I'M said to he one hundred years
At d eight months old, was found dead
III her bed last Tuesday, about mid

combined influence of old age and the
heat. The good old woman had for
merly belonged to the John Webre
family, of this parish, and it IS pretty
well established that she had reached a
century Of existence. She had reared
a large famiiy aua was esteemed by
the people who know her.

A Clever Trick.

1t certainly looks like it, but there
is really no trick about. Anybody can
try it who has Lame Back and Weak
Kidneys, Malaria or nervous troubles.
We mean he can cure himself right
away by taking Electric Bitters. This
medicine tones up the whole system,
acts as a stimulent to the Liver and
Kidneys, is blood purifier and nerve
tonic. 1t cures Constipation, Sick
Headache, Painting Spells, Sleepless-
ness and Melancholy. 1t is purely
vegetable, mild laxative, and restores
the system to its natural vigor. Try
Electric Bitters and be convinced that
they are a miracle worker. Every
bottle is guaranteed. Only soc bottle
at Chas. w. Houston's Drug Store.

NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD,

A fact often overlooked, or not al
ways understood, is that women suffer
Us much from distressing kidney and
bladder trouble as men. The womb is
situated back and very close to the
bladder, and for that reason any dis
tress, disease or Inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage is often, by mistake,
attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort.
Tho error is easily made and may be
as easily avoided by setting urine aside
for twenty-four hours; a sediment or
settling is evidence that your kidneys
and bladder need doctoring. If YOU
have pain or dull aching in the back,
pass water too frequently, or scanty
supply, with smarting or burning
these are also convincing proofs of kid
ney trouble. 1fyou have doctored with

Buy your Xmas goods OF Mertz the
home druggist. The little boy that
was lost last week was found by his
father at Mertz's Drug Store looking
at Xmas Toys. The father tarried so
long that the mother set out to hunt
father and son which were still at
the Drug Store. Then the mother
had to look over the Xmas goods
which took several hours. They
were so rejoiced that they did not re-
greet going without the dinner which
was stone cold on their return. Why
buy Xmas goods in other towns when
you can do better at home. Try me.
