MISS DADE STEGEMAN, OF CHICAGO.
Miss Dado Stegoman, Superintendent
of the Chicago North Side Woman’s
Club, of Chicago, in a recent letter to Dr.
Hartman, speaks of Pe-ru-na as follows:
“ Pe-ru-na has often been used by the
members of our club in cases of stomach
tronble and general debility—also re
cently in cases of la grippe, and always
with the most beneficial results. I think
a great deal of Pe-m-nar—often recom
mend it to my friends, and am glad to
say all who have tried it speak a good
word for it.”
Mrs. Emily S. Carson, Austerlitz,
Mich., says: *
Dr. S. B. Hartman—Dear Sir: I had
been troubled with dyspepsia and indi
gestion for many years, and was very
much reduced in flesh. I could not eat
anything with
out the greatest
distress after
wards. My food
would come up
and my stom
ach became
very weak from
fasting, as I
preferred to go
without food
rather than suf
fer the coiise-
least distress, sleep well, and, instead
of the living skeleton I was, I am now
a healthy, fleshy woman. This was in
1889, and I have continued well ever
since. I have not been without youi
remedy in the house since my recovery,
I advise all sufferers to do as I did and
be cured.
Mr. John P Schmidt says: u Pe-ru-na
has saved my life. For five years the
best doctors had pronounced me incur-

State of Georgia, County of Polk.
To the Superior Court of said county:
The petition of G. W- Featherstoii, of
said state and county, and C. E. James,
of the stale of Tennessee and county of
Hamilton, respectfully shows:
1st. That they desire, for themselves,
their associates, successors and assigns,
to become incorporated under j.be name
and style of Thk (J. W. Fkatjiekston
Mi vino Com ran v..
2d. The. term for which petitioners
ask to he incorporated is twenty-five
years, with the privilege of renewal at
the end ol that time.
3d. The Capital Stock of the corpora
tion is to be Ten Thousand Dollar*,
divided into shares of One Hundred
Dollars each. Said stock to be paid by
three miles of railroad ready for use,
together"with the commissary and all
machinery, tools, washers, and the en
tire Wray Mining Company plant. Pe
titioners, however, ask the privilege of , .
increasing said Capital Stock, from time Harriet, don t yon know a wo-
to time, not exceeding in the aggregate I man can’t throw straight?' Yon had
ntv-Five Thousand n a. i .i. T
qnences. I could get no rest by day nor
sleep by night. I tried every remedy
advertised for the euro of dyspepsia
without the least benefit. At last I got
liottle of Pe-ru-na. I confess I had no
faith in it, as I had been so often disap
pointed ; but in a day or so I felt much
Improved. Food did not distress me as
before. I continued its use, and, after
using a dozen bottles, I was a well
Woman. I can eat anything without the
tion of diseases—
palpitation of the
heart, nervousness,
weakness and dys-
pepsia. A few
bottles of Pe-ru-na
and Man-a-lin
cured me. Pe-ru-
na cannot be
beaten. I give
your medicine to
my children for the various little ail
ments which annoy little ones, and the
result is that they are never sick, but
always strong and healthy. I have
gained- forty pounds since taking
P» -ru-na.”
So many people have what is called
dyspepsia without haviiig the slightest
suspicion that catarrh of the stomach is
the cause. Such people take pepsin and
a thousand other things, vainly hoping
to get well. But the catarrh remains,
and of course the dyspepsia remains.
Pe-ru-na cures these cases permanently
by removing the cause, which is catarrh.
Pe-ru-na has cured more cases of dys
pepsia than any other remedy in the
world. Address Dr. Hartman, Colum
bus, Ohio, for a free book.

Swamp Fox costs yon nothing if it

cents if it does. “No cure, no pay,” is
our motto. We do not want 5 onr

Swamp Fox not only cures chills and
fever, bnt is a preventive; no one can
contract either while taking this great

perfect health that a bottle of this
remedy will not improve them. It is a
great tonic and should be in every

At the last meeting of the Georgia
State Argicultnral Society, Mr. F.
Merriam, who rnns a hillside farm near
Atlanta, on the Southern Bail way, in
the conrse of an interesting talk made
some eye-opening statements.
In view of the location in Polk county
of cotton factories and the iron develop
j ments—the furnaces and ore washers —
i the time is at hand when track and
! market gardening will he greatly stirra
, luted throughout the eonnty. There is
money in it, - especially in Polk, if the
red old clay banks of Fulton eonnty
can make the following remarkable
showing:—
v “If a man will but studj his ground
he will find it to he fully as entrancing
as study of books. Through marriage
I became connected with a small farm.
With my brother-in-law I broke ground
in 1803 to meet the market demands in
Atlanta. That year I made only §500,
but §115 which I received from 250 hills
of cucumbers convinced me that I was
on the right track. The next year my
sales went np to $1,924 29. I get $500
from one acre which I had planted in
potatoes. The next year, 1895,
marketed $3,329 worth of vegetables.
This year I found lettuce to be the best
si 1< r, getting $791.40 on that article.
It was in 1890, howevei. that I struck
Inck and gained the .final conviction
that there is money in the land when
the farmer studies his surroundings.
In that year ] sold $5,008 worth of
stuff,—$704,GO came from lettnee, $583
from turnip salad and $404 from beets.
I keep books strictly, and find that it
costs me exactly one-third of what I
raise to pay the necessary expenses,
including repairs. In 1897 prices were
low and the more ordinary vetegetables
were in demand, bnt even nnder this
stringency I made $4,738.00. Of thi«,
$529.55 came from three acres planted
in tomatoes, $398.90 from beans and
$329.55 from turnips. 1898 found the
market still depressed, bnt I made that
year $4,794.20, of which $732.00 came
from turnip salad and $501 from col-
lards. This year, notwithstanding the
very bad season we had in the spring
monthp, up to the 1st of August- I have
sold $4,138.55 worth, $600 of which
came from one acre planted in cabbage,
and I intend to pocket a round $10,000
this year out of my little farm.
Georgia soil under a system of deep
plowing and thorough tillage will pro
duce fine crops. Our red clay subsoils
are rich in plant food. The Georgia
‘Cr<p. er’ has been plowing for years
down to what he called “the hard” and
this same hard subsoil has been absorb
ing all these years the plant food from
the thin layers of cultivated ground as it
was packed down by the heavy rains,
until to-duy it is ready by the magic of
modern improved farming to yield np
its riches in crops that will astonish the
civilized world. We have striking
examples of this in the farms scattered
here and there over the State, which
appear like oases in deserts of surround
ing barrenness. Farms where thrift is
the order of the day, and owners look
personally after every detail, are object
lessons of what we may expect when
the community at large becomes better
educated in modern farm methods.
And the fact.that these successful men
ore still progressing, their crops are
growing larger, their land richer and
their net profit at the close of the year
shows a corresponding increase, goes to
prove that no limit can be placed upon
the productiveness of onr soil and the
wealth and prosperity,as an agricultural
community, that we may finally aspire
to.”—Southern Frail.

Tlie East & West. Railroad Receives
New Freight Cars.
There has been a gennine boom on in
the bnsiness of the East & West rail
road. The bnilding of the new cotton
mills at Cedartown and Aragon, the
starting of the furnaces at the former
place, and the starting np of the in
numerable iron mines along the ronte,
are the cause of the boom. On account
of the continued bad weather, however,
ore shipments have fallen off some.
The coking industry is alto addin;
much bnsiness.
There is really a famine of cars on the
road. The n ad has just received thirty
new coal cars and needs a few hundred
more. They cannot be had. Car

The Borne Tribune saj’s Chairman
W. J. Neel, of the Seventh District
Democratic Executive Commjttee, has
announced that lie will not call a meet
ing-of his committee until the State
Executive Committee meets and fixes
the date of the State Convention.
One matter of business which will
come before the committee when it
assembles will be the election of two
delegates from the Seventh district to
attend the National Democratic Con
vention which meets in Kansas City on
July 4th.
Some of the district newspapers
have endorsed Chairman Neel as one
of the delegates. This would be a
wise selection, and the Slate heartily
agrees to the proposition. The other
delegate we think ought to be a Polk
county man; and, therefore, we rise
to nominate Mon. W. C. Bunn.
It is not necessary to enumerate
reasons why Col. Ilunn should go to
the convention as a delegate, as any
body who knows him can think of
hundred without ditliculty.
- Therefore, gentlemen of the com
mittee, give ua Bunn with our Neei.—

In clear, bold type this Scriptural in
junction stands ont conspicuously on a
Bmall piece of gun wadding found on
the floor near the dead body of Miss
Nellie McDowell, the young woman
who was mysteriously assassinated at
her home, ten miles from Dallas in
Panlding eonnty last week.
The fragment is said to be a part of
the small scrap of paper which held in
place in the gun barrel the spoonful of
little death-dealing leaden missies.
On another piece of paper wadding,
printed on similar type, and said to
have been drawn from the undischarged
side of a double-barreled shotgun be
longing to Wylie Jones, a yonng farmer
in the neighborhood of the crime, is
found this Biblical truth: “It is ap
pointed unto all men once to die and
after that the judgment."
The murdered woman was the para
mour of Son Jones, a noted character
in Paulding, she having usurped
the place as wife and mother in his
household, Mrs. Jones having left in
disgust.
The fatal shot was fired through a
window as Miss McDowell was sitting
in the evening at Jones’ fireside. Wy
lie Jones, who has sympathized with
his mother in the treatment she has re
ceived from his father, is suspected of
the crime.

Flays President McKinley
Change.
Indianapolis. Ind., March 8.—Gen
eral Lew Wallace, anthor of Ben-Hnr,
gave the following interview today at his
home at Crawfordville, Ind.:
“When the President recommended
free trade with Porto Bico, that was
William McKinley speaking from his
heart; when he urged Congressmen to
eat their utterances and vote for a dnty
on the industries of the island, going
and coming, that was Mark Hanna, the
great Ohio suspect.
“Either the Porto Bieans are fellow-
conntrymen, or people in'relation to us
not yet defined. If fellow countrymen,
free trade should govern in all our deal
ings with them, and their institutions
should have been Amercanized, some
thing impossible while nnder military
control.If they are in relations unknown
and undefined, and poor and helpless,
then charity, the essence of Christian
ity, shonld have had the molding of
our policies.
“It is idle talking about the
island being outside the constitution.
Is Congress the creature of the consti
tution, or the constitution a device of
Congress? It is unfortunate that none
of the men who were invited to see the
President and came away converted
has told us of a word dropped by the
President in explanation of his own
conversion,
“It is not pleasant to think of the
President exerting himself to control
the action of an independent branch
of the government. What shall stop
him next from an interference with the
Judges of the Snpreme Court?
■“It is yet more pleasant to learn from
their admission that a request from the
President should be accepted by Con
gressmen as an imperial order, before
which objections founded in conscience
are blown away like smoke from a gun.”
A. B. De Fluent, editor of tlm Jonr-
nal, Doylestown, Ohio, suffered fora
number of years from rhenmatism in

My right arm at times was entirely

lief almost immediately. The Paiu
Balm has been a constant companion of

A yonng and newly married' couple
were entertaining their friend?, and
among the guests was one whose con
tinued rudeness made him extremely
objectionable to the rest of the com
pany. His conduct although most un
bearable, was put up with for some
time, until at supper he held up on his
fork a piece of meat whieli had been
served to him, and in a vein of Intend
ed humor he looked round and re
marked:
“Is this pig?”
This immediately drew forth the re
mark from a quiet looking individual
sitting at the other end of the table:
“Which end of the fork do you refer
to?”—Spare Moments.

Boils
and Pimples
Give Warning.
AD UNFAILING SIGN THAT
NATURE IS APPEALING
When Nature is overtaxed, she haa
her own way of giving notice that assist
ance is needed. She does not ask for
help until it is impossible to get along without
it. Boils and pimples are an indication that
the system is accumulating impurities which
COD UCI D must be gotten rid of; they are an urgent appeal for assistance
rlln IilLii —a warning that can not safely be ignored.
To neglect to purify the blood at this
time means more than the annoyance of painful boils and
unsightly pimples. If these impurities ar ® n allowed^ to
remain, the system succumbs to any ordinary illness, and is
unable to witlistand the many ailments which are so
prevalent during spring and summer.
Mrs. L. Gentile, 2001 Second Avenue, Seattle, Wash ,
says: “ 1 was afflicted for a long time with pimples, which
were very annoying, as they disfigured my face fearfully.
After using many other remedies in vain. S S. S. promptly
and thoroughly cleansed my blood, and now I rejoice in
a good complexion, which I never had before. ’
Capt. W. H. Dunlap, of the A. G. S.
R. R., Chattanooga. Tenn., writes:
* Several boils ana carbuncles broke out upon me, causing
great pain and annoyance. My blood seemed to be in
a riotous condition, and nothing I took seemed to do
any good. Six bottles of S. S. S. cured me completely
and my blood has been perfectly pure ever since.”
8. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD
_ is the best blood remedy, because it is purely vegetable
and is the only one that is absolutely free from potash and mercury. It
promptly purifies the blood and thoroughly cleanses the system, builds up
the general health and strength. It cures Scrofula, Eczema, Canoer, Rheuma-
tiam. Tetter. Boils, 8ores, etc., by going direct to the cause of the trouble
forcing out all impure blood. _
