Whether 1t be true that your true

not be decided without careful Cross

Patent medicines differ
One has reasonableness, an.
other has not. One has repu-
tation-another has not. One
has confidence, born of sue.
cess - another has only
"hopes."
Don't take it for granted
that all patent medicines are
alike. They are not.
Let the years Of uninter-
rupted success and the tens
of thousands Of cured and
happy men and women, place
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and DR.. Pierce's

And there isn't a state or
territory, nor hardly a
country in the world, whether
its people realize it or not,
but have men and women
in them that're happier be-
cause Of their discovery and
their effects.
Think of this in health.
Think Of it in sickness. And
then think whether you can
afford to make the trial if
the makers can afford to take
the risk to give your money
back as they do If they do
not benefit or cure you.

As the train going down from
Charleston to Savannah ran in on a
siding to wait for the up train to pass,
we saw q large alligator in u pond OF
the other side of the fence. This pond
had been made by n fill in the railroad
bed and was about 200 feet long by
forty broad On the opposite side, and
not twenty feet from the water, was n
negro cabin, and negro stood in the
open door looking at the train. A
dozen men leaped to the ground: pulled
their revOlvers and began firing at the
reptile. He was hit by two or three
bullets at once and down he went out
Of sight. As he disappeared the negro
came running down to us, hat in hand,
and pointing to hole made in the
head-gear by Il glancing bullet he ex-
claimed:
"Now, den, whsr is dat white man
who shot dat bulletp"
No one could say, us we had all
been firing, but one of the shooters
finally stepped forward and said:
