The Georgia Southern & Flor¬ ida Ry., in addition to their fa¬ mous Pullman Buffet trains, “Quick Step“ and “Dixie Flyer,“ have inaugurated the fastest Pull¬ man line in the South between Macon and Tampa, the route be¬ ing Georgia Southern & Florida to Jasper and Plant system to fampa, leaving Macon daily at 11:28 p. m., arriving in Tampa 2:30 p. m. next afternoon; return¬ ing, leave Tampa 10:15 a. m., ar¬ riving in Macon at 4 a. m. As the names of its two Jacksonville Pullman trains have become household words, it desires to christen it3 new route with a name that will be as appropriate and popular as its two sisters. Mr, G. A. Macdonald, General Passenger Agent, Macon, has therefore offered a prize of ten dollars in gold for the most ap¬ propriate name, bearing in mind that the train passes the famous Suwanee River by daylight. All that is necessary is to send in this clipping, giving name of pa¬ per and date, together with the name and address of one or more persons who expect to visit Flor¬ ida this season, to G.

Now I weigh over 126 pounds and am in better health than for the past fifteen years. Formerly I was covered with eruptions; now my akin is clear.

A Milton county farmer went to Atlanta last week to carry some produce. He stopped at a wagon yard. He broke out with measles and nobody could be found to give shelter. The Grady hospital refused him admission because he had a contagious dis¬ ease. The poor man, suffering with a high fever, could not find a place to be cared for, and his friends had to haul back, sick as he was, to his country home. If the man had been stricken with leprosy he could not have met with more inhuman treatment— Ex. DEAFNESS CANNOT BE Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of th® ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an iaflamod condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear ing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its nor¬ mal condition, hearing will be de¬ stroyed forever, nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condi¬ tion of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness caused by catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J.

I consider it a strictly high grade up-to-date wheel in every detail of design, material, con¬ struction and finish, and is fully equal, if not superior to many of the best $100.00 wheels sold on the market hero. I believe the Acme frame is the strongest and most rigid and the most graceful and lightest frame built. It is a beauty among beauties, and can¬ not fail to satisfy. Yours truly, Chas.
