FREE TO EVERY MAN.
THE PRESCRIPTION OF A GREAT REMEDY
Which Cured Him After Everything Else
 Failed.

Painful diseases are bad enough, but when man is slowly wasting away with nervous weakness the mental forebod- lngs are ten times worse than the most severe pain. There is no let-up to the mental suffering day or night. Sleep. is almost impossible and under such strain men are scarcely responsible for what they do. For years the writer rolled and tossed on the troubled sea of sexual weakness until it was a question whether he had not better take dose of poison and thus end all his troubles. But proVidential inspiration came to his aid in the shape of a combination of medi- clnes that not only completely rsetored his general health, but enlarged his weak, emaciated parts to natural size and vigor, and he now declares that any man who will take the trouble to send his name and address may have the pre- scription of this wonderful remedy free. Now, when 1 say free, I mean absolutely without cost, because I want every weak ened man to get the benefit of my eXpe- rienee.
 am not philanthropist, nor do pose as an enthusiast, but there are thousands of men suffering the mental tortureS of weakened manhood who would be cured at once could they but get such remedy as the one that cured me. Send me your name and address today. Do not try to study out how I can afford to pay the few postage stamps necessary to mail the prescription, but send for the remedy and learn that there are a few things on earth that, although they cost nothing to get, they are worth fortune to some most of us. Write to Thomas Slater Box 1S1, Kalamazoo, Mich, and the prescrip tion will be mailed in a plain sealed en- velope. S-30-su&wedtf

ATTALLA'S MUDDLE.
Democrats Gain Control of the Board of AL dermen and Discharge the PoIice-Re-
 publican Members Resign.

Gadsden, Sept. 5.-(Special )-Attalla' S municipal affairs are again in a muddle owing to the resignation of J. J. Steph- ems, who was recently elected county tax collector, from the Attalla board of alder men. Last night the balance of power was thrown into the hands of the demo- cratic members. who immediately pro- ceeded to fire the entire police force of the city, consisting of two day and one night officer. This was followed by the resignation of the other republican members of the board.
 Attalla appears to be unlucky in her domestic relations, as this makes the third time within few weeks that things have been in a similar tangle. The first was a contest over the election returns, when fraud was extensively charged, and the trial of which Colonel Denson figured in lengthy speech. The other time was when two policemen were placed under arrest upon the sensational charge of rape, of which they were ac- Quitted

 The big lumber mills of the Villa Rica Lumber company, near Bynums, was de- stroyed by fire this morning.

 The amount of the loss is not known. but 1t must have been large, and 1t Is said that there was no insurance.
 The fire started about o'clock this morning in some way and burned for many hours.
 This is the company in which MT. w. P. Robertson is so largely interested. and his many friends here will sincerely re- gret to hear of his misfortune.
 A considerable portion of the Southern railway track was wrecked or blockaded by the fire, and the eastbound passenger train. due here at 8:10 a. m.. was delayed nearly two hours.

There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced 1t incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be constitutional disease, and, there fore, requires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, O., is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from ten drops to a teaspoonful It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer $100 for any case it fails to cure.

Always d Top"

| Readers of newspapers during the past
year or more could hardly fail to notice
the published statements of leading drug
| gist in various parts of the country con.
corning their sales of Hoods Sarsaparilla.
1t was a matter of general comment
among dealers when Hoods Sarsaparilla
was first placed upon the market and
rapidly pushed itself to the front among
medicines. 1t is even more noteworthy
that 1t has steadily maintained its posi-.
ton ION top and that its sales continue
to be the largest in the world.
But the same mails that bring in the
statements of druggists that Hoods Sar-
saparilla is outselling all other blood
medicines, are also laden with testimonials
from people who have taken Hoods Sar-
saparilla and have found in it a cure for
their diseases and permanent relief from
suffering. The great sales of Hoods
Sarsaparilla are due to its great cures.
Hood Sarsaparilla cures diseases by
a great variety of diseases because a
great variety of diseases are caused by
impure and impoverished blood. 1t cures
completely and permanently because it
removes the cause OF the trouble 80 that
there no longer remains any reason for
the suffering. 1t cures scrofula, rheuma.
tism, catarrh, dyspepsia bAiousness, kid.
ney complaint, and other ailments be-
cause these diseases have their origin in
the blood.
1t is a beneicent work that Hoods Bar
saparilla is doing. 1t helps poor tired
mothers by purifying and enriching
their blood and giving them appetite and
strength. 1t builds up broken down con.
s%titutiOns, relieves tho pangs of rheuma-
tism and neuralgia, dispels the horrors Of
dyspepsia and nervous prostration, over
comes the SYMPTOMS of catarrh, ersdi-
Gates scrofula, salt rheum and all blood
diseases, and makes the weak n debili-
tated feel strong and vigorous. Hoods
%Sarsapsrilla is the n true blood purifier.
II IL the friend of the sufferer and the
foe of disease. Hoods Sarsaparilla sells
because Hoods Sarsaparilla cures.
