RoGERsviLLE, Tenn, Aug. lO.-Qui'e a
sensation has been created here by finding
the charrcd skeleton of a man in the
ruins of one of the three barns Of Henry

night. The theory is that some tramp
was sleeping in the barn and that spark
from his pipe set fire to the buildings.

contents will amount to about $1,000; the
insurance is 81 900.

the chains of disease is the worst form OF
slavery. George ID. Williams, of Man
chester, Mich, tells how such a slave was

not turn over in he'd alone. After using
two bottles of Electric Bitters, she is
wonderfully improved and able to do her
own work" This supreme remedy for
female diseases quickly cures nervousness,
sleeplessness, melancholy, headache, back
ache, fainting and dizzy spells. This
miracle working medicine is godsend to
weak, sickly, run down people. Every
bottle guaranteed. Only 80 cents. Sold
