NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA CAN
B3 CURED IF ONE WILL
TRY THE RIGHT
THING.
I was down with nervous dys
pepsia for eight years. When
was taken I weighed 185 pounds,
and it reduced me to 118. I could
not touch solid food. I believe if I
had taken solid food it would have
killed me, and I had to live on
sweets and lightest kind of diet.
I had severe nervous spells nearly
every day and vould have doctors
to treat me, but they did not do me
one particle of good not even to
relieve me.
I was so weak that for thiee
months I was not able to walk
across the room. I had rather die
than to suffer it over again, and I
felt that I was in a worse condition
than any one who ever lived.
Mrs Joe Person and my wire
persuaded me to use Mis Joe Per
son's Remedy.
1 bought a dozen bottles and it
was three months months before 1
felt any relief at all. Then I com
menced to improve right along.
I took thirty-hva bottles and it
cured me.
It has been two years since I was
cured, and 1 have never had a
touch of the trouble since, and can
eat anything under the sun, and as
much of it as I want.
If any one will stick to Mrs Joe
Person's Remedy long enough to
build up the system. I know it
will cure the most aggravated cases
of dyspepsia or nervousness that
can be found.

IT'S A
ommon.
Thing
for a dealer to tell you his
piano is just as good as a
Stieff. These comparisons
speak more for the Stieff
piano than any thing we can
say but you may save your
self remorse for having
bought a cheap piano by
writing Stieff before you
make a purchase, and get
the piano that the REST are
compared with. It must be
a great piano to be compared
by every dealer over the
country. Write Stieff before
you buy.
To Advertisers.
The Courier has spent large
sums of money in working up its
circulation and to-day it thorough
ly covers Randolph and adjoining
counties besides having a large list
throughout this and other states.
But we are working to build up
Randolph county and the Piedmont
section of North Carolina.
To this end we have built our cir
culation, that our advertisers and the
community might secure the greater
publicity. We have improved
our plant and enlarged our paper
all of which necessarily increases
expenses.
Hence this article notifying our
advertisers that after March 1st,
1906, the advertising rate is as fol
lows:
Per inch onetime 2."c
" " " month per issue 0e
" " two months " " 7c
" " six " and over " " LV-
Reading notices will le charged at tlie
rate of one cent per word. No reader ae
cepted for less than 2.V.
iUl bills payable monthly.
Our circulation is not made up'
of dead heads and exchanges, but
paying subscribers, who send us the
cash for their subscription. Few
are more than six months in arrears
d manv are paid in advance.
This shows that we circulate among
a prosperous people the class that
advertisers desire to reach.
The Courikii appreciates the
patronage accorded it in the past
and pledges every effort to give
value received tor tuture business
placed with it.
