From Rev. O. c. Rankin Of Hoiston con.ssSDee.
Severe Case Of Sick Headache.
Messrs. Landrun & Litchfeid.
abingdon. Virginia.,


My wife has suffered for several years,
at intervals OF FIVE and six weeks, with
tsinful attacks of sick headache. She tried
the usual remedies, with nothing more than
temporary relief, II that. The attacks
would return at tho regular time, as usual.
Her s"fIering would be Of such char
scter ss to excite my appreciation. Having
read the certificate OF Bishop G. T. Pierce,
recommending the Seven Springs Iron and
Alum Mass" as an efficient remedy for such
complaints, she at onte commenced the use
Of it, and in her case the happicst results
have been realized. Wien used according
to directions she never experiences a symp-
tom Of the headache. I am confident a per-
manent cure OF this disease can be effected
by the use Of this medicine.
Mrs. Rankin says she cannot overcsti-
mate the value Of the Mass in her case, and
would advise everybody who suffers as abe
did to use II. u. y. RANKIN.

Fine House Painting.

1t is always pleasure to us TO be able 10
commend the work of good mechanic or art-
san, and we never neglect an opportunity when
ever we feel justified in doing so. In nothing
can there be more deception praciicei and nfe-
ri"r work covered up thar in House Painting,
as such work on many of The houses in Union
gives unmistakable proof. Cheap material and
bad work in painting house is the worst kind
of economy and soon shows. We are led TO
these remarks by the superior painting upon
MIR. 4. II. Stokes house, on Main Street, by
Mr.. J. W. Miller which we think is one of the
very best jobs in town. The colors on the out
side show great taste and are honestly put on.
while the walnut and oak graining on the wool
work of the inside proves Mr.. Miller to be n
fist class workman We doubt much if better
work can be found in the largest cities. and we
believe it will stand the test of time.

longed were invited TO the funeral. His remains
were buried this afternoon. Gen. Hood had
eleven children, the eldest ten years and the
youngest, twins, three weeks old His physical
condition had been bad for some time past

naucial rcverscs and the terrible blow he re
ceived in the death of his wife. The General
leaves manuscript history of the war which he
intended to have published this fall. or the

Another Beautiful Floral Gift.

Again we acknowledge the receipt of the most

our eyes ever rested on. They came from the
garden of that venerable devotce to Horticulture,
Mrs. Nj. l. Clarke, than whom no one in this
State has n finer taste for and knows better how
to cultivate flowers. In her declining years it
can well be said "she lives among the roses"
Her fine collection Of Roses came from the or eat
Rose Garden of Messrs Dingee & Conard, of
West Grove, CAeste: County. Pennsylvania
These gentlemen have for years made specially
Of cultivaiing Roses, and their collection COM

beautiful and their fragrance filled the whole
house. If you want the very finest Roses, send
to Dingce & Conard.
