No Water in Augusta.

The water situation in Augusta is 80
acute that the people are getting on
edge about it. There is one fire en-
CINE pumping river water with all its
mud and filth into the mains down
town, another in the middle Of the
city pumping through the courtesy Of
the Riverside mills and another in the
southeastern locality. Efforts are be-
ing made to install another and Con-
tractor W. J. Oliver, is shipping an
other outfit to rush the work on the
canal.
Meanwhile the inconvenience and
actual suffering is acute. The water
Is not fit for cooking or for anything
except flushing and it smells bad at
that. This is crude talk, but it is de-
manded by the situation. Every bit
Of drinking and cooking water has
to be purchased or treasured from the
supply given out by the street railway =
and Others as if it was gold. There
has been but one rain since the freshet
and the dust is something awful. It
chokes and blinds and even the in
terror of houses are covered with it.
The pressure in the mains is prac-
tically nothing and the fire insurance
companies representatives are much
worried. The board of health is do
ing all it can as are the city officials,
but Augusta is place OF evil smells
lust now.

chairman of the committee, showed
his faith by his work, and everything
was in readiness for the Union meet
ing the fifth Sunday in August.
After the Union the protracted
meeting begans which continued four
days. Rev. Wood Corder, of the Al
ken association, did the preaching,
and large crowds attended the servi-
ces. Rev. Corder preached with
much earnestness and eight members
were added to the church.
The church seems to be united,
very much revived and ready for bet
ter work. K. }. FallaW.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ordinary
colds and recovered from them without
treatment of any kind, do not for mo-
ment imagine that colds are not dan
gerous. Everyone knows that pneu-
monia and chronic catarrh have their
origin in common cold. Consumption
is not caused by cold but the cold pre-
pares the system for the reception and
development of the germs that would
not otherwise have found lodgment.
1t is the same with infectious diseases.
Diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles and
whooping cough are much more likely
to be contracted when the child has a
cold. You will see from this that more
real danger turks in a cold than in any
other of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure a cold
is to take Chamberlain Cough Rem
dy. The mauy remarkable cures effect
ed by this preparation have made it a
staple article of trade over large part
of the world. For sale by Kaufman
Drug Co.

More Than Enough is Too
Much,

To maintain health, a mature man or
woman needs just enough food to repair
the waste and supply energy and body
heat. The habitual consumption Of
more food than is necessary for these
purposes is the prime cause of stomach
troubles, rheumatism and disorders of
the kidneys. If troubled with indiges-
tion, revise your diet, let reason and not
appetite control and take few doses Of
Chamberlain Stomach and Liver Tab
let's and you will soon be all right again.
