The three year old boy of J. A. John
son, of Lynn Center, 111., is subject to
attacks of croup. Mr. Johnson says he
is satisfied that the timely use of Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy, during a se
vere attack, saved his little boy’s life.
He is in the drug business, a member of
the firm of Johnson Bros, of that place;
nnd they handle a great many patent
medicines for throat and lung diseases.
He had all these to chose from, and
skilled physicians ready to respond to
his call, but selected this remedy for use
in his own family at a time when his
child’s life was in danger, because he
knew it to be superior to any other, and
famous the country over for its cures of
croup. Mr. Johnson says this is the
best selling cough medicine they handle
and that it gives splendid satisfaction in
all cases. Sold by Curry-A rrington Co.,

Belongs to Capt. Thompson Hiles.
Capt. Thompson Hiles yesterday re

dox, made a trip to Texas. While
there be visited some of the great pe
can orchards of the Lone Star State

him.
These were planted, but only two ever
came up. During the war one sprout was
trampled upon and killed. The other
grew apace, and today is one of the
largest pecan trees in North Georgia,
It is a very prolific bearer and several
bushels of fine nuts are gathered from
the tree every fall.

HIS LIFB- DASHED OUT.
E. L. Craigmiles Falls From Fourth
Floor of • Birmingham Hotel.
E. L. Craigmiles, formerly of Rome, a
stenographer at the First National bank
of Birmingham, met a horrible death at
the Eagle hotel in that city ebortly before
2 o’clqclf on Wednesday afternoon, • It
seems that the young mah' at
work in the bank all the morning. He
left his place of business shortly after 1
o’clock and went to the hotel fur dinner.
His room was on the fourth floor, facing
east. He was apparently in the best of
health at the time, und asked if dinner
was ready as he went up to his room. On
being informed that it was, he stated that
he would go and bathe his face. This
was the last seen of him until shortly
before 2 o’clock, when a negro servant in
passing around in the yard on the east
side of the building under Craigmiles’
room, was horrified to find the young
man’s dead body on the stone walk. His
skull was broken and legs and arms
frightfully mangled.one arm being twist
ed almost off. Craigmiles was subject to
epileptic fits, and it is regarded as almost
certain that while near an open window
he was seized with a fit and fell out. The
dead man’s friends say this was undoubt
edly the manner in which he met death,
and scout the idea that he suicided.
Craigmiles was about 35 years old and
was unmarried. He was originally from
Cleveland, Tenn.
In Rome Mr. Craigmiles was connected
with the First National bank. Ha went
from here to Chattanooga aud thence to
Birmingham.
