AT REST.
Newberr

On Friday morning at o'clock,
June 9th, the home of William T.
Duvall was made dssolate, he was
left a widower, and bis two little
sons motherless by the death of his
beautiful, faithful and devoted wife,
whose pure soul winged its fight to
heavens gate. Hers had been a
protraeted illness and Mr.. Duvall
had taken her to different climates
in the hopes of restoring her health.
The best medical talent in the whole
country was secured in the effort to
relieve her suferings and lengthsn
her days. But it all failed before
the great destroyer.
Funeral services were conducted
from the magnificent home, which
had been beautifed and embellished
for her pleasure and comfort, on
Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock,
by Arcndeacon Lake, in the impress.
sive Episcopalian rites, and the re-
mains followed to Oak Hill cemetery
by large concourss of friends and
tenderly laid away by loving hands.
Jessie Susan, eldest daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. T. w. Childs, was
born in Salt Lake City, Utah, Feb'y
10th, 1868, and brought to Butler
by her parents when but three years
of age. She grew to beautiful wo-
manhood in our midst, was educated
in our schools and her amlable dis.
position endeared her to our people.
She was united in marriage to VIM.
T. DuvaIl, December 23rd, 1890, to
which union two sons were born,
both of whom survive her, one being
an infant. She was a member of the
Episcopal church and a consistent
christian. Besides the devoted hus-
band and little sons, she leaves a
mother, two sisters and three broth
ers to mourn their great loss, and
the bereaved have the sympathy of
the entire community.

A Clever Trick.

1t certainly looks like it, but there
is really no trick about it. Anybody
can try it who has lame back and
weak kidneys, malaria or nervous
troubles. We mean he can cure
himself right away by taking Electric
Bitters. This medicine tones up the
whole system, acts as a stimulant to
liver and kidneys, is blood purifier
and nerve tonic It cures constipa-
ton, headache, fainting spells, sleep,
lessness and melancholy. It is purely
vegetable, a mild laxative, and re-
stores the system to it's natural
vigor. Try Electric Bitters and be
convinced that they are a miracle
worker. Every bottle guaranteed.
Only SOC a bottle at Fl. L. fuckers

A Scholar and a Statesman.

Speaking of his observations at

Walter Williams, in the Columbia
Herald has the following to say of
our Congressman, Mr.. DeArmond:
"DeArmond's slight figure and
slighter voice followed the Wetmore
speech. Oddly enough his clear,
cameo like sentences could be heard
with greater ease than those flung
out by Benton's stentorian voice.
DeArmond looks like scholar and
talks like statesman. It is said that
he seldom writes out his speeches.
They all have, however, the rounded
elegance of the ssssYist rather than
the bIuntnsss of the stumper. Above
all else Diamonds speeches are

Buggies, Buggies.

We have been so busy selling
buggies that we haven't had time to
even write to the people about them.
We sold the last car of buggies we
got in in less than ten days; this is
record breaker for Butler, and the
reason of this is, the people have
never had chance to buy "a first
class buggy at a reasonable price
until we commenced to handle them
This you can easily decide is true by
noticing the condition the larger
portion of buggies in Bates county
are in that have only been used
from six to twelve months. We will
have in to morrow a car load of 33
buggies of Sayers & Scoyil goods;
these are the buggies that took the
Gold Medal at the Worlds Fair on
the young mans buggy. Now, you
can buy these bugglss from US as
cheap almost as you can buy the
shoddy goods, as we intend to make
a close price on them to see in how
short a time we can sell the car
load. For goodness sake, your swn
sake and your sweetheart's sake,
don't buy buggy until you have
seen ours; then if your judgment
don't tell you to buy ours, we have
nothing more to say.

this and please remember another
thing, if there is any article you can
buy cheaper than from us it is not

day at observing a farmer, after
killing a nest of snakes turned
up by the pillow, arrange the dead
snakes in the furrow before he
went back to the pillow.
"Why do you do that, my
good MANI" the scientist asked.
The farmer looked curiously at
the scientist, and seeing that he
was really in search OF informa-
ton replied:
81 do that so the pillow will
cover the snakes on the next
round
Seeing that the scientist was
still mystlfied, the farmer con-
tinued:

they will decompose. That is

is q MusTACHE PROPERTY?

Is a mustache property? If SO,
what is its value? These points
will be raised in a very peculiar
suit which is coming up at the
next term of court in a town in
Georgia. The facts are briefly
these: Almost a month ago a
we'll known travelling man was
staying at the leading hotel OF
the place, and Went to the cigar
stand one day to get a light
They had a tangled concern
that spouted out a jet of flame
when the lighter was lifted, but
on this particular occasion it
hung fire. The drummer was
trying to make it work, when all
of a sudden it blazed out like a
volcano and licked off his long,
beautiful blonde mustache. he
was furious, of course, because
the mustache had been his chief
ornament and pride, but the al
fair might still have passed or
without trouble if he hadn't been
so numerically chaffed. The
upshot of this was that ne de-
manded damages. The landlord
laughed at him, and he then in
structed a lawyer to bring suit
for So, 800. The papers will be
filed in the next terra OF court,
and will contain some interesting
allegations. 1t will be claimed
that the mustache was of direct
assistance to its owner in earning
a livelihood, insomuch as it gave
him a distinguished appearance,
and thus facilitated his inter-
views with the trade. Its loss,
he holds, was a Disagreement
which has occasioned ridicule,
falling off in prestige and conse'
ouent shrinkage in business, lie
will also allege that his altered
appearance caused great menta
anguish to himself and his wife
and that species OF suffering may
be reduced under the law to dol
lars and cents, Incidentally he
will try to prove that the absence
Of q mustache affected his eye
sight. So, as one may observe,
a good many interesting ano
delicate questions will be raised
and doubtless the case will at'
tract wide attention, What SORT
of defense will be set up remains
