Dr. Griffith For Mayor.
Dr. Lewie A. Griffith, of Columbia,
a lormer resident of thi9 county and a
son of that grand old man, Col, D. J.
Griffith, superintendent of the State
penitentiary, is an avowed candidate
tor Mayor of the city of Columbia.
Dr. Griffith's candidacy is already the
talk of the city, and hi9 friends on this
side of the river, feel confident of his
election. Dr. Griffith is a young man
with progressive ideas and sound business
judgment, just such a man in our
opinion as would make an ideal mayor
for the progressive capital of the State.
Here s hoping that he will win.

Paint Now.
If your property needs it; don't
wait.
There are two narts of a iob: the
paiut and the work; the work is more
than the paint.
The cost of paint is about two-fifths;
the work three-fifths.
Paint won't come-down in a hurry;
too many jobs put-off.
Men are waiting for $2 or $3; they ,
don't know it; tney think they are
waiting for $20 or $26.
Why don't men use their heads.

He says: "I take i |&v-- pleasure

: of several doctors, also home remedies,

My friends seem astonished at my recovery.

1 It will be observed that Rev. Roberts
waited two years after lie began
to use Peruna, before he wrote the
s above letter to The Peruha Co. So
that his apparent recdyery could not
possibly have been temporary relief.
In a later letter to The Peruna Co., 1
dated September 22, 1906V Rev. Roberts
says: 'T am a great friend pf

iN'S STORY
Life-How He Escaped
We quote from another letter, dated
December 10, 1906: "I praise Peruna
to all the sick. The people know
my case, and they praise it also."
In a letter dated November 22,
1909, we quote Rev. Roberts: "Peruna
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: "I shall ever in the
future, as in the past, be ready to
speak in praise of Peruna to all sufferers.
I believe my miraculous cure
has oeen ine means 01 many umaa
being cured in this county."
From a letter of September 5, 191b
we quote a few words: "I am still
among the living. As to Peruna, I
do not feel that I have words to express
the faith I have in its 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
31, 1912. He says: "I 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 reference
to Peruna."
We quote from his last letter, dated
January 2, 1913: "Dear Friends: I
wish this bright New Years to express
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,
