Under the mandate cf tin? constltu* ticn of 1377, our fathers established the commission with throe motnbers of whom one must be “of experJe In law” and on« "of experience in railway affairs." This commission, when 1 member of It, coat tho people about $11,000 annually. Governor Smith, however, Inat August, had the number ' of commission Increased to five, be- aides an atorney for the commission, and removed the requirement that Do hoard which regulates the railroads vboulJ have at least one member who Knew something about operating u railroad. Thus under Governor Smith’s domi nance five Irresponsible office seekers Without any qualifications, can be named to supervise tho building of AtpoU, the operation of trains, the adjustment of freight and passenger tariffs and otherwise In the regulat tlan of railroads, which constitute one- seventh of the tuxuble values of our state, bo called upon to protect the welfare of the people of Georgia, hue whose want of qualifications would make.them utterly unfitted for this pesltkai.

The only valuable testimony which any household remedy caq have is the testimony of those who have used it It is worse than useless to discuss Peruna from a theo retical standpoint. It is what Peruna will do, not what people say about it, that constitutes evi dence. The housewives of the United States know what Peruna will do. They have tried it. They have realized its benefit in the family. They are the ones that are competent to speak of it Self-appointed critics know noth ing: of it whatever. Peruna Their Family Medicine. Mrs. Anna C.

"My sister, who is JivIngTwith mo, uses Peruna, too, and sho is loud in its praises.

Walnut street, Bucyrus, O., writes: "I was suffering from obstinsto con stipation and torpid liver, when I took your advice and purchased six bottles of Peruna and Manalin. When 1 had taken only one bottle I felt much better, and since I have taken two more bottles I feel entirely well, but I will contlnnc taking the medicine for a short timo to make sure of my cure. "I think Manalin is one of the finest remedies for constipation that I tried. I will never be without it. It has made me so strong. I can do a day’s work and never tiro. I am' ao glad I do not get those dizzy spells any more. I haven’t had one since 1 took your medicine. "1 cannot thank yon enough for what your medicine has done for me. All sick people should give it a fair trial,” Kidneys and Bladder. Mrs. Gu*. H. Carlson, Box 201, Orton- ville, Minn., writes: "I had catarrh of tho kidneys and bladder. I have taken Peruna until now, and I do not think I need to take It s.uy longer. “I feel wMI, and my tongue is clear, and I have no bitter taste in my mouth, am very thankful for Peruna.” Backache, Headache. Mrs. Treble Nelson,000 N. Fifth Ave., Nashville, Tenn., writes: “As Peruna hng done mo a world of good, I feel in duty bound to tell of it. In hopes that it may meet tho eyo of some woman who has suffered as I did. For five years I really did not know what a perfectly well day was, and If I did not have headache, I had backache a pain somewhere and really life was not worth the effort I made to keep going. 'A good friend advised me to use Peruna and I Mas glad to try anything, and I am very pleased to say that six bottles mado a new woman of mo and I have no more pains and life looks bright again.” Catarrh of Bowels. Mrs. Maggie Durbin, 1332 North street. Little Rock, Ark., writes: "I was troubled for five years with a. chronic disease. I tried everything I heard of, but nothing did me any good. Some doctors said my ^rouble was ca tarrh of the bowels, and some said con sumption of the bowels. One doctor said he could cure me. 1 took his medi cine two months, but it did me no good- A friend of mine advised me to try Pernna and I did so. After I had taken two bottles I found it was helping me, so 1 continued its use, and it has cured e sound and well. “I can recommend Peruna to anyone, and if anyone wants to know what Pernna did for me if they will write to me I will answer promptly.” $2,000,0400 per tannin, but Jl«l It with] -Let the people of Georgia as:ircr enj 1 ** 1 to be adopted*or we re- SOME IMPORTANT MEASURES such Ulacrotlcn that the railroads In-j juue 4tb, whether or not they approve *-**>llltatlcn c;,r Industrie*, the <T,aiet] Ibelr .arnlagn noil pronprri'tl I r * •• nove;' bt^cr?, Gcvcra-r SJnltb'a j ^■otaiulMi!*.. hi.’ '.cJoc.il the p4*2!-£: rati-.i to privllcgril claanpg ami la* rreaatil Ibcm to tbe neoeial public and lu chairman, whu dual.
