For a number of years I have been a hard drinker, and anyone can tee what the treatment has done for me already. I had gotten to the place where a craving; for liquor waa so great. that I could not resist It and at times I was almost a wreck. Every one who knows me knows that I drank to excess, and tbe shape I was in, and I can now say to the public that I am a man- free from any craving or desire for liquor In any form and I feel like a different man and take great pleasure In ascribing my cure to Dr. McKanna's remarkable treatment, and I therefore urge and plead with those that are overpowered with the craving for strong drink to go and take the McKanna Cure.

Thanking Dr. McKanna and bis wonderful treatment for what it did for me, I heartily recommend it to be Just as he claims. Yours very truly, R. TURNER. 2311 Chestnut Avenue, Newport Newi.

I ctiaser. A. B. flKI.prvKIl, I machinery In thla part of the country Is an ominous one for Mr. Taft Already persuaded that the President oannot be re-elected even If he Is renominated.

It will be a miracle If Mr. Taft'a campaign managers can hold even that part of the pie-counter brigade which la already pledged to him in line. The Colonel's visit should have the effect, however, of reviving on the part of the great body of the cltlienahlp of tbls part of the country some recollection of how vast haa been the difference between the attitude of the present occupant of the House toward the South, and that of his predecessor. Most of your friends down this way cannot vote for you. Mr.

Taft, but they are not without a very deep sense of appreciation of. your strong and statesmanlike treatment of a section which has suffered much and deeply. Charleston News and Courier, Dr. J. T.
