ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was crea ted for one pur-
pose, namely, receptacle for the
urine, and as such it is not liable to
any form of disease except by one of
two ways The first way is from i'm
perfect action of the kidneys. The Sec
ond way is from careless local treat
ment of other. diseases
CHIEF CAUSE,
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys Is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad-
der, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease except in rare
cases. It is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any
pain, 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. The error Is
easily avoided. To find out correctly
set your urine aside for twenty four
hours, a sediment or settling indicates
kidney Or bladder trouble. The mild

Farmers Have Fun With CycIers

Syracuse, Sept. 3.-On the
road between Syracus and Liver
pool yesterday afternoon two
farmers in wagon with hay
rick had great fun with the cyclers.
They monopolized the road from
one side to the other, tumbling
the bicyelers off their wheels and
chuckling and roaring at their
discontinue, A little the other
side of the tollgate they ran into a
rather mild-looking young man in
bicycle costume and sent him on
his head. Then they roared louder
than ever, and when he attempted
to climb over the back of their
wagon, they repulsed him with a
pitchfork and roared with laughter
again. The young man mounted
his wheel and spurted on ahead of
the funny farmers. At a hotel,
half way to Liverpool, they drew
up to refresh their horses and
themselves, and hardly had they
done SO when they found them
selves PROSTATE in the dirt, with
the mild-looking young man in
bicycle costume illustrating the
most effective blows of modern
pugilism on various portions of
their anatomy. A tabnlated state
ment of the blows would show as
follows:
On Farmer No. Solar plex-
us, 6; right hooks on the jaws,
18; kidney blows, II; claret
drawers, 13; rib punishers, 9.
On Farmer No. 2.-Heart
thumps, IS; right hooks, 27:
liver disturbers, 9; corkscrew
blows, IA; knockouts, 81.
The farmers had simply made a
mistake. The young man whom
they had chosen for victim was
Fred Warner, the well-known
pugilist.

MRS. r. A. WATTS DEAD.


After a lingering illness of sew
eral months, the white-winged
m essenger of death removed from
our mid@, this morning at 4
o'clock, the spirit of Mrs. r. A.
Watts and transported it to its
heavenly home beyond the clouds.
She was 81 years of age and leaves
a large family and host of sor-
rowing friends to mourn her loss.
The funeral will be held from
the residence tomorrow Afternoon
at 4::3O O'Clock and the interment
made in the family plot in Willow
Dale cemetery.
The deceased was woman of
more than ordinary intelligence.
She was a genius with heart
filled with love and compass
sion, a soul fired with patriotic
impulses, and brain full of i'm
agination. Her life was as boauti-
full as the thoughts that fell from
her pen.
Placed away il the scrap books
of the many readers of the old
Goldsbore Messenger can be found
her poems that appeared from
time to time. These priceless gifts
that she has left behind has given
her a warm place in the hearts of
their pos SCISSORS.
From among her many splendid
compositions we print the follow
ing on the Confederate monument,
that now stands in Willow Dale
cemetery, which appeared in the
Goldsboro Messenger on May II,
1888:
You Who have loved ''the grey
To honor the dead who wore it,
We meet together to-day.
Bring here crown of immortelles.
To lay on the martyrs breast,
After "life's fitful fever,
Type of eternal rest.
Bring here a cross Of red roses,
Emblem that Christ's blood was shed;
He that on Jesus reposes,
Ah we shall never forget them,
Who fought and died for "the grey
Some lie in graves unhOnored,
On battle fields far away!
Some fell in the strength of manhood,
Others in youths fresh bloom:
Bring out the Confederate Banner
To float above their tomb.
There were mothers who gave their first born
The idols of home and heart;
There were wives who wept with anguish
When they saw the troops depart.
For husband and father we're with them,
And God alone could tell.
What would the future bring them?
And the land they loved SO well!
And Loves Young Dream was broken,
When the call Ito arms" was heard,
But he sleeps at Gettysburg.
And panic seized the nations,
When on the Southern breeze,
Came the voice of the dying Jackson,
Let US rest beneath the trees"
"Let us pass over the river"
That washes the golden shore"
Pitch our tents forever more.
And over this fair, sunny South,
Spread pail of disaster and gloom,
And ''The Conquered Banner waved,
It's torn folds DER the tomb.
So gather around this statue,
And let their children hear,
How the memory of their chivalry,
Grows dearer year by year.
And bring pale lilies and jasmines,
Fragrant with Springs sweet breath,
And plant the weeping willow,
The sentinel OF death!
And let the band play "Dixie,"
Unfurl the "stars and bars,''
Salute the Southern soldier,
And give him three HurraS.
