Atlanta, which is usually candidate
for everything like southern headquar-

Regarding Candidates for President

1.-THE statement of Judge n. B. Feagin
in the public prints that no United States
senator had ever won the Presidents Of
flee, needs qualifying, relatively said
Percy Clark.
president Benjamin Harrison, who was
retired from the Senate in 1887, was nomi-
mated and elected President in 1888. He
was one of the ablest advocates of pro-
tective tariff while in the Senate. Prior
to his occupancy of the Presidents Of
flee, he had been instrumental in bring
ing about the nomination of James A
Garfield senator-elect, as a compromise
candidate, who was elected President in
1880.
Henry Clay was three times a candi-
date for the presidency and as often de-
efated.
'Since the war, the most notable sena-
torial candidate for the presidency who
tried the electorate and failed, was James
G. Blaine.
John sherman vainly tried for the re-
publican nomination at two con-
ventions. David b. Hill also failed OF
nomination by the democrats, as did
Charles NJ. Fairbanks for the republican
nomination.
william Mckinley won his nomination
as chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee In 1895.
"Blaine was the only ex-speaker of the
House of Representatives who won a
nomination. Thomas B. Reed, Samuel j.
Randall and Champ Clark are notable
presiding officers who failed to secure the
honors OF a presidential nomination, al
though avowed candidates.
"The Senate has been political abbey;
who enters leaves further ambition be-
hind
"Of. the ex-Presidents, John Quincy
Adams returned to the House of Repre-
sentatives, and died member Of it. An
drew Johnson was senator after his
presidential term; Tyler was member of
the Confederate Congress, and died in
office"

How to Use Peruna
 for Coughs and Colds

If Peruna were used at the begin ming of every cold, coughs would gen orally be prevented.
 After the cough begins Peruna will generally stop it just as quickly as it ought to be stopped. To stop cough before all of the expectoration has been removed is to do great injury. After the expectoration has been properly removed the cough will stop itself That is the only proper way to stop cough.
 Occasionally a cough depends upon an irritable condition of the iarynx or bronchial tubes. in which there is little or no expectoration.
 The problem of stopping such q cough is a slightly different one. Even in those cases Peruna ought to be taken, but sometimes it is neces- sary that local treatment be added.
 Every one who has a troublesome cough or a lingering cold should write the Peruna Company. Columbus, Ohio, for a free copy of the Ills of Life" There is no free pamphlet dis tributed to-day of more real value to the sick and afflicted than the new Ills of Life" It is filled from cover to cover with actual cases of cough, colds and other climatic diseases in all stages and complications. You could scarcely fail to find your case exactly described in this book.
 To neglect to do everything possible to get rid of a stubborn cold or chronic cough is very unwise indeed. Peruna has enjoyed a great reputa- tion as a remedy in such cases for thirty or forty years. As rule. 2 person who uses one bottle of 1t is always afterwards an enthusiastic advocate of Peruna. Peruna itself is means of selling more Peruna than all advertisements put together.

has been in charge of the advertising

bureau Of the international Harvester
Company and has broadened the scope
of this work until it has become rec
ognized as a substantial factor in
the development of agricultural edu-
cation and betterment, not only in
the United States, but all over the
world.
Mr.. Owings was one of the first men
in the implement business to recog-
nize the fact that the making and
selling of farm machines is more than
a business enterprise, because of its
vital connection with the food supply
Of the world, and has been largely
instrumental in enlisting the great
resources of the Harvester Company
in the encouragement of improved
methods in agriculture.
In his new position as vice-presi
dent of the Rumely Company, Mr..
Owings will bring to his work an
accumulated experience as an organ
izer on a large scale, as a trained
advertiser, and as credit and collee-
ton man of long and successful ex
perience. His training in all depart
ments of the implement business will
be of especial benefit in his new field.

Corn Knives That Cut.

There is minimum effort put forth
on your part when cutting corn or
cane if you are the owner of a Keen
Kutter corn or cane knife. These
knives, with their heavy, razor-edged
steel blades, cut down the heaviest
stand of corn or cane with an easy
no hacking away, using up all your
strength and energy but one sturdy
stroke getting you best results.
Same way with hay knives, too.
No matter how tight the hay is pack
ed, you can cut through it in a jiffy
with a Keen Kutter hay knife.
The handles are strong and shaped
to ensure a perfect grip, and they
hold the blades with the frmness Of a
wise.
Keen Kutter corn, cane and hay
knives are the best of their kind.
They must be, for the Simmons Hard
ware Co., gives a standing, unquali
fed guarantee that unless they be
absolutely satisfactory to you, your
dealer is authorized, or, should you
want it, your money refunded.
