the same road Mr. King left today to
assume his new duties. The appoint
ment to Garden City came from E. A.
Austin, formerly superintendent of this
division but who IS now in charge of
the new La Junta division. The change
is a decided promotion Although Gar
den City is 4 smaller town than Wei
lington, it is a VIGOROUSLY hard job to
fill. Many men have been tried with
out success, and the selection of Mr..
King by Mr.. Austin is a tribute to the
formers ability. An increased salary
goes with the new job. He will be sue
ceeded here by Relief Agent Gum,
who assumed charge this afternoon.

More Peruna is sold because people
who have taken it recommend it to
