RAILROAD RIDDLE
WILL THE CENTRAL BUILD IN-
 TO PENSACOLA
The Movement on Southern Alabama Checker Board by Transporta- Tton Companies is Watched
 With Much Interest.

The most intricate and puzzling matter in railroad circles is a solution of the riddle as to what the intentions of the Central of Georgia Railroad Company are in regard to the port of Pensacola. The Central has not only bearded the lion fin his den, but is becoming a dan gerous competitor of the Florida branch of the Louisville and Nashville The branch of the Central from Albany through Dothan to Sellersville has been extended as far as the town of Florala and daily passenger and freight trains being run into that town. The Central branch crosses the Alabama and Florida branch of the Louisville and Nashville at Sampson, a station q few miles west of Opp. The Central line does not get very close to the Louisville and Nashville's Florala branch until at a station called Paxton, four miles this side of Florala. From there into the town of Florala the two roads parallel each other, only a few yards separating the two tracks.
 The little AlabamaF Florida town is get ting 'up quite a boom. having two rail- roads. and each having separate depots.
 Some time ago 1t was thought that if the Central ever got into Florala it would by some kind of arrangement. use the Yellow River Railroad to get into Pen
  it looks as if it is as far from the cov- eted Pensacola and it's deep water as ever. the Louisville and Nashville hav- ing forestalled tbe Central by buying the Yellow River road.
 Years ago the Survey of an old luni- Der road was made from point near Pollard on the Louisville and Nashville into Pensacola. The story Is that now that the Yellow river scheme is up in smoke so far as the Central is concern ed, the Central will use the survey of this lumber road. building from some joint as near FIorala as possible into Pensa- cola. Nothing definite is known how ever and the future movements of the Central on the Southwest Alabama Northeast Florida checker board will be watched with great interest.
 II looks like "Pansacola or bust is the rnctto of the Central.

BRIGHT'S DISEASE
What tho Symptoms Arc and the
 Treatment Needed to Cure It,
A KiAosy Remedy Thss Has Stood the Test.

There are many symptoms that point to the existence of Bright's Disease. They are, however, not all present in every case, owing to differences of con- stitution. The following are the most prominent, one or more of which are always present: Backache, Auttering in the heart, foul breath, bad taste in the mouth, considerable headache, too many calls to pass urine, dark colored urine containing brick-dust sediment, greasy froth in the urine, albumen in urine, scalding sensations in passing urine, disorder in the stomach and digestion, general weakness, white waxy skin, pufiness in the face about the eyes, burning under the skin, nausea. In the more advanced stages there is swelling of the ankles and legs, difficult breath ing, which develops into delirium fol- lowed by convulsions and death. Re- member; you will not find all these symptoms in every case, backache and albumen are nearly always present, as also irregularities in urine and weak ness. When you find you have any of these symptoms, do not lose a moment in applying to yourself the use of Prickly Ash Bitters, it is your best hope of cure, because it has cured where the best efforts of the attending physician has failed. Use it regularly and faithfully and under its balmy, and strengthening influence the kidneys will be again built up and enabled to discharge their natu- raj functions, the poisons in the blood extracted, the liver, stomach and bowels restored to healthful activity. With the vital organs performing their duties 1 propefly the system is better nourished and gradually the disease-ridden body shakes of its lethargy, and strength and robust health is speedily re-established. Accept no substitute Insist on having
 the genuine prick1y Ash Bitters with the
