so wei in five years, having walked

have also gained thirty pounds since
commencing to take Peruna. In fact,
cannot praise it too highly. Mrs.

Peruna never fails to prevent systemic
catarrh or nervous prostration if taken
in time. Peruna is the most prompt and
permanent cure for all cases of nervous
prostration caused by systemic catarrh
known to the medical profession.
II you do not derive prompt and satis-

Spared the Hi.torfan

: On one occasion during Mommsen's
residence in Italy, when making an ex-
cursion in the neighborhood of Rome
with some tourists, the party was stop
ped by brigands. The latter, while
busy rifing the company's pockets, in
quired their names. "Sono Theodor
Mommsen," was the choleric profess
or's indignant reply, whereupon the
chief of the band stayed his hand. He
said he would scorn to rob one who had
done SO much for Italys renown.

Attention
Farmers.

Why remain in the North
and stay in doors six months
in the year consuming what
you raise during the other
six months?
Go south where you can
work out doors every month
In the year, and where you
are producing something the
year round. If you are a
stock raiser you know your
stock are now eating their
heads off" and, besides, have
to be protected from the RI
gors of winter by expensive
shelter.
Economical stock feeding
requires the combination Of
both flesh forming and fat
forming foods in certain pro.
portions. Alabama and
Florida produce in abundance
the velvet bean and cassava,
the first a flesh producer, and
they are the cheapest and
best fatening materials
known to the world.
More money can be made
and with less labor, in gener-
al farming, fruit and berry
growing and truck garden
ing along our road in the
South than in any other
section of the Union.

desires further information

Consumption

The only kind Of consump.
ton to fear is neglected
consumption.
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease,
1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle Of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands Of
cases, turned the balance in
favor Of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul.
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it

at times rise on the slopes of the noun

Root Declines Nominate n p

Esopus, n. Y, Aug. 25-Rosemont
has heard what purports to be a well
subsiantiated story of Elihu Roots
final declination of the republican gu
bernatorial nomination in New York
State. Howard Taylor, one of the
founders of the Parker Constitutional
Club, who was Judge Parker's guest
yesterday, brought the report with him
from New York, and it is understood
that it is Mr.. Roots version and it was
told by him to mutual friend only a
day or two ago. According to this
story, Mr.. Root held a conference with
President Roosevelt recently, during the
course of which the executive vigorously
urged his former Secretary of War
to accept the proffered nomination. Mr..
Root heard his former chief to the end.
Then he said: "Mr. President, Iwould
like the republican nomination for Gov.
ernor of New York State upon one con
dition, that you guarantee to leave thu
field open to me, equally with others o
the presidential nomination in 1905

is reported to have replied. "Then,

SITUATION IN THE EAST.

From the rather meager details that
come from the struggle around Port Ar
thur it seems that the japanese continue
to lombard the place, and gradually but
surely are tightening their grip, in spite
of repulses and heavy losses. According
to a Cheloo dispatch, they have driven
the Russians from the parade ground,
which is only two miles north of the har-
bor. As has been stated. The Chinese
Foreign Office extended the time limit
for the Russian vessels Askoldand Groz-
ovoi TO leave the harbor of Shanghai to
noon August %.
A dispatch from Shanghai says an
order from the Car having been convey
ed to Admiral Reitzenstein, command
ing him to forthwith disarm the AskoId
and Grozovoi, the flags on both vessels
have been lowered. This will be done
primarily to avoid International compll-
cations and will have the effect of reduc-
ing the Russian strength by thres strong
units. but the Russian authorities con-
slider that this will be offset 10y the avoid
ance of the CAPTURE of the vessels
named by the japanese. AdTices re-
ceived at Shanghai from Saigon show,
contrary to previous announcements,
that the Diana is in bad condition
She has one large hull in her below the
water line. Her injuries will take weeks
to repair.

TO spend his summers. While at Ac-
cord Judge Parker made it his annual
custom to attend the ElIenville fair. He
has not missed one in many years, and
does not intend to let his plans interfere

Parker's cattle exhibitions have won
him many prizes at this fair, particularly

year the nominee has decided not to
enter any stock, largely on account OF
the notoriety such action might bring.
