Peruna cures various diseases of the
nose, throat, lungs, stomach, kidneys or
pelvic organs, because twO-thirtls Of the
fills of mankind are due to catarrh.
With healthy mucous membranes clim-
ate diseases lose their terror, the system
is enabled to throw off contagion and
health follows inevitably.
Catarrh of the lungs is, ordinarily,
known as consumption; also called tu-
bcrculosis. In these eases the catarrh
has usually found its way into the lungs
by the gradual extension Of the disease
from the throat through the bronchial
tubes. Consumption is the natural
termination of all cases of neglected
chronic catarrh. Every one who is at
tlicted with chronic catarrh is liable to
be attacked with consumption at any
time. In the first stages of the disease
Pcruna is q sure cure; in the later stages
of the disease Peruna can be relied upon
to produce great benefit, and in a large
per cent of cases produce permanent
cure. All those afflicted with this dread
disease should begin at once treatment
with Peruna.

Rotation of Crops.

One of the most common mistakes in
the worlds agriculture has been the
norrotc alton of crops. The growing of
the same crop on the same field year
after year was the direct cause of the
apparent early exhaustion OF the land
in some OF the older countries of the
world and the reducing OF the peasant
try to semi-destruction. The practice
of rotating crops is comparatively
modern one. though it was doubtless
practicod IN small way by some of
the leading agriculturists of olden
times. But the process had habit
against il. When a man had planted n
certain crop on Il certain piece of land
for ten years he had the idea pretty
we'll fixed I'm his mind that that was
the land best adapted to that crop. This
resulted in some cases i'm the exhaus-
tion of the mumus in the soil to such
al extent that II would no longer hold
q fair amount of water to carry the
crop through the droughty season.
Hence. soil burned and dried. and di-
minutive plants bearing an insignificant
amount OF seed
The benefits of rotation are now well
established. especially for lands that
are comparatively level and well
drained enough to permit of the grow
ing of 4 number of crops or different
kinds of crops On the same land in sue
Cessive years a number OF things are
gained that would otherwise be want
ing. In the first place. the readily
available plant food in the soil is less
likely to be exhausted. No plant selects
from the soil exactly the same kind of
food I'm the same proportions. Corn.
clover. and potatoes are SO different i'm
their feeding habits that they are GER
tain to take from the soil entirely diff

has been SO general

~ATARRH has been so generally
- thought to be disease confined to
the head and throat that it is very
difficult to get many people to under
stand that catarrh may effect any partof
the human BODY. All the organs of the
body are lined with mucous membrane ;
all the passages of the body are also lin
ed with mucous membrane. Wherever
there is q mucous membrane there ca
tarrh may exist.
Perhna Is not 4 cure-all. It cures CO.
tarrh. This is all that is claimed for it.
Very few people can honestly say that
they are entirety free from catarrh. A
cough Is catarrh of the bronchial tubes
A cold Is acute catarrh. Chronic catarrh
is simply an old cold. The people who
catch cold easily have catarrh in tho
system. Thousands OF people have ca
'srrh who do not mistrust it. Pcruna

THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

On the money question the
Democratic party is to be con-
graduated on having emerged
from the dangers of disruption
which threatened it and".,upon its
return to policy more in har-
mony with the great financial in
terests of the country on that sub
ject. Naturally, and true to its
time-honored tenets, the platform
of the Democracy advocates re-
duction of the tariff on imports,
to the point of only providing a
sufficient revenue to meet the ex-
penses of the government, honest
~ ana economically administered.
In this it proclaims a strong de-
nunciation of trusts and trade
combinations, for these have
been almost exclusively fostered
by the high tariff chimera of the
Republican party.
On the race question, while the
Republicans enunciate doctrine
which suggests strife and turmoil
to the people of the South, in a
demagogic hope of enlisting the
active support of the colored vo-
ters throughout the doubtful
States, the Democratic platform
on the subject is more high toned,
statesmanlike and patriotic. and
offers the only wise solution to a
grave question which is becoming,
for second time, too turbulent a
factor in the public politics of the
commonwealth.
It is needless to conceal
the fact that the people of the
South will resent Crumpackerism
and any and all interference with
the Congressional representation
Of the several States as it now ex-
lists. On our foreign possessions,
on the Panama inter- oceanic canal
and on the growth of militarism,
we honestly believe the Democratic
platform has the true ring.

Parker and Davis. will be elected.
We hope SO.

The war in the far East, between
Russia and Japan, is assuming
colossal proportions and in de.
structiveness promises to equal
the great civil war in this country
While the Japanese are great
hghters and are holding their
ground in Manchuria, the fnct is
apparant that the Russian bear
has donned his 'fighting clothes
and is putting up an article OF
war now that commands no little
respect and admiration.
The Russian fleet which was
generally believed to have been
crippled beyond efficiency by Ad-
miral Togo's fighting ships, has
developed into a gigantic fighting
machine and its work of destruc-
tion and aggressiveness is report
ed from various sources within
and without belligerant waters.
It has seized German and British
ships supposed to be carrying war
goods to the Japanese and on this
account complications in the war
are now more imminent than they
have ever been. The lions tail
has been twisted, and the agrees
siveness of the Russian bear has
put stop to all talk of mediation
and general European war
seems to be one of the probabil-
ties of the approaching future.
