The Jonesville Correspondent of
the News and Courier says:
"The McWhirter Roller Mill is
grinding new wheat day and night.
The wheat is not as good as it was
last year and does not turn out quite j
as much Hour, neither is it as white, j
but it is bread for the eater.
A new and commodious church has
been lately built and dedicated at
Gilead near Jonesville to take place
of the old, unsightly church building.
The church records at this place date
back about one hundred years. The .
Rev. Mr. Telmet, the pastor of the I
church, has been the prime mover in
this good work.
The fouodation is being graded for
the new knitting mill building and
bricklaying will begin next week.
The carpenters are already at work."

disease that science has been able to i
cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh. !
Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive i
cure now known to the nvdical fra- j

disease, requires a constitutional treat-'

disease and giving the patient streng'h

and, although still very small, looks
