A Proposed New Railroad.
For some timo past thero havo boon
gorsistent rumors to tho effect that tho
outhorn Railway intends to build a now
lino over tho Blue Ridge mountains from
Knoxville, using tho survey of tho old
Bluo Ridgo roan. Tho railroad officials
havo never yet declared their intentions,
but tho persistency with which tho
rumor is circulated has given credibility
to it.
Tho Manufacturer's Record of Sep
tombor 4th, contains tho following:
"Application has boon mado for a
charter for tho Tennessee, (ieorgia A
South Carolina Railroad Company to
build a lino from Walhalla, S. C.
through Georgia to Charleston, Tonn.

of Minorai Bluff, Ga., and J. A. Butt, of
Blainosvillo, Ga.
Messrs. Frink, Skinner and Baugh
havo published in a local paper notice of |
their intention to apply to tho Secretary
of State for a charter to build a railroad
from tho city of Anderson to tho Goorgir
line, going in tho direction of Rabun
Gan, and passing through Contcrvillo
and Fork townships in this county.
Absolutely nothing is known in Andor
son of tho parties or their intention .,
and it is understood that tho not iee was
Heni to tho paper through tho mails.
Hut it costs several hundred dollars to
secure a charter for a railroad in this
State, and it duos not seem probablo that
anybody would bo willing to put up the
money for securing a railroad charter I
unless there was some likelihood that
tho road would bo built.-Andorson Mail.

Brain Food Nonsense.
Another ridiculous food fad has boon

that ono kind of food is needod for brain,
another for muscles and still another for
bones. A correct diet will not only nour
ish a particular part of tho body, but it
will sustain every other part. Yet, how
ever good your food may be, its nutri
ment is destroyed by indigestion or dys
pepsia. You must prepare for their ap
pearance or prevont their coming by
taking regular doses of Groon's August
Flower, tho favorite medicine of tho
healthy millions. A fow doses aids diges

action, purifies tho blood and makes you
