"For the past ten years 1 have been q
fearful sufferer from the most painful type
OF inhammntory rheumatism, which would
make its appearance on tho least possible
provocaion. Winter was when 1 suffered
the worst, and Il generally attacked me from
my hips down, and l had to 20 TO bed.
While these attacks lasted, II anyone touched
the bed even, would scream with pain, as
the least contact was unbearRble, for every
Joint and every muscle gave me exoruciating
agony.
"while was in this terrible condition, my
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Campbell, came TO visit
me, and told me he knew OF a case very
similar to mine that had been entirely cured
by the use OF DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People and advised me TO try them, as
the physicians were not doing me any good.
On this my father bought me two boxes,
which took according to directions, aud
began to recover, getting stronger every day.
1 kept on with Dr. Williams remedy until
/ had taken two dozen boxes, and by that
time every trace OF rheumatism was gone,
and nm now az we'll as ever was.
"If you have any doubts as to my state
ment, | refer you for its confirmation TO
Rev. Mr.. Campbell, Of Hastings, and Mr..
SERVER, OF Hastings, the latter b.ing Super
intendent of the Methodist Sunday School,
who know all OF the facts surrounding my
extraordinary recovery. Pink Pills saved
my life aud gave me health and strength,
aud we will never be without them in our
house.

IT IS EASY TO TELL.

People who fail to look after tn cir
health are like the carpenter who neglects
to sharpen his tools. People are not apt
to get anious about their health soon
enough. If you are mot quite WE'LL or
''half sick' have you ever thought that
your kidneys may be the cause of your
sickness?
1t is easy to tell by setting aside your
urine for twenty -four hours; sediment Of
settling indicates an unhealthy condition
Of the kidneys. When urine stains linen
it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too fire.
quent desire to urinate, scanty supply,
pain or dull ache in the back is also con-
vincing proof that the kindneys and blad-

There is satisfaction in knowing that the
great remedy DR.. Kilmer's Swampt-Root
fulflls every wish in relieving weak Or
diseased kidneys and all forms of bladder

Swamp-Root give new life and acticity to

Edward G.. Barnes was the son OF
the late John M. Barnes and Parthena
J. Barnes, and was born in Granville
(now Vance) county, within three
miles of Henderson, July 3rd, 1859,
and was therefore in the 39th year OF
his age. He came to Henderson in
1873 and engaged as salesman with
E. G.. Davis. About a year and a
half later he entered the employment
of D. Y. Cooper in whose service he
was at the time of his death.
Mr.. Barnes was one Of the most
active and successful men connected
with the tobacco trade. He had re-
markable aptitude for business and
great capacity for work, and i'll his
special line he had no superior. There
was not better known or more popu-
lar man in the business.
Everybody knew Ed. Barnes aud
everybody liked him. The farmers
had confidence in him and he was one
of the first persons called for when they
came to Cooper's. An energetic and
tireless worker, ever alive to the in
terest Of his house and the welfare Of
his patrons, both Of whom he served
faithfully and acceptably, no man
turned more tobacco into the channels

DEATH OF MR.. E. q. BARNES.

A Prominent and Popular Young Bus
mess nan Passes From the Stage OF
Action and UsefuIness-The Com
munity Greatly Shocked BY the
Sad Intelligence.
Verify, Gin the midst of life we are
in DEATH"
Never was this truth more clearly il
Illustrated than in the death last week
of Mr.. Edward G. Barnes, one Of Hen
derson's most widely known and useful
citizens. Tuesday morning he started
from home the very picture of strong
and vigorous manhood in the flush of
robust health. Thursday night he was
corpse. The death Of no man in the
community has caused profounder sor-
row, the circumstances under which
he died being peculiarly sad.
The particulars are these: Mr..
Barnes had business up the Durham
road. The train was moving and he
had to run to catch it. In some way
he hurt his leg, straining muscle, or
rupturing a blood vessel of the thigh.
After getting on the train he realized
that he was hurt but did not think much
Of it at the time and went on.
At Creedmoor he got off intending
to 60 into the country. But finding
that his injury was more serious than
he at first thought it was, and giving
hiul considerable pain. he decided to
stop there until he felt better.
Mr.. Barnes took his bed and doc
tor was summoned. He suffered much
during Wednesday and then appeared
to improve to such extent that it was
hoped he would be able to come home
pext day. But he grew worse and
died at 9:lO O'Clock Thursday night
as a result Of his injury.
AS soon as the sad intelligence was
learned Mr.. L. w. Barnes. brother of
the dead man, together with num-
Der of friends, went up on an extra
train and the body was brought home
and prepared for burial, the party
reaching Henderson about O'Clock.
The fact that Mr.. Barnes had been
hurt was known to many of his friends
but they were wholly unprepared for
the news of his death and it came as
painful surprise and shock to them.
Mr.. Barnes had for years been
