------ --------- DEATH OF G. N. WARD.
He Was a Highly Esteemed Young
 Citizen of Abbeville.

Abbeville. Nov 1i.-tSpecial. )-Georg' Newman Ward son of Hon. John B Ward, died this morning at o'clock, af' ter a long illness,
 While not unexpected the intelligence of this beloved young mans death came as a heavy shock to his friends There has never been a sadder death In Abbe' vile for never was brighter light shut ont than when George Ward, young, bril- liant, and in the early morning of noble manhood reached out his arms to lov- ing Father to obtain that promised rest
 With a brave heart and sweet smile of resignation, he had for some time been waiting the summons and today many a tear has fallen-loving tributes to him whom every man, woman and child loved and respected.
 Mir. Ward was one of the most brilliant and promising young men of his age in the State, being but T years old, and had he been spared there ts no doubt but that he would have made his name Illus trious.
 About eleven months ago he was mar ried to Miss Mamie Craft. young lady of exceptional musical talent. and who is teacher of music in the college at this place. The funeral service, conducted by

COST $i2.00 Advice That Was Worth It.

'I was once a slave to the coffee habit, and became almost a confirmed invalid by drinking It." says Mir c. H. Aitken of Whiting, N J.
 "I tried to break away from coffee but every time I stopped, I suffered from se- were sick headaches and for relief went back to coffee again, only in the end to suffer from extreme nervousness and se- were bilious attacks.
 I became so irritable that I made life miserable for my family and myself. Finally went to New York to consult a specialist. After thoroughly questioning and examining me. he said I must give up drinking coffee as it had greatly un- dermined my health. and he further said that coffee killed more people than rum. I laughed at him. but he said 1t was the truth and that in his practice he had seen many evil effects from coffee drink ing.
 He said 1t was of no use to prescribe for me unless I gave up coffee, and recom- mended that I use Postum Food Coffee. which he highly recommended. He cherg- ed me SIP for his advice which thought rather high priced at the time, but today think 1t very cheap. I bought several packa ges of Postum from the grocer and 1t was the best days work I ever did for myself
 had a pot of Postum made for my supper that night: that was in the spring of 1898 and I have drank 1t ever since with the best of results to my health. The sick headache and nervousness I suf- fered from drinking coffee have entirely gone: I am never bilious and have in- creased in weight; have a happier dis position and am much more agreeable company to my family and friends
