GETTING READY
FOR THE WORK
According to present plans the
work on the Allen Memorial
church in Oxford will commence
next month.
This hansome edifice will cost
when completed $30,000 and prac.
tically the entire amount has now
been raised.
It will be a most beautiful and
imposing building, a fit memorial
to the great Young J. Allen and
companion to the handsome build¬
ings of classic Emory.
Dr. Dickey, president of Emory
has been a leading spirit in plan¬
ning this memorial and raising the
necessary money to make it a real
tty. With the continued growth
of Emory aud its permanency as¬
sured by its long years of success
this handsome church is a great
necessity.
Emory’s future is brighter to¬
day than it has ever been in its
long and successful career.

FOUR CIRCLES OF LADIES
TO PUSH LIBRARY BUILDING
The Woman’s Club has been di
vided into four circles for the pur¬
pose of devising plans to further
the Library building project.
The names of those comprising
the different circles are given for
the benefit of those interested and
are as follows:
First Circle—Mesdames Ander
son, Adair, Cooper, J. B. Davis,
R B. Davis, W. C. Clarke, J. J.
Corley, A. H. Foster, Clifton Lee,
Miss Brownie Anderson.
Second Circle—Mesdames P. W.
Woman’s Club Meeting.
Most important was the meeting
of the Woman’s Clnb Tuesday af¬
ternoon. It was the occasion of
the regular semi-monthly meeting
and convened in the library with
the president, Mrs. C. A. Sock¬
well, and the secretary, Mrs. J. E.
Phillips, serving in their respective
positions.
The business session proved one
of the most important in the club's
history. Measures were consider¬
ed lookiug to securing a suitable
site for tbe library building which
the club proposes to erect at an
early date. A committee appoint¬
ed by the president consisting of
ffght ladies has in hand the selec¬
tion of the site and it is certain
hat this committee which includes
Mesdames C. A. Sockwell, James
F. Rogers, W. C. Clark, J. E.
Phillips, E. O. Lee, A. II. Foster,
lharlie White and H. D. Terrell
will make a most pleasing and
satisfactory choice.
To foster and further the work
of building a library is a task
which the Woman’s Club has set
itself, and to support and further
this projected work the circles
which were appointed at the last
neeting of the club are rapidly
mobilizing for effective work dur¬
ing th« summer months, and that
Covington is soon to have a library
building is an absolute certainity.
The Woman’s Club is entitled
o the cordial support of each and
every citizen of Covington in this
noble work of erecting a library
and the monuement being already
so enthusiastically launched will
be pushed to a successful conclu¬
sion.
At the close of the business ses
sion the study hour was made par
ticularlv attractive and instructive
under the capable leadership of
Mrs. Dean Towers and Mrs. t.
D. Terrell. The beautiful histor
, ical-lore of Spain was unfolded
most entertainingly and the lesson
hour made in every way worth
while.

ALL FOOL’S DAY.
Newborn High School Echo.
It has been the custom for a
long, long time to play pranks oi
the unsuspecting on the fi-st day
of April. The custom is knowi
in European countries as well at
in America. It has been thp
custom for many years to send per
sons on fruitless errands for the
sake of a good laugh. No origin
of the custom has been gmn bat
we suppose it was eet apart by the
fools.
On the first day of April you
had betier let the free sugar and
candy alone, for salt and soap—
Ibe fool’s favorite flavors—are al¬
ways a specialty on that day.
And if you have to walk a mile or
two hunting ‘‘needle molds’’or
l < lizzard scratchers” for sonn
fool, all you can do is help him
1&u ^ h off thw i oke ’ un!ess vln '
-
should succeed in finding these ar
tides, then the joke would be
turned on the other fool.
All the fools should be verj
1 careful on that day while eating
for tear they eat a dishrag or an
old bonnet or some oth«r artici
in a buscuit. We have no righi
to get mad at these pranks on tht
fools day for it is understood that
no harm is meant on All Fool’s
Day. We say All Fool’s Day be
cause nearly everybody is a fool
on that day. If they get mad
they are a fool, and if they don’i
get mad they are helping to obr
serve the da}'. So we find it very
difficult to ehun the fools list on
the first day of April. Now don’i
get mad at this for your day has
passed.

Catarrh of the Stomach
a Prevalent Disease
Difficult to Relieve.
A PROMPT AND
Mr. S. W. Jafekson, 315 Weaver Block,
Greenville, Ohio, says: “While I was
superintendent of construction of J. F.
Bender and Bros.’ Co., of Hamilton,
}hio, I became entirely unfit for busi
aess with catarrh of the stomach.
“A friend called my attention to a
remedy for this condition. I began to
mprove at once. I was soon able to re¬
turn to my former profession.
“It would require many pages to de¬
scribe the condition I was in and the re¬
lief I have obtained.”
Here is another case. Officer George
Y. Stout, 724 North Broadway, Balti¬
more, Md., says: “I suffered very much
with catarrh of the stomach and ner¬
vous indigestion. I lost fifty pounds in
four months.
“A friend called my attention to a
remedy, which I used, and gradually
got well. I have gained half my lost
weight hack again.”
Chronic Stomach Trouble.
Mr. Robert J. Gillespie, 638 Sonth
Main St., Los Angeles, Cal., secretary
of Lather's International Union, was
also suffering from catarrh of the stom¬
ach a long time. He grew thinner and
paler, lost all ambition and appetite.
Sick at the stomach, indigestion con¬
tinually.
A friend also called his attention to
a remedy, which brought about a de¬
cided improvement. After continuing
the use of the remedy for a month, he
considers himself permanently relieved.
Now, once more. Mr. Christian Hof
man, Slatington, Pa., says he suffered
for many years with catarrh of the
stomach. It produced a miserable
cough, day and night. He tried doctors
and many remedies. At last his atten¬
tion was called to a remedy, the same
remedy that relieved the others which
have been referred to above. He claims
that he was entirely rid of his stomach
difficulty.
?e-ru-na Brought Back Health.
What was the remedy that has
wrought this remarkable relief? So far,
the remedy has not been mentioned.
If any one doubts the correctness of
these statements it is very easy to ver¬
ify them by writing to the people whose
names have been given, enclosing a
stamp for reply.
The remedy is within the reach of
every one. It is simply the good, old
standard reliable remedy known as
Peruna.

COVINGTON, GEORGIA
Mr. J. A. Cowan’s barn, neat
Salem, was struck by lightning
and destroyed by fire Thursday
night.
The fire caused a complete lost
of all Mr. Cowau’s horses and
mules and feed stuff and the loss is
considerable.
It occurred early in the evening
during the electrical storm which
was so noticeable through thi*
section.

REMEDY.
If the truth were known, the proba¬
bilities are that Peruna has relieved
as many cases of catarrh of the stomach
as any other popular remedy in exis¬
tence. We have a great many unsolic¬
ited testimonials from all parts of th#
United States, declaring in strong and
enthusiastic terms that Peruna has en¬
tirely relieved them of catarrh of the
stomach, that they were wretched and
miserable beyond words, but Peruna
has restored them to health, vigor and
happiness.
These are the facts. Now, if you have
stomach difficulty, it is up to you to act
upon them or ignore them, as yon
please. •
Symptoms of Stomach Catarrh.
“The affection may result from error*
in diet, or the use of alcohol. The ex¬
cessive use of tobacco, especially when
the juice or the leaves are swallowed,
is likely to cause it.
“Highly seasoned or coarse, irritating
foods, sometimes induce the disease.
“As chronic gastritis (catarrh of the
stomach) i3 essentially a secondary
affection, one of the primary causes is
an unhealthy state of the mouth, nose
or throat, such as bad teeth or catarrh,
of the nose (ozena)
“The patients are usually poorly
nourished, pale, sallow, thin, fatigue
easily induced, muscles flabby. Loss
of appetite or capricious appetite.
“The tongue is usually coated brown¬
ish gray. Cankered mouth is a com¬
mon occurrence.
“Pain is not common. When present
it is usually dull, and is aggravated by
food, especially when this is of an irri¬
tating character.
“Vomiting may occur in the morning.
Also after meals. Sickness to the stom¬
ach frequent and persistent.
“Food produces dull headache, and a
feeling of general nervous distress.
Constipation usually quite marked.”
These symptoms, given by Gould and.
Pyle, coincide exactly with the frequent
descriptions Dr. Hartman is receiving
from patients all over the United States.
If yon have any of these symptom's
get a bottle of Peruna. Take a dose be¬
fore each meal. See if your stomach
does not immediately feel better, your
appetite improve, your digestion at
once resume business.
People who object to liquid medicine#
caa now secure Peruna tablets.
