The Cause of Many

deaths are caused by
fit—heart disease,
S eumonla, heart

are often the result
of kidney disease. If
kidney troubld is al-
lowed to advance the
kidney-poisoned

vital organs or the
Kidneys themselves break down and waste
away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles most always result from
a derangement oh the kidneys and a cure is
obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidneys. If jrou are feeling badly you
can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and
bladder remedy.
It corrects Inability to hold urine and scald
ing pain in passing It, and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to
go often during the day* and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases?
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and sold
by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar
sized bottles. You may
have a sample bottle of.
this wonderful new dis
covery and a book that
tells all about it, both
sent free by mail. Address Dr. Kilmer* & Co.
Binghamton, N. Y. When writing mention
reading this generous offer in this paper.
Don’t make any mistake, but remember
the. name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, and the address, Binghamton,
N. Y., on every bottle.

evening complimentary to Miss Ro
sa Caldwell of Butler and Mr. Mil-
lard 0. Mosley of Elkin, JS. O. Miss
Caldwell and Mr. Mosley received
the guests in the reception hall,
which was artistically decorated ih
white roses, palms and wild smilax.
Miss Caldwell was beautifully gown
ed in white Paris muslin over taffe
ta, and carried Paul Neyron roses.
From thereeeption hall the guestB
were ushered into the spacious dining
hall, where, from a handsome silver
bowl almost hidden in a bank of
crimson roses, Miss Joanna Yinson
gracefully, served fruit punch.
In the meantime soft strains of
music from the parlor, where Miss
Effie Louise Crawford, in her inim
itable style, presided at the piano.
Musio and games were indulged
in until 11 o’clock, when delicious
ices and cakeB were served.
A most delightful evening was
spent, and at a late hour the gueBts
departed.
Those invited to meet Miss Cald
well and Mr. Mosley were: Misses
Effie Louisp Crawford, Joanna Yin
son, Lillian Warren, Bertha Peavy,
Margaret and Hattie Warren, Lil
lian Taylor, Lizzie and Mattie King,
Bessie and Essie Cline, Mattie Du-

A Family Reunion.
Last Sunday, May 17th, quite an
enjoyable day was spent at the home
of Mr, and Mrs. E. W. Leaptrjbt,
near Hattie. At 11:30 u. m. the
the house was about full, and Mrs.
Leaptrot began to notice that all of
her children, sons-in-law and grand
children were there.
The blessed mother has been sick
for the past we&k, but after she
found that they were all at home
once more she did not complain any
more during the day.
Mr. and Mrs. Leaptrot have eleV'
en children—seven girls and four
boys—five sons-in-law, one daught
er-in-law, 11 grandchildren, all in
good health. These all cheerfully
spent the day, and hid some very
good vocal and instrumental music.
The little grandchildren were tot
tling and chattering worse than a
drove of new blaokbirds just settled
in. a wheat field. This was some
thing for the parents to feel proud
of. They had not seen them all to
gether for several years, but may
again, it is hoped. All numbered
thirty, and before the beautiful sun
shine had set its seal in the darkness
of night some few friends had gath
ered among them. X.
Attorney General Knox is in a
quandary. He is like the fellow
who was drunk aDd was hugging a
lamp post. If he let go he would
fall, and if he held on he would
freeze. Mr. Knox has shown that a
successful prosecution of the trusts
can be conducted, and he doesn’t
want to injure the trusts. They are
creatures of the republican party,
and the party is their creature. If
the party is going to turn against
its friends there is going to be trou
ble. If I^r. Knox does not go on
the people will make life a burden
for him, and if he does go on the
trusts will smash him. And that’s
what’s the matter with Knox.—

A chambermaid of Indianapolis is
being made financially independent
by a peculiar cause. About two
weeks ago Miss Louise Hadley, a
chambermaid at the Hotel English
in Indianapolis, Indiana, refused to
“make up” the bed in which Booker
Washington had slept the previous
night. For that refusal she was dis
charged from the hotel service. The
fact was published in the newspa

sent her money to the extent of
more than $1,000, with promises of
more to follow.

St-....,
On last Saturday morning at 2:40
o’clock, the death angel visited the
home of Rev. H. C. Brewton and
took from our midst his dearly be
loved wife. She had been aiok for
several weeks, and her death was a v
great shook to the town. She was a
devout Christian woman and her life
as without a blemish. To know
hfcr was to love her. But He know-
eth and doeth all thing's right. It
is his will and not ours.
She leaves to mourn her death,
besides her many friends and loved
, T ,__ a husband, three daughters
afid three sons.
The bereaved family . have our
heartfelt sympathy during the hours
of their sorrow.
There is peace in knowing that
she is at rest beyond the river, and
may we some day join her in that
beautiful laud and Bing His praises
forever.
The burial was at Fort Valley

A Friend.
Death Near Dunbar.
Arrie Busbee, only child of Mr,
and Mrs. S. R. Busbee, departed this
life May 13, 1903, aged seaven years
and eight months.
Yes, another dear little life has
flickered and gone out; but the soul
—which is the real life—has risen
triumphant aud left its clay house
to dwell in the sheltering arms of a
loving Saviour. What a precious
thought and how oomforting to
know that never again can Bhe suf
fer pain. She is where no heart
aches, no sorrow can come; and she
is safe—yes, and saved—for all eter
nity.
Fond parents, isn’t it worth all
you suffer to know this? There are
two little pairs of hands, now, beck
oning to you from up yonder. Not
bekoning for you, for there is a work
here for you to do >yet; but little
beckoning hands that want you to
look up, not down. It will help you,
too, to realize how much dearer
Heaven is, now that your darlings
are there.
God lent these two little rosebuds
to you for a .while, but He needs
them now to draw your thoughts to
Him. And He is the only one who
can pour balm on your wounded
hearts. It is only a sympathizing
Jesus who can understand and as
suage such grief; and He is so will
ing to help if you will only ask. Do
not, I entreat, think of dear little
Arrie in the grave, but think of her
as being with the angels,- singing
glad anthems of praise to her Crea
tor, while she bends over the battle
ments of Heaven waiting for you—
watching for you.
May you so live that when the
watching ia over >you may join your
darlings up there. ^ M. L. J.

The reoent change for better
weather was gladly welcomed by
all, especially the farmers. Crops
and gardens are already looking
better.
A visiting minister preaohed at
the home of Mr. Bob Hardison
last Saturday night.
Last Friday afternoon, while at
play, Harry, the young son of our
efficient assistant teaoher, Mrs.
Nellie Grimsley, stuck a nail in
his foot, making a painful wound[
Dt. Warren of Byroii attended
him.
Last Sunday afternoon the
neighborhood was alarmed by the
ringing of the farm bell at Mr.
H. G. Hardison’s. His little
daughter, whom at first they
thought to be asleep, was discov
ered in a dying condition. A phy
sician was summoned in time to
prevent death from .claiming her,
and to-day she is better. Inves
tigation showed that she had ta
ken a narcotic of some kind, in
play, not knowing it was poison.
Our school will close Friday.
All are glad,for both teaohers and
piif>i]l have worked hard this term
ami part of the time under trying
circumstances. A program ot rec
itations and readings will be ren
dered in the afternoon, followed
by refreshments suitable for the
