CATARRH.
COLD IN THEHEAD

Is acute inflammation and dwelling of the
0lfRctory organ which contains the
Nerves of Smell. This organ is a long
ribbon-lil1e membrane and hangs from
the roof of the Nasal passage in folds, as
seen in Fig. 3. When this condition be-
comes chronic, or permanent, it is called
CATARRH. The folds become swollen
into a solid mass, so the air In breathing
cannot circulate between them hence
the loss of smell. The Catarrhal microbe
soon makes its appearance, causing q
multitude of small ulcers between these
folds. The pus from these ulcerc is very
poisonous and soon impregnates the
whole mucous surface of the nose, hsad
and throat with the disease. Medical
works show cases where the tonsIls have
become a corrupt mass of ulcers. 1t not
infrequently involves the whole bronchial
passage to the lungs, causing consump-
ton and death. 1t Will be seen that
nothing can radically cure Catarrh which
does not reach to the seat of the disease
between these folds of the Olfactory
organ, and cleanse and heal these ulcers.

THE SCHOOL TAX.

On Wednesday, Oct. Goth,
the proposition to levy an
extra school tax will be re-
submitted to the qualified
voters of the corporation of
Bolivar.
1t will be remembered that
this same proposition was
voted on several weeks ago,
and carried, by the bare ma
jority of one vote.
Opponents of the measure
appealed to ChancellorHawk-
ms, through counsel, to de-
clare the election illegal, on
the grounds that it was not
held by the proper authori-
ties.
The Chancellor ruled in fa-
vor of the opponents and held
that the election should have
been ordered by the Election
Commissioners instead of the
Sheriff ; hence the collection
of the tax was prohibited.
The election to be held
next Wednesday has been or
dered by the proper author
tiles, so there can be no fur
Their valid complaint on that
account.
We hope and believe that
the majority next Wednesday
will be greater than at the
previous election. Our peo-
pie are greatly interested in
the matter of education.
They realize the fact that in
order to build up our town
we must have long-termed,
properly conducted public
schools.
1t is not the intention or
desire of those who favor
levying the extra school tax

Death of T. N. Prewitt.

T. n. Prewitt died at his resi-
dence in Hickory Valley, Saturday
Oct. 9TH, 1897, of erysipelas. His
remains were buried Sunday al
Grand Junction. The funeral ser
vice was held in the Baptist church.
conducted by Rev. R. A. Kim
brough, whose remarks were ap
propriate and impressive. After
the church service the body wal
taken in charge by Tennyson Lodge
No. 1O7, Knights of Pythias, to
which deceased belonged, and was
buried with Pythian honors. An
immense throng from different por-
tons of the county were present to
witness the last sad rites. The
grave was perfect bank of flowers.
Mr.. Prewitt was a member of
one of the oldest and most respect
ed families in Hardeman County.
He was son of DR.. Joseph Prev
lit, who died in 1878 of yellow fe-
yer, and a nephew of DR.. 7. E.
Prewitt, of Grand Junction. He
was born in Hardeman County,
Tennessee, in 1864, and spent his
entire life here with the exception
of a few years sojourn in Colorado
and Arkansas. About ten years
ago he was united in marriage to
Miss May Rose. For several years
past, and at the time of his death,
he was successfully engaged in the
mercantile business at Hicory Val
ley under the firm name of Prewitt
& Rose. He was a member of the
Baptist church and belonged to the
knights of Pythias and WoOdmen
of the World, in both of which
orders he carried insurance.
"Thad." Prewitt, as he was IA
miliarly known, was a noble, chris
tian gentleman-a man of the very
highest sense of honor. He was
ever ready to assist worthy broth
er, had pleasant word for all and
his popularity was unbounded. An
allwise Providence has seen fit to
call him from earth in the noon
day of life. While his death is
deeply, sincerely, earnestly regret
ed, we must humbly bow to the
will of God. Peace to the ashes of
brave, generous, kind hearted
s'Thad." Prewitt!
To his heart broken wife, who so
patiently, faithfully, watched over
him and administered to his wants,
the BULLETIN, on behalf of legions
of friends, among whom the editor
of this paper had the honor to be
numbered, extends sympathy.
