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.” Newsy Notee and Ptreonals Prom Our Regular Correspondent Ravenna, Dec. 9.—Our thanks are due Mr. John H.

Luther Thompson, a young while farmer, who lives near Inman, while 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.

Wilkins & Stacy ll-17-l-mo Keep on your Mind You GeUYouf Bread, Rolls, Cakes and Pies ■Made ol vary beat Quality; AT Finckens Steam Bakery Phone No. 139. 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. Wilkes Brown had his teams haul ing cotton seed to Jonesville yester day. Mrs. C. E. Kitchens spent Monday night with Mrs. J. B. Brown. Miss Addie Brown is making ar rangements to have a library added to her school at Goucher. Our merchants, as usual, are filling up their stores with toys, nuts, can dies and every other kind of goods. From the looks at the show windows they look for a good holiday trade. The Ledger, Cherokee’s hustling newspaper, is read by many, for Mr. D.

If you want to keep up v/lth all news in Cherokee county, take and read The Ledger. WJe may not appear next week, owing to the amount of news we receive. C. The Gaffney Drug Co. Will Furnish 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 ney, S.
