HAD CHRONIC BRONCHITIS
FOR TWENTY SIX YEARS
NOW WELL AND HAPPY
THIS IS WORTH READING

The experience Of Mr.. r. j. Tou-
galik, 1438 Rose street, Lacrosse,
Wisconsin, Is chiefly remarkable
on account Of the length Of time
he was afflicted.
He writes: "I have been suf-
fering with chronic bronchitis for
twenty-six years and every winter
I would catch cold and become so
hoarse I could not speak for six or
eight weeks. I could get only tenn
porary relief.
"This winter was taken with
Grip and was in awful shape. A
fellow workman advised me to take
PE-RU-NA. By the time I had
used three-fourths Of a bottle, the
hoarseness was gone, also that
tired feeling. I am on my second
bottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA will
be constantly in my house. It is
the best medicine ever put up for
the purpose"
For any disease due to catarrh
or catarrhal conditions, PE-RU-NA
is equally dependable. Coughs,
colds, catarrh Of the head, stomach
trouble, constipation, rheumatism,
pains in the back, side and loins,
bloating, belching gas, indigestion,
catarrh Of the large and small in
testines, are some Of the troubles
Tor which PE-RU-NA is especially
recommended.
PE-RU-NA can be purchased
anywhere in either tablet or liquid
form.

McIAAURIN SPEAKS AGAIN.
Condemns Opponents Of League Of
NatiOns--Stand for Rights.

-~----------@
At Yorkville, OH October 8, Sena-
tor John l.. McLaurin spoke in part
as follows:
There Is no product that will be
more affected by world conditions
growing out Of the war than cotton.
Therefore | wish to call attention
to some OF them before referring TO
local matters. The United States
has come out Of the war not only
the richest nation on earth, but the
richest which has ever existed. The
other nations Of tho world owe this
government 10 billions Of dollars,
for which we hold their bonds. The
European governments, in addition
to this, owe vast sums to American
CAPITALISTS, like the loans made by
American banks to England and
France before our entry into the
war. Paris. London and other Eu-
ropean cities have sold their bonds
or short term notes at heavy dis
counts to investors all over the
United States. In addition to this
we have taken up and now own the
three billions Of dollars Of American
securities held by Europe prior to
the war. imagine that all Of these
items are sufficient Cir paid) to can
Gel the national debt of the United
States. The bonded indebtedness
Of the United States Is held by the
people of the United States. There
is no other nation in the world in
this situation, and | do not think
you can find parallel for 1T in all
history. Great Britain comes out
Of the war with the flower Of her
young men disabled or dead, and
with a bonded debt which is nearly
SO per cent Of her estimated nation
al wealth. France has lost q genera
ton Of her young men and Is bur-
dened with a national debt which is
nearly 60 per cent OF the value Of
all the property in France. Italy,
Germany and the other countries Of
Europe are in Il still worse condi-
ton. The war hardly touched the
young manhood Of the United States
and our national wealth has enor-
mOusly increased. If you ask me
why the angel Of death passed us
by, | would say that 1T was because
God intended to preserve our
strength that we might use the
wealth and manhood Of America in
rebuilding civilization and redeem
ing mankind.
The horror and wastage OF war
has taken the heart out Of Europe.
There Is to-day hardly stable
government In Europe; there Is a
relapse to actual barbarism in Rus
sia. In England the life Of the
government is threatened by the
Irish question and strikes, which.
unless checked, will bring on a
revolution. You can SEQ how 1t
began in Russia, Austria, Poland and
hungary. The world Is struggling
to get on It's feet from monu-
mental disaster. Europe Is too weak
and exhausted to do so without help.

OCoNEE TELEPHONE COMPANY
Changes Hands; Better Service and
Lower Rates Assured.

At a recent meeting Of the Town
Council, an ordinance was passed
permitting the Southern Bell Tele-
phone Company to take over the ell
tire property Of the Oconee Tele-
phone Company.
They also signed up contract
with the Bell Company fixing rates,
etc. The representatives of the Bell
people stated they would make i'm
provements in the equipment and
service just as rapidly as possible,
beginning just as soon as the con-
tract Is approved by the State Rail
road Commission.
The following is the scale Of rates
that will be charged per month for
service:
Business, l party, fiat rate. $500
Business, 2 party, fiat rate :. $50
Business, party, fiat rate -. 400
Residence, / party, fiat rate 400
Residence, 2 party, fiat rate 1.50
residence, party, fiat rate :. 1.25
But business, and residence four
party lines are AVAILABLE only out
side the exchange rmse rate area.
that Is outside Of n radius OF one
mile from the central station.
Petitions for those who desire to
subscribe will be circulated in the
next few days, so be ready to act
when 1t is presented to you
We are assured Of service by the
new company, and we feel sure we
will get 1t. The free service out
side the local exchange will be cut
out. If a subscriber wishes to talk
to Seneca or any other point out
side of Walhalla, the regular mile
age charge will be made. This will
probably leave the line open for
the transaction Of business and will
be great relief to the operators.

BLUE RIBBONS
 TRIM JERSEY FIVE
Local Team Has Yet to Lose a Game - Whole Team
 Plays Wonderful Game.

In very fast and interesting game of basketball in which spec tacu1ar shots were made at every oth- CT minute the Blue Ribbons of this city, defeated the New Brunswick five of Jersey last night at Colonial hall, by the score of 5S to 34.
 Every man on the local team with the exception of Ripley was true to form and many times they brought crowd present for some kind of a fancy shot.
 Beckman was the star for the New Brunswicks and was all over the floor. He tried any kind of a shot long or short, and there were very few that he missed.
 When the first half started it look ed as if it would be an even game but after about ten minutes of play 1t could easily be seen that the Rib bons were the cheese.
 Chris, Leonard, former Blue Ribbon player and who Is now playing with the new Brunswick quintet was un- able to appear and Schwartz took his place.
 The game was refereed by Tom Thorpe in his usually efficient man. ner and between the halves he an nounced that Manager Leavy had se- cured the Nationals of New York for the game that will be held on next Tuesday evening.

HEyDLER TO HEAR
 CHASE CASE SOON

New York, Jan. 2e-John A Heyd- Ter, president of the National League. announced yesterday that he will hear the case against Harold Chase, first baseman of the Cincinnati team, on Jan. 30, Instead of today, upon the request of Chase's attorney.
 Chase was suspended indefinitely by Manager Mathewson of Cincinnati last August while the Reds were play ing in New York. Mathewson made grave charges against Chase at the time, adding that he did not see how it would be possible for Chase to play big league ball under the circum- stances.
 John McGraw, manager Of the New York Nationals, and William Perritt. a Giant pitcher, have been requested to attend the hearing as witnesses for the Cincinnati club. Manager Ma thewson, who filed the original charges, is still in France, where he is serving as captain in the chemical warfare service.
 Since the closing of the 1918 base ball season, Chase started civil suit against the Cincinnati club for the amount of salary he lost by reason of his suspension.

final instructions by Referee Tim Hurst the men started to box.
 The battle was hurricane affair both men standing together in the center of the ring slugging away. There were five knockdowns in the first round. Simonds landed two of these while Kearns knocked Simonds down three times. It was a great battle and fast one for big men which greatly pleased the spectators.
 As they came to the center of the ring for the second round Kearns was bit anxious while Simonds seemed little timid. Kearns walked right in and hit Simonds right and left to body and head staggering him all around the ring. Kearns was just about to put the finishing touches to the job when Tim Hurst stopped the contest to save Simonds from a sure knockout.
 The fighters hurried and dressed themselves so as to make the last train for New York as they only had a few moments to spare. Coming home on the train Hurst slipped me $50 for Kearns' trouble. He asked me if that was satisfactory and l told him anything he said as I was trying to make this man a wonderful fighter. times that much for the contract on timese that uh fmor the contract on Kearns for three years, as he said T will make him the heavyweight champion of the world"
 We arrived in New York all in good spirits. Kearns and I left the crowd there and went to Brooklyn. When we reached Brooklyn I told Kearns about Hursts proposition.

 In Pittston we were met by MT. Clark, who was financing the fight. This MT. Clark took up boxing as 8 hobby and there was no admission charged to the fights. but they were run by invitation. MT. Clark was a big brewer and had plenty of money.
 We then went to the hotel and had a light lunch. We then went for a ride in this MT. Clark's auto and took in all the sights. Time passed quickly and as Kearns and Simonds came back we did not know them, as their faces were black with soot.
 After washing up we hurried around to the clubhouse as there was only one prelim to the big fight.
 When the men climbed into the ring Simonds looked every bit as big and heavy as, the Soldier boy. After

 Kearns and I then left the club house and we parted as we got out side. I then told Kearns to meet me in front of his house the next Friday morning at o'clock, as he was to fight in Pittston that night.
 The next day all the Brooklyn papers gave Kearns big headlines and talked about bringing the heavy weight championship back to Brook 1yn. The next Friday morning we again met Kearns and hiked over to the St. Bartholomew hotel and met Tim Hurst.
 The three of us then took the Hud- son tube to Jersey got on train and
