1353 Osgood St., Chicago, Ill.
The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, O.
Gentlemen—**I can safely rec
ommend Peruna as a remedy that
ill cure all catarrhal troubles.
It was of great benefit to me as
t cured me of catarrh of the throat
nd lungs permanently and in a
ery short time. I am glad to
dd my endorsement to that of
itkers.”—JOHN J. FURLONG.
Cures Made by Peruna are Permanent
Cures.
A patient cured by Peruna is no more
liable to catarrh than if he had never
tad it.
Cured of Catarrh of the Entire System.
Mr. William Flood, care Fifth Avenue
lotel, Louisville, Ky., says: “Your Pe-
ra has completely cured me of that
^stressing disease, catarrh, which af
fected my head, nose, bronchial tubes,
nd, in fact, my whole system.
“ For nine years I bought everything
that was advertised as a sure cure for my
complaint, but it so happened that I did
not buy Peruna until nine months ago.
“After using your splendid remedy ac
cording to your directions I am today a
well man. I find Peruna to be the great
est family medicine ever discovered. I
shall always keep a bottle of it on hand.
“I can candidly state that had it not
been for Peruna I would have given up
my position, being too weak to do my
work. For eighteen years life was a
burden.”—Mr. William Flood.
Congressman J. A. Barham, of Santa
Rosa, California, writes:
“At the solicitation of a friend I used
your Peruna, and can cheerfully recom
mend it as an excellent remedy for all
catarrhal troubles. It is indeed a won
derful medicine.”—J. A. Barham.
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 a,nd he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.

The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, O.

a nice one.
The engine room is now being
finished in quarter sawed oak, and

will not be a prettier room in any
mill in the south. This work is
under the direction of Mr. George
E. Bennett, superintendent of the
carpentering of Pacolet mill num
ber 4, The wainscoting is highly
polished, and as soon as the car
pets are put down the room will
favorably compare with the finest
parlors in the best homes in
Gainesville.

“We will have to make an ex
ample of somebody by a vigorous
prosecution, however unpleasant
and distasteful that may be,” said
Mr. B. M. Stallworth Friday after
noon at the Pacolet mill. The
News man was looking at a bale
of “false packed” cotton, which
had just been opened, and this
was the occasion of Mr. Stall
worth’s remarks. “A man who
will false pack cotton will enter
your house at night and steal
money from your pockets, and he
is a dangerous man in any com
munity. We have been imposed
upon so many times that we have
determined to put a stop to it by
prosecuting the very next person
who puts off a ‘false pack’ upon us.
By our system of records we can
trace, even if it is the last bale
opened this season, just where we
got it, who bought it, etc, By
this means we will be able to find
out who sold the cotton, and he
will have to answer to the courts
for his work. Many people, you
know, think just because this is,
a large corporation that they can
impose upon it with impunity,
but I am more careful about the
company’s interests than I am my
own. Here it’s business out and
out, through and through, and
every man has to hold up his end
of the line. When it comes to
charity, this company always does
it’s part, and you would be sur
prised at the number of calls
made upon it, aud to which, if the
object be worthy, it promptly re
sponds. However, when it comes
to a thing like this,” said Mr.
Stailworth, referring to the “false
pack,” “we pay every cent the
cotton is worth on the market,
and we do not propose to be im-
posed upon any further by having
anything like this worked off on
us. We will institute vigorous
prosecution, and will land some
man in the penitentiary, where he
ought to be.”
Mr. Lamar Smith, who has been
head book keeper for the company
here for the past two years, left
Friday afternoon for Spartanburg
to be located in the head office of
the company. His friends here
regret to have him leave this
place.
Mr. D. E. Tench and Miss Can*
nie Shirley went to town Friday
and were married by Dr. W, F*
Quilliau. Both are employees of
the Pacolet and have numerous
friends who wish them well.
Married by squire F. M. Loden
at his office in Gainesville Thurs
day morning at nine o’clock,
Thomas Shuler and Miss Maude
Massey, both of New Holland*
For their honeymoon trip they
took a ride over the electric car
line, getting off at New Holland,
happier than many who travel
thousands of miles.
CLOSED AT $20,000 PROFITS
L>r. W. P. DeLaperriere Makes Big Haul
on Bis Cotton for This Season.
Dr. J. H. Daniel received a tel
egram last Saturday morning
from Dr. W. P. DeLaperriere from
Atlanta stating that he had just
closed out his cotton for this sea
son at a profit of $20,000. This is
a big sum to be made in one sea
son on cotton, but Dr. DeLaper
riere is a hustler and strikes it
rich occasionally on his cotton
deals. Dr. DeLaperriere last week
bought the John Braselton place
on the Jefferson road, consisting
of 9,000 acres of fine land. This
is one of the finest farms in north*
east Georgia.
Bryan Not a Candidate.
New York, Feb. 14.—The Even B
ing Telegram printed today an in
terview with William J. Bryan in
which Mr, Bryan said he would
not be a candidate for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination
next year.
“I have said on many occasions
that I am not and will not be
again a candidate for re-nomina
tion,” said Mr. Bryan, “and you
cannot make that statement too
emphatic. Under no considera
tion would I again go into the
field, and I say this now for the
benefit of my friends m the east.
I am a plain worker in the
Democratic ranks and am content
to remain as such.”
