P. A. DUNN's ACCOUNTS.
Part of the Shortage Will Be Paid to
 the State.


 Prattvile, Aug. 7.-(Special. )-The State Examiners report upon the books and accounts of Perry A. Dunn, de- ceased, former Tax Collector of this county, does the dead Tax Collector an injustice perhaps, in that he places all the money not turned in by the dead Tax Collector as being that much short. In a sense this is true, but the fact, as the writer understands it, is that while there is more than 5000 due the State. a part of this has been collected in the regular course of business for the month of June, but was not turned in by MT. Dunn before he died on the 9th day of July. That the money, or at least a greater part of 1t, Is safe and will be turned over to the proper off, cers in good time.
 The cotton crop In this part of the country has very greatly improved dur ing the past few days and the pros poets are bright for fairly good yield Corn is not so good in compar- ison.
 The citizens of Prattville held a pri- mary last Monday night in the Court House. The meeting was harmonious throughout and the best of feeling pre- vailed at all times. Dr. J. W. Hagler was named for Mayor, and c. Cooke Spigener, I. A. Kent, M. A. Graham, Joseph B. Bell and Dr. J. E. Wilkin- son were named for the office of Coun- cilmen. This is as good ticket as has been nominated in many years, and 1t is complimented on all sides.

Professor Talfourd Smith, Principal siloam High School, Siloam, Ga., writes |:
 "With much pleasure recommend Peruna to all who may be suffering with any trouble of the respiratory organs. I have been using it in my family for the past five or six years and find it to be almost household necessity. Peru ma Is truly . grand cafarrh remedy and general tonic and will do aH that is claimed for # by the manufacturers. !" ...Prof Taffourd Smith.
 Catarrh is inflammation of the mucous membrane. It may be in the mucous membrane lining the eyes or the pelvic organs, throat, stomach, liver, bowels or kidneys.
 Catarrh is catarrh wherever located. Peruna cures catarrh wherever located. Peruna is an internal remedy; not a local application.
 Catarrh is a systemic disease, not a local disease. If Peruna will cure catarrh in one place it will cure it in any other

place, because Peruna is asystemic rem cdy. It reaches the disease through the circulation in each organ. It eradicates the disease by eradicating 1t from the system.
 Peruna eradicates catarrh from the system in the same way that the prscti- cal farmer eradicates weeds from his fields. The sensible farmer does not think of cutting of the top of tho weeds to kill them. He pulls them up by the roots. Dr. Hartman, the originator of Peruns, has used this remedy for the last forty years with great success as a specific for catarrh.
 A free book written by him will be sent to any address. It contains the re- suits of his forty years experience with Peruna, and will be found of great inter- est to those afflicted with catarrh of any organ of the body.
 MT. F. E. Bracket, Medford, Mass, writes:
 "I have a bottle of Peruna and Mama lin in use in my house two-thirds of the time. If take it when feeling 8 little indisposed it braces me right up, and keeps me in such fine condition that I don't catch cold, and that is life and happiness to one of my business. am a teamster, and when tho membrane of my nose is swollen at night after driv- ing in our east winds and fogs, take . dose of Peruna on going to bed at night and get up all right in the morning. It also makes the blood circulate, and is sure death to rheumatism."-Mr. F. E. Bracket.
 If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving . full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.
