Chronic Diseases Require
Special Treatment for Their Cur,

When any acute disease, it matters not
what the nature of it may be, has passed
the sub-acute and more chronic form,
then entirely different treatment becomes
necessary TO effect cure. Especially is
this the case when dealing with the more
deep seated diseases and their complica-
tons. Years of special stuuy and expe-
rience and by the use of the latest I'M
proved instruments and methods the doc
tor IS enabled to more accurately dag
nose the disease and to successfully treat
large percentage of such cases which
has failed to yield to the ordinary meth
DDS Of treatment. IT, therefore, you have
been unable to find a cure cosuIt, DR.
Walker and he will tell you frankly
what he thinks can be done for you.

Sketch of Life of II. W. MCDer-
mott.

IuUtIs
Hugh w. McDermott answered
to his final call Friday, December
9th, 1907. Burial at Mt. Sterling
Sunday, Dec. 29th, 1907.
He was born in Richmond, Va,
Nov. 4th, 1919. When about 16
years of age he went 20 Nicholas
County, W. Va, near Summers
vile, where he spent most of his
younger life. He was very pros
porous stock trader and slave
owner; also was Sheriff of Nicholas
county two terms and was serving
his last term when the civil war
broke out and on account of his
strong sympathy with the Rebel
lion he left Nicholas county and
came to Kentucky, settling at
West Liberty, Morgan county.
At this place he engaged in the
coal and stave business. marketing
same at Cincinnati and intermedi-
ate points along Licking river.
He moved to Farmers, KY, about
the time the railroad was built to
that place where he engaged in the
hotel business. From there he
drifted to Salt Lick and about 22
years ago he settled at Olympia.
He was twice married. His
first wife was Miss Lemaster, of
Nicholas county, w. Va. Five
children were born to this union
2 now living-a crippled son, Ad-
Olson, and a daughter, Mrs. Ann
E. Raider, of Nicholas County,
w. Va. His last wife was Miss
Rebecca Ann Campbell, also of
Nicholas County, w. Va. Nine
children were born to this union
3 now living-Mrs. Newton John
son. of Grange City, KY, Mrs.
Jas. Horton, of Mt. Sterling, KY,
and Mrs. H. O. Irwin, Olympia,
KY.
His last wife died at Olympia,
KY, Dec. /, 1894. Since that
time he has been making his home
with his youngest daughter, Mrs.
H. o. Irwin.
! Uncle Mac or Grandpa, as every
body called him, was always ready
with smile and joke to meet his
many friends and at all times
ready to lend a helping hand in
sickness or in distress.
In the early part of his sickness
he confessed his faith in his
Saviour and died happy in the
thought.
In his old days he was not con-
tented to sit around and do moth
ing. 1t was his delight to assist in
household duties, garden work,
etc.
His many friends extend their
deepest sympathy to the bereaved
family in this, the hour of their
atfliction.
