Death of Mr. H. W. English,
FROM
Tlie Cause of piatiy^ig
Sudden Deaths.
Ihere Is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep-
«... v-u. tiVQ Id any sudden
! deaths are caused by
i it—heart disease,
1 pneumonia, heart
! failure or apoplexy
are often the result
of kidney disease. If
kidney trouble is al
lowed to advance the
; kidney-podsoned
1 blood will attack the
vital organs or the
kidneys themselves break down and waste
away cell by cell. *
Bladder troubles most always result from
a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is
obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidneys. {If you 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 Homo of Swamp-Root,
sent free by mall. 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.
Mr. Henry W. English died ab
his home near Fowersville last
Thursday..
He was about 40 years old, a
most excellent gentleman and an
energetic and progressive farmer.
He had been in ill health a year
or more, and for several months had
steadily approached death, having
been afflicted with consumption.
He leaves a wife and several ohil-
dren to mourn his death and with
them many friends sincerely sympa
thize.
Considerable trouble is being
caused by the will of Mr. Henry B.
Plant, the millionaire railroad mag
nate who died in New York in 1889.
By that will the greater portion of
the testator’s property was to be
kept intact until the children of an
infant grandson should be old
enough to receive it. A feature of
the contest now before the courts
concerning the will is a petition to
fix the legal residence of Mr. Plant
at the time of his death. It is esti
mated that the property involved
will aggregate $80,000,000 when the
heirs receive it.
-Eggs hav6 been exceedingly
scarce in Perry and since early
fall the price here has advanced
from 12£ cents to 80 cents a doz
en. Nobody knows what’s the
matter with the hens, but the
scarcity of eggs is a distressing
fact. We have heard no com
plaint concerning the physical
condition of the hens, but they
have quit laying to any satisfying
extent. As a result of this scar
city of eggs, there will be a scarc
ity of cake, eggnog and similar
good things during the holidays.
—Mr. Russell Moore died at the
home of his father near Port Val
ley last Friday, after an illness
of about ten days. He was about
27 years old, a printer, and had
been connected with the Leader,
publisher of the Enterprise, and
just prior to his fatal illness sev
ered his connection with a large
printing establishment in Atlan
ta. Besides his father and sever
al brothers, he leaves a wife and
young son to mourn hie loss, and
with them their friends sincerely
,sympathise.

Recorder Nottingham has an
nounced that men who get drunk
on the streets of Macon and are ar
rested, must pay heavily for the
privilege. After having fined a
white man $25 for being drunk and
disorderly, he said; “If you are
plain drunk on the streets it will
cost $10. If you get drunk and
talk too much it will cost $25,”
