REEFToN, New Zealand, Nov. %,
1896.-I am very pleased to state
that since took the agency ofCham-
berlain's medicines the sale has been
very large, more especially of the
Cough Remedy. In two years l
have sold more of this particular
remedy than of all other makes for
the previous five years. AS to it's
efficacy, l have been informed by
scores of persons of the good results
they have received from it, and
know its value from the use of it
in my own household. 1t is so
pleasant to take that we have to
place the bottle beyond the reach of
the children. E.J. SCANTLEBURY.

day, two years intervening between
each birth. The happy occasion
was properly celebrated.
"A new schedule went into effect
on the Illinois Central last Sunday
The most important changes are as
follows: The north bound morning
passenger train is due at 7.49, and
meets the south bound passenger
train at Bolivar. The local freight
is fifteen minutes earlier going
south in the morning and fifty-fve
minutes later going north in the
afternoon. The new schedule ap-
pears elsewhere in to-day's paper.
The remains of Charles A. Nee
ly arrived here Sunday morning and
were buried in Polk Cemetery. The
funeral service was conducted from
st. James Church by the rector,
Rev. G. S. Ware. Many friends
attended the service and followed
the body to the grave. Charles
Nicely was a son of the late DR.. j..
J. Nicely. He was born in Bolivar
in 1850. Here his entire life was
spent, with the exception>of about
ten years on the Western plains.
After the death of his father, he re-
turned to Bolivar. Shortly after
his return, his brain became diseas'
ed and it was deemed best to con-
fine him in an Asylum, hence he
was sent to the Central Tennessee
Hospital, Nashville, where he died
Saturday. Noble, generous-hearted
man that he was, the announcement
of his death will be received with
sorrow throughout Hardeman Coun-
ty.

terested in the progress and success
of your profession.
You have achieved wonderful
things in the past, and at this time
the people of our beautiful South
land are looking to you with more
than ordinary interest. We are
hoping and praying that you may
find some remedy, some preventa-
tive, some cure for that great and
dreadful disease that has afflicted
our Southern country. We are
looking and trusting to you, as the
private soldier looks and trusts to
his great general on the field of bat
tie. We are of one mind in bid
ding you Godspeed in your effort
to relieve the world of this great
plague.
What a great life is that of the
physician, and what responsibility!
Who does not love the faithful man,
administering to the afflicted of ev-
cry class or condition.; responding
to the call of suffering mankind?
No road is too long, or night too
dark, cold or dreary for you to re
spond! And how the world re-
spends in kind! What great conf
dence man has in his physician; and
this confidence is not confined to
civilization alone-the Digger In
dian trusts his "Medicine Man"
even unto death. This is right. 1t
should be so.
Tennessee is proud of her noble
sons, and while we have our great
statesmen, lawyers and men of
worth, whom we delight to honor,
none are loved and obeyed in so
great degree as the physician.
l hope that your meeting here
will not only be pleasant, but prof
table to your fellow man.
l again bid you welcome.

THE BAKER-RICKETS0N co.,


House building. like about every
other important industry, has been di-
lNlded into sUecialties of late years and
the result is that "a house can be built
cheaper and quicker today than it pos
sibly could have been i'm days gone by,
assuming, OF course that size, style,
material and workmanship are the
same. One of the most important spe-
eialties is that of the manufacture of
sash. doors, blinds. mOuldiugs, and in
fact all kinds of interior and exterior
finish. and it certainly is advisable to
exercise discretion i'm the placing of
orders or OF contracts for work of this
kind. for the appearance and the cost
of keeping iu repair OF building are
Influenced very considerably by the ma
rerial and workmanship displayed on
these parts of d building. The architect
lis generally responsible for the mate
rial used, but it is the man having the
contract for furnishing them who does
the work, and il is an open secret that
uhe best plans and specifications do not
assure such good results as placing the
contract in the hands of a responsible
party. That is one reason why it all
ways pays to give such contracts to
the Baker-8icketson Company for no
concern produces better work than
they. The company was formed and
incorporated i'm 1898, having capital of
$4,000, and is consolidation of the
builders finish department. of the
