Years.
Would to Heaven that the cry of dan

ears of all who unthinkingly buy aud
use such receptions and frauds.
Fortunately honest druggists despise
such worthless remedies and refuse to
sell them. They will tell you with candor
that Paine's Celery Compound is the
spring medicine they can recommend.
They know its composition, are ac-
quainted with the facts of marvellous cures
effected by it, and have seen its happy
results among their personal friends.
Can you. dear sufferer, hesitate to try
this disease-curing medicine? 1t has re
stored to health and the full enjoyment
of life tens of thousand whom doctors
were unable to cure. Mrs II. A. Welcher,

world what Paineis Celery Compound has
done for me. For % years ! have suffer

We ask for the cooperation of all the
preachers, teachers and others who are
the leaders of our people. It is time for
all of us to bestir ourselves and strive to
make better the condition of our people.

convicted of the murder of Nellie Cropsey
left here to day in charge Of Sheriff r. L.
Winslow, of Perquimans, to begin his 80
year sentence in the penitentiary ut
Raleigh. Previous to the arrival of the
officers at the Jail he offered to sell the
jailer a pistol, and to his amazement took
a 3S-calibre revolver from his pocket and
fired three shots, then gave it to the jailer.
He claims that he carried this pistol
during both trials. 1t was fastened to his
garter.
When the officers appeared he had to
be carried from the jail by force. He
cursed and swore at them, refused to wear
neat suit of clothes provided by his
father and insisted wearing old trousers
and worn shoes. He said to the sheriff:
II shall not stay at the penitentiary.
I shall be back here soon. A few embers
here, some houses there and match will

Horses Scarce and High.

have not known period when horses
were SO scarce or 50 high said T. E. Gil
bert, of Cincinnati, at the Hotel Barton.
II am in the business and have of late been
securing Kentucky and Ohio with view
of purchasing good size bunch, but had
very poor success. More people want to
buy than sell and prices are at point
where it is impossible for dealers to make
any profit. The country was drained of
horse flesh during our war with Spain ,and
further depletion was caused by the Boel
war. 1t will take several years to make
up the deficiency and high prices will con-
tinue. The automobile craze has had nc
perceptible effect on the demand for high
class animals, and I do not believe that il
will ever get so violent as to make people
indifferent to the delight of sitting behine
a pair of high steppers. ."-Washingtol

His Last HOPE Realized.
[From the Sentinel, GebO, Mon

From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.
In the first opening of Oklahoma to set
tiers in 1889, the editor of this paper was
among the seekers after fortune who made
the big race one fine day in April. During
his travelling and afterwards his camping
upon his claim, he encountered much bad
weather, which, together with the heat,
gave him severe diarrhea which seemed
almost impossible to check, and in June
the case became 80 bad he expected to die.
OAe day one of his neighbors brought him
one bottle of Chamberlain's collie, cholera
and diarrhea remedy as last hope. A
big dose was given him while he was roll
ing on the ground in agony, and in few
minutes the dose was repeated. The good
effect of the medicine was soon noticed
and within an hour the patient was taking
his first sound sleep for fortnight. That
little bottle worked complete cure, and
he cannot help but feel grateful. The
season for bowel disorders being at hand
suggests this. Sold by Bamberg Pharmacy.
