Everybody uses "Barret's."

E& 1t becomes our painful
duty to announce the'death of an
estimable citizen. Mr.. JOEL CON-
MONS died at his residence in this
place, of pneumonia, on Monday
last, aged Is years. He was one
of the pioneers ofthis county, hav-
ing resided here nearly fifty years /;
and during the whole of that time
was known as a kind hearted, hos.
pitable, honest man. We knew
him well, and in common with the
whole community regret his death.
He was recognized as a good man,
and possessed the confidence Of
this community in an unlimited
degree. To his immediate family
he was devoted and selfsacri6cing.
We believe he is now receiving
the reward of a welI-spent life.

'Barrett's" Great Hair Restorative.

E@- A distressing accident hap
pened abont three miles South of
this place on Wednesday of last
week. A dozen. or more neigh
bors were engaged in log-roiling-
clearing land. The day was win
dy, causing a dead hickory to snap
of about thirty feet from the
ground, and being very heavy and
the wind strong, it came down
with great rapidity. Hearing the
breaking, each man near to the
tree sprang to save himself, and
all succeeded, without material
injury; except Mr.. Hudson Routt.
A limb struck him, breaking his
limbs and crushing his skull, caus.
ing instantaneous death. The de-
ceased was a quiet, uDassuming
young map, liked by all who knew
him.

Another Good Man Gone.


Died. of pneumonia, at his residence in
Fayetteville about o'clock P. NJ, NJ onday,
the 21st inst, in the presence of his wife,
children, grand children, friends and ac-
ouaintances. Mr. JOEL COMMONS, in the
seventy ninth year of his age. His last
illness was but few days duration, WHICH
he bore with Christian fortitude and resig-
nation.
Mr.. Commons was born in Orange county,
North Carolina November Both, 1871. In
1915, he removed to this (Lincolu) county.
He married here in January, 1917, the wife
who survives him to mourn his loss, to her
irreparabe.
Mr.. Commons was reared and educated
in the faith and doctrines of the Quakers or
Friends, which he never renounced or a
postatised from. Though in his separation
or rather isolation from the society of his
choice, he favored the regular old Baptists
more than any other branch of the church,
although not a recognized member of any
church, many who are, could have mended
their lives by adopting him as their model
and exemplar
He was kind, an affectionate and indul-
gent husband and father, and obligingneigh
Dor.
Mr.. Commons was blacksmith by trade
and assiduously followed his vocation from
his emigration to the county, in this place
until his demise, with the exception of a
few years he resided in the neighborhood,
on farm. A worthy, upright, true and
reliable citizen. He was emphatically good
man. He had many friends, but, no enc
mics, and was striking evidence of the
truth of what the poet wrote, ''An honest
man is the noblest work of God" Respect
and peace to his memory.

The Season and its Daupers.


The human body is chiefly composed Of
tissues sand fbres as sensitive to every change
in the condition. of the atmosphere as the
most delicate electrometer, or the quicksilver
in barometer tube.
|, The stomach, the skin, the nerves, the lungs,
and the excretory organs are especially liable
to be affected by these variations, and the
best defence against their disastrous tenden-
|cy is to keep the digestive machinery, which
feeds and nourishes the whole system, in
good working order
If the stomach is weak or disordered nei-
Their the blood nor the bile can be in heal
thy state, and upon the fitness of these two
Important fluids for the offices assigned to
them by nature, and the regularity Of their
flow, health in great measure depends.
When the air is heavily laden with chilling
vapors, as it often is at this season of the
year, the digestion should be an object of
peculiar care. If it is weak and languid, the
whole physical structure will be eneryated.
If lit is vigorous, the entire organization
will be strong to resist the untoward and de-
pressing influence of damp and vitiated
atmosphere.
A pure and powerful tonic is therefore es-
pecially needed as safeguard against the
diseases most common in the spring, and
Hostetters Stomach Bitters being the most
wholesome and potent medicine Of the class

ly advisable at this period of the year. The
stomach will thereby'be toned and strength
ened, the liver and bowels. regulated, the ner-
vous system braeed up and nature put in a
state of active defence against the miasma
which superinduces intermittent and remit
tent fevers, rheumatisms, nervous debility
neutrality-suspicious. and other complaints
which are apt to assail the nntoned and un-
fortified organizations. The body is strength
ened without exciting the brain, and conse-
quently no unpleasant reaction follows Its
reviving and ren0vating operation.

History Of Stoves.

Stoves. are comparatively of re-
cent general use, though they
were in this country as early as
17l9 In that year Mr.. Petit
bone, Of Philadelphia, was grant,
ed a patent for stove, which was
claimed to be capable of warming
houses by pure heated air. Petit
bones stove was soon after put in
the almshouse at Philadelphia, and
Drs. James and Chapman, and sew
eral members of Congress, gave
testimony of its utility for warm
ing and ventilating churches,
corrts of justice, hospitals, man.
ufactories, etc. This probably
was the first attempt to use stoves,
at least in this country.
From this time forward for ma
ny years, the stove was confined
to public places, its use for warm
ing private houses or for cooking
purposes not having been thought
of. The long box stove, capable
OF taking three foot wood was the
only stove our ancestors knew any
thing about.
The FIRST advance toward a cook
ing stove was making the Frank.
lin stove with an oven |; and the
first that deserves the name of
cooking stove was an oblong af
fair, having an oven running the
whole length, the door of which
was i'll front, and directly over the
door for supplying fuel, and hav-
ing also a boiler on the back part
Of the top near the pipe. But
modern ingenuity has perfected
the stove to such a degree that it
has become an essential article of
household use. Numerous large
manufactures are now in this
country. prominent among which
is the very extensive establish
ment, known as the Excelsior
Manufacturing Company, at St.
Louis, Mo. 1t is one of the lar
gest, and their work is the most
sought for. T. J. Gray & Co..
will order a Chart er Oak Stove for
any person desiring it.

The Relief which it affords is both ceFtdiR

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER.
Persons unacquainted with the structure
and functions of the Kidneys cannot esti-
mate the importance of their healthy ac-
ton.
Regular and sufficient action of the Kid
neys is, as important, nay, even more so,
than regularity of the bowels. The Kid
neys remove from the Blood those efete
matters whichif permitted to remain, would
speedily destroy life. A total suspension
of the urinary discharges viii occasion deSh
from thirty-six to forty eight hours.
When the Urine is Voided in small qUan-
titles at the time or when there is a dispe ST.
ton to Urinate more frequently than nA.u-
raj, or when the Urine is high coiored OF
scalding VITA weakness in the small Of the
back, 1t should noe be trified with or dc-

to remedy the difficulty, before lesion OF
the organs take place Most Of tilediseases
of the Bladder originate from those of the
Kidneys, the Urine being impeTfectly Sc
GREETED in the Kidneys, prove irritating 70
the Bladder and Urinary passages. When
we reeolleet that medicine never reaches
the Kidneys except through the general cir
culstion of the Blood, we see how necessa-
~ it is to keep the Fountain of Life Pure.

DISEASES OFTHEBLoO

THE life Of the flesh is the Blood" is
Scriptural maxim that science proves TO be
true. The people talk of bad blood, as the
cause.of many diseases, and like many pop
ular opinions this Of bad blood Is founded
in truth.
The symptoms Of bad blood are usually
quite plain-bad Digestion-causes imper-
feet nutrition, and consequently the circu-
lation is feeble, the soft tissues loose
their tone and elasticity. and the tongue
becomes, pale broad, and frequently Gov
cred with pasty, white coat. This condi-
ton soon shows itself in roughaess Of the
skin, then in ERUPTIvE and LUCRATIVE dis
eases, and when long continued, reslts in
serious LESSONS Of the Brain. Liver, Lungs. OF
urinary apparatus. Much, very much,
suffering is caused by impure blood, 1t is
estimated by some that One-fifth of the hu-
man family are affected with serOfula in
some form.
When the Blood is pure, you are not so
liable to any disease. Many impurities Of
the Blood arise from impure diseases of
large cities. Eradicate every impurity from
the fountain Of life, and good spirits. fair
skin and vital strength will return tOyOu.
