Great Revival Held at
Nails CreeK Church
Mr. T. 11. Strange writing from
Nails (’rock to the Commerce
News says :
“A meeting of unusual interest
closed at Nails Creek church in
Banks county a few days ago.
l’he pastor, Rev. J. F. Goode, was
assisted by ilev. Fletcher Parham,
a boy preacher, who was reared
in the Nails ('reck oinnuinity, ami
who is in school at Mercer Univer
sity. Parham is no ordinary boy
and no ordinary preacher. Mr.
Durham assisted pastor l’arham at
Cross lfoads, where they had a
good meeting. As an appreciation
of his service, together with a
desire to aid a worthy young man
.vho is seeking an education, the
members of the church donated
the sum of SBO.OO. The week fol
low ing, he assisted Rev. Goode at
Indian Greek in another good
meeting, xml there.the people gav e
him a purse of 00 and at Nail 8
Creek they gave him in round
numbers, the sum ol SIOO.OO.
This will serve him in a good way,
in {laying his school expenses dur
ing the reminder of his c< liege
course.
We have been quite foitunatc
at our church in our annual re
vival services, and have had each
year, some mighty good preachers
but few if any of the excellent
! preacher we have had, men of ex
peri nee and reputation can beat our
own boy preacher in the pulpit,
when it comes to preaching the
old time religion. This week he is
assisting Rev. < loode at New Beth
el. And it must be remembered
that all of the services held as in
dicated above, were held while the
I state an 1 county political campaign
! w as at high tide.
The meeting at Nails Creek re

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in all
its stanges, and that is Catarrh.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being
; a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall’s
Catarrh Cuie is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the pa

constitutation and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors

STOMACH TROUBLE
FOR FIVE YEARS
Majority of Friend* Thought Mr.
Hughes Would Die, But
One Helped Him to
Recovery.
Pomeroyton, Ky —in interesting ad
vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes
writes as follows: “I was down with
stomach trouble for five (5) years, and
would have sick headache so bad, at
times, that I thought surely 1 would die.
I tried different treatments, but they
did not seem to do me any good.
I got so bad, I could not cat or deep,
and all my friends, except one, thought I
would die. He advised me to try
Thedford’s Black-Draught, and guit
taking other medicines. I decided to
take his advice, although I did not have
any confidence in it.
I have now been taking Black-Draught
for three months, and it has cured me—
haven't had those awful sick headaches
since I began using it.
I am so thankful for what Black-
Draught has done for me.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
found a very valuable medicine for de
rangements of the stomach and liver. It
is composed of pure, vegetable herbs,
contains no dangerous ingredients, and
acts gently, yet surely. It can be freely
used by young and old, and should be
kept in every family chest.
