THE CEDARTOWN STANDARD CEDARTOWN, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 3, 1900 WATSON WILL NOT ACCEPT. PETTINGILL’S AXIOMS. GOVERNOR M’CORD NEW Under no Circumstances Will He Stand l'or Office. Atlanta, April 27.—The action of populist conventions in several Xorth- | ern states in endorsing Hon. Thomas Bnsiness Truths Proved True by a Well Known Advertising Authority. (From the Boston Herald ) Do, you want to feel the pnlse of the buying world? Advertise. The old Cobweb and Spider style of obtaining business is a thing of the past—now you must get customers by judicious advertising. The public is just as anxious to buy your goods as yon are to sell—if the mentis there. In almost every bnsiness there is one leader —where is your place in line? Procrastination of advertising plans may be the thief of prosperity. The proper time to prepare an ad vertising campaign is now—be ready. Recommends Pe-ru-na For Catarrh, i E. Watson of Georgia, and naming him for first place on the ticket, has caused something of a stir in political circles all over the South. The asso ciation of Mr. Watson’s name with Ins rumored re-entry into politics took the form in one instance of a re- port that he had decided to accept the nomination and that he was consider ing who should present his name. Mr. Watson has stated several times, tersely and emphatically, that he was out of politics, but in view of recent rumors connecting him prominently with the populist convention, the distinguished Georgian was asked for a final declaration, to which he has replied as follows: “Under no circumstances would I accept any nomination or any office. Please number me among the politi cally dead, and let me henceforth rest in peace.” . LAKE CREEK LEKJER. Hon. M. H. McCord. Hon. Myron H. McCord, Ex-Governor of New Mexico, in a letter to Dr. Hart man, from Washington, D. C., says: Dear Sir—At the suggestion of afriend I was advised to use Pe-ru-na for catarrh, and after using one bottle I began to feel better in every way. It helped mo in many respects. I was troubled with colds, coughs, sore throat, etc., but as soon as I had taken your medicine I began to improve and soon got well. I take pleasure in recommending your great remedy to all who are afflicted with catarrh.—M. H. McCord. The spring presents a much more favorable opportunity, for the perma nent cure of chronic catarrh, especially old, stubborn cases. Now is the time to begin treatment. Insist upon having Pe-ru-na.
