What Peruna Has Done * For
a Brilliant Actress./
a recent letter to The Peruna Medi-
le Co., Miss Julia Marloyre of New
fork City, has the following to say of
»runa:
«/ am glad to write my endorse-
tent of the great remedy, Peruna,
a nerve tonic. / do so most
irtily.” Julia Marlowe.
[Nervousness is very common among
romen. This condition is due to anemic
srye centers. The nerve centers are
reservoirs of nervous vitality.
nese centers become bloodless for want
proper nutrition. This is especially
ie in the spring season. Every spring
nost of invalids are produced as the
brect result of weak nerves.
This could be easily obviated by the
se of Pernna. Peruna strikes at the
)ot of the difficulty,by correcting the
Lgeation.$ Digestion furnishes nutri
tion for the nerve centers. Properly
digested food furnishes these reservoirs
of life with vitality which leads to
strong, steady nerves, and thus nour
ishes life.
Peruna is in great favor among wo
men, especially those who have voca
tions that are trying to the nervous sys
tem. Peruna furnishes the lasting in-
vigoration for the nerves that such
people so much need. Thousands of tes
timonials from women in all parts of the
United States are being received every
year. Such unsolicited evidence snrely
proves that Pernna is without an equal
as a nerve tonic and vital invigorator.
Buy a bottle of Peruna to-day.
If you do not receive all the bene
fits from Peruna that you ex
pected, write to Dr. Hartman, Co
lumbus, Ohio.
ALL HAD GOOD TIME.

allows celebrated the 83d anm-
rsary of the order at Bellmont

visitors and the occasion was

av the Odd fellows in that "sec-
bn also celebrated their anniver-
ty in a very appropirate manner.
A big basket dinner was spread,
tereeting speeches were made

A CATCHY OPERA.
Browne and a company of fifty
people. The opera is a bright,
catchy one and was well presented
and well received. The part of
Kah, the Chinese mandarin,essay
ed by Mr. Maclean, and Violet, the
Caplin’s daughter, by Mrs. H. M;
Ously, the latter having as sweet
a voice as evSr heard in Gaines
ville, were all that could have been
wished for and even surpassed
that of many of the professional
comic opera stars. The chorus
was also superb, and all in all the
opera was a splendid production.
THEY MADE $252.
Chattahoochee tribe, I. 0. Red
mep, ran an excursion to Atlanta

large crowd. The order netted
$252 from the trip. The members
of the order made the trip a pleas
ant one and everybody who went
enjoyed a nice day’s outing. The
tribe’s wampum was given a con
siderable boost by the excursion.
An Ancdote Of Stonewall Jackson
Just at this time, when the Brit
ish generals are charging the Boers
with wearing the captured uni
forms of British soldiers contrary
to the laws of war, it is interest
ing to recall one of Stonewall
Jackson’s edits on this same mat
ter. He ordered that any soldier
of his found wearing a Northern
uniform, even to coyer his naked
ness. should be instantly shot.
The incident shows the inherent
fairness of the man.—May Wo

He Gave His Address.
Harry Furniss tells a good
story of a distmgushed but irri
table / Scotch lecturer* The
gentleman had occasion to speak
id a small town in one of the Low
land counties, and it chanced
that he met with a' more than
usually loquacious chairman.
This genius actually spoke < for a
whole hour in “introducing” the
lecturer. He wound up by saying,
“It is unnecessary fo* me to say
more, but call upon the talented
gentleman who has come so far to
give us his address to-night.”
The lecturer came forward.
“You want my address? I’ll give
it to you. 322 Rob Roy Crescent,
Edinbrough-and I’m just off
there now. Good-night!”—May

The trank confession of a fault

Driving Trade Away.
In the first seven months of 1901
the Cubans imported woolen goods
to the value of $280,265, of which
1 per cent, came from the United
States; $298,738 in silks, of which
the United States sold 7-J- per cent ;
$1,090,240 of textiles other than
cotton, the United States supplying
7 per cent, and $3,560,087 of cot
ton goods, of which the United
States supplied 9 per cent. Thus
we absolutely drive away trade aud
force it into the hands of our com
petitors by our absurd tariff* res
