Death of a Young Man.

Mr.. Eugene White, son of M. ]. A.
White, returned from school In Will
liamston Il few weeks ago and went to
work in the fields as usual. He was
strong and vigorous and there was no
thought either to him or his people ct
death for him. He was taken sick
last Friday and died Sunday afternoon.
His system became congestsd and it
was thought that mis- sickness was
caused by his labors in the hot sun.
The remains were inferred in the
Baptist cemetery Monday afternoon.

Mr.. w. L. Vaughan, a clever and
courteous young man, has charge Of
the subscription list tor The COMMON.
WEALTH and will call on our delinquents
whom he can conveniently see during
the next few weeks.
Now, friends, you have some idea
about what you owe us, and we dc hope
you will try to be ready to pay Mr..
Vaughan whsn he calls upon you
Perhaps you think this rather hard
season for collections, but it is just as
hard for us as it. Is for you. We pay
printers spot cash every Saturday and
we pay them just as much this season
as any other. Please try to settle your
little dues with Mr.. Vaughan when be
calls.
This applies to our Scotland Neck
subscribers just as well as to those else
where.
The editor OF this paper has business
at his desk constantly and has not the
time to stand on the streets and wait
for folks to pass by nor to look them
up for these little amounts.
Some seem to get offended when
they are asked to pay dollar On de-
linquent subscription. We can't see
any reason why any honest man should
take offense when an honest accoun
Is presented to him.
II you should 60 to any store and
purchase dollars worth Of goods and
have the account charged and go a
year without paying it or mentioning
it to the store-keeper you would not be
surprised for him to present you the
account. Why take offense, then,
when your newspaper account is
presented
It Is unreasonable to do so. We are
making no difference with persons, and
say plainly that If you owe as much as
half year we want you to pay it tc

1t is this condition that DR.. Hartman
calls systemic catarrh. The whole sys.
tenn is saturated with catarrh. Thisdis.
covery marked an important advance in
the history of medical science. The
medical profession had long been crop
ing to discover the meaning Of the stub
born and distressing after-efYects Of Ia
grippe. All remedies seemed alike in.
adequate.
AS soon as DR.. Hartman announced
that It was his belief that the after
effects Of la grippe was simply sys-
temic cat:rrh, "a great advance was mado
in the treatment of these cases. II now
onlyremained to find reliable remedy
for systemic catarrh.
Here new difficulty arose. Catar-h
had been regarded by many physicians
as local disease and treated solely by
local remedies. Such physicians knew
of no systemic remedy for catarrh.
Other physicians regarded cstarrh as
blood disease and had been in the habit
of treating it with blood medicines,
which could be of no possible use in
systemic cstarrh.
For time Peruna enjoyed the dis
tinction of being the only systemic ca.
tarrh remedy known. It was not even
claimed by anyone that there was an
other remedy for this exasperatingco con-
dition.
Since then, however, q great many
remedies have been proposed for sys-
| temic catarrh, and great deal Of vel
| liable time wasted in experimenting,
with other remedies. But it still re-
mains true that Peruna is the only spa-
cif1c remedy for the after-effects of Ia
grippe. The demand for this remedy,
in consequence of the present epidemic
Of Ia grippe, is enormous.
Mr.. j. P. Lowery, proprietor City Hotel
Albany, Texas, says: ''Beiafs, advised to
try Peruna for la grippe and asthma, L
did SO with good results. / had been
feeling very unwell for a long time, ard
had asthma quite bad till came West,
when got better of the asthma, but WAS
not well. tried a great many remedies
for it, but nothing was able to cure me.
81 took three bottles of Peruna and J.
am happy to say that it is the best med
icine l ever used. / am satisfied that
Peruna is a good medicine, and as such
have commended it to several of my
| friends with good results. It. is seldom
l give testimonial, but think this due
you. I hope others may be benefited
through you and your medicines"
Every one should read DR.. Nartman's
latest lecture on ia grippe. This lecture
will be sent free by The Peruna Medicine
Company, Columbus, Ohio.

Brave Enough to Shoot.

On last Friday night just before Mr..
J. NJ. Tillery reached home from church
he heard Run-shot at bis house.
Hurrying in to see what was the trou-
BILE he learned that some one had been
to his wife's window after she had I'M
dressed and retired and had whispered
or mumbled words that caused her to
become frightened. She seized this
gun and tried to shoot but the gun
was unloaded. She secured shells and
loaded and fired as soon as she could.
Mr.. Tlllery at once set about track
ing the villain who had disturbed his
home. He secured, Mr.. G. w. Dunn's
blood-hounds and soon found the trail,
which led to colored woman's house
near named Vaughan. The trail was
lost and the hunting party went back
to the street and sat upon some steps
of an old store. It was getting late
and soon some cOlored boys came by
and Ben Vaughan, the son OF the wo-
man to whose house the trail was made,
babe the boys good night and turned
towards home. Mr.. Dunn called to
him and asked him to come there
Ben at once said, az am not going to
run, Mr.. Dunn" Then placing the
other boys between himself and Mr..
Dunn and Mr.. Tillery he ran. He was
fired at but missed. The dogs were
united and put on his track and he
was run to the house OF John Horton,
colored man livingjn the neighbor-
hood. Bon was arrested and brought
to trial Saturday. He was tried before
Justice ]. A. Perry and placed under
$500 bond. OF course he could not
give it and was sent to Jail. One strong
point of evidence was a stool under
Mrs. Tiliery's win low which Ben
Vaughan's mother said was hers. Beu
went to church with some boys that
night and was with them after church,
but there was evidence that he did not
90 in church with the others.
Such conduct about the homes oil
the people ought to >be severely pun
ished.
