Death Of J. M. Prater.

The sad news of the death of our
townsman, J. NJ. Prater,a at his
residence, was shock to our
people, and especially our business
men as they went to their various
business houses yesterday morn
ing. While the news of his death
was not unexpected, still many
hoped the disease could be over
come and the patient restored to
his former good health. Mr.. Pra-
ter had been sick for about two
weeks, sufferer from appendi-
citiS and an abscessed liver, the
latter being in all probability the
primary cause of death. He
breathed his last at 5 O'Clock Sat
urday morning, surrounded by his
loving vile and family and rela-
tives. The remains We're taken to
Noble, o. T., for intelment. At
this place Mr.. Prater has brothers
living, and they being here accom-
panied the remains to their last
resting place.
MIR. Prater was, it may be said,
young man, in the prime of man
hood, being &c years of age. He
leaves a wife and four little chill
dren to mourn his departure, to
whom the ARDMoREITE extends
consolation and deepest sympathy.

Parsnip Complexion.

1t does not require an expert TO detect
the sufferer from kidney trouble. The
hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the
dark puffy circles under the eyes, the
sallow parsnip-colored complexion in
dicates it.
A physician would ask if you had
rheumatism, dull pain or ache in the
back or over the hips, stomach trouble,
desire to urinate often, or burning or
scalding in passing it; If after passing
there is an unsatisfied feeling as if it
must be at once repeated, or if the urine
has brick dust deposit or strong odor
When these symptoms are present,
no time should be lost in removing the
cause
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of
the bladder, inflammation, causing stop
page. and sometimes requiring the
drawing OF the urine with instruments,
or may run into Bright's Disease, the
most dangerous stage of kidney trouble.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, is positive remedy
for such diseases. Its reputation is
worldwide and it is so easy to get at
any drug store that no one need suffer
any length of time for want of it.
However, if you prefer to first test its
wonderful merits, mention The Rich
mond CIMAX and write to DIR. Kilmer
& Co., Binghamton. n. Y. for a sample
bottle and book telling all about it, both
sent absolutely free by mail.

prosperity and the mercantile agencies
point with great pride to the stock and
bond quotations, but that is not pros
perity. The farmers made a pretty
good thing because they had good
crops but the mechanics of the country
are not prosperous. Good worknen
are still walking the streets or working
at starvation wages. No prosperity
has yet come to the iuntry. Wall
street and the banks may be prosperous
but so may the grandees of Spain and
vet the poor masses be in penury.
There is a growing tendency upon the
part of public men and newspapers TO
ignore the individual rights and indi-
vidual prosperity of the masses. The
great governmental and capitalistic in
terests that seek to justify the ignoring
and overriding of Individual rights for
"ihe public good" are very dangerous
to the Democratic simplicity of this re-
public.
