STORY OF NUMBER 40

40 years ago an old doctor was
putting up 4 medicine for disease OF
the blood, that cured the worst cases
of specific blood poison, and time
proved that the cures were perma-
nent. After many years 1 secured
the prescription (being druggist)
and took each ingredient separately
and referred to my U. S. DISPENSE
tory and other authoritative books
on medicine and found the medical
properties set down IS follows: EN-
ployed in diseases of the glandular
system, III blood poison, scrofula,
constipation, stomach and liver trou-
blcs, chronic rheumatism, catarrh, in
sores, ulcers, skin eruptions, MGR
curial and Iced poisoning. Under its
use nodes, tumors end scrofulous
swellings that have withstood all
other treatment disappear as if by
magic" To commemorate my fortieth
year as druggist l named this medi-
cine Number 40 For The Blood. "

For Trustee.

Mr.. Dorrel Harris is q candidate
for Trustee of Obion County, subject
to the action of the Democratic party
and asks The Commercial to present
his name to the readers of the paper
for their consideration. Mr.. Harris
is a native citizen of the county, a
farmer, an honorable christian gen
tleman, a man of public spirit and
one who commands the esteem of his
neighbors and friends.
Mr.. Harris offered to make the
race two years ago on a platform,
which provided for transferring a
division of the fees of the office back
to the county treasury, but no spe-
cific arrangement being made by law
for this purpose, he withdrew 1T, and
but for that reason would make the
same offer again in this race. He is
therefore committed to policy OF
fee reform in county offices, and
such a reform. This, however, is a
matter for the Legislature, but Mr..
Harris desires the people of the coun-
ty to know how he stands on the
question. He makes the race with
the understanding that this reform
should be made, and does not seek
the office alone for the present splen-
did remuneration that accrues to the
Trustee for his services.
Mr.. Harris is a man of splendid
character and qualifications, very
high order of personal honor and in
tegrity. He would appreciate your
vote and influence, with pledges If
elected to protect the county funds
and the interests of tho taxpayer and
citizen. We are pleased to offer his
announcement.

Special High School.

In the absence Of a general agree
mont some years ago iii respect to
county high schools Number Six was
one of the districts which sought to
replace this system with a taxing
district of her own, and bill was
introduced and enacted by the Legs
lature effecting an organization OF
the civil district into taxing dis
trict for a special high school in
Troy. In another column of the paper
a portion of this act is printed. Since
that time there has been some OBJ
lection. To what extent this Objec-
ton is made and upon what grounds
we are not prepared to state. But il
was finally decided that the matter
should be referred to the voters for
approval or rejection. Accordingly
an act by the present Legislature
was passed calling for en- election OF
the qualified voters in Number Six
to decide the matter.
The election has, ao all school
elections usually are, become a spirit
ed contest, there being many good
citizens on both sides of the ques-
ton, and this week tho friends of
the Special High School are offering
to the readers of the paper a list of
persons who arc favoring the con-
tinuance and maintenance of the
school under the present charter.

good shape that l have a fine appe-
tite and l cen eat anything that's
set before me.
81 don't find it hard to get up
mornings now, c1Lncr. set UP early;
enjoy a big breakfast of pork chops
and eggs and then feel equal to the
task of supervising the work in my
thirty-room hotel.
Recommend Meritone because l
know it has done me good and I be-
lievc in it,"
Meritono is the new tonic of real
merit 1t is recommended for any

to combat catarrhal complaints or
