ATTRACTIVE WOMEN.
All woman sensibly desire to be at
tractive. Beauty is the stamp of health
because it is the outward manifestation
of inner purity A healthy woman is al
ways attractive, blight and happy. V hen
every drop of blood in the veins is pure a
(j e ant. K ous flush is on the cheek. But
when the blood is impure, moroseness,
bad temper and a sallow complexion
tells tire tale of sickness, all too plainly.
And women to-day know there fir no
beauty without health. Wine of Cardiff
crowns women witli beauty annrl attrac
tiveness by making strong and healthy
those organs which make her a woman
Try Wine of Caudia, arid in a month
your friends will hardly know yon.

BETTER THAN PILLS.
The question hnsbeen asked, ”lu what
way are Chamberlain’s Stouuche – Liy
er Tablets superior to pills?” Our ans
wer is: They are easier and more
pleasant to take, more mild and gentle in
effect and more reliable as they can al
ways be depended upon Then they
cleanse and invigorate the Btomaehe and
leave the bowels in a natural condition,
while pills are ynore harsh in effect and
their use is oilen foilowed by const.pa

DR. R. 0. COTTER FOUND DEAD.
Barnesville Grt., April 13.—
Barnesvihe was shocked beyond ex
pression today when it was learned
ihat Dr. li. O. Cotter, a prominent
citizen and specialist, had been slid
and had died instantly as a result of
the wound. It occurred at 10.45 o'
clock this morning in his room at the
pome of Mrs. R J. PoWeil near the
. ily limns. It is asseried that bis
death is due to an accident.
The family, were all at. home this
morning and at 11 o,clock Mrs. Cot
ter went to the doctor's room, winch
is on the second floor, and when she
walked in she saw his body lying on
the floor in his dressing roans, by a
pool o( blood. She immediately no
tified the oilier members of the fam
ily and sent for a physician. But
when Col. Cotter a brother, who was
on u visit from Lagrange, reached
ihe body he discovered that lito had
departed.
The room in which the body was
found was Dr. (Jotter's wovn-shoo
Here lie sept Ilia pistols, guns, hunt*
ing and li-bing implements, a table
and various articles id lilts nature,
with which ho frequently buised him
self. It is supposed that lie had been
making an examination id his pistol,
*8 lie always kepi everything in per
iod condition, when it was discharg
ed. The ball, a No, 38, enteretj
about an inch below the right ear
and came <>ut about two .inches
above the ieft ear.
Dr. E C. Ripley, who was calkd
in, gives it as his opinion that, ihe
shot mid the dnetor’s dealh were al
most instantaneous. None of the
family heard the shot, and were hor
rified when the discovery was made,
.vhich evidently was on'y a few Win
nies afterward.
No one knows how the accident
occuied, as Dr. Cotter was the only
one up stairs at the tune
Dr. Cotter was one of Barnesville'g
most prominent citizens and was
widely known throughout the state.
For years li3 was located in Macon,
and as 11 specialist 111 I lie treatment
of the eye, ear and nose be made
qiiiie a reputation, and enjoyed a
large practice.
He married the only daughter of
the late R, J. Powe'l, and wnen Mr
l'owell died in 1892 Dr. Cotier mov
ed to l^i'nasville and look charge of
the Powell estate, becoming prece
dent of the fiurnesyiile Savings Bank.
ilia heal Mi became had several
years ago and he retired iroin busi
ness entirely, and about three years
ago ho made an extensive tour oi
Emope tor the purpose of recupcra
ling, Dr. Cotter was about $5 years
old.
The funeral will occur here tomor
row afternoon.
The people of the entire com m u~
rnty dc eply sympathize will) the dis
tressed family, and hundreds have
visited the home this afternoon and
mingled iheir sorrows with the sor
rowing loyed ones.
