No remedy ever yet discovered has rfiet with such
popular favor as S. S. S. The people everywhere indorse it,
and there are few homes where S. S. S. for the blood is
not known and used. It is superior in many ways to the ordi
nary blood medicines. In the first place S. S. S. is a guaranteed
purely vegetable compound, made exclusively of medicinal roots
selected for their wonderful purifying and tonic properties that act
upon the blood, purging it of impurities and restoring it to a healthy,
natural condition. At the same time, under its tonic effects the gen
eral system improves, the sluggish organs are toned up, and renewed
strength and vigor and better health is the result. No bad after-effects
follow the use of S. S. S., as so often happens with blood medicines
i containing strong minerals, which derange the stomach and digestion
< and in other ways damage the system. For diseases of the blood,
l/ such as Chronic Sores, Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Boils and Pirn-
f always KEEPS s. s. s. on hand. P' 06 ’, ® c ? e m Tetter,
Blood Poisons, and other
troubles due to impure or
bad condition of the blood,
no remedy acts so promptly
and thoroughly as S. S. S.
It reaches deep-seated,
long-standing cases, upon
which the ordinary potash
and sarsaparilla compounds
have no effect. Even where
there is an hereditary
predisposition to disease,
S. S. S will search out and remove from the blood the fixed poison and
build up the health; it enriches and purifies weak, thin blood and stim
ulates the circulation. Pure blood is essential to health. You can
exist without good blood, but can never be robust and strong; for every
jorgan, tissue and nerve in the body looks to the blood for nourishment,
and unless this vital fluid is kept in a pure, healthy state, the rest of
the body suffers and the system soon breaks down. Nature has pro
vided in S. S. S. a remedy for diseases of the blood which long
experience and a thorough test have proven superior to all others, and
the acknowledged “ King of Blood Purifiers.”

Monticello, Ark., May 21,1903.
Gentlamen:—For aoout twelve years I have
been using 1 your S. S. S. as a household remedy.
I have taken it as a tonic and appetiser, and be
lieve there is none better. I have used it for my
children at various times for little skin eruptions,
boils and poisons caused by playing: with weeds.
'8. S. S. is my standard, never mind what is the
matter. If I use a bottle ot S. S. S. it tones up the
•ystem, cleanses the blood and makes me well
Again. As an all-round family medicine I consider
B. 8. S. the best remedy of the kind that have I
ever used, and generally keep it on hand as a fam
ily remedy. MRS. V. C. WHITTINGTON.

GEORGIA JUDGE
WAS ALARMINGLY AFFLICTED WITH CATARRH OF THE LUNGS.
CURED BY PE-RU-NA.

JUDGE DURHAM, OP GREENSBORO, GEORGIA.
Catarrh of the Lungs
the First Stage* of
Consumption.
So All Medical
Authorities Agree.
Judge Durham, a well-known local
Jndgoof Greensboro, Ga., had an expe
rience with Peruna well worth reciting.
A report had become current among the
Judge’s friends that ho was threatened
With consumption. It was feared for a
time that Georgia was to lose one of its
most prominent and influential citizens.
It was also reported that the judge
had failed to pet any relief from any of
tho medical aid at his command, that he
had made use of tho now world famous
remedy, Peruna, and made a prompt re
covery. The affair created quite a sensa
tion in medical circles especially, and
tho many friends of Judge Durham were
notonly exceedingly gratified at his re
covery, but were enthusiastic in their
praises of tho remedy that had brought
him relief.
Tho following written statement from
the judge himself set forth the facts:
Greensboro, Ga., March 3, 1900.
“ Some time ago I contracted a severe
cold which settled on my lungs and In
my head. / tried many remedies, all
of which gave me no relief. I con
cluded that my case was catarrh of the
head and lungs, and seeing Peruna so
highly recommended 1 began using It,
experiencing the very best results from
the first bottle.
/\ i Hi I Tn H"
r HTT
“/ continued using Peruna for a
short while, and have never felt the
least symptoms of catarrh since. Pe
runa Is certainly a good medicine, ana
deserves the highest praise which Is
given it by the general public. ”
Judge Durham has been Secretary and
Treasurer of the city of Greensboro, Ga.,
for the past three years, and has been a
local judge for ten years.
Dread Consumption.
There are three roads which lead from
health to consumption. Over one of
these roads pass all of that great multi
tude of people who die every year of
consumption. EacU route begins with
health and happiness and ends with dis
ease and death.
First road: a slight cold—neglected—
settles in tho head or throat—chronic
catarrh—extends to the lungs—consump
tion—death.
Second road: a slight cold—neglected
cough—settles in the lungs—cough grad
ually growing worse—consumption —
death.
Third road: a cold—neglected—settler
in the throat—hoarseness—short breath
—consumption—death.
Thousands have just started on one of
these roads, all of whom could be easily
cured by Peruna. Thousands more are
half way to the fatal end of one of these
roads who are still curable by a course
of treatment by Peruna. Yet other
thousands are near the end whose last
days could be made bearable and hope
of recovery more probable by commenc
ing Peruna without delay.
A reward of $10,000 has been deposited in the Market Exchange Bank, Colum
bus, Ohio, as a guarantee that the above testimonial is genuine ; that we hold
in our possession authentic letters certifying to the same. Every one of our tes
timonials are genuine and in the words of the one whose name is appended.
Freight Train Jumped the Track.
Yesterday as a freight train en
tered the city, a box car loaded with
: fertilizer jumped the track between
Buford and Meadow streets and tore
up the track and crossties for several
hundred feet and wrenched one of
the trucks from under the car. Aside
from the derailed car and the damage
to the track little loss was sustained.
Trains were not delayed any consid-
5 enable time.
Lawton Alexander Dead.
Lawton Alexander, a son of Mr.
Summie Alexander, of Love Springs,
died at the home of his father on
Monday the 21st inst, at 11 o’clock.
Lawton was a bright and promis
ing young man, about nineteen years
of age, and was night operator for
the Southern at Blacksburg at the
time he was taken sick.
The remains were interred in the
cemetery at Shelby, N. C\, Tuesday.
A Card of Thanks.
We desire ta publicly tender our
sincere and heartfelt thanks to the
many friends who showed us such
unremitting kindness during our re
cent heavy bereavement, for their
valuable assistance during the last
illness of the dear one now gone, and
for their many expressions of sym
pathy ami condolence for us in our
great sorrow.
