Little men strual disorders started at that time soon grow into fatal complications. That female troubles are filling graveyards proves this, Wine of Cardui estab lishes a painless and natural menstrual flow. When once this important func tion is started right, a healthy life will usually follow. Many women, young and old, owe their lives to Wine (3 Cardui. There is nothing like it to give women freedom from pain and to fit young women for every duty of life. SI.OO bottles at druggists. Miss Pdla M. Strayer, Tully, Kaiu "I have suffered untold pain at menstrual pe riods For a long time, was nervous, had no appetite, and lost interest in everything, in fact was miserable.

Stone, chairman of the democratic executive com mittee with head quarters at New York, has discovered a nicely ar ranged plot of tiie republican party to import negroes into West V ir ginia and Kentucky, to carry those countries for McKinley this fall. They are to be imported by rail road companies under the guise of being laborers, and will work on these roads until election day when they will be voted, after which they will go to their homes. The discovery of this piece of trickery, practiced before, will be frustrated, and may he the cause of bloodshed, for the depiocrats do not intend to he imposed upon and cheated out of their rights in that way.” Mr. Stone savs. You can go to Savannah and re turn on the 17th, for $2.00.

M. Knight. Finley's Card. To (he brothers and sisters of (he Smyrna Association: Much has been said, and is still being said in regard to myself, and connection with the Association. In the first place, it is asserted that I declared a non-fellowship with the Smyrna Association which is palpably false. In the second place it is reported that 1 declared a non-fellowship with those that would not wash feet. This in part is false. We say in our articles of faith that we believe in the ordinances and ex amples that Jesus Christ, denomi nated, (The Lord’s Supper and washing the Saints feet,) we in the next breath say we don’t be lieve it and will not perform the rile, we then become to be liars, and that is the class that I have de clared a non-fellowship with—■ “Tlie Liar.” There is one charge that I am ready to plead guilty to, that is, contending for the faith that was once delivered to the saints, and contended for by some of the Smyrna Association. Now in conclusion, feet washing cuts no figure with me, hut your lying does. Rev. 22, 15. Yours to serve in the gospel. A. B. FINLEY. No more “fussing” because you can’t get nice Dress Goods and Trimmings. Mr. Paxson Inis sent Mr. Wooten to New York to buy the finest goods he can find. Says The Mormons Have Stolen His Wife and Children. A special from Fitzgerald last Saturday, says : “Yesterday a horse with a bug gy attached came up to Mr. Tom Howell’s, a prominent farmer liv ing near Ocilla, this county, and from the looks of the horse it was thought he had been without an owner some time. Mr. Howell, with his neighbors, at once insti tuted a search for the owner of the rig and some hours afterwards a white man was found wandering through tiie woods in a demented condition. From letters found in his. posess ion it was learned that the man’s name was J. M. Word, ol Macon, who represents the Excelsior Med icine Company of Waycross. Mr. Word (it may he Ward) told Mr. Howell that the mormons had kill ed his wife and children and wen then after him. Mr. Howell took him to Willacoochee, where lie was turned over to the authorities to receive proper medical treatment. Before parting witii Mr. Howell he gave him his watch and chain and requested that lie send it to his wife at Macon. The rig was iden tified as belonging to him, and it is thought with good treatment he will pull through his present con dition.” For Men Only. The ladies will please not read this. Mr. Wooten lias gone to New York to buy my Fall and Winter Stock of Clothing and Overcoats.
