Every organ, every duct, every passage, every" cavity of the body, is lined by mucous membrane. These mu cous membranes are liable from various causes to become irritated or inflamed. When this occurs it is called catarrh, and catarrh may be located in the head, nose,middle ear, throat, bronchial tubes, or air cells of the lungs, liver, bowels, kidneys, bladder, procreative and uri nary organs. Wherever there is a mu cous membrane, there catarrh may be also. To be sure, catarrh of these various organs has .been known by different names; that is, catarrh of the stomach has been called dyspepsia, catarrh ot the kidneys, Bright*s Disease; catarrh ot the bowels, diarrhoea or dysentery; catarrh of the procreative organs, fe- male trouble, and so on, and so on. But our claim is, that these are all one and the same disease—catarrh—and that our remedy, Peruna, is applicable to catarrh of all ot these various or gans. Peruna is not a "cure aU” ;it cures just one disease-catarrh. But since catarrh is able to fasten itself within the differ ent organs of the body, so it is that Pe runa cures affections of these organs. But we insist that Peruna cures one dis ease only. We claim that Peruna is the only internal, scientific remedy for ca tarrh yet devised. We claim that ca tarrh is a systemic disease; that is to say, it invades the whole system. We claim that Peruna is a systemic remedy \ that is to say, it eradicates catarrh from Catarrh is not a local dis- itofiice Building, Montgomery, Ala. [on. John C.

W, Bailey and Mrs. A. Rudolph of Gainesville, died last Saturday evening, of apoplexy, after an ill ness of a few days. She was in the seventy-fifth yegr of her age. Mrs. Collier Was a noble, Christian woman, and her life was full of good deeds. The funeral occurred Monday afternoon in Atlanta. iqn. J. K. Burke, Collector of Port, of [bile, Ala., writes: “ Peruna I can rec- [mend as a fine medicine. It has been fed in my family and as a tonic it is bellent. 1 take pleasnre in testifying Its fine qualities.” [,D. Barker, Postmaster of Mobile,^ Allow me the system, ease; Peruna is not a local remedy. Since catarrh invades the system, only a systemic remedy can reach it. This is, <^GAINESVILLE MERCHANDISE COMPANY in brief, our claim in assigning to the disease—catarrh—our remedy, Peruna. An instinctive and interesting treatise on catarrh in its different forms and stages, will be sent free to any address by The Peruna Medicine Co.,* Colum bus, Ohio. , i,,in a recent letter, says send to you my testimonial as to the >d qualities of Peruna.

The jury in the case of the state vs. Gus Fellows, tried at Jefferson last week, made. a mistrial after being out three days. . It is re ported that eleven pf the jury stood for conviction with recom mendation for mercyj and one for acquittal. It is likely that Fel lows will again be put on trial at the next regular term of Jackson superior court. The case went to the jury on Thursday and a mis trial was declared last Sunday. What was believed to be an ef fort to lynch Fellows was made at Jefferson Sunday night. Fortu nately the sheriff got wind of the affair a short time before the would-be lynchers reached the jail and he and his prisoner were then speeding toward the Atlanta jail, where Fellows has been placed for safekeeping.
