Farmers generally are about through har-
vestiug their crops with the exception OF
oats and hay.
Threshing has commenced, but the wheat
crop in many instances turns out poorly.
Early potatoes are small and not over half a
crop Corn looks very promising. Hay is
also short in this locality.
A big time is expected at Providence
Church on the Doth. See notice in advertis-

MAJOR MADISON
DECLARES PE-RU-NA THE CREATES.
REMEDY EVER PREPARED.

EVER PREPARED.
Pe-ru-na attained great popular
ity among the officers of the army
during the late war with Spain.
A great many letters yer received
from field and hospital corps, indi-
eating that this popular climatic
remedy has become we'll nigh in
dispensable to them. Pe-ru-na is
not only a national remedy, but
has proven itself a national bless
ing.
Major Algernon A. MADISON, of
the Tenth Volunteer Regiment,
stationed at Macon Ga, in a recent
letter to DR.. Hartman, from Wash
iDgton, d. c., says: Il think there
is no better medicine on earth than
your Pe-ru-na for catarrh. 1t has
surely cured me. 1t would take a
volume to tell you all the good it
has done for me. Pe-ru-na is I'll e
greatest remedy ever prepared, and
[ think [ have tried them ALL"
Chronic catarrh is often a very
stubborn disease to cure. Some
cases will resist the best of treat
ment during the winter months.
To catch cold during the treatment
of chronic catarrh is to delay the
cure if not entirely defeat it. The
spring months are far more favor
able for the treatment of this dis
ease. Two weeks treatment now
may prove to be of more value
than two months treatment dur
ing the winter season. No one
should neglect this opportunity.
