The Pain
Family

You know them; they are
numerous, and make their
presence felt everywhere. The
names of the family are Head
ache, Toothache, Earache,
Backache, Stomach ache, Neu-
ralgia, etc. They are sentinels
that warn you of any derange-
ment of your system. When
the brain nerves become ex-
hausted or irritated, Headache
makes you miserable; if the
stomach nerves are weak, in
digestion results, and you
double up with pain, and if the
more prominent nerves are at
fected, Neuralgia simply makes
life uncomfortable. The way 10
stop pain is to soothe and
strengthen the nerves. DR..

Obituary.

j. G. Turley died in his Goth year
at his home in Crittendeu Co., near
Caldwell Springs, the home which
he inherited from his father Green

since childhood. Sept. 10th, 1906,
he was buried at Caldwell Spring
cemetery by the side of his first wife.
Mr.. Turley was twice married, first
to Miss Olive McElroy, of Critten-
den Co, and last to Miss Lille May
Bell, of Lyon Co. He leaves eight
children, three by his first marriage
and five by his last. Mr.. Turley was
man who had many friends as was
manifested by the large number of
friends and neighbors who thronged
his home during his sickness and
followed his remains to the last rest
ing place. Although considered ir-
religious daring his life, it is be-
lieved that IN his final illness he be-
came reconciled to the will of his
master and his spirit passed out to
home of rest. His widow, children
and ne;ghbors will sadly miss him
from among them and can only look
forward to II reunion beyond the
grave A FRIEND.
