West Augusta. Mar. 14.-Thinkin
perhaps the readers OF your valuabl
paper would like to hear from thi
section OF Augusta county, l will try
to pen you few items.
The weather recently has been rathe
lnclement, raining and sleeting witt
much regularity. In fact we have ha(
but little nice weather since the frs
OF March. consequently there is moth
ing doing in the way of farming.
Mr.. Ralph Mellor on last Saturday
week had the pleasure of a visit from
bis parents who reside in Philadelphia
While here they drove across Shenan.
doah and Shaw's Ridge and were de.
lighted with the grand scenery. They
returned home last Wednesday.
We have had considerable sickness
in our community during the winter
grippe and pneumonia seem to be the
prevailing troubles. One of Samuel
McManaway's little boys had an at
tack OF appendicitis short time ago,
but DR.. Marshall Jones of Church

self denial, saved up some dimes and
nlckels and have been congratulating
myself as to the nice time L was going

vast wealth. But alas. Mr.. Editor,
you have blasted my hoses, by saying
the railroads have it in for US, and are
going to do us. suppose l will have
to stay at home, Or start now and walk.
l think they ought to take all the old
Confederate soldiers to the exposition
at half price any way.
Your correspondent from Waynes-
bOro seems to think that the public
schools of the rural districts should
share in the donations Mr. Rockefeller
is making to educational institutions.
For my part l am glad they will not.
Among other things l would like to
see the rising generatio n taught to
believe in old fashioned honesty, and
to scorn any gift of money which has
been acquired under the questionable
methods used by MIR. Rockefeller. The
Southern Methodist church accepted
million dollars from Commodore Van
derbilt, with which they erected col
lege that bears bis name, and in this [
believe they did wrong. That million
can never compensate the church for
what she may loose in compromising
principle. MOZART.

deep-seated and the patient finally
awakens to the fact that she has we'll
developed case of catarrh.
By reason of their delicate structure
the lungs are frequently the seat of a
cold, especially if there is the slightest
weakness of these organs. The treat
ment of catarrh of the lungs is also
more difficult and discouraging than
catarrh of any other organ of the body.
1t would be wise, therefore, to guard

Peruna has been found most reliable

ficient for the cereal part of a meal
and experience demonstrates that the

meal to another
Il am convinced that the extensive

this character would increase the term
of human life, add to the sum total of
happiness and very considerably i'm

mention the food, for I personally

Grape-Nuts food can be used by
babes in arms, or adults. 1t is ready
cooked. can be served instantly, eth
er cold with cream, or with hot water
or hot milk poured over. All sorts of
buildings and fancy dishes can be
made with Grape-Nuts. The food is
concentrated and very economical, for
