INDUSTI -OLUME xiv. GAINESVILLE, GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 4, 1903. ES CATARRH IKE A TERRIBLE CYCLONE grip bacillus has passed over our coun try, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, aving behind it a dark cloud of an- sh and despair. | Catarrh follows grip as effect follows ause. A multitude of catarrh victims will pring up in the trail of the awful epi demic of grip that has just passed over ir fair country. The hope to these people is Peruna. Most people know this already. Everyone who has had the least touch If grip, should not fail to take a course pi treatment with Peruna. Peruna eradicates every vestige of the sease and leaves the system in a nor- oal condition. Hon. Joseph B. Crowley, Congressman !rom Illinois, writes from the National lotel, Washington, D. C., as follows: “After giving Peruna a fair trial I can [Cheerfully recommend your remeay to syone suffering with coughs, colds, la grippe and all catarrhal complaints.”— l B. Crowley. Hon. George H. White, Congressman om North Carolina, writes: “I am more than satisfied with Peru- Ra. and find it to be an excellent remedy [tor the grip and catarrh. I have used it ruy family, and they all join me in ecommending it as an excellent rem- My.”—George H. White. Hon. J. p. Megrew, Superintendent U. S.

Miss Anna Russell, Past Worthy Coun selor, Loyd Mystic Legion, 293 Endieott Building, St. Paul, Minn., writes: “ For years I have unfortunately found my system in a peculiarly receptive con dition for catarrh when I was exposed in any way to inclement weather. At those times I would be severely afflicted with la grippe and its unpleasant con sequences. “ Now for the past year and a half I have used Pefuna in such cases and have found that it not only cures me quickly, but it also cleanses my blood and ren ders me less liable to catch cold. It is the finest preventative of colds that I know of and a very superior tonic.”— Anna Russell. Miss Emily Milburne, President of the Westside Young Woman’s Club, No. 152 West Congress street, Chicago, Ill., writes of several members of the elub of which she is president, who have had the Grip and have been quickly restored to health by Peruna. Mr. Nicolas F. Rossiter, of 463 Nor wood avenue, Cleveland, O., had a severe attack of the Grip, was very sick and under the physician’s care. He, like many others, passed the acute stage but did not receive strength. Peruna not only quickly restored him to his former health, but to much better health than he has had for years. He gives Peruna all the praise. Hon. Max J. Porges, Alderman of the Eighth District, residing at36Rivington Four acres of land owned by Mrs. Fletcher, east side Alta Vista cemetery, was offered to the council for sale.

He also writes that he knows a large num ber of people who have been cured of th© Grip by Peruna. Hon. Charles W. Culkin, Alderman of the Seventh Assembly District of the Borough of Manhattan, residing at 45 Eighth avenue, New York, writes that he was laid up several days with the Grip. On the fifth day he was advised to try Peruna. He did so and found him self better within twenty-four hours. This remedy soon restored him to his usual vigorous health. Mr. Martin Edwards, President of the County Clare Men’s Benefit Society, 522 West Forty-Ninth street, New York, writes that he was cured of the Grip by a short course of treatment with Peruna. Miss Blanche Dumont, President of the Athenia Club, 4110 Aldrich avenue North, Camden Place, Minneapolis, Minn., says she was cured of the Grip. Nothing helped her until she tried Pe runa. Felt better next day after begin ning its use. Was able to be out of bed the third day. She also tells of others who were cured by Peruna. La Grippe is epidemic catarrh. Pe runa cures catarrh, hence Peruna is a specific for la grippe. 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 gratis. Address Dr. Hartman, President of The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio. M. Bush, colored, for restaurant and barber shop on West Spring street. The street committee was, on motion, instructed to notify Mr. W. A. Ram- seur, agent Southern Ry. Co. for said company to show cause before the mayor and council, why it shall not take care of the water fall at South end Main street, through their prop erty, the original channel. The following resolution was, on mo tion passe 1: “Resolved, that all street railway companies building street car lines along the streets of the city of Gainesville shall be required by the street committee of said city to macad amize, or otherwise pave their road bed between rails and two feet on each side thereof, to a level with top of rails, said macadum shall be at least four inches thick under the ties on firm foundation, and six inches on fills.” Petition for a water main on Brad ford street, between Church street and College avenue, was referred to water committee. The bill boards on corner Main and Broad streets and in center of public square were, on motion, ordered re moved and the lots cleaned up. No other business the council ad journed. P. N. PARKKr, Geo. Lathem. Mayor. Clerk. “If the city don’t put up some kind of signal on those fences across the streets where they ar6 putting down that macadam the first thing you know they are go ing to have two or three damage suits on their hands. Somebody is going to drive into one of those fences some dark night and hurt themselves, or some one is going to jump off the street cars and come in contact with one of those barricades and get seriously in jured and then you will hear of Mr. So-and-so having a case against the city of Gainesville; and the city might lose the case, and there you are. Of course it is an oversight on the part of the authorities and nobody is to blame but if the city should have to pay out a few hundred dollars on ac count of this oversight, that will not relieve the taxpayers. Now, the best thing to be done is to hang up a red light on each one of those fences. Kerosene oil is a good deal cheaper than law-suits, even if the city should win the case in court.” *** “Did you ever run into a yel low jacket’s nest in the spring of the year—or any other time, aB for that matter? I did once—but I hope I will never have to under go that experience again. It was many years ago. I was a boy then, but I recall the occurence as well as if it were yesterday. It hap pened one Sunday afternoon. When I was a boy I had to get up in the morning and build ths fires for the women folks to cook break fast. Boys don’t do that way now. The boys and me a lie in bed in this age of progress and prosper ity, while the women get up and prepare for them a good warm breakfast. You see it might cause the delicate young men of this age to catch the grip—la grippe I should say—to get up in the cold too early in the morning. It wont hurt the women. They are created in such a way as to stand anything. But, I have dropped my yellow jacket story. As I said, I stirred up a yellow jacket’s nest one Sunday afternoon. I had forgotten to get my pine with which to kindle the fires on Sat urday afternoon, so I slipped out on Sunday afternoon to split some off of an old pine stump that stood just across the road in front of the house. I lived in the coun try over in South Carolina, and I believe South Carolina yellow jackets can out-sting Georgia yel low jackets, too. Well, I had not hit the stump more than two or three licks before something hit me on the end of the nose. I had on a pair of Kentucky jeans breeches and split-leather, copper toed boots. I had forgotten to tuck my pants down on the inside of my bootlegs. }t was Sunday, remember. I believe yellow jack ets like boots, for all that could crawled down on the inside of my boots and those that could, not get m took the upward course. Now, those yellow jackets reminded me that it was Sunday and that I was committing a sin in splitting pine on the holy Sabbath. I did not NUMBER 43. know unti that day, either, that a fellow *8 memory extended so far down his body. It seemed as though ^wherever those yellow jackets touched me they would awaken a memory—a warm mem ory with a red place all around it, I remember that one of them took a seat on my upper lip. Guess he thought it was a rosebud. When he went away it looked like a mushroom, painted pink. The next day I wrapped a bed-quilt around it to take out the heat so that I could get out of the back doqr. Yellow jackets crawled all over me and I was afraid to brush them off. You see yellow jackets are quick-tempered and I did not want to hurt their feelings-—they had no respect for mine. They got in my hair, too. and I had to beat my head against the ground to mash them, and they had to comb them out the next day with a fine-tooth comb, and I had to wear a bow-basket for a hat for three weeks, to keep from rubbing the skin off of those high protrud ing places those yellow devils left on my cranium. Two or three of them seemed to have a special grievance against me where my pants and vest come together. They must have had an idea that my pants were too large and wanted to make me swell up so that I would fit them—the pants— the yellow jackets fit me all right. Well, to make a long story short I got to the house the best way I could—I crawled I think—I had on nothing but my socks and boots and those yellow jacket stings. My sister’s best fellow was there, too. He left as soon as I crawled in. I know he was glad of my fight with the yellow jack* ets, because the Sunday before I had slipped a lizard down his back while he was talking to sev* eral young ladies. But lizards are not as bad as yellow jackets. The next day they told me I looked like I had the dropsy. I could not see, my eyes being closed, not in sleep, but in pain. My bead resembled a one-horse wagon load of summer squashes, and I felt curious and painful all over in spots. I never split any more pine nor built any mor fires for a week, and to this day I have a horror of old pine stumps. My graudmother said it was good for me—which I failed to see, for I felt awful bad—because I ought to have split the pine on Saturday, and I did ever after that, but 1 never monkeyed with a pine stump any more.
