and strength, it is necessary that thfs vital fluid be kept free from germs
impurities and poif ona. As long as it remains uncontaminated we are for'
tified against disease and health is assured; but any humor or impurity acts
injuriously on the system and affects the general health, or ctii«.{^ B tta in
some special Wood disease. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the
different skin affections show that the blood is in a feverish and diseased
condition as a result of too much acid, or the presence of some irritating
humor. Sores and Ulcers are the result of morbid, unhealthy in the
blood, and Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Contagions Blood. Poison, etc
are all deep-seated blood diseases that continue to grow worse as long as the
impurity or poison remains in the circulation. 8ome person* are born with
an hereditary taint in the Wood and we see the effect manifested in various
ways. The skin has a pallid, waxy appearance, the eyes are weak, glands
in the neck often enlarged and usually the body is not fully developed or
6trorg, because it has always been fed on weak, impure blood. In all blood
trov.bles S. S. S. has proved itself a perfect remedy. It goes down into the-
civ.ulation and removes all poisons, humors, waste or foreign matter and
wakes this stream of life pure and health-sustaining. Nothing reaches
aherited Wood troubles like S. S. S.; it removes every particle of taint
purifies and strengthens the weak, deteriorated blood, supplies ft with the-
healthful properties it needs and establishes the foundation for good health
Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Contagious
Blood Poison and all Wood diseases and disorders are cured permanently
by S. S. 8. It is made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, and is the King
of all Wood pnrifiem. Book on the blood and any medical advice desire,!
