A LOSS TO THE COMMUNITY.
Mr. J. J. M. Graham, Jr., an Old and
Respected Citizen, Dies Near Cades
Atiotker of the k$old guard" has
passed away in the death of Mr.
J. J. M. Graham, Sr., which occured
at his home near Cades some
time during Thursday night of
last week. Mr. Graham was one
ot our oldest citizens, being 78
years of age at the time ot hit
death, lie was a man of integrity
and one ot a class not so common
as in antebellum days, whose word
was as good as his bond. Being
a lifelong member of the Methodist
church, he walked uprightly
in the sight of God and man
throughout his long career.
Although Mr. Graham bad Ween
severely ill some weeks ago, his
general health appeared much
better and no one had an idea
that he would so soon be called to
answer the dread summons. On
the day before his death he had
remarked to his son that he was
feeling unusually well. The next
morning he was found dead in his
bed. As calmly and peacefully as
a tired child he fell into the sleep
that knows no waking till the
resurrection morn.
Mr. Graham leaves three children:
Mrs. J. P. Epps, Mrs, J. T.
McElveen and Mr. J. J. M. Graham,
Jr.
In the midst of his bereaved rela
tives and sorrowing friends he was
laid to rest in the family buryingground'on
the Saturday following
his death. The funeral services
were conducted bv Kev. William
Rufl.

A GOOD RECOMMENDATION'.
"I have noticed that the sale on Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets
is almost invariably to those who have
once used them," says Mr. J. H. Weber,
a prominent druggist of Cascade,
Iowa, What better recommendation
could any medicine have than for people
to call for it when again in need of
such a remedy? Try them when you
feci dull after eating, when you have
a bad taste in your mouth, feel bilious,

A Little Boy's -life Saved.
I hare a few words to say regarding
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It
saved iuj little boy's life and I feel
that I cannot praise it enouzb. I
bought a bottle of it from A. E. Steere,
of Goodwin, S. D., and when I got
home with it the poor baby could
hardly breathe I gave the medicine
as directed every ten minutes until he
"threw up" and then I thought sure
he was going to choke to death. We
had to pull the phlegm out of his
mouth in great long strings. I am
positive that if I had not got that hot
tie of cough medicine, my boy would
not be on earth to-day?Joel Demont.

gave her Chamberlain's Cough Remedy

days she was well and able to go to
school. 1 have used this remedy in my
family for the past seven years and
have never known it to fail," says
James Pendergast. merchant, Annato
