Local Agent Bridges of the At
lantic Coast Line has been mott
fed that fast trains Nos. 80 and IS
will not be stopped at Dillon
after Nov. 14th. The reason as
signed for the discontinuance of
the stops at Dillon is that a new
train will be put on between New
York, Atlanta and Jacksonville
that will take care of the through
travel north and south. TIE new
train is scheduled to arrive at
Dillon at 8 as southbound and
8. as p. m northbound. Dillon is
very we'll satisfied with her pre-
sent schedules and will make a
protest at the change. A special
meeting of the Chamber of Com.
merce has been called to take
some action in the matter and it
is probable that resolutions will be
passed requesting the Coast Line
not to make the change. The
trains cannot be taken off without
the consent of the Railroad Com

Nothing can stand in the way O

Nothing can stand in the way of
progress. In less than 20 years
an amendment to the constitution
will make possible the formation
of new county out of the extreme
upper end of Marion and the
lower end of Marlboro, with much
less than 400 miles of area. By
forming a new county. out of the
upper end of Marion the people
are doing only what ought to have
been done 10 years ago and after
the new county is formed they
will awake and exclaim, oh, we
are just up with the times!'

No Rest
Day or Night

"I would lay awake for hours
without any apparent cause, or
dream terrible dreams which
would bring on extreme spells
of nervousness. After taking
DR.. Miles Nervine and Tonic
for awhile I could sleep well,
and the nervous spells have left
me-" MISS ALMA HUG,
R. R, No. 4, Canal Dover, Ohio.
Without sleep the nervous
system soon becomes a wreck,
and the healthful activity of all
the organs obstructed. Restful,
bodybuilding sleep accompanies
the use Of DIR. Miles Nervine
because it soothes the irritable
nerves, and restores nervous
energy. When taken few days
according to directions, the most
restless sufferer will find sleep
natural and healthful. Get a
bottle from your druggist. Take
it all according to directions, and
if it does not benefit he will re-
turn your money.
