Iiaft i l»- vl\' /* I i* ‘ 'y • *; ' » ■ PERUNA EDITORIAL NO. 2. DRAYTONVILLE DOTS. Interesting by ./ Dr. Hartman has claimed for many years that Peruna is an EXCELLENT CATARRH REMEDY Some of the doctor’s critics have diluted the doctor’s Maim as to the efficacy of Peruna. Since the ingredients of Peruna are no longer a secret, what do the medi- eal authorities say concerning the remedies of which Peruna is composed? Take, for instance, the ingredient HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS, OR GOLDEN SEAL. The United States Dispensatory says of this herbal remedy, that it is largely employed in the treatment of depraved mucous membranes, chron^ rhinitis (nasal catarrh), atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), chronic intestinal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice (catarrh of the liver), and in diseased mucous membranes of the pelvic organs. It is also recommended for the treatment of various forms of diseases peculiar to women. Another ingredient of Peruna, CORYDALIS FORMOSA, is classed in the United States Dispensatory as a tonic. CEDRON SEEDS is another ingredient of Peruna, an excellent drug that hm been very largely overlooked by the medical profession for the past fifty years. THE SEEDS ART. TO BE FOUND IN VERY FEW DRUG STORES. The United States Dispensatory says of the action of cedron that it is used as a bitter tonic and in the treatment of dysentery, and in intermittent diseases as a SUBSTITUTE FOR QUININE. OIL OF COPAIBA, another ingredient of Peruna, is classed by the United States Dispensatory as a mild stimulant and diuretic. It acts or. the stomach and intestinal tract. It acts as a stimulant on the genito-ur.rary mein’cranes. Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dys entery and diarrhea, and some ciirouic diseases of the liver ana kidneys. These opinions as to the ingredients of Peruna are held by all writers on the subject, including Bartholow and Scudder. OF HYDRASTIS. BARTHOLD W .SAYS it is applicable to stomatitis (catarrh of the mucous surfaces of the mouth), follicular pharyngitis (catarrh of the pharynx), chronic coryza (catarrh of the head). This writer classes hydrastis as a stomachic tonic, useful in atonic dyspepsia (chronic gastric catarrh), catarrh of the duodenum, catarrh of the gall duct, catarrh of the intestines, catarrh of the kidneys (chronic Bright’s disease;, catarrh of the bladder, and catarrh of other pelvic organs. BARTHOLOW REGARDS CCPALCA as an excellent remedy for chronic catarrh of the bladder, chronic bronchitis (catarrh of the bronchial tubes). BARTHOLOW STATES THAT CUBEB, an ingredient of Peruna, pro motes the appetite and digestion, increases the circulation of the blood. Use ful in chronic na*l catarrh, follicular pharyngitis (catarrh of the pharynx), increasing the tonicity of the mucous membranes of the throat. It also re lieves hoarseness. Useful in atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), and in chronic catarrh of the colon and rectum, catarrh of the bladder, prostatorrhea, and chronic bronchial affections. MILLSPAUGH, MEDICINAL PLANTS, one of the most authoritative works on medicinal herbs in the English language, in commenting upon a nd MrsT d. Cleve Phillips. Our Peruna Tablet Is Peruna With Fluid Removed. Paragraphs Penned School Boy.” Daytonvllle, March 11.—The farm ers are running their plows all they can while the ground is In plowing condition. Some are sowln- oats and others are fixing their land to raise another large crop of cotton. We should think It would pay to reduce the cotton acreage and increase the corn acreage. We regret to learn that Mr. Frank Coyle, of Gaffney, Is lying very low. We learn that he is suffering with cancer of the stomach. We hope he will recover and be out In a few days. The weather seems like summer has come and the fruit trees are bud ding. but we are afraid that they will get injured about the last of this month. Mr. Cleve Phillips has moved his saw mill from Mr. Jefferies’ place to Mr. J. T. VVhite's, where he will be engaged in sawing a portion of the lumber for building the new church at this place. We learn that Mr. R. S. Spencer has sawed his bill for the church, but we cannot learn when they will begin to build the church. Miss Nettie Marsh w-as the guest of her friends, Misses Lula, Ethel and Eva Elmore, last Sunday. The wheat in this section is very small, comparing with the size it was last year, but we presume will start to growing now while the weather Is warm. Mr. FoYest Huggins is still improv ing and we learn that it will be about a rabbit near the cow and in his eager way attempted to shoot the rabbit and sighted a little too high and hit the cow. Mr. Adolphus Phillips has two sick cows. The cows ate some Ivy and he thinks that is the cause of their sickness. It is strange to us that ivy will kill some cows and will not kill others. We do not think that It is the ivy that bills the cows but a weed called “laurel” which is sure death if they eat it.. We think it a very low down act in some people with big mouths and long sharp tongues to run around and tell some big falsehood about what others said just to break up the friendship between the people. What does the Holy Book say about people who tell lies? It says that they shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. This world would be a better one if the people would stop telling big falsehoods. Mrs. G. Guardenhagen died last Sun day at her home near Mt. Ararat church Tuesday. Thie funeral ser vice was conducted by Rev. Ben Hoke, of Blacksburg. Her husband preceded her to the grave a few years ago. She leaves only one child to mourn her death. Our deepest sympathy goes out to daughter and relatives of the loved one who has gone on before. After all battles are won in the strife, And Jesus calls us to “come,” After we have finished our work in this life, Then we shall pass to that home of rest, the first of April before he can re- > sume his duties as mall corrier on After °ur morning and evening are route six. Miss Bertha Pennington spent last past, Sunday with her friend Miss Made Wilson. Mr. O. H- Wlhelchel went to Wil- kinsville yesterday to get some cot ton seed meal.

Mr. Ed Lee Whelchel and Miss Hessie Self, of Midway, were in this section last Sundoy afternoon. Mrs. W. N. Rains is very unwell at this writing. Mrs. Rains is getting up in years.

King's Creek, March 9.—It has been warm weather for the last week but this evening it is very cool. Farmers are putting in good time plowing and fixing for another crop. I have heard several say they were going to work their com on the Wil liamson plan. MT. Rufus Randall started his sing ing school last Saturday, the 7th. He had a large school for the first day. There are more intending to go. Mr. Randall is a good singer and he makes a hustling teacher. I don’t thing there is anything that does more good than good singing. Gray Eyes, I hope you will suc ceed in getting the people to go to Sunday school. Messrs. Everett Humphries and Jimmie Dlcbson visited Mr. R. A. Westbrook and family Saturday. Miss Lula Borders was a visitor to Antioch Sunday school last Sunday. Wle have a large Sunday school at Antioch, but there is a lot of people that live Olfose who don’t attend. Mr. J. L.

Harriosn filled his regu lar appointment at Corinth Sunday. Mr. Ralph LeMaster was a Corinth visitor Sunday. « Messrs. Claud and Ben Hammett, Mr. Ed Blalocb and Miss Juanita^f pondfleld, attended preaching here Thickety Tooics. Tickety, March 11.—Mr. and Mrs. Littlejohn spent last Sunday in Thickety with Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Smith. Mr. ahd Mrs. C. E. Smith, Mrs. J. general. In the mountains of Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and Carolina, collinsonia canadensis is considered a panacea for many disorders, including keadache, colic, cramp, dropsy and indigestion. DR. SCUDDER regards it highly as a remedy in chronic diseases of the lungs, heart disease and asthma. These citations ought to be sufficient to show to any candid mind that Be nina is a Catarrh remedy. Surely, such herbal remedies, that command the enthusiastic confidence of the highest authorities obtainable, brought together in proper combination, ought to make a catarrh remedy of the highest efficacy. This is our claim, and we are able to substantiate this claim by ample quotations from the HIGHEST MEDICAL AUTHORITIES IN THE WORLD. Joe Spake and Miss Gaffney, were visitors in Thickety last Watches! LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION- State of South Carolina, County of Cherokee. By J. E. Webster, Esquire, Probate Judge.
