L.IgGSt Animal On Earth.

Sparks World Famous Shows
az hllled to exhibit at Lexington
Saturday, Sept. 10. and from the
newspaper repoIts preceding them
their exhibition will be worth 60
ing many miles to witness.
Among the many features the
show carries is what is claimed to
be the largest land animal on
earth. It is an elephans said to
be three il Q les taller than Jumbo
and a half ton heavier.
Some idea of her immense size
can be obtail.sd when you consi.
der that shs is II feet. z inches
tall and weighs over s tons. In
other words she weighs as much
as ten ordinary horses.
Another extraordinary feature
with the show is Capt. Wesley's
troupe of educated Seals and Sea
Lions. These interesting sea ami.
mails perform the most seemingly
impossible feass balancing chairs,
umbrellas and whirling brands of
fire while climbing ladders, walk.
ing tight ropes and riding the
backs of g%a'toplng horses. This
feature taft description and
must be sect to be appr> ciatsd.
Many other wonderful things
are to be ssen with this mammoth
show, and the main performance
beneath the big tents will present
g. humber of the most marvellous
foreign acts of the century.
The menageris of wild animals

In every detail, and contains rare
and curious specimens of the

A mile long street parade of
dazzling splendor. bea utiful wo.

CLERGYMAN'S STORY
Came Near Losing His Life--How He Escaped

We quote from another letter, dated
December 10, 1906: II praise Peruna
to all the sick. The people know
case, and they praise it ALSO"
In a letter dated November %,
1909, we quote Rev. Roberts: "Pe-
I'LL gave me back my life ten
years ago. All my acquaintances
know that. I am certainly thankful
TO you for your kindness"
In a later letter, dated January 13,
1910, he says: Il shall eve in the
future, as in the past, be ready to
speak in praise of Peruna to all suf-
ferers. I believe my miraculous cure
has been the means of many others
being cured in this county"
From a letter of September S, 1911,
we quote a few words: II am still
among the living. AS to Peruna, I
do not feel that I have words to ex-
press the faith I have in it's merits.
I feel that Peruna has been the
means, through the kind providence
Of God, of prolonging my life for
more than ten years."
We quote a still later letter, October
81, 1912. He says: Il took a severe
cold three weeks ago. I at once sent
for Peruna. Have been taking it two
weeks. I am now better. I consider
that Peruna has carried me over a
dozen years Of life. I always stand
ready to answer any question in ref
erence to Peruna."
We quote from his last letter, dated
January 2, 1918: Dear Friends: I
wish this bright New Years to ex-
press my thanks to you for your
kindness. Trusting that you may
have a successful and happy year, and
that your medicine may prove a
blessing to many as it has to me, I
am yours as ever, G. W. Roberts.
Hartsell. Alabama, r. F. D. 2. Box
a."
It Is not necessary for us to add
any words to this story. The elo-
quence and pathos of these letters
are more convincing than arguments
or af1davits. Who can doubt the
clergyman's story? Who can doubt
that Peruna saved his life?

suffering. I had tried the treatments
Of several doctors, also home rem
edies, but they failed and all hope
had gone. My friends, like myself,
thought I was in the last stages Of
consumption.
my daughter brought me a bottle
of Peruna and plead with me to try
1t. I had got so weak I had lost my
voice, and I thought it no use. That
was in May, 1902. I began to take
1t, according to directions. T wrote
to you, and you gave me your kind
advice.
IT soon felt better, my cough began
to give way, and the e-xpectoration
lessened. I have taken fourteen bot
ties. I feel well, eat hearty, sleep
soundly, weigh as much as I w did,
do considerable work on my farm,
and attend to my other business.
My friends eem astonished at my re-
covery.
II wish to thank you for your kind
advice and the books you have sent
me. ! shall " praise your medicine
and hope that you ma enjoy a long
life"
It will be observed that Rev. Rob-
erts waited two years after he began
to use Peruna, before he wrote the
above letter to The Peruna Co. So
that his apparent recovery could not
possibly have been temporary relief.
In a later letter to The Peruna Co.,
dated September %, 1906, Rev. Rob-
erts says: II am a great friend of
Peruna. BY the use of DR.. Hartrnan's
advice I am here to-day, able to be
with my family and attend to my
business"
