WIN, E. RUSSELL DEAD
Found Lifpless in his Fishing
Tent at Adelaide, Canada,
Yesterday.

Quebec, July 16.-EX-Gov-
ernor Russell OF Massachusetts
was found dead this morning
camp at Adelaide, near Grand
Pabos, Quebec.
Governor Russell passed
through Montreal in the best
of health, en- route to the sal
mon grounds in Uaspe' The
particulars of his death are
meager, Grand Pabos, the
nearest telegraph station to ST.
Adelaide, is Il little fishing
place of only 300 Inhabitants,
aud there are very few facil
tiles for getting more explicit
information at present. 1t ap
pears that this morning the
guides found that he slept long
en- than usual, and when they
went 10 wake him up it was
found that he was dead. 1t is
suppose that he died of heart
disease.
1t appears that the people
who accompanied Governor
Russell were his brother and
F. H. Peabody, from Boston.
Their camp was near the Little
Pabos river, where they bad
been fishing all day yesterday,
when the eX governor seemed
in the very best of health. The
tent in which they slep: was
divided into two compartments,
and as the ex governor slept
alone the others never knew he
was dead until late this morn
ing, when they thought it was
time to wake him up. The
coroner has beenSnotified, but

PURELY


containing those Southern Roots and Herbs
which an all-wise Providence has placed in
countries where Liver Diseases most prevail.
Il will cure all Diseases caused by Derange-
ment of the Liver and Bowels.
The SYMPTOMS Of Liver Complaint are q
bitter or bad taste in the mouth; Pain in the
Back, Sides or Joints, often mistaken tor tSheu-
natisnl; Sour Stomach, Loss of Appstitei
Bowels alternately coslive and lax; Headachei
Loss of Memory, with a painful sensation OF
having failed 70 do something which ought to
have been done; Debility; Low Spirits, d thick
yellow appearance Of the Skin and Eyes, L dry
Cough often mistaken for Consumption.
Sometimes many OF these symptoms attend
the disease, MT others very few; but the LIVER
is generally the seat of the disease, and if not
Regulated in time, great suffering, wretched-
ness and A will ensue.
The following highly esteemed persons attest
to the virtues of Simmons Liver Regulator;
Gen. W.. S. Holt, Pres. Gu S. W. K. r. Co; Rev.
J. X. Fielder, Perry, Ga; Col. +. X. Sparks, Al
bany, Ga; {. Masterson, ESa., Sheriff Bibb Co,
Ga; Hon. Alexander II. Stephens.
I'VE have tested its virtues, personally, and
know that for Dyspepsia, Biliousness and
Throbbiug Headache il is the best medicine the
world ever saw. We tried forty other remedies
before Simmons Liver Regulator, but none gave
us more than temporary relief but the Regu-
lator not only relieved, but cured us.'-Ep.

MUD WASHES.


Society Girls Have New Scheme for
Identifying Themselves.
The old proverb that there is moth
ing that has not some use in the world
if only we knew what it was has been
verified again. This time the discov-
erer was the girl who has returned
from her outing at the seashore or in
the mountains. The bugaboo of the
summer girls season is the tan which
she brings back to the city with her.
1t interferes with her wearing of even
ing gowns. And she will go to almost
any extreme to accomplish that result
in hurry. The latest wrinkle Of the
city girl Is mud Plain, dirty, sticky
mud. The idea is by no means new,
but it is the first time that society has
as a whole accepted it as skin beau
tifier. Swamp mud or the mud from
the bed Of a stream is the best. The
skin should be thoroughly cleansed
and dried until the skin feels warm
and perspiration has started. Then
apply the mud thickly, taking care to
keep it from the eyes. 1t is especially
necessary that care be taken to cover
all portions Of the skin alike, as the
smallest patch Of uncovered skin is
likely to stand out with disagreeable
plainness the next morning. The
feeling Of the mud on the face is not as
unpleasant as one might at first sup
pose. 1t feels much as a coating of
vaseline or cold cream would and its
beneficial results are much greater. The
hands are treated the same way, except
that it is advisable to wear an old loose
pair of gloves to prevent the mud from
being rubbed off during the night. The
idea of the mud wash Is as old as his
tory. The old Romans knew of it and
it is very probable that Cleopatra used
the prescription to enhance her charms.
In the west mud is a panacea for pois-
onous bites and stings. And the rural
The idea may be distasteful to a great
The idea may be Alstastefu Ito a great
many people, but it is the fad at pres
ent and has many devotees as social
fancies always do
