To persons afflicted with piles--no
matter how severe your case-we will
cure you permanently. What is also
very important to the sRferer, we do
this on plan almost painless and
bloodless. No caustics, no knife,
no uncertainty of results. We
believe practice makes perfect.
therefore we believe in specialties. A
man is better qualified for doing full
justice to the afflicted when making a
speciality of a few diseases than in try
ing to grapple with the whole range
of human ills. We treat Piles, Rup-
ture, Fistula, and Varicose Ulcers of
the leg, all on the generous terms of

MENTION, D1arcn D, 1911.
On last Tuesday night, at time
when all honest men ought to have
been at home with their families, en-
ioying the rest that honest labor
during the day is sure to bring,a body
OF masked men, the number being
variously estimated at from fifteen to
forty, claiming to be Kuklux, and
armed with pistols and guns, made a
raid on the negroes in the 10th and
18th districts, causing much conster>
nation. They shot one negro man, IN
the 10Th district, three times, whip
ped two on Maj. Brooks farm, in the
10th district, ran some of, broke open
doors and scared women and children
nearly to death. No effort has been
made yet by our authorities to ascer>
tain who the wretches are. 1t is
thought that some of the negroes have
gone to. Memphis to report TO the
Federal authorities.
Excuse brevity; but word to
" Primus" before we close. Primus :
o Primus! have mercy on us. Do,
Primus, lay that "silken. harness"
aside. Amicus, Aytch, Muggins and
u host of others wore it out long ago.

Apples are still offered for sale on
our streets, and all the apples now
consumed in this market are raised in
Carroll county. Several farmers OF
our acquaintance have put apples up
on the market this winter, but gen.
tleman by the name of Woodard has
eclipsed them all, both in quality Of
fruit and amount sold. Mr. Woodard
informed a gentleman in town a
few days since that he had made
two hundred and fifty dollars
off his orchard so far, and still had
apples to sell. The kind he sells is a
firm, large yellow apple, and very
juicy.
Friday morning last Mr. Sidney
Baucum, a gentleman living four
miles east of here, came to town,
bringing with him his son Sidney,
who is raving maniac, for the pur-
pose of consulting physicians in regard
to his case, and for making applica-
tion TO send his son to the insane
asylum, at Nashville. The physi>
clans here admitted the case was be-
yond their power to remedy, and re-
commended that he be sent to the
asylum. The boy was first placed
in the work-house for safe-keeping,
but that building was not sufficiently
comfortable, and he was placed in the
county Jail. At the end of two days
information was received from Nash
vile, stating that there was no vacaD-
cy from this county, and that conse.
quently Baucom couldn't be admitted
only two being allowed from each
county. Young Baucom was taken
from jail and carried back home by
his distressed father.

Business continues brisk and our
town continues to improve. Hogs
and beef cattle are still coming to
market aud sell readily for fair prices.
More hogs have been sold here during
the past season than for the past ten
wears. Corn also sells for reasona-
BILE price and our people have a good
deal TO sell and a qtdntum su6icit for
home use. In fact, our section is in
better condition than it has been for a
long time. We have no marriages,
deaths, births or other dreadful trans
actions to record, though on dit says
one of our business men will, ere long,
lead one of our most charming bellies

Our people accept the solution of
the Presidential problem, and ofcourse
are not surprised at any rascality OF
which the Rad" are guilty. Grant,
Chandler & Co., backed by such a
horde as Sherman, Morton and their
cohorts are capable of anything how
ever low and mean it may chance to
be, and of Hayes and Wells we may
exclaim par mobile fratrum. The
American people are proud to know
that T'ilden is President and Hayes a
gross and insolvent fraud.
Kenton proposes to have grand
ball shortly and will use every effort
to make it quite an enjoyable occa-
