1t has recently been discovered that
the germs that produce Malaria, breed
and multiply in the intestines and from
there spread throughout the system
by means of the blood. This fact ex-
plains why Malaria Is hard to cure by
the old method of treatment. Ouinine,
Iron, ETC., stimulate the nerves and
build up the blood, but do not destroy
the germs that cause the disease.
Rydale's Tonic has a specific effect
upon the intestines and bowels, freeing
them from all disease breeding mi
crobes. 1t also kills the germs that
infest the veins and arteries. 1t drives
from the blood all poisonous matter
and makes 1t rich and healthy.
RYDALE'S TONIC is blood
builder, nerve restorer, and Malaria
destroyer. Try 1t, it will not disap-
point you.

Major James Ambler returned from
Greenville Friday, where he has been on
and most highly respected citizens OF
the county. The major is now in his
S9th year, but still walks erect and is
very full of life and viyacity for one of
his years. He represented what was
formerly Pendleton district, comprising
the counties of Anderson, Pickens and
Oconee. He was in the Legislature from
1854 to 1858 and is very fond of relating
incidents that happened far back in the
good old days long before the Civil War
devastated our country. With the ex-
ception of Dr. Joseph ID. Pope, professor
of law in the South Carolina College,
Maj. Amber is the only living representa-
tive of the South Carolina Legislature
that met in 1864. 4.-Pickens Cor. News and
