While out hunting on Friday,
Dec. 9th. Mr.. Boss Norwood,
aged about 20 years, accidentally
shot himself, inflicting a fatal
wound. He carried a double
barrel shot gun with both ham,
mers cooked and in some way
one of the barrels was discharged
the force of which turned the
barrels around discharging the
other barrel, the load taking eff
feet in his thigh. The wadding
and pieces of his pants was TAX
en- from the wound. He linger-
ed until Saturday night, Jan.
4th, when death relieved him of
his sufferings. DIR. Taylor, Of
Bynum, attended the young man
and done all in his power to save
him, but alas, the death angel
called for him and he answered.
1t is said that blood poison was
the cause Of his untimely death.
He was held in high esteem by
all who knew him. He was a
son of Mr.. A. R. Norwood, the
chairman Of the County Board of
Education of Chatham county.
The remains of the unfortunate
young man were buried Monday
at Mt. Pleasant church.
1t is sad to give up one whose
influence among men would
doubtless have been for good;
who by precept and example was
so well calculated to spread
abroad the blessed influence of
goodly living. Yet He who doeth
all.things well. makes no mis-
takes. The human link snapped
asunder on earth is forged anew
in heaven. The yearning par
ents mourn not as one without
hope. It Is true that when beau
tiful youth is gone not much Of
life remains: hence the dear ones
eyes are closed to all earthly
trials. In his springtime of en-
thusiasm and tenderness, ere the
Sunshine of hope and Joy was ex-
tinguished. he passed to the glo-
rious beyond. Chapu! i'll News.

A sublime AnaIysl. of Christ.

The Man of Galilee. A New En- quiry. By George R. Vending. To the thousands of people who have heard the eloquent and crystal clear analysis of the divinity of Christ by the lecturer. George R. Vending. will now be added hundreds of thousands of others who can obtain the lecture in book form. It has just been is- sued as one of series on modern doubt by MT. Vending.
 It may be asserted with confidence that the forceful reasoning and the beautiful figures of the speaker lose nothing in their translation to type. MT. Vending has edited his. work with a careful and discriminating hand. He Is a master of style-simple. lucid. dramatic, compelling. Under his skillful treatment, the character of the Nazarene stands out before us with a vividness that is startling. His arguments are sent straight at the target of agnosticism and skepticism. The most confirmed doubter cannot but feel the force of his logic. although there may be a few who will differ with the lecturer in his conclusions.
 The analysis that MT. Vending ap- plies to the character, the antecedents and the history of the Galilean ii unique, reverential and comprehensive
 
 of the mans life as portrayed in the four gospels, piece by piece he weighs the testimony which the critical stu. dent brings to bear on this supremt topic, until he arrives at the peak oi his reasoning-..tha Christ cannot bC otherwise than divine, cannot bS otherwise than the Son of God. Mir Vending demonstrates himself to bS thoroughly familiar with the moderr | skeptics, large and small. and th' | logic wherewith they sustain q, theil contentious. He even uses their owr arguments at times to sustain hii own points.
 The book Is one that should b, read by every Christian as an infinite
 strengthener to his faith, and b! every skeptic as comprising clear-cu | logic, many deductions of which ar, | absolutely irrefutable. It deserves { hearing, too. solely on its Iiterar! merits. s.CPublications by Olcott Pub fishing Company. Washington.)

uetting Rid Of Whiskey Considers Money Spent The Best Investment He Ever
 Made.

I think the thing for a man to do. when he finds. he has to have whiskey to feel good, is to go to your Sanato- rum and take treatment. He will find the amount he spends for treatment the best investment he ever made. The party who wanted prices on Home Treatment decided he would quit with out aid, but I notice he is still drink ing, and I think he will either order Home Treatment or go to the Sanato- rum soon. Give my best regards to all connected with the Sanatorium. With best wishes for yourself and the
