FIREMEN UNDER

FOUGHT FLAMES IN WOOD.

BIaze-WoOd valued at About

Hundreds of cords of wood. valued
at about $500, were destroyed by fire
last night at the wood yard of J. G.
Puder, on the Augusta road, just to
the rear of the Central of Georgia
passenger depot.
The wood had been piled irregularly
on the railroad embankment. which is
about seventy-five feet high, and this
embankment for several hundred feet
was solid sheet of flames, when the
firemen reached the scene. For more
than an hour the flames were fought
before their course could be checked.
A high wind made the work of the
firemen difficult. With FIVE streams
of water playing on the pile, the fire.
men still had hard fight to prevent
the flames from spreading.
Worked Under Bnrning Poles.
A number of telephone, telegraph
and Savannah Electric Company poles
were burned, and the danger from live
wires added to the difficulty of subdu-
ing the flames. The firemen worked
directly under the burning poles.
ONLY nf the yvirnG fell
as the flames on the poles were ex-
tinguished as rapidly as possible.
Street car traffic was blocked on the
West End line for more than an hour,
though the trolley wires did not go

THE FIRST STAGE OF CATARRH
A Serious Mistake Which Thousands
Are Making.

A Serious Mistake Which Thousands
Are Making.
THE first stage of catarrh is what
is commonly known as Catching
cold" 1t may be in the head,
nose, throat or lungs. It's beginning is
sometimes so severe as to cause chill
and considerable fever, or it may be so
slight as to not hinder a person from
his usual business. In perhaps a ma
jority of cases little or no attention is
Paid to the first stage of catarrh, and
hence it is that nearly one-half of the
people have chronic catarrh in some
form.
To neglect a cold is to invite chronic
Catarrh. AS soon as anyone discovers
the first symptoms of catching cold ne
should at once begin the use of Peruna
according to directions on the bottle
and the cold is sure to pass away with
out leaving any bad effects.
Unless this is done the cold is almost
sure to end in the second stage of ca
tarrh which is making so many lives
miserable. If Peruna was taken every
time one has a cold or cough chronic
catarrh would be practically an I'M
known disease.

Spring Time the Best Season of the
Year to Treat Chronic Catarrh.
notwithstanding that a Great Num-
Der of People Have Been Cured
of Chronic Catarrh by TAX
ing Pe-ru-na During the
Past Cold Season.
Yet 1t Cannot be Denied that the Cold
Wet, Stormy Weather Has Re-
tarded Many Cures.
And, in Some Cases, Actually Prevent
ed q Cure.

q PRINGTIME has come at last,
0and now is the time for all ca
tarrh sufferers to begin a sys-
tematic course of treatment for this
disease. The greatest difficulty in the
way of treating chronic catarrh is that
the patient is so liable to catch cold
during the treatment and thus delay
q auTa
This liability at this season of the
year is, in q great measure, removed,
and no one should neglect the oppor-
tunity to take treatment.
Peruna is acknowledged by everyone
to be the only reliable and unfailing
cure Of catarrh wherever it may be To-
Gated. When you take Peruna you
are not experimenting with an I'M
known remedy.

About five years ago it settled in the

that three bottles of Peruna relieved
me SO greatly that I felt encouraged
to continue its use. After taking elev-
en- bottles more I was entirely and
permanently cured. / had spent

A Cold in the Head or Throat is Al
most Certain to Develop Into
Catarrh if Neglected.

n ATARRH usually begins as cold
in the head or throat and is neg
lected until it becomes chronic;
then it begins to dawn on the victim
that he has catarrh. Unless he is
very foolish indeed he will not rest
easy until the catarrh is entirely cured
Thousands pay no attention to it until
it is too late.
II peruna is used the cold never be-
comes chronic, and hence catarrh is
prevented. But after catarrh has
become thoroughly established, Peruna
will cure it. but it will take much
longer.
Men and women OF national reputa-
ton as we'll as thousands in the hum
bier walks of life publicly indorse Pc
runa. Peruna does all that is claimed
for it. 1t cures catarrh.

V Adams street, Troy, N. Y, writes:
1--WE have used Peruna in our
family for years and am very pleased
to say that it cured me of catarrh of
the lungs when the doctors gave up all
hope of my recovery. l used Peruna
for six months and at the end of that
time my cough had disappeared, my
appetite was much better and l had
gained ten pounds and looked the pic
ture of health. I am in perfect health
now and feel that Peruna not only
cures catarrh, but builds UP the sys-
tenn, and is therefore a grand medi-
cine. Miss Margret Fahey.
The best cure or preventive known
to the medical profession up to date for
catarrh in all its conditions is Pc
runa. During the uncertain weather
of springtime it is an unnecessary haz-
ard for any one to neglect to guard
himself from taking disease, by taking
Peruna.

AT $40 the wind shifted to due south

for it has been II years since they
have raised crop. They put in

don't let anything bother them. As

Silver Peak.

A number of Colorado people are
getting things in shape to begin the
extraction of ore from the Blair
mines at Silver Peak, says the 30
nanza. A recent measurement of
the available ore exposed put it at
70, 600 tons and it will mill from IS
up. NE mines are equipped with a
S0-stamp mill and complete teaching
plant.
John Chatovich, owner of the
Mary mine, in the same vicinity, has
Just made cleanup of 81, 500. Since
last July the Mary has produced
something like $4,000. This mine
is one of the best in the district and
is opened up by nearly 1000 feet of
workings. One Slope is been worked
for $50 feet, the ore averaging S1o IA
ton. Mr.. Chiatovich has his own re-
duction plalt, which consists of a 10
stamp mill and cyanide works. He
is now extracting ore from the Mary,
preparatory to another run.
