The association of ladies which year in and year out has had charge of this an- nual task of devotion have spared neither time nor pains to make the occasion a success. Gov. James K. Vardaman of Mississippi has accepted the invitation te deliver the address on the occasion, and more than ordinary interest is being evinced in the arrangements Maj. D. M. Scott will act as grand marshal and has appointed long list of prominent aides. The exercises will take place in Live Oak cemetery, the speaking occurring from the porch of the Rest house, which is lo- eated near the base of the Soldiers monu- ment.
 Death of Good Woman. Yesterday morning occurred the death of Mrs M. M. Bill, one of Selma's most highly esteemed and oldest residents. She was the relict of Wells R. Bill, who died many years ago. Wednesday afternoon last, while walking to the refrigerator on | the back porch, having been i'll for a number of weeks, she tripped and fell, the blow inducing a shock from which 1 she never revived. She is survived by four children Mrs. Ida DeCamp and Miss An nie Bill of this city Mrs. Joseph M. Ded- man of Columbia, Tenn, and Mrs. D. c. | DeMoss of Bellview, Tenn. The funeral will take place Sunday morning at 10 o'clock from the late residence of the de- ceased on Lauderdale street. To Put Asphalt On. ! Monday the Memphis Asphalt and Paw ing company will commence laying as- l phalt on the concrete foundation laid on 1 Broad street from Water to Selma In a 1 few days the street will be opened for traffic and there will be seen what a diff ference the paving of selma's streets make in the appearance of the city. l Give Splendid Performance.

Woman Terribly Burned.

Statesville, Jan. 80. Miss
Martha Gillespie, an aged maiden
lady, was horribly burned to-day
about noon at the home of her
nephew and niece, Mr.. Frank
Mennis, three miles east of
Statesville. She was alive at z
O'Clock this evening but is not
expected to live through the
night.
Miss Gillespie had been stand
ing in front of an open fireplace
and left the house to look after
some work in the yard. When
about 80. yards from the house
she found that her dress was or
fire and screamed for help. Fan.
ned by a strong wind, the flames
soon enveloped her, and by the
time Mr.. Mennis reached her hel
clothes were in flames from head
to foot. Mr.. Mennis made a des.
perate effort to jerk the burning
garments from the victim and in
doing so his hands were badly
burned. His efforts were unsuc.
cessful and every stitch Of cloth
ing was burned while on hel
body, together with her hair.
Quilts were wrapped around
the suffering::woman and she was
carried into the house. Drs. F. L
Sharpe and R. A. Campbell wer.
hurriedly called and did all ir
their power to relieve the terrible
agony Of the woman, but they
consider the case hopeless. The
skin Of four-ffths Of her BODY ha
been burned to a crisp. and thu
physicians state that her body i
in the most horrible condition O
any living person they have eve
seen.

frightened and in attempting to
stop the runaway, young Whita-

his head, which caused very
painful injury.
The other two young men and

Asks us to Print.

To relieve the worst forms of
Rheumatism, take teaspoonful of
the following mixture after each
meal and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup of Sarsa-
pailla. three ounces.
These harmless ingredients con
be obtained from our home druggist
and can be easily mixed by shaking
them we'll in bottle. Relief is
generally felt from the first few dos
es.
This prescription forces the clog
ged up inactive kidneys to filler and
strain from the blood the poisonous
waste matter and uric acid, which
causes Rheumatism.
AS Rheumatism is not only the
most painful and torturous disease,
but dangerous to life. this simple
recipe will no doubt be greatly val
ned by many sufferers her e at home
who should at once prepare the mix
ture to get this relief.
1t is said that a person who would
take this prescription regularly, a
dose or two daily, or even few
times week, would never have SER
ious kidney or Urinary disoi ders or
Rheumatism.
Cut this out and preserve it.
Good Rheumatism prescriptions
which really relieve are scarce, in
deed, and when you need it you
want it badly.
