At this time of the year a cold is very
easily contracted, and if left to run its
course without the aid of some reliable
cough medicine is liable to result in
that dread disease, pneumonia. We
know of no better remedy I cure a
cough or cold than Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. We have used it quite
extensively and it has always given
entire satisfaction .-Olagah, Ind. Ter.
Chief.
This is the only remedy that is known
to be a certain preventive of pneumo'
MIA. Among the many thousands who
have used it for colds and the grip,
we have never yet learned Of q single
case having resulted in pneumonia,
Persons who have weak lungs or have
reason to fear an attack of pneumonia

In Memoriam.

Margaret Stuart Walker, colored, was born
November 1859, and died December 10, 1897.
She Joined fhe church two years ago, and
since then has lived an earnest, consecrated,
Christian life. During all Of her sickness,
she was cheerful, patient and accomplishing.
Sabbath afternoon as her friends gathered
around her, she had a word for each one, and
asked them to so live that they might meet
her in heaven. As she spoke of the beauties
of heaven and Of Christ's wonderful love to
her, we stood with bowed heads, feeling that
we were in the presence of His very own. She
told us that everything was settled and she
was ready to go; that the Sabbath would be
unending. She had indeed set her house
in order, and was only waiting for the
ummon of the Master to com up
higher. She fought the good fight, she fin
ishcd the course, she kept the faith and has
received the "crown of righteousness which
the Lord has promised to all that love His
approaching She leaves a husband, four
children and many friends to mourn her de-
parture, to whom We extend our sympathy.

Shameful Conduct,

There comes a report from parties living
on the road leading from this place to Jack
sons bridge and not far below town, that
these young men, who's identity could not
be learned, were in town Monday and as they
went from town and were just opposite a
certain house they had some obscene con-
duct which il they should be indicted would
get them into considerable trouble. Such
conduct IN the public roads should not be
tolerated and these young men had better
act more like gentlemen than brutes the next
time thnv lenNe town.

An Old Idea.

Every day strengthens the belief Of emf.
nent physicians that impure blood is the
cause of the majority of our diseases.
Twenty-Five years ago this theory was used
as a basis for the formula of Browns Iron
Bitters. The many remarkable cures effected
by this famous old household remedy are
sufficient to prove that the theory is correct.
Browns Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers.

RETAIL. GROCERs TO ORGANIZE.
They Want Rolling Groceries to Pay
License Taxes.

The retail grocery men Of Richmond
have their grievances as well as other
folks. and they have determined, If pos
sible. to remedy the evils which confront
them. With this end fin view, a large
number OF them met last night at the
residence. No Az west Clay street, oil
Mr.. ]. J. King. and decided to organize
themselves into retail grocers' associa-
ton.
Only a temporary organization was et-
fected last night, but permanent organl-
cation will be effected next week. AT the
meeting last night Mr.. King was chosen
temporary chairman, and he VIII call
the next meeting. The grocers talked
over their grievances I'm an informal fash
ion. but declined to make public any OF
their deliberations. Their principal OBJ
iect in organizing is 10 rid them
selves. as far as possible OF the
opposition i'm the shape OF the wagons
which ply the streets under the guise OF
country vehicles. selling eggs. butter.
chickens. and other farm products. which
are usually purchased by them from COM
mission merchants down town. The
procers do not object TO these men SELL
ing their goods. but do insist that they
shall pay the license-tax on their busi-
ness as all store proprietors are made
to do.
Some time ago the grocers appealed 10
Chief-of- Police Howard for assistance III
the matter. but he declined to aid then'
and they propose now taking the matter
I'm their own hands.
