\lr. Raleigh G. Bryans
Meets Tragic Death j
The death of Mr. Raleigh G. 1
Bryans occured at a Macon hos- 1
pital, on Sunday Morning last at
5:30, bringing deep sorrow and
regret to numerous Henry county
relatives and friends.
Mr. Bryans lost his life from a
tragic accident on the Southern,
railway, on which he has been an
employee for several years. He
was discharging his duties as flag
man, switching cars at Juliette
Friday afternoon. In passing
through a gate across the side
track to the large mills there,
where the space is said to be
very close, he was koncked from ,
the side of the car, thrown under
the wheels and both thighs hor
ridly mangled. As soon as possi
ble he was rushed to the Macon
hospital, and one leg amputated.
His father and mother, Mr. and
Mrs. S. G. Bryans, were telegraph
ed, reaching him Friday night.
His condition was reported favor
able Saturday, when it was
thought he would recover, but a
sudden change ended in his sad
death, as above stated.
Mr. Bryans was 24 years old,
and an excellent young man, with
hosts of friends who deeply sym
pathize with the sorrowing pa
rents and other relatives.
The remains were brought
home and interred in Salem cem
etery Monday afternoon, Rev. Mr.
Adamson, the pastor, performing
the ceremonies.
~ His Backache Gone.
More men have kidney trouble
than are aware of it. Just how
serious a backache, sore muscles,
aching joints, rheumatism, swol
len ankles, and blurring vision
may be is sometimes realized only
when a man attempts to take out
life insurance and is refused on
account of kidney trouble. Jo
seph G. Wolf, 734 So. Jackson
St., Green Bay, Wis., writes: Fo
ley Kidney Pills relieved me of a
severe backache that had both
ered me for several months.”

Drops Dead in Field.
Jim Gresham, a worthy colored
tenant on the place of Mr. P. W.
Puliiti below Greenwood, was
found in the field at noon
last Monday. Gresham went out
to begin plowing at his accustom
ed hour, and not returning at
noon, someone went to hunt him,
when he was found dead behind
his plow, where he had evidently
fallen, the lines grasped in his
hands and the mule still standing.
It is thought he had acute indi
gestion, having complained some
before leaving home. He was 18
or 20 years old.
For Summer Troubles.
Hay fever afflicts thousands
and asthma sufferers endure tor

It eases the terrible, gasping

rasped by constant efforts to
check irritating disturbances.

The Best Ever.
Seventeen years ago I put in
my Ro'ler Flour Mill at this place
and so startled the natives with
ils most excellent product that
farmers for 35 miles around
brought me their wheat and one
and all were delighted. In fact,
it created such interest that with
in two years there were ten other
roller mills put up in my territory,
llie next season nearly every
farmer sowed wheat and an im
mense crop was harvested, but it
was a very wet season and nearly
all the wheat was damaged, so
that very few got any decent
flour. The second year wheat
was bad, and since then we have
not had a real good, well devel
oped and cured crop of wheat un
til this year. What wheat was
made is almost identical with the
1899 crop, so that now many of
my cu toinersare saying that this
is “The Best Ever,” and I say that
it is as good.
80, if in 1899 the farmer could
come 35 miles and be pleased,
you certainly can come 15 miles
or more and be more than pleased.
One trip is all 1 ask to convince
you that my new miller, Mr.
Smith, and the rest of us will
serve you in such a way that you
will come back again. We are
giving in exchange as much for
this crop as we gave in 1899, and
that is the limit.
We cordially invite a trial. I
remain, Truly yours,
H. A. DeLOACH.
