Additional Testimony as to the Merits Of
Mrs Joe Persons Remedy,

y gentleman remarked recently that
had stranger or an outsider come 10
North Carolina, and made the cures
among our people that Mrs. Joe Per
sons Remedy had made, the people
would have been stirred as never before.
Read this and suppose Il case:
Eleven years ago / had Il child that
was delicate from birth, and for six
months she was under constant care of
the best physician we had in our town.
But his medicine seemed powerless To-
control the bowel trouble, which had be-
come chronic dysentery. She also suf-
fcred from some aggravated blood trOu-
BILE. which caused large sores and risings
to break out on her body. Oft time
there would be as many as 20 or -.
We had several doctors to treat her ~
different times. but nothing reached hen
case. They would lance these risings,
but as soon as one was cured another
broke out, and the doctors gave me no
hope of her cure. After she had led
a life of agony and suffering for six
months. / was inspired to try Mrs. Joe
Persons Remedy. There was a change
for the better in twcnty-four hours. it
seemed to check the bowels at once, and
after using rev DOItIeS my Culu WIS
entirely cured, and has never since had
any sign of the trouble, and is now in
perfect health. \ few years after this
l had two sores to break out on my
ankle. and strange to say did not think
of Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy | was I'M
der the treatment of doctors for three
years but the sores continued to get
worse until they had eaten to the bone.
| then thought. of trying Mrs. Joe Per
sons Wash and did so, and it is almost
useless to say it soon made cure.
/ wish could speak so that every
man. woman and child, in North Caro-
lima could hear me, that / might tell
them what Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy
and Welsh did for me md mine I advised
!. enc of my friends who had been terri
4 DIE sufferer for long time, with nurse $
s0re mouth. She used the Remedy and
Wash. and it soon made a cure.
/ have recommended it to ever so
Amany of my friends. for Indigestion. and
&<ther ailments, and have never known
Eli to fail to cure yet. There is no medi-
line equal to it.

makes baby's advent easy and almost pain

In a recent issue Harper's Weekly, the
great Northern mugwump Republican
organ, said:
1T is no more right to appoint dis
tasteful negro as postmaster i'll the South
than it is right to appoint distasteful
white man to be postmaster in the
North
The successful campaign in North Car
DINA was made possible because it en-
braced equal denunciation of Mckinley
ism for putting negroes in the postoffices
with Russelism for putting negroes in
State offices, Both fell in the same con-
fict. There is no room in politics in
North Carolina for Russellism and Nc
KInleyism or the men who represent
either the national or State policy of hui
initiation of the people.
