BARBARA MCDONALD, Presi dent of the St. Louis Blue Ribbon Club, writes the following letter ioncerning Peruna from 2947 Dayton itreet, St. Louis, Mo.: “It is with feelings of gratitude for uefits derived from the use of Peruna hat I desire to proclaim to human-kind v experience, hoping that it will bene- t some unfortunate sufferer like myself. “Suffering for years with what ap- eared to be an incurable malady, and ter a great expense incurred coneult- g physicians without any benefit, I as recommended to try Peruna. As a ast expedient 1 purchased a bottle, and before one-half of the contents were used felt the beneficial results. I am cont inuing to use same, and might say X entirely well. My disease seemed to catarrh of the stomach, and the lauseating sensation, and the heavy, anguid, tired-out feelings with which I suffered, especially after eating, have entirely left me, and my digestive or gans are in splendid condition, all of rhieh I owe to the use of Peruna.”— MRS. BARBARA McDONALD. Miss Julia V, Teller, of 2518 Prairie street, Milwaukee, Wist, is President of the German Young Woman’s Union. [Her opinion of Peruna is given in the [following words: “ Our German Young Woman’s Union [has nothing but praise for Peruna. [Three of our members have been most Wonderfully helped. One of them had almost constant backache for the last year. The other two suffered from ca tarrh of the head and throat. “ I have used it after a most unpleasant experience with an attack of la grippe, and found that three bottles completely restorod me to health.”—Julia V. Teller. Mrsu Mary Hardy, of 568 W. Polk street, Chicago, ID., writes: “/ find it necessary each spring to take some kind of a tonic and jhave tried a great many but have found none of such value as Peruna. **After taking a few doses I feel the good effeets and seldom need to take more than one bottle as a spring medi cine.”-—Mrs. Mary Hardy. Mrs. Catherine R. Bertos, 803 N. Elm street, Centralia, Ill., writes: “ I have found Peruna tne most satis fying medicine I ever tried in my life. I suffered for years with catarrh of the stomach, which became aggravated every time I caught a slight cold. My food did not digest properly, and life lost its best charm until I tried Peruna. It made a new wom an of me. It took eight bottles to effect a complete cure, but I would not be back in the former condi tion for a thousand dollars. I am most grateful for being cured completely and feel better than I have done for years.”— Catherine R. Bertos. The lassitude incident to spring weather is especially trying to women. Ailments peculiar to the sex [of many varieties are especially prone to aggravation. All this class of affections are fitly described by the term “pelvic catarrh Any woman wishing to be placed on the list of Dr. Hartman's patients for free home treatment and \advice should immediately send name and symptoms, duration of disease and treatment already tried.

Every gardener in Gainesville and Hall county knows what it is to be troubled with potato bugs, and the person who discovers a successful remedy for extermina ting them will be hailed as a pub lic benefactor. A North Carolina paper, the Gastonia Gazette, says that cot ton seed meal is an effective rem edy for potato bugs. The Gazette tells of a farmer who put some Baeal on his vines and in two iours the bugs had disappeared— e y did not die, but left the vines. This farmer, says the Ga zette, is firmly convinced of the virtues of meal as an anti-potato k°g powder, which is much cheap- er and safer than Paris green. It 18 a remedy that is easily tried. PREACHES AT HOSCHTON. j Er. W. F. Quillian of Gaines- Vl He, will preach the commence ment sermon for Hoschton High -chool Sunday, May 25. A large 'i’owd is expected, and they will 36 much edified.

Quite a swell dance will be giv en at the Horse Guards’ armory on the evening of the 29th, instant. Wurm’s orchestra has been en gaged for the occasion and ar rangements are being made for a swell affair. A large number of invitations will be issued and sev eral visitors will be present from neighboring cities, Uniform Text Books. The Cuthbert Leader, one of the best weekly papers in the state, has this to say on a subject of in creasing interest throughout Georgia: It begins to look as though the sentiment in favor of uniform text books for Georgia is growing, and the Leader would not be sur prised if a bill requiring all the counties in the state to use school books of a uniform character should pass the next legislature. At least two out of the four can didates for state school commis sioner are in favor of this plan. The best educational results may t be attained by the use of uniform school books, but the system is in keeping with our public school system, which lacks a good deal of being ideal.

Evans of Gainesville, was among the number in Atlan ta last Saturday who visited the scene of the fearful riot at “Pitts burg,” an Atlanta suburb, in which four policemen and three negroes were killed. He says ho never saw any excitement equal to it as there were thousands upon the scene and guns, pistols, rifles, and even a gat ling gun, were in evi dence everywhere. He saw the charred remains of the negro des perado, Will Richardson, and the dead bodies of the policemen and the negroes who were killed. The not was caused by a brutal at tack upon an ex-policeman named Kerim, who wa§ badly beaten up, and when an attempt was made to arrest his negro assailants they barricaded themselves in a house and picked off police officers with unerring aim with winchester ri fles. ..
