LOCAL NEWS NOTES
FROM LAKE CITY.
FINE SCHOOL OPENING?SEBIOUS CUT
TING AFFRAY?A PHOSPEROUS
BJtNK?CHURCH NEWS.
Lake City, September 22:?The
Coast Line has a gang here extending
the side tracks. These tracks
are to be extended a half mile or
more towards the south, and when
y completed there will be no more
switching north of Main street.
This will be quite an improvement
and one long ueeded. Very often
crowds crossing the tracks at
this street are 60 dense that it requires
the constant care of a watchful
policeman to prevent accident.
The graded school opened Monday :
with a very good attendauce of pu- j
nila fnr th#? first dav. The ceneral
I ? ?J- roll
has not beeu made up at this
writing, consequently the exact
number is not known, but there!
were about three hundred. Last
year the attendance reached three
hundred and fifty, and will certainly
exceed those figures this session. It
is estimated that the number will in
all probability go to four hundred
and fifty. Superintendent Seawell
and ail the teachers were on hand
except one, there being a vacancy in
the corps occasioned by the resignation
of a young lady teacher who
gave up her position a few days ago
to get married, and her place has
not yet been filled. Several hundred
patrons and other citizens attended
the opening exercises and there was
a good deal of speechmaking and so

The bank of Lake City is making
an interesting and even remarkable

over half of its capital stock was

has on deposit one hundred and fiftyseven
thousand dollars. This is cer-j
tainly gratifying to all.

Peruna Tabids Tested.
What are the Pemna Tablets good
for? Has anybody used them enough
to know what they will do? Read the
following letter and see. If you have
any doubt as to tko genuineness of the
letter, write to Mrs. Lohr, enclose a

testimonial is genuine or not:
Ravenna, Mich., June 16, 1908.
The Peruna Drug Co.
In regard to the Peruna Tablets, X
have used about ten boxes in all.
f While I was in Ch'cago my oldest
daughter was bothered with a cough
all the time. She has had it for four
years. Sometimes it would go away,
and in the winter time it was so bad
that tlio doctors and professors said
that she had consumption, and the only
way to give her any relief was to perform
an operation.
I spend so much money for different
medicines, and f<r doctors also. Nothi!)
IT seemed to help her.
bo I er.w the peruna Tablets adver-^
tised in the paper, and I got a box
and tried them. She could get some
sleep by talcing them. She would be up
all night and cough. So in all she took
six boxes, and never was bothered any
more.
I will leave this for any one to inquire
at our old residence, where we
lived in Chicago. All our neighbors
would say that she could not live with
such a cough. You don't know how
thankful 1 am. She is eighteen years
old.
My oldest son also was bothered with
his slonuch, throwing up, and hia
bowels so loose all tbe time. He was
all run down for four months. I also
doctored with him. One would say this
and the other something else. I started
in to give him 1 he Tablets, and now he
is all right and healthy looking. He
took four boxes. That is all he wanta
to take whenever anything ails him.
So I praise your Tablets just as high
as I have your Peruna. That is ail '-?J
the medicine that ever comes in my
house. Whenever I travel I take some
with me. I have had three of my childrcnsick
with seariet fever two months
ago, and that is all I used, was the Peruna
and the Tablets. 1 aid not lose
any of them.
If there is any more information you
want, why just let me know and I will
be glad to do so. Yours truly, ?'
