ANOTHER RESCUE FROM DEATH-1n 1881
while sewing on machine, my wife was
taken with severe pain in her side, which
was soon followed by hemorrhages from
her lungs, severe cough, fever, and she
could neither eat or sleep, and in few
weeks she was reduced to living skeleton.
Her stomach refused to retain any food, and
the physician thought one of her lungs was
entirely gone. At final consultation of
two physicians her case was pronounced
hopeless. l tried Brewers Lung Restorer
by advice of one of the physicians, and she
began to improve after the third dose. She
continued the medicine, and is now in e1-
cellent health, and is better than she has
been in several years. believe Brewers

On Wednesday morning hfteen persons
appeared before the Session of the Pres
byterIan Church and expressed desire
to become members. The meetings are
likely to continue throughout the week.
Mr.. John R. Moore, eldest son of Mr..
Willis Moore, Of Garvin township, died
on Wednesday afternoon of last week
after an illness of about six hours. He
arose apparently in his usual health that
morning and, after eating hearty break
fast, went to plowing in the field. About
9 or 10 o'clock his horse was noticed
dragging the plow around and eating
grass. This attracted attention, and as
Mr.. Moore did not resume his work,
some one went to see what was the mat
ter, and found him lying under the shade
of tree near by speechless. He was car
ried to the house and physician sum-
moned to administer to him, but it was
too late, for he was beyond the reach OF
human aid. His disease was pronounced
Inflammation Of the brain and stomach.
Mr.. Moore was about twenty-five years
old, and was highly esteemed and respect
ed by all who knew him. His remains
were inferred at Six.and-Twenty Church
on the day following his death.
Mr.. D. Burford, former resident Of
this County, but now residing on Broad
River, in Elbert County, Ga, has sent US
lot of Indian relics and bones, which
were unearthed by the recent heavy
freshets on that river. The water on this
stream this Summer was higher than it
was ever known before, and for miles on
both sides the dirt for several feet deep
was washed away, leaving all Indian
burying ground exposed to view. No
one in that section knew anything about
the graves being there, for the land has
been in cultivation for years. 1t Is sup
posed the Indians used it as burying
ground years before that country was
populated by white people, and that the
valley has gradually filed up, which 80
completely covered every trace of che
graves that the plows, in cultivatlng the
soil, did not unearth any of the bones.
Mr.. Burford says, from the appearance of
the many bones scattered over the ground,
there must have been several hundred
Indians buried there. Some Of the bones

least damp. AS nearly all the wheat in
this section was In tho field during the
late rains, the experiment is well worth
trying.
Edgar, a little son Of Mr.. G. w. Far
mer, Of Fork township, fell from cree,
while gathering fruit last Thursday and
fractured his skull in two or three places.
At last accounts the little fellow was doing
as well as could be expected, but it is
feared that his injuries will prove fatal.
We are requested to announce that the
celebration Of "Children's Day" at Trini-
ty Church has been postponed one month.
This change was found necessary OH ac-
count Of Sandy Springs Church having
an appointment for similar occasion on
the same day that Trinity had in view.
Mr.. 8. N. Carpenter, editor Of the Ell
berton (Ga.) Ne,u South, called on US last
Thursday. Mr.. Carpenter is a native OF
Anderson County. and at one time was
an employee in the eINTELL1aENcER Office.
It has been nine years since he visited

more of him during his stay III our

approaching storm he crept into hollow
log. After the storm abated he attempted
/. to crawl out, br- fourd that the log had

himself as much as possible, but without
success. He thought Of all the mean
things he had ever done, until finally
his mind reverted to the fact that instead
of subscribing and paying for his County

it from his neighbor. Then he felt so
small that he slipped out of the log with

Bones on the Farm.

A solution of potash will reduce bone
to fine condition and make it availa-.
BILE for plant TODD. Most farmers will
use wood for fuel, and the ashes from
tho fifteen or twenty cords used in
year, if saved, would reduce all the
bones ordinarily within reach of the
farmer. The old-fashioned leach that
used to stand at almost every farmers
back door for soap-making, was
good contrivance for reducing the
bones. But any tight, strong cask or
box will answer quite as well for this
purpose. Water poured upon the ashes
makes a lye, or solution of potash,
strong enough to decompose the bones.
The casks should stand under cover, so
that the quantity of water applied to
the bone and ashes may be under con-
troll. The time it will take to reduce
the hone to a powder will depend upon
the amount Of potash in the ashes and
attention bestowed upon the process. 1t
is essential that the ashes and bone
should be closely packed in the mass,
and that they be kept in moist state,
adding water as it evaporates from the
surface. The finer the bone before it
is packed in the ashes the sooner
will it be reduced. The process can be
hastened by putting into the mass few
pounds of common potash. But this is
only necessary to save tine. Ashes
from hickory, or any of the hard woods.
contain sufficient potash to decompose
the bone. When the mass is soft enough
to break down with spade or shovel,
it can be mixed with land plaster, dried
peat, or loan, to make it convenient
| for handling. 1t is concentrated fer
tilizer, to be used with discretion in the
hill, or applied as top-dressing to
growing crops in the garden or field.
| We are quite sure that any one who
uses this preparation of bone and wood
ashes, and sees the vigorous push it
gives to garden and other crops, will be
likely to continue it. But many farmers
near sea-ports andrailroad stations, use
coal mainly for fuel. and will have to
resort to a hand or horse-mill to use up
the waste bones. Small mills are ex-
tensively used by poultry men for crush
ing oyster shells as well as bone, and
the machinery can be adjusted to break
the bone coarsely for hen feed. The
oil and gelatine of the bones have an
alimentary value, and, turned into eggs,
pay much better than when used as a
fertilizer for the soil,-Wn. Cyt, IN
