One Who Knows.

The following testimonial is from a
gentleman who knows our formula and
is thoroughly acquainted with the cura-
tive property of our Tonic. The way to
know the merits is to try the article.
Any practicing physician who desires
the formula of DR.. Westmoreland's Cali
saya Tonic may obtain it from the West
moreland Calisaya Tonic Company
Greenville, S. G. This letter is from a
malarial section.
WEST POINT, MISS.
Having shown me the formula for
making your Tonic while visiting your
City the past summer, take great
pleasure in recommending it. l am de-
lighted wish it, having given it in my
practice successfully, and to members OF
my own family suffering from malarial
teXamia.
Very truly,

Trial of a suit against the Mutual Re.
serve Fund Life Insurance Association
brought by the widow of Henry Z Lincoln,
of Brockton, Mass, was begun yesterday
in the United States Circuit court She
seeks to recover $40 900 on her husband 8
policy. The company alleges suicide as
the cause of Lincoln's death, while the
plaintiff claims he was murdered.-N. Y.
World, April IS, 1889.
In the above case the jury failed to agree,
they standing nine to three for the plain
tiff. We do not know the facts In the above
case, but it is safe to presume that if Mr..
Lincoln had been insured in the EQU1TA-
BILE LIFE, the claim would have been paid
ere this, without putting the widow to
the expense of litigation.-Detroit Indica-
tor.

Invest Small Savings.

Two of the most powerful factors in
the building up of any community are
building associations aud savings banks.
The one permits the erection of homes
by the working classes which could not
otherwise be readily secured, and the
other enables the moderately circum-
stanced TO lay by small amounts which ul.
timately reach considerable proportions
There is no doubt that the foundation of
the thrift of the working people of New
England is the savings banks deposits
made in that section. We should be glad
to see savings bank and a building
association established in every South-
ern town. Such organizations would
have the effect of combining local capi-
tai, and could not but prove beneficial
We would urge our Southern friends,
therefore. to pool their savings and in,
vest them in home enterprises
more Manufacturers Record.
Grenada has building and loan asso.
citation which for the past few years has
been instrumental in doing great good
in the way OF building houses and max
ing other improvements. but we believe
much more good would have been ac-
complished had the officers of the asso-
citation published regular statements of
their dolngs for the benefit of the public,
and especially the stockholders. We
say that these statements should be pub
lished because we have heard various
parties interested remark that they we're
unadvised as to the condition of the
association, consequently would lose
interest, get discouraged and sell their
stock often for less than it was worth.
We say this not to disparage the associa.
tion, because we believe it to be in a
sound and healthy condition, but If said
statements be given, fewer would sell
their stock, while great many more
would be induced to take stock, which
would result in accomplishing still great
er purposes for our town. While it was
intended that each individual interested
should receive a fair interest on his
money, 1t should be cosmopolitan enough
to embrace the interest OF the whole
town, and get as many stock holders in
it as possible. In one sense it is vir-
tually savings bank, and the more
people interested in ID the better it will
be for the town.
Since the above was in type we have
received a notice of the Building and
Loan Association from Mr.. j. W.
Mcleod, Secretary, which is published
elsewhere. We hope that at the meet>
ing called for full and satisfactory
statement of the condition of the Asso-
citation will be given, and that every
stock-holder will be present.

We call especial attention to all of the
citizens of Grenada to the sanitary notice
elsewhere headed "clean up your prem
ises." This is no mere matter of form,
but we are thoroughly satisfied that the
Mayor means exactly what he says, and
will carry out the ordinance to the strict
est letter of the law We are informed
that there will be an inspection from
house to house by the police officers, and
all parties failing to comply will be ar
rested and dealt with. Cleanliness is
said to be next to Godliness," and we
cannot see why this does not apply to
communities as we'll as to individuals.
This is matter Of vital Importance to
our people, and one and all should pay
strict attention to all sanitary measures,
without being forced. Without the
proper moral sentiment to back up the
law, officers are almost powerless for
good. So clean up and let us be able to
boast OF the cleanest town in the State.

TO THE PUBLIC.

My association with Mr.. j. w.
Buchanan and the SENTINEL has been SO
long and confidential that nothing but a
stern sense of duty to myself could have
prompted me to interrupt the pleasant
relations between us. At best we are
all the creatures OF circumstances, miss
ing opportunities that we do not get to-
morrow, and seizing chances that we re-
gret in a week But this is part of our
uncertain destiny, and the man who
would accept the present to be un-
changable, could easily circumscribe
what he is to be. The battle OF life is
never ended until we have counted the
last mle-post of its eventful journey.
To do what is best for our own interest
without impinging that of others, is the
duty OF every man, no matter how old,
or no matter how often he has failed.
Therefore, in saying goodbye to the
SENTINEL, | leave with its many readers,
and its intelligent and worthy young
editor and proprietor, the best wishes of
their old friend,
May 20, 1889. u. WILLIAMS.
In leaving the SENTINEL Col. J. J..
Williams connects himself with our
neighbor, the Gazette, as associate edi-
tor. Our relations have been long and
pleasant, and we part company with
Col. Williams with the kindest feelings,
and with abundant good wishes for suc
cess in his new field as we'll as through
life. He is too we'll and favorably
known as a graceful and forcible writer,
to need any words of recommendation
at our hands. We desire in taking leave
OF him to return our sincere thanks not
only for his kind wishes and generous
remarks of ourself and the SENTINEL, at
we'll as its readers, but for the able assis,
tance he has rendered us while in our
employ. We shall endeavor to pre-
serve the most cordial relations with the
Gazette and its new management. The
SENTINEL in the future as in the past,
will be devoted to the up-building of the
best and most material interests of our
town and county, and will contain the
latest news both local and general. Its
tone will be elevated, moral, dignifed
and progressive, and we will leave to a
generous public to show their apprecia-
ton OF our efforts, and trust that there
will be no cause for diminution of the
generous and highly appreciated pat
ronage that we have heretofore received.
Excelsior is still upon our banner, and
we assure our readers that we will take
no steps backward nor will we lower our
standard Of excellence, but will continue
to 60 forward from this time in an on
ward and upward course.
