MR.. A. ]. MCCULLOUGH.

Munyon has thousands of advocates
throughout the United States and Canada,
but there is no more enthusiastic adrnirer
of Munyon's Remedies than Mr.. A. 7. Nc
Cullough, of 146 North Washington street,
Brazil, Ind. Mr.. Mccullough has Just
written the following letter to the Munyon
Company:
Brazil Ind. Sept. q. 1885,

able reports all along the line. Your REM
edieS are doing a good work and are a god
send TO the afflicted. | have been using
your remdies now two years, and have not
had physician to visit me during that
time. For twelve years before / went to
tor TO visit me from two to six times, and
was taking medicines almost daily.
80, you see. l can afford to recommend
Munyon's Remedies. They are cheap and
. effective. For the last two years my medi-
cine bill has been about $50. A disease that
these remedies will not reach is without
question incurable. l have not language to
express their merits. Yours, very truly.
A. j. MCCULLOUGH.
The cause for Mr.. McCullough's firm be-
lief in the Munyon Remedies may be found
in the following testimonial which he sent
the Munyon Company short time ago. He
says:
Over year ago called at Munyon's Office in In
danapos in q very bad condition. Ny blood
was poor, bad circulation. action of the heart
weak and l suffered fIom nervous debility
and also stomach trouble. l had been much-
doctored man for twelve years. having spent
over $1,000 IN effort to get relief. / had
used quantities of Quinine, morphine. patent
medicines, phosphate, iron and strychnia and
even underwent hypoder1n.c injections. but all
10 no avail. placed myself under treatment
with Munyon's physicians and in very short
space of time was completely cured and the
whole cost to me fer treatment and medicine
was but triffe over co. Mnnyon made new
man of me and 1 have had none of these
troubles since
The above is but sample of what Mum
yon is doing daily for the sick and afflicted
of this country. What he has done for Mr..
Mccullough he can do for you.
He has fifty-seven different cures for fif-
ty-seven different ailments. and they can bo
found at every drug store, mostly % cents
a. vial. If you are in need of medical adj
vice his doctors are at your service abso-
lutely free. You are not expected to pay

cal treatment. If you live at a distance and

African I.imbless Cotton.

The editor of Tue LEADER had the
pleasure last Friday afternoon Of visit
ing the Menelas plantation, near town,
and while there, was shown by Mr.. A.
Mikas a patch of Jackson's African
Limbless Cotton, with which he is ex.
perimenting this season. We we're
quite familiar with the "Dixon Cot.
tom grown extensively in Mississippi
several years ago, and, unless appear
ances are very deceptive, the African
Limbless is nothing more than the
old "Dixon Cotton" slightly devel-
oped. Mr.. Mikas has about one acre
in the "Limbless." Really, it is not
d" limbless :" at all, but in most cases
has from two to four large limbs or
shoots coming out from the main
stock, and the whole growing up in a
sugar-loaf or pineapple cheese shape
toward the top, with small stems or
twigs on which the leaves, squares and
bolls are formed. 1t was planted in
rows and hills 81 feet apart, one stalk
to the hill. Owing to the excessively
wet season and the wide space, the
growth of the stalks seems abnormally
large, their height ranging from six to
ten feet. The land is fertile hill land.
1t was not fertilized this season, but
last year and previous years was fertil-
lied with stable manure. From this
acre, Mr.. Mikas has gathered $50
pounds of seed cotton, and will proba-
bly, get ESQ pounds more. Evidently,
due to the wet season, it did not attain
its best in fruiting, and there we're not
far from an average of ten grown bolls
to the stalk that were rotted by the
rainy weather. All things considered
the yield was % per cent. greater than
other cotton growing near on the same
quality of land. 1t is short staple
variety and the staple is very strong
THE LEADER would be glad if Others
who have experimental with "Africar
Limbless," would report their expert
ence. Later Mr. Mikas will report the
exact results from his acre, with pro
portion of seed and lint.

There is great deal of sickness here
at this time.
Mrs. Addie Abortion is a sufferer
with neuralgia.
We are sorry to know that Bro. j. A.
Scarborough has an idea of leaving our
vicinity.
We've had few bright days and a
little frost, but not enough to kill 1el-
low Jack.
4 few of our weak faithed Christians
have left Wellman for fear of the vel
low fever. "Oh, ye of little faith, why
do you doubt?"
A good many of our people were
very much surprised to learn that 1t
was cold enough for ice in Brookhaven
| Thursday morning. We are told that
it was a positive fact.
We are sorry to note that Johnnie
| Carlisle, who has been suffering for sew
eral months with gravel and gall
stones, is yet no better; sometimes it
seems that death will be his only relief.
We we're glad to see that Jeems is
blowing his flute again. 1t seems that
owing to carelessness on the part of
Sister Jeems, he has got overloaded
with gas again. You're right, Jeems,
we know of the Brookhaven yellow
fever liar, but if the yellow fever can
be bluffed or blown away Bogue Chitto
| is safe.
We have had two protracted meetings
recently. We don't know whether the
Methodist meeting really broke up or
not, as the preachers gave out an ap.
pointment for the next day and then
Slipped out and left the congregation
without preacher. Then Rev. Mr.
Bullock, of Lawrence county, fell IL
and conducted the meeting for tn,
Baptists several days, until he got 81
frightened with the report of yellow
fever that he was forced to abandon i
and go back to the woods, and encour
aged the congregation to follow.
