We are indeed sorry y to hear of tho
fatal accident which caused tho doath of
that most excellent young man, Mr..
Wayne Sihoior, vi Tugaioo. Death is al
ways sad, and in the untimoly demise Of
this bright young man tho shock is very
great, Last Thursday his father, Mr..
fD,
days trip ito tho Confederate Vetorans'
to7union and n business trip in Georgia.
Arriving at home fatigued and woary
from his journey and finding his noble
son in tho agonics of death. 1t was mex
pressibly sad. While taking his gun
from q buggy it was accidentally dis
charged, the load entering tho young
mans abdomen, producing a mortal
wound. Ho had returned to tho house
whore he had gone in buggy to repair
a break in tho pasture fence and had
taken his gun along, 1t was his habit
/, keep his gun unchanged Mt tho house,
AID whom not in tho presence of game.
10 had had no occasion to uso it on his
trip to tho pasture and was not aware
that it was loadod-that his mother had
directed a colored man about tho house
to load it fow days boforo to shoot o
drawn. When he returned to the house
accompanied by young friond, who
was visiting him, ho carolessly drow the
gun from beneath tho buggy seat, muz-
Zle foremost, and tho hammer catching
against something, tho gun was dis
charged intlioting horrible wound in his
side. Young Sholor lingerod several
hours and then death relieved him of his
sufforings. Drs. j. M. MoClanahan and
Il g fri 1,,,f
could do nothing but ease the pain until
tho end camo. MI. Sholor was about 10
years old and gave promise of life Of
usefulness. He was educated Mt Tusca-
loosa, Ala, and would have soon entered
a medical college to take up the study Of
medicine. TO the borcavod family and
friends wo tender our sympathy.

day to tako a two wcok's vacation. Miss
Sheldon is the popular saleslady for j. &

enjoy her rest from tho duties of a store
Crops are growing nicely,
Dr.. Pierce's Favor.te Prescription is
tho fruit of years Of study by q regularly
graduated, experienced and skilled
specialist in woman's ailments. 1t is the
product of an investigating mind united
with generous nature. When an intelli-
gent person gives years of study to a
subject there must bo some good result.
The "Favorite Prescription" is COM
pound of oxtracfr of herbs that makes Il
strengthening, soothing medicine. 1t
acts directly upon tho distinctly feminine
organs. 1t stops drain from lining NOM
branos by healing diseased parts, thoroby
curing also tho inflammation that is
always present.

will not only cure liberation but all
diseases of fomalos." Yours truly,
