a DELIBERATE SUICIDE.
After DOnning Clean Linen D Youth Sends q
Bullet Into His Brain

After Downing Clean Linen D Youth Sends q
Bullet Into His Brain.
David Miller, aged twenty one years,
committed suicide at Alaska, Sipton,
county, Tennessee, by shooting himself
through the brain with pistol. The deed
was one of the most deliberate ever COM
mitted. He had been in ill health a num-
ber of years. On the morning mentioned
he took bath, dressed himself neatly,
donning clean linen and underwear gener-
ally, bandaged his neck ar d shoulders with
towels and handkerchiefs, with the inten-
tion of preserving his clothing from the
flow of blood, took a position in front of a
mirror, placed the muzzIe of the pistol to
his head, and sent the ball crashing
through his brain. He was the youngest
in the family of eight boys, and his was
the first death that had occurred in the
family.

The true Democratic policy has been
not to demand the votes of those who do
not subscribe to Democratic principles.
1t has been an honest policy, and it has
preserved the vitality of the party and
made it strong to maintain power when
it reaches it.
The Times may cogitate upon the
course of the Independent Republicans
in refusing to ask a Democratic alliance
and see how the success of ticket may
sometimes be subordinated wisely to
that of a principle.

that he was not candidate for governor,
and that he was for Agnew. Previously
Merrick had displayed considerable lack
of acuteness, and had mado several blum

his disavowal Of his candidacy to indicate
that he fell short of the requirements for
the head of the ticket. There were some

A BRAVE LADY,
she Endures the Pain of a Severe Surgical
Operation without Taking Chloroform.

Mrs. Schoonmake., of Greek Locks, Ulster

the sight OF one of her eyes, through an acct
dent, and endured painful inflammatory ac-
ton therein for two long years; the other eve
finally becoming alphabetically affected.
her general health seriously suffering; indeed
she was mere wreck, walking skeleton.
In this terrible strait she consulted DIR. David
Kennedy of Rondout, n. Y, who told her
at once that the injured eye must be removed.
She quietly but firmly said, "All right, Doc
tor, but don't give me chloroform. Let NV
husband sit by my side during the operation,
aud will neither cry out or stir" The
work was done. and the poor woman kept
her word. Talk of soldierly courage! This
showed greater pluck than it takes to face a
hundred guns. To restore her general health
and give tone and strength to the system, DIR.
Kennedy then gave the "Favorite Remedy"
which cleansed the blood and impaired new
life to the long suffering woman. She rapid.
ly gained health and strength and is now well.
The "Favorite Remedy is a priceless bless
ing to women. No family should be without
it. Your druggist has it. If not. send to

attending school. and on my going home one even
ing my mother thought il best 10 consult a doctor
IN regard TO it, After an examination of my lungs,
he spoke quite discouragnsly of my case, saying
that my lungs seriously affected, and that the
chances for my recovery were not very good. !
soon after attacked with hemonhage, raising
half cup of blood at time. After this had chok-
ing cough which kept me awake almost the whole
night, and also, severe night sweats which weak
ened me SO that was at last confined to my bed
l had no appetite, and had constant pains in my
sides and back, but most severe in my right lung.
My brother was the who first told us about your
medicines, saying that he had heard of a remarka.
bic cure being performed by them. From his re-
commentator concluded to use them. l began
by using the Pulmonic Syrup alone, but was after
wards told that must take the Mandrake Pills and
Seaweed Tonic at the same time. This did that

from my great weakness I was obliged to begin
with smaller doses than you prescribe. 1gradually
gained in strength, however, so that ! was able to
take full doses. My strength increased as the med
icines began to act on my system, and soon my
worst symptoms were gone, my appetite increased,
and this gave me strength to get up and take
