She went in the barn near the house of her cousin, where she had been staying for the past live months, placed a rope over the joist by standing on a barrel, then around her neck and jumped off the barrel. It is thought that she could have easily saved her own life even after she had jumped had she felt so Inclined. <i:> there was a wall near, to which she could have easily caught with her bands. On the barrel she left a note, di rected to her cousin. :.i which she gave instructions as to what disposi tion they should make of her body, She also mentioned the mune of the. young man with whom she had been going recently and It is supposed that she had been disappointed in a love affair. There seems to have been no other possible reason for the rash act. Her body will be sent to her home In North Carolina tomorrow for burial, The verdict of the coroner's jury which held an inquest over her body was that she hanged herself.?The Stata.

The cause of Rheumatism and kin dred diseases is an excess of uric acid in the blood. To cure this terrible disease this acid must he expelled and the system so regulated that no more acid will be formed in excessive quantities. Rheumatism is an internal disease and requires an internal reme dy. Rubbing with Oils and Liniments will not cure, affords only temporary relief at best, causes you to delay this proper treatment, allows the malady to get a firmer hold on you. Liniments may case the pain, but they will no ! more cure Rheumatism than paint will change the fibre of rotten wood. Science lias at last discovered a per. feet and complete cure, which is call ed "Rheumaclde." Tested in hundreds of cases, it has effected the most mar velous cures; we believe it will cure you. Rheumaclde "go's at the joints I from the inside," sweeps the poisons out of the system, tones up the stom ach, regulates the liver and kidneys and makes you well all over.
