Americus dopers are due Attorney
General Hart a vote of thanks for a
recent ruling upon the recently en
acted anti-narcotic laws, whereby un
der certain circumstances they may
steam up a bit and view Paradise far
beyond the horizon.
But they must be really rattled for
die ready relief.
In reply to a letter of inquiry, At
torney-General Hart has written a
letter construing the provisions of
the Whitley bill to regulate and re
strict the sale of narcotic drugs.
Judge Hart decides that a physl
elan may furnish such drugs to
patient when necessary for treatment,
and that he may in good faith prc-
»^be such drugs to habitual users
and fill the same in his own drug
store upon issuing and filing a signed
prescription.
Not a few Americus day dreamers,
out ofT from getting morphine and
oocstne here, are ordering the stuff
*rom Montgomery and other cities
autside the state.

Stomach troubles. Heart and Kid'
Bey aliments, can be quickly correct
ed with a prescription known to
druggists everywhere as Dr. Shoop’s
Xestoritlve. The prompt and surprls
kg relief which this remedy irnmed-
tetely brings Is entirely due to its
Restorative action upon the controll-
teff serves of the stomach, etc.
A weak stomach, causing dyspepsia,
A weak heart with palpitation or in
termittent pulse, always means weak
stomach nerves or weak heart nerves.
Strengthen these inside or control-
Iks nerves with Dr. Shoop’s Rcstor
■Ore and see how quickly these all
kents disappear. Dr. Shoop of Racine,
tel*., will mall samples free. Write
ter them. A test will tell. Your health
te certainly worth this simple trial.

First Rule
of Health
Ass your doctor, “ Vhat is the first great rule of
health?” Nine doctors out of ten will quickly
reply, “ Keep the bowels regular.” While you
are about it, ask him another question, “What

We are willing to trust him. Areyou?

LETTER TO N. M. DUDLEY,
Americus, Georgia.
Dear Sir: If a customer wants
$35.50 do you give him $757
Suppose you should hear of one of
your customers doing a thing like
that and not knowing It, what would
you say next time he want3 dis
count?
We'll venture half your men are
doing that very thing without a sus
picion.
Men who alct eny other paint than
Devoe are paying $75 for $35.50 or
some other such figure.
10 gallons Devoe Is enough for a
good-size hous two coats; 15 or 20
Isn’t too much of another paint There
Is $8.75 or $17.50 for 5 or 10 extra gal
lons; besides $2 to $4 a gallon for
putting It on; that's $10 to $40. That
It how half the houses, stores, fac
tories warehouses, shops, barns, and
fences are painted. $50 for paint and
labor; $25 to $50 more for not know
ing what paint to put on.
The one paint to put on is the
paint that takes least gallons and
makes least bills for paint and labor.
Yours truly,
F. W. DEVOE & CO.

Seaboard trains on this division
were delayed yesterday by the bad
WTeck occurring the day before, caus
ed by passenger train'No. 72, Amerl-
cus to Savannah, crashing through the
trestle spanning Gum creek, east of
Helena.
The fact that many were not killed
outright seems miraculous.
The train was not running at a
very high rate of speed at it neared
the bridge, but just a few feet before
the bridge was reached the tender
left the rails. The train, could not
be brought to a sudden stop.
The tender remained connected with
the engine until out on the bridge
when It detached from the engine and
crashed down thirty-five feet below,
pulling the baggage car, express car
and second-class coach after it, the
last remaining on the rails.
There were thirty-five passengers
on the train at the time of the acci
dent, but the majority were white
people In the rear coach.
The injured, so far a can be ascer
tained were;
Criar Wilson, express messenger,
seriously Injured about the head.
w. L. Seigler, baggage master
I right arm badly Injured.
I Two negro railway mall clerks, ser
iously Injured.
j Three negro passengers, Injuries not
so serious.
The injured were brought to McRae
as quick as possible and were given
prompt surgical attention.
The attending surgeons fear that
Express Messenger Wilson’s injuries
may prove fatal. During the smashup
his head came In contact with a case
of sodawater bottles. The others will
probably recover.
It will take time to get thae wreck
age cleared and the track In condi
tion for traffic once more. All who
have been to the wreck express won-
der at the fact that no one was kill
ed outright.
