One of Thousands of Homes.
FRS. FLORENCE AITKEXS, 4093rd
St., Toledo, Ohio, writes: “Peruna
cared me of internal catarrh. I took
about four bottles when I noticed the im
provement and the fifth bottle cured me.
“I do not know what I woulcLhave
been like today had I not got Peruna,
for I was in a terrible state. I had pains
all over and was cross and irritable. I
was losing hope of ever being well
again, and was downhearted. I am to
day a cured woman, after suffering for
nine months.
“I cannot tell you how happy I feel,
but you will know. I never heard of
such medicine; it is the best medicine
on earth. My husband is now taking
it. I will always keep Peruna in my
house. Peruna is the best friend I ever
had. It must be praised; it cured me.”
Pe-ru-na Tablets.
For two years Dr. Hartman and his
assistants have labored incessantly to
create Peruna in tablet form, and their
strenuous efforts have just been crowned
With success. People who object to
liquid medicines can now secure Peruna
tablets.
M
Another Home
Where Pe-ru-na is Used.
RS. MARIA GOERTZ, Orients,
Oklahoma, writes: “My husband,
children and myself have used your
medicines, and we always keep them
in the housle in case of necessity.
“I was restored to health by this
medicine. People ask about me from
different places, and are surprised that
I can do all of my housework alone,
and that I was cured by the doctor of
chronic catarrh.
“My husband was cured of asthma,
my daughter of earache and catarrh of
the stomach, and my son of catarrh of
the throat. When I was sick I weighed
one hundred pounds; now I weigh one
hundred and forty. Pernna quiets the
nerves, and is a great specific for all
forms of chronic catarrh.”

In an intoxicated condition, fell out
of his buggy and his neck hung over
the dashboard and he strangled to
death. \
Thompson was found dead In his
buggy at his home near Inman Tues-.
day morning. From what can be
learned, he returned from North Car
olina Monday night, and had a con
siderable amount of booze aboard.
He drove into hts lot to put. up his
horse and buggy, and when he was
found Monday morning he was hang
ing over the dashboard. It is pre
sumed that his neck gpt catight. in
some way and before he could ex
tricate himself he strangled to death.
His body was found early next morn
ing by members of his family.
Coroner Turner was notified of the
death of the young farmer and went
to Inman to hold the inquest. At
first it was thought that he died from
cold and exposure, but an investi
gat ion developed the fact that he fell
from his buggy and was strangled to
death by getting his neck caught
over the dashboard.

Mr. and Mrs. John E. Clary, of
Macedonia, visited relatives here last
Sunday.
Saul Goforth, youngest son of Mr.
and Mrs. K. R. Goforth, has measles.
It seems to us, although we may
be mistaken that the Farmers Union
has been the cause of the low de- j
pressed cotton market. At one time
when cotton was bringing twelve
and thirteen cents a pound, the union
saw fit to move the price up to fifteen
cents and what was the outcome?
Well, to begin, the price fell and to
day the unioh stands as the actual
cause of the present eight and three-
quarter cents cotton. Everybody has
his opinion about the present prices
of coiton and we thought we would
express our opinion on this subject
so dear to all the faithful farmers.
We would like for other edrrespond-
ents of The Ledger to come out and
tell Ledger readers their views along
the above lines. “J. L. S.,” give us a
good write up on this.
We are glad to note “Ben Hope”
has succeeded in having arrange
ments made with Mr. DeCamp for his
“Literary Department” in The Led
ger. We are eagerly watching for
the appearance of the first install
ment, which “Ben Hope” says will
soon be ready for the press.
“Edna,” of Gowdeysville, is giving
us newsy letters now. Keep us post
ed from your section.

The Ledger, Cherokee’s hustling
newspaper, is read by many, for Mr.
D. Both Hughes, of Grindall, says
since we reported the finding of the
iron plate in The Ledger, scores of
curiosity seekers have called to see

The Medicine Free In Eevry Case
Where They Fail To Cure
Catarrh.
Neglect or pessimism we believe
is the greatest enemy the public have
last | to contend with when applied to the
loss or recovery of health. Practi
cally every case of consumption
might have been cured if hope had
been maintained and proper treat
ment had been resorted to at the first
symptom of the disease. Until the
advanced stage is reached, consump
tion is curable. Catarrh is respon
sible, we believe, for every case of
consumption. It is about Catarrh we
want to talk to you today, incidentally
consumption, since the two are so
closely allied.
We have a medicine made from the
prescription of one of the most sue
cessful catarrh specialists known.
This medicine has a record of 98 per
cent of cures, and we believe it is
positively without an equal. We are
so satisfied that we are right, that
we will supply the medicine free in
every instance where it is used ac
cording to directions for a reasonable
length of time and fails to cure and
give satisfaction in -every particular.
We want everyone in Gaffney to try
this medicine at our risk. There are
no conditions or formality attached to
our offer. We put the user under no
obligation to us whatever.
The medicine we want you to try
is Rexall Mucu-Tone. It is a catarrh
remedy that goes direct to the seat of
trouble. It is carried by the blood to
every part of the system. It seeks
out and destroys the germs or para
sites which cause Catarrh. It puri-
fie§ and enriches the blood, tones up
the muco-cells, soothes and heals the
tissues that were ravaged by the ca
tarrhal parasite, and brings about a
condition of health and strength that
prevents the germs of consumption
from ever getting a stjirt. Besides
this, Rexall Mucu-Tone is a wonder
ful appetizer, digestive aid and flesh
builder. Its good effects are felt from
the very first dose. It is one of the
largest and most satisfactory selling
medicines that we haYe ever hat
anything to do with. We know so
much of the great good that it has
done that we personally back it up
with our reputation and money, which
fact should be ample guarantee to
satisfy anybody.
Rexall Mucu-Tone comes in two
sizes, 50c and $1.00. We urge you to
try it. The Gaffney Drug Co., Gaff
