sridge made a proposition to the
school Sunday to teach a union vocal
school. He is to teach five days at
Bethany and five at Live Oak. His
mode of getting up this singing
school was to appoint several young
men, Messrs, S, R. Sanders, Johnnie
Jordan and Harry Tyson, to work it

fered untold agony from consump¬
tion. accompanied by hemorrhages;
and was absolutely cured by Dr.

tion, Coughs and Colds. He declares

parison with this marvelous cure ;
would have it, even if it cost a hun¬
dred dollars a bottle. Asthma,
Bronchitis and all throat and lung
affections are positively cured by

sumption. Trial bottles free at W.

Many old soldiers now feel tho ef¬
fects of the hard service they en¬
dured during the war. Mr. Geo. S.
Anderson, of Rossville, York couty,
Penn., who saw the hardest kind of
service at the front, is now frequent¬
ly troubled with rhuematism. “I
had a severe attack lately," he says,
and procured a bottle of Chamber¬
lain’s Pain Balm. It did so much
good that I would like to know what
you would charge for me one dozen
bottles.” Mr. Anderson wanted it
both for his own use and to supply
it to his friends and neighbors, as
every family should have a bottle
of it in their home, not only for
rhuematism, but lame back, sprains,
swelling, cuts, bruises and burns,
for which it is unequalled. For

would help him, hut after giving

noticed an improvement, and one
bottle cured him entirely. It is the
