t A BETTER WAT TO BUT SEEB We 1 Hive a seed proposition of such unusual merit and so different from what other dealers offer that it it were possible to bring it to the thoughtful attention of every man in the county and to make them fully understand its advan tages and convince them of the truth of our claims, we would have more seed business than we could possibly handle with our present equip ment. Yet our plan is exceedingly simple and every claim made concerning it is the plain, un varnished truth. What we claim to do, that we do : and we ask that you accept our statements as truth, for such they are. Fresh Seed All our seeds are absolutely fresh, now crop seed and have never been offered for sale before. Every package is plainly stamped with the year put up. Wo never sell left over seed for fresh, or mix such seed with the new. We prefer the loss of a little seed to the injury of a good reputation. More Seed All of our 5-cent papers contain more seed than is usually sold for this price. We have examined and compared several others with ours, and the re sult shows our papers to contain from a third more to double the quantity. This is made possible by buying in bulk and doing the work of packaging in our own store. Best Seed The seeds we sell are the choicest strains of the best varieties. Most of them have been repeatedly tried in this county and found good. We guaran tee all seeds true to name and to be fresh. We want you to test the truth of these state ments in your garden this year, and promise that vou will have no cause for regret if you do so. Let us have your order; in person, by mail, or by telephone. HOLT & CATES, Newnan, Georgia. | Local News of Newnan j Dr. Anderson, Building.

Cured by Pe-ru-na. The Grip is Properly Termed Epidemic Catarrh. As Pe-ru-na Cures Every Form of Catarrh, It Has Relieved More Cases of Grip Than All Other Remedies Combined. The Fear of Grip Hakes People Nervous. There Ih no remedy in Die world that meets (lie condition!* produced by the (trip better Until Porunn. Peruna strengthens ns It renovates, soothes while It stimulates, heals as it expurgates. Pcruna Is not a purgative, or cathartic or sedative, or stimulant, nor a vege table or mineral poison. It reaches the source of all diseases of tlio mucous membranes by Its action on the vase-motor system of nerves. After-Effects of the Grip. Kvcry person who has hud la grippe during the last year should take a course of Peruna. No one need expect perfect recovery unless they do so, Thu grip has produced catarrhal In flammation of tho whole mucous mem brane, and good health Is Impossible until these are restored to a normal con dition. This Peruna will do, A great many remedies havo been suggested for tliiscondltion from time to time, but Peruna Is tho only remedy thill lias any substantia! value ill these cases. It has never failed to give satisfaction W. If. Parsons is Kx-Stuto Senator and Kx-Mpeolal .Indue of tho Supreme Court of Texas, and was also brigadier-) icucrul In Confederate Army.

I feel a decided change fur the better after using It only one week. •It Is especially good In toning up the stomach and has had a decided effect upon my appetite. I therefore feel much encouraged that I am on the road to complete restoration. "My numerous friends In Texas, where I have had the honor to command a brigade of her Veteran Cavalry In a four years’war, may accept bits vol untary testimonial to tho merits of Peruna as a sense of obligation ou my part for its wonderful efficacy.”—W. H. Parsons. during forty years’ experience and still occupies the unl(|iio position of being the leading (If not the only) specific remedy for the after-effects of la grippe. No Time Like the Present. If you are suffering from the after effects of la grippe—If you have be come discouraged in your utlnmpts to euro yourself with oilier treatments, take a bottle of Peruna now. A hot lie of Peruna taken during the beginning of the disease Is worth more than a dor.eii hollies after the trouble lias become deep-seated. Miss Eugenio biifortuno of 110 bcrrlu street, Montreal, Can., writes: "Peruna cured me of a sevoro ease of la grippe when nothing else bad any effect on me, PI vo bottles did the work and they were worth hundreds of dol lars for llieeoiuforl uud health restored lo me, I therefore fool that the least I can do is to gratefully acknowledge Its merits.”—Kugonle I,u for tune.
