Mrs. Reid said the gentleman came in and said that he wanted a room until to-morrow. He was shown up stairs and given a room. He asked that some water be sent up. A girl immediately carried up the water, and to his inquiry told hira that dinner was then ready. He told her to hurry out, as he wanted to take a bath. He closed the door suddenly, locked it, and when the girl reached the foot of the steps she heard the report of a Eistol. Several persons rushed up stairs, and reakingopen the door found Mr. Gaston lying in a pool or blood with a pistol in his hand." He was still breathing, but never spoke. The flow of b iOod was enormous. The shooting was done with a 38-calibre seven-shooter, which the unfortunate man had placed in his mouth and tired. The ball passed upward into the head and caused almost instantaneous death. In his pocket was found this note addressed to his brother, Dr. J. McF. Gaston : "Pulse 120 ; fever high.

You have a grease or soiled spot on your clothing, carpet or other fabric, you apply the Chinese Cleansing Cream, the spot disappears forever, leaving the fabric fresh and clean, as it will do in every case. That Chinese Cleansing Cream removes grease or other soiled spots is the fact here established. It is incontrovertible. You can't get around, under or over it. The combined forces of the world the fiesh and the devil cannot prevail against that fact. Chinese JCleansing Cream sold only at the Y. D. S. A Natural Law Foiled. You who chance these lines to read, "Be you clad in russet weed, Be you clothed in silken stole, Grave these counsels on thy soul." All things earthly will decay: Proofs lie thick along thy way.

The guarantee attaching to Longman <fc Martinez's Pure Prepared Paints is their bond, with Kuykendal, their local agent as surety, indemnifying every consumer purchasing from this agency against loss in their use.

I grew worse and worse until it was almost impossible for me to lie down and sleep at night for 18 months, owing to the severity of thecough. Theonly way I could sleep was in a chair, my head resting on a pillow on a table. Was treated by two physicians, and tried a number of patent medicines, all of which did no good. After having despaired of ever getting well, my wife consulted you by letter. You sent two bottles of your Dyspeptic Elixir ; in less time than three days I coula lie down and sleep as well as lever could in my life; a few bottles cured me perfectly. Yours truly, JOHN F.
