Very Remarkable Cure Of Diarrhoea.

"About six years ago, for the first time
in my life, had sudden and severe
attack of diarrhoea," says Mrs.
Alice Miller, of Morgan, Texas. 81 got
temporary relief, but it came back again
and again, and for six long years / have
suffered more misery and agony than I
can tell. 1t was worse than death. My
husband spent hundreds OF dollars for
physicians prescriptions and treatment
without avail Finally we moved to
Bosque county, our present home, and
one day | happened to see an ADVERTISE
ment of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and DiarrhOea Remedy with testimonial
of man who had been cured by it,
The case was so similar TO my own that
concluded to try the remedy. The re-
suit was wonderful. | could hardly real
ize that l was we'll again, or believe it
could be so after having suffered so long,
but that one bottle of medicine, costing
but few cents, cured me-" For sale by

WALHALLA, 8. ca,
WEDNESDAY,. JULY %, 1908.
wALHALLA as A SUMMER RESORT.

"Wby Walhalla is not one of tho popu-
lar summer resorts is a thing that 1 can
not understand" was remarked by a
gentleman from the lower part of the
State recently. People flock to Hen
dersonville and other points year after
year to spend the summer months, while
Walhalla is seldom even thought Of; and
yet Walhalla has every advantage over
Hendersonville as summer resort. 1t
seems strange that the people here do
not let tho outside world know some
thing of the town. You could fill every
house In town with summer boarders If
you chose to do so.'
The truth of the above does not need
much in the way Of substantiation. A
few years ago Walhalla had ten summer
visitors to one to-day, and they came
"year after year." were pleased with the
place and tho people, the climate, the
water-everything. But other places
erected modern hotels and offered greater
attractions in the way of amusements for
the fun-loving tourist, and these other
places have taken the summer visitors
from Walhalla. We made no effort to
hold them when we had them; we made
no attempt to get them back after they
began drifting to other quarters, and
to-day, by our silence and inactivity, we
practically put the summer tourist on
notice that it is a matter of utter indf-
ference to us whether ho comes or not.
If such were the case, very we'll; but is
it? Hardly, when one can hear the ques-
tion every day, "What has become of the
people who used to spend the summer in
Walhallap I wonder why they quit com
ing upp" These questions will continue
to be asked until we move out of the old
rnt we are in. We need new and mod.
ern hotel-something worthy the name
with plenty of room and conveniences
like those to which the visitors from the
city have been accustomed, and until we
got something of this kind we need not
expect the health and pleasure seekers to
worry themselves hunting for us. That
is our part of the business, and we NAV
as well go to work and look after this and
other details or quit the health resort
business entirely. We have good stand,
but we need new building, more room
and modern conveniences.
There is no questiones 20 the proba-
bility or possibility of sufficient sup
port for modern hotel at Walhalla.
The Biemann Hotel, Nield's Hotel, Hes
ter's Hotel and the Walhalla Hotel re.
spectively-all conducted at various peri
ods in the same building, with only the
excellence Of fare, hospitality and gen.
eral cleanliness to attract attention
have enjoyed a liberal patronage. With
good modern hotel, properly advertised
and managed with as much care in re-
gard to fare, ETC., as the others have been,
there is no reason to question the practi-
cability of large hotel for Walhalla as
sound business proposition.

ANOTHER TROLLEY ACCIDENT.
Benjamin McHenry and William Hotter Have
Miraculous Escape From Death.

That Benjamin McHenry and
William Hotter, of Berwick, were
not killed this morning is little
short of miracle. AS it was they
were both seriously injured, and
not for half an hour did they regain
consciou ness. The injuries sustain
ed were sprained back, severe
cut on the jaw and a bruised head
by Hotter, and a broken jaw, and a
bruised leg by McHenry. All OF
the latters' upper teeth were knock
ed out.
The accident occurred near Will
low Springs, and was the result, of
the men turning their horse directly
in front of the car. The wagon
was hurled over into a buckwheat
field. The horse was uninjured.
The car was in charge of motor
man Chas. Hotter and conductor
James Saltzer. Hotter saw the
party ahead of the car and had re-
duced the current, and rung the
bell, but as stated above they turn
ed in on the track, and the car
could not be stopped in time to
avoid the accident.

CONSTIPATION Cured.

ence with Cal-cura Solvent.
Or. David Kennedy's Wonderful New Medicine
Cured Him Promptly. Your Money Back
II II Does Not Cure.

Constipation leads to worse. Often it is
the cause Of appendicitis. Always it leads
to dangerous chronic disease. 1t should
not be neglected, nor should it be tempor-
arily relieved with drastic purgatives. Here
is case in point:
Mr.. G. S. Osterhoudt, Of Barrytown, N.
Y, was distressed with Indigestion, chronic
constipation and kidney trouble for four
years. He tried many medicines without
relief. He heard of Cal-cura Solvent, DR..
Kennedy's neu medicine, used it and began
to improve rapidly. All of his old com
plants have disappeared and he owes
everything to Cal-cura Solvent.
If your druggist does not have Cal-cura
Solvent, write to the Cal-cura Company,
Rondout, NY; but ask your druggist first.
$1.00 bottle. Only one size.
Guarantee: Your druggist will return
your money if Cal-cura fails to cure, and
The Cal-cura Company will pay the drug
gist. Remember, Cal-cura Solvent cures
9s% of all cases OF Kidney, Bladder and
Liver disorders.

always Intellectual and nearly always

nothing ofits unreliability. Another

advantage Monday evening.
