Wants to Hear From M. A M. About
Georgia Road Taking Off Train®.
To The Hor.dd:
On next Tuesday the ease of the Oeor

railroad commlaaion of Georgia. The
roud la asking to take off the two fa at
traina which were put on last May and
alao tin Buekhoad train which arrive®
in Augusta at 11 a. m. and leavea at
1:4 T* p in. The faat train arrive® In
Augusta shortly after K p. in. each da\
ami leaves ft fr Atlanta at 12:30 p. in.
Not since the filing of this petition hav®
I heard of our Merchants & Manufac
turers Association investigating the mut
ter one way or the other. it in pos
sible that. business condition® may
Justify the Georgia 1n taking off these
trains Personally I do not believe that
they Justify that road in taking off all
nf them, even If it Justifies the discon
tinuance of Rut the point I wish
to make is that the Merchants «& Manu
facturers’ Association, supposed to he
the guardians of Augusta’s commercial
interests, should do one of two things:
Either Mily that, after Investigation, It
finds Mr Wickershnni Is right about
asking l<* take off the trains ami that
Augusta will acquiesce in it, so far as
lli it body is concerned, or that It is not
right to take off these trains and go to
Atlanta and fight for Augusta's right®
before the commission. There should
l*« no silenc e from the M, K M. on such
an important matter. Sa> one of two
things If the M. K- M. has been shown
that business is h<* had that the Geor
gia should i e allowed to take off the
trains, say so. Let the people know
something about what the M. & M. Is
doing.
And I wish to *sy the same thing with
reference to the petition of the Au
gusta-Aiken to double Its fare® between
here anil Aiken l*ot the M. & M. make
iin Investigation and come out and say
whether or not the railroad should be
allowed to do so. If It should not then
le.s oppose it If the road should dou
b!e Its ‘fares lets nil prepare fiW the

PLAIN PEOPLE.
A Defence of the Soda Founts on
Sunday
To The 1 lemld
1 have load with Interest the arti
cles In the*** columns on the recently do
fcnlcl 'Unlit lid" measure, which as
you will nnu mber was to close up
evt*'> thing In AmfUels except the pre
scription •lepirtment of drug stores, and
the »ilo of Ico during the summer
months
From the signatures of these articles
I bellow 1 can rightly dec!lice the fact
that these parties make It their life
work to strutted against the alleged ho
Clal cells, ivoin their ihiliil of view. Now
with full apologies to the above-men
tioned parties, and with the Idea that
every one has a right to his own opin
ions I will try to lay mine bsfore the
genfral public.
As you know the older people can be
satisfied with a quiet evening or rather
afUAnoon at home, a chat over the tea
table In the rvenlng and a solemn
pmnisji ide to church at night. Which
Is all very well for them. This class
Is composed of people who no longer
have to think about tbetr future, and
must be dignified in all tlielr actions.
Hut what about the other class, those
who are Just learning to live, those
who are active and gay who are no
doubt shut up In wig office, or per
haps factory, with SrnWlay as their only
day ~f liberty? Why should they not en
joy themse ves, may 1 ask? Kid tied
put us on eattb lo be solemn and digni
fied from our early childhood? Would
IK give us health and gay vigorous
spirit*. If we were not meant to en
loy them? Why look at the vary HI -
hie Itself. Here we learn that Adam and
Kve were placed tn the Harden of Kden
with every thing that the heart could
wish. Ihd not Hod mean for them to
lead happy lives? Then why should we.
who arc merely human be dented what
utle amusement we have now?
1 don't wish to create the Impreaston
that 1 would tolerate the so-called
"fake" grocery stores, and fruit stands,
which are run generally. l>y foreigners
for these places are mostly dirty and
111-kept and could easily be used at a
blind for a ''blind tiger" or "dope Joint."
Far from It, My plea Is for the soda
founts that art run In connection with
licensed drug stores, places where anj
gentleman would carry a lady Why
should there he opposition to this? Then
again you should remember that all of
us are not so fortunate as to have a
home to entertain our friends In. You
know Augusta Is no longer a country
tohm hut a large city, and must nec
essarily contain a good many young
people who must live In boarding houses,
which at best only bsvo a public |cir
lor So why sbou d we bf denied the
privilege of enjoying a little refresh
ment with our friends on the only day
In the week, which many of us have at
our disposal? My dear friends, why do
\OU wish lo take away the one little
Sunday pleasure which w« may enjbv
In the afternoon, after Runday-ecliool
and before time for church that night?
Will you think this over? 1 thank you!

CALOMEL TODAY.
SICK TOMORROW
Dose of nasty calomel makes
you sick and you lose a
day's work.
Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel aets like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes Into
contact with sour bile It crashes Into
It, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and g">t a 50 cent
bottle of Dodson’s T.lver Tone, which
Is a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
ar.d If It doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up hetter and quicker
than nasty calomel and without mak
ing you slek, you just go back and get
your money.
If you take calomel today you’ll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides
It. may salivate you. while If you take
Dodson’s T.iver Tone vou will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and
ready for work or nlav. Tt's harm
less, pleasant and safe to give to chil
dren: they like It.

A BAD CASE
AND ITS RELIEF
Lady Tells Details of Ten Years
Of Suffering Which Now
Lies Behind Her.
Wallace, Va.—Mrs. Mary Vest, of
this town, says: "About ten years ago,
I had very poor health, and for five
years It stetrally got worse. I could
not stand on my feet. I got so I could
only drag about In the room. Most
of the time I was not able to do my
work.
I had terrible bearing-down pains,
inv hack ached all the time and was
very weak. I could scarcely carry
anything and suffered agony when I
lifted anything. The muscles in my
abdomen were so weak I could scarce
ly lift myself up straight, and I
thought 1 would surely grow crooked.
I had difficulty In walking, it was so
painful. I suffered in hips and back
and could hardly raise up at all. At
times. I couldn’t sit on the chair—
would have to lie down. I was in such
agony. I just sat around and cried.
At this time, about five years r.go,
I began to take Cardul, at my mother’s
Insistence. After two or three weeks'
use I saw an Improvement. The pains
got less gradually until they disap
peared. In two months I could walk
without pain and could do most of ray
work. For about three years my Im
provement was steady and continued
until 1 had back my health and
strength.
The cure has been permanent, for I
have been in good health for the past
two years, due to my having taken
Cardul, which effected the cure.”
All druggists sell Cardul. Try it.
