The funeral services of Mr. J
N. Wimpee, who died so sud
denly Saturday evening at the
home of his eon-in-law, Mr
Emmett Barfield, in East Rome,
was conducted with Masonic
honors from Antioc church,near
East Rome this morning at' 10
o’clock.
Mr. Wimpee, at the time of
his death , was 73 years old.
He moved to Cedartown sev
eral months ogo and was here
on a visit to his daughter, Mrs.
Barfield.
Saturday he returned from a
short trip io the country, and
complained of having a pain at
his heart, and started toward a
chair to sit down. Before reach
ing the chair he fell. He was
picked up by his wife and daugh
ter and placed on the bed and
expired in a few minutes.
The deceased was twice mar
ried and leaves thiee children
bv his first wife and seven by
his second, to mourn his death.
Despite the presence in Paris
of the splendiferous Depew,with
his honeyed words for the
French, ammunition continues
to be furnished the Spaniards
from the French side of the Pyr
enees.
With her sailor hat and mili
tary belt the summer girl seems
determined to keep on the good
side of both branches of the ser
vice. —A meric us Tim es- Record -

Rheumatism
Is a blood disease and only a blood reme
dy can cure it. So many people make
the mistake of taking remedies which
at best are only tonics and cannot possi
bly reach their trouble. Mr. Asa Smith,
Greencastle, Indiana, says: “For years
I have suffered with Sciatic Rheuma
tism, which the best physicians were un
able to relieve. I took many patent
medicines but they did not seem to
reach my trouble. I gradually grew
worse until I was un
able to take my food
I” or handle myself in
any way; I was abao-
V j, * lately helpless. Three
bottles of S.S.S. re
l’eved me so that I
f®?/' i vas soon able to move
my right arm; before
long I could walk
across the room, and
when I had finished one dozen bottles
was cured completely and am as well as
aver. I now weigh 170.”
A Real Blood Remedy.
S.S.S. cures Scrofula, Cancer, Eczema,
and any form of blood troubles. If you
have a blood disease, take a blood medi
cine—S.S.S. {guai anteed purely vegeta
table') is exclusively for the blood and
is recommended for nothing else. It

BILL ARP
Compares the Honesty of the
Volontee. With the
DISHONEST regulars.
A Word About a “Bightlng pig”
That Maj- Ayer Paid for.
In yesterday’s Constitution
Bill Arp has this to say about
war times and war and the men
who composed tl e armies that
did the fighting:
‘•War! Yes. war with all its
pomp and glory. Chicamauga
is in Walker county, and Walk
er county is begging for martial
law. It is history repeating itself.
These United States regulars
are, as a general rule, the scum
of all nations. When a vagabond
gets here he is enlisted, for he
can find nothing else to do and
joins the machine.
He had no moral principal at
home and has none here. Wheth
er white or black the regulars
are a set of brutes. We found
that out curing the last war and
they are the same now. What do
they care about subduing Spain
or relieving the starving Cu
bans’ They will rob and rape
and steal whenever and wherev
er they get a chance, and our
poor fools call them patriots.
Our Southern soldiers did not
do those things. I know they
did not. They had regard for
the rights of m»n and respect
for woman kind. I remember
when Col. Barton called his reg
iment, the Eighth Georgia to
dress parade at Winchester and
told them that an old man who
lived near our camp had been
robbed of his honev, ai.d resti
tution must be made him.
“He said: ‘I thought that 1
had the honor to command a
regiment ccmposed cf the best
blood of Georgia and I think so
still, but last nigh) some sol
diers from this camp robbed a
poor old man of his honey—ten
hives of virgin honey that he
was saving to sell and with the
money to buy some clothes for
his family.
‘1 do not wish to know who
did this wrongful and uusol
dierly act, but desire that all
who are willing to make restitu
tion to him advance six paces to
thejfront.’ ” The whole regiment
advanced and the money taken
up along the line amounted to
$75. Fifty dollars was paid to
t ie old man and the rest put in
the hospital fund.
“I do not recall another case
of pillage or wrong doing. One
of my messmates killed a pig at
Orange Court house and I never
enjoyed roast pig in all my life
as I did that.
It was a small, plump Berkshire
that nosed around the boxes where
we fed our horses and my mess
mate declared the pig tried to bile
him and he shot him. The owner
lived on a hill nearby and cam*
around bunting for his pig and
somebody told him that our mess
i had shoat for dinner day before
| yesterday.
We referred him to our cook,
old uncle Bob, who pretended to
get fighting mad and lied out of it.
But before we left. Major Ayer,
the quartermaster, went up and
paid the man for his pig. He was a
[Union man and used cusswords on
us, but he took the confederate
money. This was the only biting
pig we came across in Virginia.

soldiers. Between the privates and

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is duanot only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

where. They meandered all over
th is part of Georgia during the
war and did not leave a biting p’g
nor even a razorhack in Bartow
county.
The other day I saw a yenng
man in Atlanta who had come
down from Marietta to enlist He
was seventeen years old and the
down cn his face hud not turned
to beard. An elderly mtn who
knew his folks was trying to p-r
--suade him to go back and comfort
his mother, who was in great
distress and the boy was troubled
o i hei account, but he said he was
going into the army to help her
more than for anything else, for
he said. “Gentlemen, I ain’t ge'-
tin’ but $lO a month and have to
buy my clothes and that don't
leave hardly anything for mother.
But I can get sls in the army and
they feed me and clothe and I
can send mother $lO ur sl2 every
month. I don’t care a doggone
about 'he Cubans or -he Spaniards,
but if they should kill me, why,
then, mother will get a pension, I
reckon. ”
I did not stay to learn wlitther
he went back home or forward to
the war. But there was no patriot
ism in the venture and that is the
case with most everyone who en
lists. I wonder what will come of
it? Bil . Akp.
