and have found it to be a most excellent
family remedy. For colds, catarrh
and similar ills, it is unsurpassed.”—

John L. Burnett, Member of Congress,
Seventh Alabama District, writes:
“1 take pleasure in testifying to the
merits of your Peruna. At the solicita*
tion of a friend my wife used it, and it
improved her condition generally. It ii
a remarkable remedy. I can cheerfully
recommend Peruna as a good, substan
tial tonic, and a very good catarrh rem
edy.”
Peruna cures catarrh wherever lo
cated. Peruna is not a guess nor an
experiment—it is an absolute scientific
certainty. Peruna has no substitutes—
no rivals. Insist upon having Peruna.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice free.

AN EXPLANATION.
In justico to myself and friends,
Mr. Editor, I desire the publica
tion of this article, and as the
election is over and gone I only
want to correct some falsehoods
that have been and are now being
circulated about me. First, I wish
to correct some campaign lies—
for instance, it has been told on me
that I was drunk all the last.terms
of the Georgia Legislature, 1900
and 1901, which is an absolute lie,
as my friends know and I can
prove. It has also been circulated
that myself and A. J. Mandy went
to Atlanta and made arrangements
for liquor for the campaign, and
that we intended to try to pass a
bill to get a dispensary in Gaines
ville, which is a/lie. It has also
been circulated on me that I at
tempted to pass a bill in the
House to prohibit all old soldiers
who are worth over $200, from
drawing a pension, which is also
a falsehood. And in regard to the
public school fund, it has been
told that I opposed it, and there
was no such bill before the legis
lature. _
Also there was a great fight
made against me on the depot bill.
Well, in regard to that, I will say
that I took an oath to to do my
duty as I saw it, and thought then,
and still think that the depot bill,
should it have been carried out. as
I thought it ought, would have
been a good thing for the state.
Now, m conclusion, I want to
say that I never drank anything
nor visited a lewd house while in
legislature, and never missed but
one roll call, and I can refer any
body to such men as A.D. Gandler,
Howard Thompson, Thomas M.
Bell, A. S. Hardy, T. H. Robert-
Bon, G. H. Prior, M. O. Gilmer.
F. M. Johnson, Sam Dunlap a Ad
several others as to my behavior
and to the record that I made,
and only wish to say that nothing
but lies defeated me and there |i,re
many mor8 that I could mention,
but time and space forbid. And
I ask your candid judgment if the
above are not enough within them-
aelves to defeat any man without
any more, I only publish this
that my friends and all truthful
people may know the cause'of my
defeat. All the above falsehoods
can be proven as such.
Respectfully,
John H. Pierce.
