Bladder troubles most always result from
a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is
obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you
can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and
bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to* hold urine and scald
ing pain in passing it, and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to
go often during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and sold
by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar
sized bottles. You may
have a sample bottle of
this wonderful new dis
covery and a book that
tells all about it, both Horae of Swamp-Root,

LAsr week two members of the
House of Representatives and a sen
ator declared in session that in the
Georgia legislature lobbyists had
plied their vocation without let or
hindrance, and that legislation had
been improperly influenced. In re
sponse to a resolution adopted-by
the senate, a joint committee of
three senators and five representa
ti\es was appointed to investigate
the charges. Then followed expla
nations and criticisms, the gentle
men making the charges deoiaring
they did not mean to refleot upon
the integrity of any legislator, nor
to say that lobbying in its criminal
application had existed. Last Mon
day three representatives and one
senator resigned their positions on
the investigating committee, bat the
speaker and president refused to ao
cept the resignations. The action
of the committee will be watohed

it difficult to believe that the peach
crop in one county can amount to
500 carloads in one year. Yet nearly
so many carloads were shipped from
Houston this year, and the crop was
nearly 60 per cent short. Next year
a full crop would aggregate nearly
if not fully, 1,000 carloads. With
such possibilities, there should
improvements in packing and ship

Next October many people will
visit the Georgia state fair to learn
something of the capacity of the
state to profitably produce agricul
tural crops. These seekers after an
objeot lesBon will have a purpose to
serve, as many of them will be in
search of the best place to locate as
farmers. Beyond doubt they will
be satisfied with what they see.
Men with money who seek new
homes want to looate where they
oan make more money. They desire
the best available, Therefore, the
county making the best exhibit will
be the most attractive to progress
ive home seekers. Georgia will be
attraotively and profitably illustra

were rewarded with delicious ice
