headed RAILROAD Meeting" which
meeting was "to take into considera-

with view of securing its location
through the city of Anderson. James

Hon. j. y. Reed on the resolutions Of
fcrcd and adopted: .In supporting this
preamble and resolutions, Mr.. Reed
made an earnest and effective speech,
detailing the history of the en- ntcrprisc
from its inception to the present time,
and impressing the audience with the
necessity for action OH the part of the
citizens Of Anderson"
DR.. W. G. Brown proposed to make
one ofOne hundred persons to subscribe
$500 each at the proper time to the cap

This proposition was accepted by Maj.

who attended those meetings can see
their folly in not raising the required
amount to secure the road.

Some Pertinent Questions That Can Be
Answered With One Reply. Augusta People
Will Find Here Much to Interest Them.

Why is it that Augusta and its
suburbs with its combined population
| of IL 900, there is only one medicinal
| preparation which gives statements
from residents to back up its repre-
sentations?
Why is it that Doans Kidney PliIs
do this in Augusta as in every other
town or city of any importance in the
Union?
Why is it that there are advertised
in every newspaper ii dozen remedies
and only one can supply local PROOF,
local endorsation of its claims?
, The solution Of the problem is simple
Only one remedy has the curing and
staying power.
Other remedies make al! kinds of
gigantic yet futile efforts to get local
proof, but the attempt ends in pro-
ducing a statement or two from places
that as far as Augusta is concerned
might just as we'll live in the moon.
Here is Augusta proof which backs
up the merits.
Mr.. Everett G. Smith, printer, with
the Kennebec journal for the last six
years. says: The more DOan's Kid
ney Pills become known the fewer peo-
pie there will be who suffer from back
ache. My experience With this remedy
which l procured at Charles X. Part
ridges Old Reliable drug store, OPP
posite the postotiice, leads me to this
conclusion. In my case the use ot

oughly relieved me of pain in my back
