SUNDAY, AUGUST 30
FOR HAY FEVER.
Pt-ru-na is Sometimes Used With Ex
cellent Results.
A CASE IN POINT.
MISS MA Y V
MISS MAYME E. SMITH, 444 East
Mound St., Columbus, Ohio, writes:
“Have used Peruna for catarrh and
hay fever. The results being remark
able, I can highly recommend it to all
who are suffering with the above dis
eases. I am happy to be able to say it
has helped me wonderfully.”
What is known as hay fever is in
reality endemic catarrh, a catarrhal
condition of the nose, throat, some
times the bronchial tubes, induced by
some local irritant.
The irritation is generally due to vege
tal emanations of some sort. Hay has
been suspected as being the cause of
this malady, hence its name, hay fever.
It has been attributed to rag weed and
other vegetation also. It is a very
capricious disease, coming and going.
A medicine that will help one case may
not help another. Such treatment has
always been very uncertain and unsat
isfactory.
Peruna helps some cases withont a
doubt, although it is not claimed to be
an infallible remedy for such cases.

Brazil aiul Argentine Re
public About to go to war
WASHINGTON, D. C.—An early
war between Brazil nnd Argentine
Republic is on the carpet, according
to advices received almost daily by
the slate department.
Spencer Eddy, the American minis
ter to Argentine has cabled that the
Argentine chamber of deputies have
voted a credit of $55,000,000 for
armaments. Argentina is in the
markets to buy warships and any
country having such for sale can find
a cash purchaser. Plans for build
ing warships are to be rushed by
(Argentina and both the naval and
army force is to be strengthened at
once.
Argentina officials say that the
building by Brasil of three powerful
warships of the Dreadnought type in
England is a preparatory step to the
coming conflict The new ships are
part of the armmament desired by
Brazil wheji she makes war on Argen
tina, officials of the latter country
openly asserts. The protests of the
Brazilian authorities that the ships
were for Brazil and no other country
are probably correct. Much excite
ment was created here by the report
tha f the ships were being built by
Brazil for the Japanese navy. Naval
authorities here have been watching
Brazil with much interest. They were
at a loss to understand what Brazil
could want with powerful navy. Ar
gentina's warlike talk and move of
fers an explanation.

Social (gossip
Once again Augusta has risen like a web-footed Phoenix, from a watery
grave, and although the water in tne city is not yet dry, the merchants tic
all putting on a brave face and have their various wares displayed in 'ln
most attractive way. While tills seems a trivial matter it carries with it a
strong lesson of how one may suffer and still be strong. How one may over
come obstacles that seem almost insurmountable, and out of a watery grave
rise superior to conditions and snow the real stuff that is n a man.
Swift footed Charity is already at work and hundreds have been relieved
of the most strenuous situation that nas ever confronted them.
With such a disastrous loss of life and property all else seems most tri-'ial
but the lesson taught by the little flowers in the gardens that were sub
merged. was one of the strongest. The verbenas, and the humble llatte
flowers that grow nearest to the ground were the first to succumb. They
ltowevy. raised their bright Uttle heads bravely till the last and neld their
sunny faces too, smiling still bowed -o the inevitable.
Tile Augustans who have been enjoy oying sojourns among the mountains
and at the seaside are returning in great numbers are already the return
of the summer swallows argues mat the good days of the glad summehtiine
are already regulated to the things of the past. Mountain and seaside, that
have literally teemed with Augustans, are now quickly scattering the groups
and with the exception of a i**w who are getting ready to put their homes
in order for the coming winter season.
Mr, J. L. Donnelly to Wed
Miss Annie M. Che'bal
Among the interesting events of |
the coming week will be the quiet j
marriage of Miss Annie Marie Che
val and Mr. James I.agulnne Donnel
ly, which will take place at the par
sonage of the St. Patrick church on
Tuesday afternoon. No cards of invi
tation will be issued and the occasion
will be most quiet.
AN AUGUSTA BELLE
AT SEVENTY.
If there is on e thing that Augustans
can boast of it is being appreciated.
Not only at home, but abroad as well
their merit is quickly recognized and
given its full worth. The following
is an excerpt from the Los Angeles
Herald of recent date. The dramatis
persons are easily recognized as Mrs.
Charles Jones, Miss Laura King and
Mrs. Roswell King:
few friends had been asked to
meet a Lion from the east.
“It was an informal evening affair,
given at the pleasant home of the
sister and brother-in-law, with whom
the young hostess and her mother re
sides. There are few women more
attractive than this same sister, a
dark-haired matron in chic attire,
whose manner bespoke cordial hos
pitality, while th e young hostess was
wholly charming in her fluffy-ruffles
gown, with soft dark eyes from which
peeped by turns a mischievous sprite i
a dreamer of dreams and a cloistered
nun.
Among the guests was a woman,
whose nam e is synonymous with the
highest culture of the day and whose
personality draws friends and admir
ers as a magnet does a needle. In
the company was a sweet-voiced
singer of Spanish songs; a dramatis
teacher and writer of plays, a cul
tured Smith college graduate, a shy
young woman, but the most eagerly
sought, the one whos e repartee was
keenest and swiftest, whose laughter
was merriest and who was th» un
crowned queen of the evening, was
the mother on whose head rests the i
snows of nearly seventy winters, |
whose brown eyes are still undimmed
and in whose heart dwells eternal j
youth. |
Hers was a social triumph, small
to be sure, but one duplicated where
ever she appears. To her men of the
twentieth century bow with the sajne
deference today as did young gallants
of an earlier generation when she
claimed their homage by the right
devine of winsome youth, and today
she wins a loving allegiance that
many a Titian-haired young beauty
might well envy.
The Misses Bennett returned

ROBINSON, 111.—A serious race
war. having for its purpose the ex
termination of a working camp of
negroes, it threatened here today.
Following a resort to dynamite,
made last night to frighten the ne
groes away, both the authorities and
the blacks themselves are preparing
lor serious trouble.
Feeling against the negroes has
been engendered because they were
employed on street paving work,
when the town is full of unemployed
white men. Two sticks of dynamite
was discharged near the negroes
camp during the night, but no one
was hurt

spicious success of this store has been attained by the confidence inspired in the mind of the public.
This is due not only to the high character of our merchandise, but also by the sound principals under
which our goods are sold. Our platform from the beginning has been equal treatment to all.
There are no concessions obtainable by one purchaser that, are not open to all.
