IN MEMORY OF MARTHA WOOD. Mrs. Martha Wood was born in Jackson county, Ga., Lent. 13, I«33, and died at her borne near Cony ers, Rockdale county, Ga., January 27, 1895. Her maiden name was Hunt-r. She was united in marriage to Rev. Leslb* Allen Wood on August 24, 1854. Of this union was born six children, four sons and two daughteis, all of whom sui vive. Hhe was converted and joined the Baptist church at Lawreuceville, Gwinnett conn ty, Georgia, in the year 1853 Since that time she has led a true Christian life, never fa 1 1 ing in any duty which she could perform for the cause of the Lord. She united herself by ter with Salem church August, 18(58, where her membership re¬ mained till her death. Her hus hand took his flight to his re¬ ward in the faiier land, October 21, 18(58, but she w ithstood this trial, and was faithful to the re¬ sponsibilities of rearing her chil¬ dren like the true Christian wo¬ man that she was. She was most devoted to her children, and spent her life in trying to rear them in the ways of right¬ eousness and truth, and her la¬ bors and prayers have not been bestowed in vain,for all her chil¬ dren, save one, have beconn members of the church, and all are leading lives of piety and truthfulness, following onward in the toot prints of their moth¬ er towards the peaily gates into which she has passed. About two years ago her life began to wane; her Christian experience grow sweeter ; hei failh stronger, and her Hopes grew blighter. Fora longtime before her death her suffering was intense. For moio than eight mouths the lights in hei home were never extinguished at night. Her life was real practical and spiritual It is sublime to live as she lived. She ■was adequate to the responsibil ities oflife ; for her death had im terrors. A/ter death she is ■w ji.h the Lord forever. We shall Imr among the children of Light in the city of God. While we all deeply deplete the death of Sister Wood, let strive to emulate the many vir¬ tues that shine out so conspicu¬ ously in her character, and U pet pel nate the principles to v hid) the memory of her life j ointeas an abiding inspiration. Resolved, 1. That a copy ot this tiilmteof respect he furnish¬ ed the family of the deceased. Resolved, 2.

Convulsions have bafllcd the medical world since the time of the Hippo¬ crates until within the last few years, when Dr. Franklin Miles discovered his Restorative Nervine. This remedy is^hc king of all medicines for the herves. It soothes, quiets and restores. It has cured thousands of cases of convulsions, epilepsy, spasms, fits, St Vitus dance, ects. Mr. ffm. Hearkless of Kennard, Ind., whose portrait we give above says: “I want to express my gratitude for the miraculous benefit I have received from the use of your Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine. I had been affleted with epilepsy Nervine nineteen years in very severe recommended form. An acquaintance, who 1 had used with excellent results, it to me, and purchased a bottle, beginning the only one I have used so far. Its effect lias been wonderful, as, since its use, I have bad but two spells, and those were so light my wife scarcely knew that I had them at all. 1 shall continue the Nervine until completely gratification cured. My general health is now excellent, and 1 sleep well. My over my now assured cine is so great that I can scarcely find words to express it. If my statement can do humanity any good I am mo - A than pleased to give it.” From Forty Spasms a Day to Complete Freedom From Them. Mrs. .T. Gardner, of Vistula, Ind., wrote six years ago: “For eight years I was subject to spasms. Some days I would have 40 to 50 spasms and would remain unconscious for hours and my joints would become stiff. I was long subject to severe headaches, dizziness, backache and palpitation of the heart, and was unfitted for work for many years. After taking one bottle of Dr. Miles’ Nervine a while ago, I was entirely cured of my spasms and greatly im proved in all other respects. This was after having been treated by eight physicians )une 3d 18<J3: without any benefit,.” The same lady writes from Goshen, Ind., ’ > " J havc not > hild a s Pasm since being cured five years ago.” Dr. Miles’ Nervine is not a chance discovery, but the result of 20 years study and careful investigation.

Watts, druggist and physi¬ cian, Humboldt, Nub., who suffered with heart disease for four years, trying every remedy and .all treatments known to him¬ self and fellow-practitioners; believes that heart disease is curable. He writes: “I wish to tell what your valuable medi¬ cine has done for me. For four years I had heart disease of the very worst kind. Sev¬ eral physicians I consulted, said it was Rheumatism of the Heart. It was almost un¬ endurable; with shortness of I; breath, palpita¬ tions, severe pains, unable to j sleep, especially ■ the left side. on Xo pen can de¬ scribe my suffer¬ ings, particularly ■during the last “months of those four weary years. DR. J. H. WATrS, I finally tried Lr. Miles’ New Heart Cure, and was surprised at the result. It put new life into and made, a new man of me. 1 have not had a symptom of trouble since and lam satisfied your medicine has cured me for I have now enjoyed, since taking it Three Years of Splendid Health.
