rheumatism depends and cures the
disease?
This medicine has done more for the
rheumatic than any other medicine in
the world.--Ady.

Broad street in Augusta. and so far
as l know there has been no inten-

The Augusta people wanted the
home offices of the company enough
to subscribe 100000 worth of stock,
which enables US to put up the kind
of a structure that Augusta wants.
1t is probable however, that eX-
tensive offices will be maintained in
Atlanta and that the Empire Life
Building will not be sold. There
have been no definite steps taken to-
ward selling our local property
The Empire Life Building was
bought several years ago by the pres
