A Good Sign.
According to Master H. L. O’Bannon
there are fewer land tales to be adver
tised this fall than at any time since he
has been in office—thirteen years.
This is indeed a good sign of the pros
perity of the county as a whole and
augura well for the future. “There’s
life in the old land yet,” and not much
place for “calamity howlers.”
The People will give one dollar each
to the first ten merchants in Barnwell
who believe in advertising. The only
provision required is that the applicants
contract with as for 500 inches of space
to be used within a year. Don’t every,
body speak at once and if you find the
office crowded kindly leave your name
and address and your application will
be given due attention.

You owe him a big debt—no other
friend has done quite so much for you.
He’s rid you of all petty scruples of
honesty and purity, in fact, he has made
a new man out of you—the eye that
once gleamed and sparkled is now
belared and dull; the cheeks once so
healthy and tinged with the ruddy hue
of young manhood is bloated and seared
with dissipation; the hand that once
guided the pen so smoothly and delicate

hazy conclusions slowly, and gropes in
darkness among the simplest problems.

Pomeroyton, Ky.—In interesting ad
vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes
writes as follows: "I was down with
stomach trouble for five (5) years, and
would have sick headache so bad, at
times, that 1 thought surely 1 would die.
I tried different treatments, but they
did not seem to do me any good.
I got so bad, I could not eat or sleep,
and all my friends, except one, thought 1
would die. He advised me to try
Tbedford’s Black-Draught, and quit
taking other medicines. I decided tt>
take his advice, although I did not have
any confidence in it
I have now been taking Black-Draught
for three months, and It has cured me—
haven’t had those awful sick headaches
since I beptn using it
I am so thankful for what Black-
Draught has done for me.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
found a very valuable medicine for de
rangements of the stomach and fiver. It
is composed of pure, vegetable herbs,
contains no dangerous ingredients, and
acts gently, yet surely. It can be freely
used by young and old, and should be
kept in every family chest
