800 CARS OF ROCK
is GIVEN To CITY.
In Improvement of Jackson
Street.
sEARoARD HAS PROMISED THIS.
President Barr Writes That His Com.
pany viii Assist the City, as For
merIy Agreed, in the Improvement
of That Important Street

With three hundred carloads OF
gravel at its disposal for the grading
and paving of Jackson street, the city
council will very soon proceed with
the work, long contemplated, of con-
verting that eyesore into one of the
best paved streets for it's length to be
found IN the state.
For the Seaboard is going to do its
part, and the city will do the rest.
This statement, now given authori-
tatively, will be re ,eived with pleasure
by citz sns of Americus generally, who
for years have hoped that the city au-
thorities would improve Jackson.
Tnis is one of the city's main tn )r
oughfares, leading from the business
centre to The Saaboard passenger sta
ton, but, by reason If it's topography,
difficult TO maintain IN order. Nothing
but rock ballast, and thousands of tons
of it will suffice for the work needed.
And to great extent the Seaboard
company is alike interested.
By reason of the heavy grades in the
street the draying of goods over it is
accomplished with difficulty, and the
suggestion that the company aid the
city in the work was agreed to.
1t will cost the railroad company sew.
eral thousand dollars to put 800 car
loads of Alabama gravel here, but the
investment will be permanent and last
ing in its benefit. Recently President
j. III. Barr visited AmerIcus and looked
at the proposed work here.
Upon his return to Portsmouth he
wrote Mr.. Edward Stallings, travelling
freight agent, as follows:
Portsmouth, Va, March 10Th. Mr.
Edward Stallings, Americus, Ga
Dear Sir-I have your favor 9th inst,
and in reply beg to say that we will
provide 800 cars gravel and deliver il
at Americus, at our cost, for the i'm
provement of Jackson street between
the city and our depot. This is to be
done during 1904. undert tsnd that
the proposition is for the city authori.
ties to put the gravel in place
Yours truly, J, Nj. BARR.
This letter was received yesterday,
and Mr.. Stallings and Agent E. B.
Everett were gratified thereat.
These gentlemen have been specially
interested in securing the concession
from the company, and their zeal and
perseverance is appreciated. Not only
will Jackson street be beautified there
by but the business of the Seaboard
will be benefited as well, as shown
above.
The street will be brought very nearly
to perfect level from the Sheffield
corner to the railroad tracks.
By this change drays can haul at a
load three times the weight of freight
now pulled, thus facilitating the busi-
ness of merchants. The street will be
laid twelve inches deep in gravel, hard
surfaced, while the walks will be laid
in brick all the way and granite curbed.
The city council will, at an early date,
inaugurate this great work,

Dodson's Pharmacy Guarantee to
Refund Money If Hyomei Fails
to Cure the Worst Case
of Catarrt

1t is no uncommon thing to see q
medicine advertised as a guaranteed
cure" But investigation usually
shows that the guarantee is made by
some unknown firm, hundreds of miles
away.
The guarantee, though, that comes
with Hyomei, is entirely different. It
is made by Dodson's Pharmacy, one of
the most reliable drug firms, in this
section.
They advertise that if Hyomei does
not cure the worst case of catarrh,
they will return the money without
any question or argument. No bust
ness house in Americus has a better
reputation for square dealing than
Dodson's Pharmacy, and when they
guarantee that they will refund the
money if Hyomei fails to cure catarrh,
no one has any question as to the
agreement being lived up to, both in
the spirit and letter.
& Hyomei is very easy and pleasant to
use. Just breathe 1t through the lit
| tie inhaler that comes with every
outfit; every breath will bring recover y
so much the nearer. II kills all the
germs of catarrhal trou bles in the air
passages of head, throat, and lungs,
soothes and heals the irrItated mucous
membrane, and is the only natural
cure for catarrh.
The complete outfit costs but one
dollar, and extra bottles of Hyomei
can be obtained for fifty cents. Do
not let slight catarrhal trouble de-
velop into one that may be serious
and chronic. Use Hyomei at once, re-
membering that you run no risk what
ever when you try Hyomei on Dodson's
