And, as a president’s power of will Sometimes depends on a liver-pill. Sir. Polk took Ayer’s Pills I trow For his liver, SO years ago.

At this time of the year a cold is very easily contracted, and if left to run its course without the aid of some reliable cough medi¬ cine is liable to result in that dread disease, pneumonia. We know of no better remedy to cure a cough or cold than Chamber¬ lain’s Cough Remedy. We have used it quite extensively and it has always given entire satisfac¬ tion.—Olagah, Ind. Ter. Chief. This is the only remedy that is known to be a certain preven¬ tative of pneumonia. Among the many thousands who have used it for colds and la grippe, we have never yet learned of a single case having resulted in pneumonia. Persons who have w T e ak lu ngs or have reason to fear an attack of pneumonia, hand. should keep the remedy at sale The 25 and 50 cent sizes for by Dr. R. J- Reid.

The improvement along 1 that section is great and wo are j proud to see the good work go-1 in - on. A Christmas Tree Wanted. We have not heard of anything being prepared for the children's entertainment Christmas. There should be a Christmas tree ar¬ ranged. It is old time fun for tiro little ones (and some big ones, as to that matter) and such en¬ joyment should not be denied them. Who will move in this matter? Should del it Up. Some of our young people are desirous of organizing a literary and social club. It is a good idea and everybody should give such organizations their hearty approval. It has been some months since anything of the kind was had in Crawfordt ille. Such meetings would be quite entertaining these winter nights. The doctor may be a good old man, but even so, medical ex¬ aminations and the “local-ap¬ plication” treatment are abhor¬ rent to every modest woman. They are embai rasing—often useless. They should not be submitted to until everything else has been tried. In nine cases out of ten, there is no rea¬ son for them. In nine cases out ten, the doctor in general practice isn’t competent to treat female diseases. They make a branch of medicine by them¬ selves. They are distinct from other ailments. They can be properly understood and treated only by one who has had years of actual practice and experience in this particular line. This is true of Dr. R. V, Pierce, chief consulting physician of the In¬ valids’ Hotel and Surgical Insti¬ tute, at Buffalo, N. Y. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite fori Prescription, it remedy reprotj all derangements of of the ictive organs women, has 2n in actual use for more than), thirty years. It cures every form. of “female weakness. ' * (jot His Horse. Adam Pierson, colored, who had his horse stolen from the rack here Saturday nigh*' week has found the animal, It was taken up in Greene county by Carter Robinson and turned over to Ordinary McWhorter and through a notice in the papers, Adam was notified. He went up to Greenesboro for the horse and on his way home a negro ran into his buggy and broke one of the wheels down. He Wets in hard luck. Some one took the horse and rode it off from here on the night it was missing and turned it loose up in Greene county. To My Friends and Patrons.
