In many sections of the State the
question OF trespass is a serious one,
and largely through the action Of the
grange laws have been enacted to pro-
tect the farmers and land owners from
this evil, it being unlawful to enter
upon lands that are posted The dam
age done to farm lands by trespassers
consists chiefly in tramping down
growing crops and leaving open gates.
bars, or fences, letting cattle onto
the growing crops. The State has
also severe laws against trespassers
on State lands, and wardens are au-
thorlzed to arrest, without warrant,
violators OF the law. The damage
done by trespassers in this case con
sists in firing OF woods or the catching
OF fish or killing OF game, by fl ner-
men and hunters. II the protection OF
our crops and the growing timber and
animal life on tie public domain be OF
so much Importance. how much more
important is the saving of human life?
We are all familiar with tse mighty
efforts being made to check the raw
ages OF tuberculosis, and the grange
has taken an advanced position on that
question. Sanatariums are establish
ed with State aid; Red Cross societies
everywhere are laborng to lessen the
de.:h of the great white plague, and
through these mighty efforts the death
roll OF tuberculosis was reduced 555
in 1908, as compared with 1000. truly
great result and worthy OF the highest
commentator. But there is another
gaunt horror stalking throughout our
land, entirely preventable, which is
scarcely thought oi-the killing Of
people who are trespassers on cur
railroads. and who are run down by
trains.
Few people realize The enormous
loss OF life from this cause. Our rail
| roads are called handssof steel binding
| together our country They could well
be called a trail OF blood, but for which
| the roads are i'll no way to blame. On

Of the people will walk on the railroad

respect for the law, at once cease this
and example do what we can to dis
courage it in others? Every death
from this cause is preventable, and IN

good reason for taking the risk If
the practice can be broken up. we will
save double the number OF precious
lives that is being saved by the war on

Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die

GIN 1903 we wrote you regard
ing my husband, who was suf-
fering from heart trouble. He
was superanuated by the North
Georgian Conference. Ten doc
tors at different times said he
would die. You advised DR..
Miles Heart Remedy and Re-
storative Nervine; we did as
advised, and improvement was
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in
1904 gave him a charge. He
never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and does
great deal of camp meeting
work. I am so glad we took
your advice and gave him the
medicine, and feel that I-ought
to let you know of the wonder
full good results from its use"
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS,
Miner, Ga.
This proves what DR.. Miles
Heart Remedy will do. Get a
bottle from your druggist and
take it according to directions.
1t does not matter whether your
heart is merely weak, or you
have organic trouble, if it does
not benefit you take the empty
bottle to your druggist and get
your money back.

out that railroads are private prop
