The following correspondence of
great interest to all:
St. Louis, March 3, 1886.
Messrs, Barrett A Co., Augusta, Ga.
Dear Sirs—l feel it my duty to the public
generally to publish my experience with votir
most valuable preparation, U. H. P. I was
suffering a great deal with biliousness and
dyspepsia and felt terribly. I was going to be
married in a few days, and was at a loss what
to do, as I was generally depressed. I fortuna
tely met Mr Newt Heggie on the streets of St.
Louis, when be gave me a bottle ol H. H. P.
It acted like a charm, and in three days I was
perfectly relieved. So pleased was I with the
effects 1 bought a dozen bottles, and for the
sum of |5 spent I received ten fold returns.
Yours truly,
Thomas G. Brouke.
The above is forcibly illustrated by
the following private letter to Mr.
Heggie:
St. Louis, March 3,1886.
Dear Newt—How I can ever thank you
sufficiently for your recommendation of H. H.
P. 1 do not know, but rest assured I feel under
many obligations. After my wife and I return
ed from our bridal tour nothing would do Sally
but to have her mother live with us. She
came, and from the first began quarreling
with the cook, the butter, house girl and all,
and in fact raising a row about everything.
Nothing could please her. The tea was too
strong or too weak. When we had pie she want
ed pudding. At last patience ceased to be a
virtue, and, being strongly under the impress
ing she was crazy, I sent for Dr. J. . He
after a careful diagnosis of her case, said she
was suffering from biliousness and torpid liver.
I then saw at last peace and happiness in view.
I induced her to take H. H. P. Even the first
dose made a marvelous change, and after
having used two bottles, “mirabli dictu,” she
lias become the nicest old lady in the land. If
1 had not fortunately met you on the street I
fear that ere this 1 would have been a lunatic.
My advice to you is, if you ever get married (
and to all otheV young couples, is to lav in
a few bottles if *H. H. P. With kind regards, I
am your friend, Tom.
N.B.— The neighbors are surprised at the
great change in my mother-in-law. Tell the
proprietors of H. H.*P. that when I tell them
the cause they will have to enlarge their busi
ness. bend me one dozen by express.

50 cents a bottle.
Try it once and you
will be pleased.

vinced.

An enlivening crowd assembled on

Everything harmoniously agreed to
make a quiet and pleasant day.
Mr. J. C. Hudson assuredly fell
upon fisherman’s luck a few days
ago, for, after hours of patient sitting,
be returned home with a single
muscle, the fruits of his toil. Strange
it may seem to many, but it is never
thelees true, that the muscle was
caught with hook and line.
The Narrow Guage is by conve
nience a blessing to this country,

Col E. B. Brinson, a leading salse

acquiesce the statement, owing to
the accomodation it renders him in
visiting his many friends in this sec

Dr. J. W. Pilcher last Sabbath.
A Suggestion.
Editors Sentinel:
Please give this a place in your
columns. Whilst we are a law
abiding people, and submit cheer
fully to the will of the majority, and
not the minority, knowing that the
stock law is obnoxious to at least
two-thirds of our citizens, I think
I can clearly see away to obviate, a
great deal of trouble, and also hard
feelings which the stock law has
brought about. It is simply this: to
herd our stock. Those who own
land mutually agree to allow stock
to be herded on their land, those
having stock can hire soma trust
worthy person to attend to their stock
and take care of them, until after our
grain is cut, when we could turn
them in our pastures. I think that
would save a heap of hard feeling,
which the law has engendered. It
would also be a benefit to the rail
roads; it would also be a protection
against thieves, etc. In my humble
opinion cattle and all kind of stock
would thrive as they do now. We
would then know our stock was safe
from thieves, also dogs. I allude
principally to cattle and sheep.
Respectfully, A.
