 Horace Summerhill, as had been his habit lately, carried bottle of whisky in his pocket and as soon as he reach ed the picnic grounds commenced drink ing After dinner his temper had be- come ugly and Waits had persuaded him to leave the crowd and go down to the spring at some distance off. On their way they passed an old man who was employ ed by Waits father, lying under a. tree asleep. Summerhill commenced to turn him over with his foot and kick him in such a rough manner that Waits was compelled to interfere. Come on Hor- ace" he said you cannot treat that old man like that" and taking him by the arm pulled him away towards the spring After little Summerhill made an excuse to leave Waits. but soon re- turned with a pistol in hds hand

 "All right" he replied. you will have to kill me, for I am unarmed."
 With this Summerhill fired and after his frend had fallen, continued to do so with deliberate aim until he had emptied his revolver. He then fled and as soon as a posse could be collected, Col. Sam Ives, who was at that time sheriff of Lauderdale county, went in pursuit After several days Summerhill was overtaken in the hills beyond Gravelly Springs and in his effort to escape, stabbed a brother of Sheriff Ives, who was one of the posse. He was brought to Florence and put in the jail, but the war breaking out soon after he was given a chance te enlisthn the Confederate army which he did But justice though deferred was not to be cheated of her due. When hostilities were over Summerhil returned to his home, his crime, though not forgotten, being considered in man ner expiated by his service in the army For a time all went well until his bruta nature again asserting itself, he whipped to death a small boy who had displeased | him.

WHAT SULPHUR DOES
For the Human Body in Health and
 Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and grand-mothers gave us our daily dose of sulphur and molasses every spring and Tall.
 If was the universal spring and fall ,"blood purifier" tonic and cure-all, and mind you, this old-fashioned remedy was not without merit.
 The idea was good, but the remedy was crude and unpalatable, and a large quan- tity had to be taken to get any effect NNowadays we get all the beneficial ef- offect of sulphur in palatable, concen- trated form so that a single grain is far more effective than tablespoonful of the crude sulphur.
 In recent years research and experi- ment have proven that the best sulphur for medicinal use is that obtained from Calcium Calcium Sulphide) and sold in drug stores under the name of Stuart's s Calcium Waters. They are small choco- late coated pellets and contain the active medicinal principle of sulphur in highly concentrated effective form.
 Few people are aware of the value of this form of sulphur in restoring and maintaining bodily vigor and health; sul- phl. acts directly on the liver. and ex- cretory organs and purifies and enriches the blood by the prompt elimination of waste material.
 
 dosed us with sulphur and molasses every spring and fall, but the crudity and im- purity of ordinary flowers of sulphur were often worse than the disease, and cannot compare with the modern concentrated preparations of sulphur. of which Stuart's Calcium Waters Is undoubtedly the best and most widely used.
 They are the natural antidote for liver and kidney troubles and cure constipa- tion and purify the blood in a way that often surprises patient and physician alike.
 Dr. R. NJ Wilkins while experimenting with sulphur remedies soon found that the sulphur from Calcium was superior to any other form. He says: For liver. kidney and blood troubles, especially when resulting from constipation or malaria. I have been surprised at the re- suits obtained from Stuarts Calcium Waters. Iii patients suffering from boils and pimples and even deep-seated car buncles, have repeatedly seen them dry up and disappear in four or five days. leaving the skin clear and smooth. AL though Stuart's Calcium Waters is a pro- prietary article. and sold by druggists, and for that reason tabooed by many physicians, yet I know of nothing so safe and reliable for constipation, liver and kidney troubles and especially in all forms of skin disease this remedy"
 At any rate people who are tired of hills. cathartics and so-called blood ''purifers' will find in Stuart's Calcium Wafers far safer. more palatable and oA>ativa pEapArataAn-
