Kngland's South African e ar is one
very important piece of work which
the nineteenth century pushed off on
the twentieth. A few mouths ngo the

THINKS HILL THE MAN.
Holds Rword rn Holder,
Jn Rpite of the rival claims of Ohio
it is asserted thai New Jersey can
truthfully boast the possession of the
champion office-holder of the country
in point, of service. His name is
Thomas If. Hughes, and for 47 consec-
utive year* he hae served as clerk of
his school district. In addition to his
political record Mr. Hughes has just

utive term as secretary of the West

South t'arolinH'ff Farm Ulmr Law.
The existing Srmth Carolina law as
to contracts for farm lal>or contains
provisions which resemble somewhat
the Kn^lish labor legislation of a by-
gone day. If a farmhand obligates*
himself to do a certain work for a
certain time he cannot break the con-
tract unless he is prepared to go to
jail. It is provided also that if any
one shall knowingly employ a laborer
in any kind of work or service who is
under contract with another he shall
he liable to fine and imprisonment.

He declared that Senator Hill's friends
were at work all over the country
and that when the time came to name
the next national ticket there would
be practically no oppositon to Mr.
Hill.

not passed without a dissenting voice
and beeause he was refused the title
nf prince consort. Duke Henry should
be thankful that the grant was passed

ISS FRANCES M. ANDERSON,
t'orrwpomiinif Secretary of the
Higher Educational League, writes
frumthe "Astoria," Wanhington, IJ.
C\, the following:
••About two month* agol was taken
very ill with la grippe and was obliged
to go to bed. I took three bottles of
Peruna with very beneficial results,
and was able to leave my bed in a
week and regained my usual strength
very soon.
" I have nothing but praise for Peru-
na and recommend it to those simi-
larly afflicted whenever I can."—
Frances M. Anderson.
La grippe is. strictly speaking, epidemic
catarrh—that is to say, a variety of acute
catarrh which is so contagious and runs a
course nmre or less definite, the same as
•carlet fever, whooping cough, etc.
During the acute stages of la grippe it is
not a very fatal di.-cam.-, but the condition
in which it leaves the system has caused the
death of a countless number.
Indeed nearly evetv |>erson who has had
la grippe within the last three years finds
himself more or less deranged by the per-
nicious effects of this disease. The major-
ity of those who have escaped death find
lii'e scarcely worth living.
If this vast multitude of people could only
kr.ow with what certainty Peruna would
relieve them of all the bad effects which la
grippe has brought upon them, what an un-
told amount of suffering could he averted!
Thousands have already heard how quick-
ly this remedy will cure in these canes and
have been saved; but tens of thousands have
not jet heard, and continue to suffer on,
dropping into the grave one by one.
I'etuna cures catarrh in all stages and va-
rieties, whether acute or chronic, and U
therefore the most effective remedy ever de-
vised for removing all the derangement*
which follow la grippe.
Samuel M. York writes from Union.
Grove, Ala., the following letter:
Dear Sir:—"I.ast week I was takm with
la grippe and catarrhal deafness, I wrote
you for advice and followed your direc-
tions. Atter taking two bottles of l'ermia
I found myself well of la grippe, and my
hearing was fully restored. My health ia
better than it has been in five years.
"My wife improved in health very much
after taking Perunn."—Samuel M. York.
Miss Caroline •). Kahl, Otisco, Ind.. writes
as follows:
••Three years I had la grippe and
pulmonary trouble. I was very sick.
I had hemorrhages of the lungs nearly
evrey day for a year, and three bottles
of your Peruna cured me. The doctor
said I had consumption. I am now in
better health than I have been for
many years.
"I highly recommend Peruna to all my
neighbors and friends. Peruna is my favor-
ite medicine. I shall always have Peruna in
the house."—Miss Caroline J. Kahl.
If you do not derive prompt and satisfac-
tory results from the use of Peruna, writeat
once to I)r. Hartman, giving a full statement
of your case and he will be pleased to give
you his valuable advice gratis.
