mark of Scott's Emulsion,
and is the synonym for
strength and purity. It is sold
in almost all the civilized coun
tries of the globe.
If the cod fish became extinct
it would be a world-wide calam
ity, because the oil that comes
from its .liver surpasses all other
fats in nourishing and life-giving
properties. Thirty years ago
the proprietors of Scott's Emul
sion found a way of preparing
cod liver oil so that everyone can
take it and get the full value of
the oil without the objectionable
taste. Scott's Emulsion is the
best thing in the world for weak,
backward children, thin, delicate
people, and all conditions of
wasting and lost strength.

Death of Urs. ?. L. Bmnsou
After a brief illuees, a fatal at
tack of pneumonia, Mrs. -A. L.
Brunflon of Cleora is no more.
What has been said td be one of
the saddest occasions to those who
were present in mauy days, were
the last obsequies hela over the
remains of this beloved wife and
mother at Antioch ou Friday
afternoon. There- was present a
large number of relatives and
friends from the community and
from Edgefield, who saw the ro
mains placed beside the grave of
Lucretia who had gone to the bet
ter laud just five mouths ago. I*
was this grief as much as any
other cause that hastened this de
voted mother to her last resting
place. Mrs. Brunson had been a
member of Autioch church for
many years.. Mr. Littlejohn, her
?as tor, Mr. Mealing, Mr. Burgees
and Mr. Burts were present and
assisted at the funeral. All the
immediate family bad reached
the bedside while they could still
be recogu'zed, ard it was the
brctbere of Mr. and Mrs. Brunsou
who carried the body to the grave.
Mrs. Brunsou is survived by her
husband and three daughters,
Mrs. Susan Hill,Mrs. Wade Coth
rr.n of Abbeville, Migs Cleora
