died of it. In 1889 my case was frightful.
Tumors and ulcers spread until 1872, under
the advice of my physicians 1 went to
Avon Springs. received no benefit-tr1ed
every medicine and did everything could.
I had to rest my arm on a cushion, and
had not been able to raise it to my head
for over a year The discharge from two
ulcers was nearly pint day. Amputa-
ton was recommended; but pronounced
dangerous. 1 could not sleep, and my suf-
ferings were into1erable. a friend brought
me an English physician who applied
saIve with which he said he had accom-
plished extraordinary cures in,the ,hospi-
tails in England. 1t commenced to relieve;
I persisted In its use i it ihnally effected
perfect and entire cure. 1t is now 1913. 1t

Having lived neighbors to DIR, r. "A,
Armistead, in Trigg county, KY, for some
ten or twelve years, we take pleasure In
saying, that, as a Physician, he stood high,
and enjoyed large practice; whilst, as a
gentleman, in. bearing, and man of hon.
or in the strictest sense of those terms no
man maintained a more enviable reputa-
ton. In word. he lived among us with

for holding an election under the re-
construction programme Of Congress,
has been sounded and very soon will be

Three persons viii be selected for each

A REMARKABLE RELIC were shown

A REMARKABLE REIrc.-We were shown
yesterday relic Of the late war which is,
perhaps, the most rare and curious to be
found. It consists Of two bullets. one
fred from the Confederate and the other
from the Federal lines, which met 90 full
as to be mashed fat, the one into the
the one into the other. Being the conical
shaped Minnie balls, they must have met
on precisely the same line Of axis, and
both being mashed equally Eat, they must
have been going with the same velocity.
Such an amicable meeting between such
deadly missiles from opposing forces would
hardly take place in ten millions Of times.
The balls were picked up between the
picket lines in front Of Petersburg. 4 Rich

his appearance, never troubling herself to
ask any questions, until the boat was well
on her way over the Lake, when, as her

thing about Biloxi, and was informed that
there were two Lauras, the one she was

to Biloxi. The Captain paid her every
attention, and made the trip as pleasant
as was in his power, and she returned
home on Sunday. Mr.. P. went to his bus
mess, and was much surprised at being
stopped at least half q dozen times on the
way from the Post Office, by friends, that
he thought knew nothing Of the affair, but
