BRUNSWICK s. BIRMINGHAM TO

ham, and Line VIII Be Extended to
Alabama MetropoIis-very Friendly
With Seaboard.

A reported railroad deal of interest
in Americus came yesterday iEthe in
formation, given ont by CHI l.,
Hyde, chairman of the board of a. yc-
tors of the Brunswick b BIrmiagham
Railway, that his road and the Allan
tic & Birmingham would unite.
Mr.. Hyde, it is said, stated positive
ly that these important lines are to be
consolidated.
This consolidation practically as
sures the building of line as projected
from Brunswick to Birmingham and
will give the Atlantic and Birmingham
tidewater outlet at Brunswick.
Mr.. Hyde stated that the merger OF
tie two roads may take place on March
10, when the option held by the Allan
tic and Birmingham expires.
He also stated that the Seaboard Air
Line and the Atlantic and Birmingham
are very closely allied now, as 7. JEFF

CURES WITHOUT STOMACH DOSING.
Hyomei Cures Catanh by Simply
Breathing Pharmacy
Refund Money If 1t Fails
to Cure.

A long stride toward solving the
mystery of curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery of Hyomei. In fact,
the percentage of cures by this treat
ment proves it equal to the final tests.
The folly of taking medicine into the
stomach to cure catarrh of the nose,
throat and lungs, has been realized by
physicians, but not until Hyomei was
known, had they a practical method
that would obviate stomach drugging,
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, and consists of neat pocket in
haler than can be used anywhere with
out attracting attention, medicine
dropper and bottle of Hyomei.
Breathing Hyomei through the in
haler ever particle of air that enters
the nose, throat and lungs, is charged
with healing balsam that soothes and
allays all irritation, kills the catarrhal
germs and enriches the blood with~ad.
ditional ozone.
Dodson's Pharmacy has so much
faith in the power of Hyomei to cure
catarrh, that they are selling it under
their personal guarantee to refund the
money if it does not give positive re-
| lief.

Here in Sumter,

Bose, Use come arter dat thstty
dollars if you's got it handy" And
with shuttle and bow of his woolly
head the old darkey stood expectantly
before Judge Allen, in the court OF or
dinary yesterday. The Judge adjusted
his glasses and sized him up.
"Oame for aipension did youw he
asked the old darkey, whose eyes by
this time were dancing.
"Sho' did, marster, and bein' as Use
in powerful hurry to git ter de 'socia-
ton l wishes you would please sir
lemme have it now."
But he didn't get $780, looking more
like 80 cents as, crestfaIlen and disap-
pointed, he limped out of the office five
minutes later, the fact that he had
been buncoed boring itself deep into
his bat habitat. Five others who fol-
lowed had the same story.
This was that they expected to get
pension of $50 each,
They had been told positively that
Judge Allen had the money and was
anxious to settle with the bunch at
once. The six old negroes were griev-
ously disappointed at getting nothing.
1t was the same old story of a PEN
sion for ex.slaves, and evidently some
rascal is doing land-office business
about Americus. He collects fee of
81 from ereduIous old negroes for
''helplng" them to get the pension,
telling them the money is here.
Only SIX applicants called on Judge
Allen yesterday, but there are others.

Without HeFpicide.
Did you ever see any one trying to

If you did what would you say Of
him?
It is every bit as foolish to try to get

ness by feeding the germs which cause
It, with Canthrarides, Vaseline Glycer-
inc and similar substances which form
the principal ingredients of most So
