spent one of the saddest of Sundays
as a result of ft shocking tragedy en
acted by one of her wellknown young
women, Mrs. W.IIamp Ward, who.
while suffering from a weakened
body of several months and in a
moment of temporary aberration,
with razor in hand, cut the own four-
year-old daughter’s throat from ear
to ear.producing almost instant death
severely cut one of her eight-year-
old twin daughters and cut slightly
the other twin daughter, and still
another, sparing only the fifth, a
small baby in the cradle, and then
slashing her own throat with the ter
rible instrument of death and de
struction. There is some slight hope
for the second daughter so badly cut.
the mother is not expected to die.
It .11 occured early Sunday morn
ing while members of the family were
sleeping. When she began her deadly
struggle with her children, under the
impression that she wfts killing snake
they were running pell moll over 'h
house. The husband and the father
in-law with the greatest of difficult-
were enabled to hold her and get th
razor from her hands. Notwithstar ’
ing the fact that she wns weakened
in body, she superhuman strength.
Neighbors, attracted by screams oi
the children, hurried to the home
and rendered all possible assistance
to the children. The deed prosterated
the husband and father and the fath
er-in-law and mother-in-law, who
lived in the home.
The little negro nurse, who was
assisting in cooking breakfast, hnd
| the presence of mind to go and get
the small baby from the cradle, else

the fame fate. The town h in the
greatest gloom over the ;ul and
chocking tragedy.

Noted Scientist Expounds Hb [
Theory That L :ist,ence Cen
ters in the Stomach—Inter
est Shown All Over State.
Interest continues all over the
state in the remarkable new theory
advanced by John Pomeroy that stom
ach trouble is responsible for the
vast majority of cases of ill health.
In an interview Mr. Pomeroy said:
“Stomach truble I consider the curse
of the century. Thousands who do not
know what is the matter with them
are suffering from it. They take so-
called treatments for nervousness,
kidney trouble, liver complaints, con
stipation or heart trouble. And in
vain, for they do not get at the real
cause. The stomach in many cases
has become slowly poisened by drop
ping of acid and nauseating mucus,
usually from catarrh, into the throat
during slumber, or careless swallow
ing of it through the day. An inflam,
ed condition results, digestion is ar
rested, dyspepsia is established, nutri
tion is denied, the appetite fails, the
liver is clogged, the blood is fouled,
kidneys can not act, constipation
follows, pimples appear, aches and
pains utter their warning, and a gen
eral debility is the result, followed
by suffering anc, death.
“I can not begin to number the
people who have come to me with
pitiful stories of how they had dizzy
spells, were weak all the time, could
not sleep at night, got up in the
morning more tired than when they
went to bed, and the very sight of
food nauseated them. Or sometimes
they had unnaturally ravenous ap
petites, felt stuffed up after eating,
their minds wandered, violent head
aches attacted them, often accompani
ed by a sudden nausea, vometing or
fainting spells. Many had been forced
to go without solid food for several
weeks at a time, had always a sour
stomach, were troubled with forma
tion of gas on that organ, led the
gloomy life of dyspeptics, the eye
sight was affected, they were dull,
tired, nervous and gloomy all the
time.
“Thousands of such sufferers have
poured out their thanks to my med
icine, Puratone, for restoring them
to good health. I am absolutely posi
tive that Puratone will relieve any
such case of stomach trouble in from
four to six weeks.”
Puratone is sold in Canton by the

C. M. Green, in Woodstock by Power

ONE-THIRD OF ALL HER WAKING HOURS

A wonderful place is that kitchen of mother’s—the place
where five long hours, and more, each day are dedicated cheer-j
fully and uncomplainingly to us. But how about a little
reciprocity? How about making that room—the real HEART OF THE HOME
