A difficult is at the door OF every de
light.

There is more Jatarrh in this section
of the country than ali other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be lnourabIe.
For great manv years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and preecrib-
ed local ramedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment, Halls CatarIh Cure
manufactured by f. +. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It's taken inter.
nalIy in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. It acts directly on the blood
and mucuous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials.

They Say is of Local Interest.

When an incident like the following
occurs right here at home, it is bound
to carry weight with our readers SO
many strange occurrences go the rounds
of the press, are published as facts, poo
pie become skeptical. On one subject
skepticism is rapidly disappearing This
is due 70 the actual experience of our
citizens and their public utterances re-
garding them. The doubter must doubt
no more ia the face of such evidence as
this. The public statement of reputa-
bic citizen living right here at home,
one whom you can see every day leaves
no ground for the skeptic to stand on.

DAMAGE is DONE BY CYCLONE.
Severe Wind and Hail Storm Near
Americus

Americus
During the rain yesterday afternoon
cyclone struck near the county poor
farm, three miles west of Americas,
dong great damage to crops and fences
on the farm.
There was no loss of life, though
much property damage resulted.
The cyclone, for such it was, dipped
down upon the farm with all the sud
denness and severity Imaginable.
Fortunately, the cluster of buildings
occupied by the paupers was missed
by few yards only. The damage done
on this farm was to the growing crops,
fencing and trees.
One peach tree, wrenched off at the
base, was carried quarter mile.
Nearly thousand feet of fencing on
the poor farm was carried away. A
terrific hailstorm following wellnigh
ruined the crop.
On the farm of L. D. Law, adjoining
the poor farm, the greatest damage was
done. Here, houses were Ieveled, trees
uprooted and the crops destroyed by
the terrific hailstorm.
Every clubhouse on the Law farm was
leveled with the ground.
The dwelling house was shifted from
its foundations six or eight feet. The
family rushed terror-stricken from the
moving building.
Fortunately, the dwelling house did
not collapse, else the loss OF, life would
have been great. The building was
badly damaged and will have to be par
TALLY pulled down,
Mr.. Laws crop sustained great dam
age from the hail. The cyclone did no
other damage, so far as known, except
on these two farms.
