HOW TO Look Good.

Good looks are really more than skin deep,
depending entirely on healthy condition of
all the vital organs. If the liver be inactive,
you have a bilious look; if your stomach be
disordered, you have dyspeptic look; if
your kidneys be affected, you have pinched
look. Secure good health, and you will sure
ly have good looks. Electric Bitters" is a
good Alternative and tonic. Acts directly on
the stomach, liver and kidneys. Puriles the
blood, cures pimples, blotches and boils, and
gives good complexion. Every bottle

Uproa.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, December 4-Lamas

many months past by desperate gang OF

made and the offenders arrdgned before the
United States court, now il session at Bir-
mingham. But few witnesses could be found
who would testify against the accused thro'
fear of violence. Two negroes, John and
Lewis Bonner, were summoned among the
rest and induced to testiS Their testimony
was very material to tn Government and
resulted in the convrhon of several OF the
worst members of the gang.
The two negroes we're assured that no
violence would befall them and returned to
their home near Kennedy last night. About
midnight, they were called to their doors by
some unknown parties and shot down in
cold blood. The negroes refused to open
the doors, which were broken down and the
two frightened men comeelled to come to
the front porch. No sooner had they come
in sight than hundred shots rang out from
every direction. Their bodies were COM
pletely riddled with bullGs, after which the
mob dispersed. An nattenpt was made to set
fire to the cabin but the IRE was put out by
other members Of the pary.
The whole county is stirred up over the
affair and no officer dares venture back into
the mountain Businesses, The Government
officers have been notiad and swear they
will hunt down the muderers. They are
organizing posse to lesge Tor the scene
More trouble is feared for che whitecap gang

Those Who Endure

The pains of rheumatism should be re-.
minded that cure for this disease
may be found in Hoods Sarsaparilla.
The experience of those who have
taken Hoods Ssrsaparilla for rheuma-
tism, and have been completely and
permanently curee, prove the power Of
this medicine to rout and conquer this
disease. Hoods Sarssparilla is the
One True Blood Purifier and it neutral
ICES the acid which causes the aches
and pains of rheumatism. This is why
it absolutely cures when liniments and
other outward applications fail to give
permanent relief. Be sure to get
Hoods.
