DIED-At her home near TarltOn,
Tenn, on the morning of the 10th of
February, 1885, Mrs. Sarah E. Barnes,
aged q years, months and % days.
Again the dusky wing of death has
darkened the door of once happy
home, and another soul of worth has
taken its flight to the realms of bliss.
This victim of the fell destroyer was
born August 18th, 1868, in the same
house in which she died, and was
the second daughter of Rev. +. NJ.
and Mrs. Martha II. Walker. In
her youth she was kind and gentle
in disposition, and anxious to add to
the "sum of human joy" and in ma
turer years, she ever had a kind word
Tor all, and seemed best pleased when
making others happy. Her life in
all its relations was singularly pure,
winning and lOveable. She rever-
enced her parents, and always rem
dered them a cheerful obedience.
True and devoted, it was at the fami-
ly hearthstOne that she shone most
resplendent. There, with the Joys of
early life, and with feelings full of
tenderness, her "days were all sunny
and her months were all June"
Born Of Christian parents, her con-
victiOns were formed in early years,
and strengthened with her growth.
She embraced hope in Christ at the
age Of "A years, and from that time
till her death, hers was a life of reli-
gious fervor. Her faith was implicit
and sublime. She knew her God as
surely as she knew the tranquil
beauty of the stars or the meridian
splendor of the sun. The work of
the church and of the Sabbath-school
was to her labor of love.
In the summer Of 1877 she identi-
ned herself with the Baptist church
at Philadelphia, of which her father
was pastor for many years, and OF
which she lived a faithful and consist
ent member until her sad demise. In
the recent distractions which have
rent her church to pieces, she never
faltered in her convictions of right,
and never swerved from her print
tive faith, but remained firm and
true to the original principles upon
which her church was founded.
On the 9Th Of October, 1882, she
was united in marriage to n. b.
Barnes, of Warren county, Tenn,
with whom she lived most happily
until her untimely death. Her ten.
derness and unselfish love for hel
true and faithful husband grew into
cOnjugal idOlatry, and her absolute
devotion to him marked every word
and act of her life. Immediately
after their marriage they pledged
each other that they would, through
Iife's weary journey together, sedu
ously avoid any word or act thai
would mar each others happiness o.
give the least ofense; and we have

A GANG OF CUT-THROATS.
AN ATLANTA FIRM CAUSES
A BIG SENSATION.
CowHIDEs IN THE AIR.


The recent excitement incident to
the unparalleled rush for a noted
blood purifier, in Atlanta, is hardly
on the wane. One of the more osten-
tations druggists recently bought up
large lot of a celebrated remedy,
and
MADE A CUT
on the former retail price. One of
his modes of advertising this fact was
to stand boys in front of opposition
drug stores distributing advertising
matter. This so harrassed one drug
gist that he approached his opponent
and said, eff you don't stop that boy,
you or l will get cowhiding." An
other druggist, not to be outdone,
made a
STILL LOWER CUT,
and for several days had force of
boys parading the streets with ban
ners, bearing the inscription, in bold
letters, B. b. B.
This novel proceeding evoked much
comment, and is the first instance of
patent medicine creating a uniYer-
sal commotion among druggists, on
record which, however, only seems
to show the
GREAT POPULARITY OF BOTANIC
BLOOD BALM.
Within the last six months the de-
mand for this remedy has been Won
derful, a number of druggists retail
ing as much as three dozen bottles in
one day. AT present some buy it in
3 gross lots, some 3 and Others 1 gross
at time. The Blood Balm Co. re-
Gently made a contract with j. w.
Holman, of Denver, Colorado, for the
sale of
$780, 100000 WORTH OF b. b. b.
This is the largest contract of the
kind ever made in the United States
to one house. The proprietors of B.
b. b. have no hand in this cut rate
war among the trade, and only re-
greet that the druggists should become
angry in their endeavOrs to catch the
largest trade in the sale of B. B. b.,
which has of late become so heavy
and universal in Atlanta. No one
will doubt the heavy demand, when
aware of the fact that B. B. B. is the
first and only blood purifier that
MAKES CURES QUICKLY AND CHEAP
of all forms and stages Of blood
poisOns, scrofula, skin diseases, kid
ney troubles, etc, etc. Many cases
are cured with single bottle, and if
the public desires further and more
direct information on the subject, a
postal card directed to Blood Balm
Co., Atlanta, Ga, will secure valua-
BILE book, free.
