A Rare Old Medal.
Mr W W Bovd brought to this of-:
i
6ce lasf week an interesting old
medal that was ploughed up in his 1
field near Trio, It consists of a circular
piece of metal with a head or
etligy or. the obverse side and on the'
reverse side this inscription, fairly]
legible: ''The man who having saved i
the parent pleaded with success for
her children". On the obverse side i1
.1 1 1 il T i!.. I
above tne neau are me juauu name j
"Gulielinus" (William) and some '
other letters that could not be deciphered.
There is no date, but the 1
style of head dress of the effigy sug- '
gests the 18th century.
We are indebted to T M Gilland,
Esq., for the plausible explanation
that the medal was struck in commemoration
of William Pitt, Earl of
Chatham, whose distinguished services
saved the mother country,
(Englaud) and who pleaded with
success for her ch>ldren(the colonies).

Medicine Tastes Better.
One of the most unpleasant j
features of sickness is unpleasant j
medicine. But as the world
grows wiser medicine tastes better.
Among the leaders in this advance
is Scott's Emulsion. If is codIt
ver oil in fullest strength with
least taste.
(/heerupathy is the best school
of medicine.
A happy memory is the best
staff for old age. ,
A SURE THING.
It Is said that nothing Is sure except
death and taxes, hut that is not altogether
true. l>r King's New Discovery
for Consumption is a sure cure
for all lung and throat troubles.
Thousands eau testify to that. Mrs. C.
B. Van Metre of Shephenltown, W. Va.,
says "1 had a severe ease or Broncmtls
and for a year got no relief. One
bottle of I)r King's New Discovery
then cured me absolutely."
It's infallible for Croup.
Vl'h-*?plng Cough, Grip, Pneumonia
and Consumption. Try it. It's
guaranteed by D C Scott, Druggist.

OUR FLAG CONTEST.
tf<>niiiiiic<l from page 1)
ler of Virginia, grand -daughter of
ex-President John Tyler.
The United States claimed that
the act of hoisting a Confederate
flag was open rebellion, and made
haste to subdue it. Around the
"Stars aud Bars" rained slue and
ahell wherever it appeared, and in
the smoke of battle it was often
mistaken for the United States flag.
So Gen Beauregard designed a battle
flag, a plain red flag with two
stripes of bine studded in white
stars running criss-cro# throngh its
center.
The strong defense of Southern
rights promised fair to win the argued
question of Secession, and on
May 1st, 1863, the Confederate Cougress
held at Richmond, Va., adopted
a National flag of the Confederacy.
which was simply the battle
flag placed upon a pure white
sq uare.
"When it fell limp around the
staff it looked like a flag of truce at
a distance and not wishing "to show
the white feather," a band of red
" ??a oonvi/1 An o/]rrn ma L* i n ry (ho

white strips smaller.
This fourth flag was short-lived^
being used only about a month before
the surrender at Appomattox
Court house, Ya., still it remains the
National flag of the Confederate
States.
The South suffered untold agon-;
but the healer. Time, in binding up
the deep wounds and rents caused
by the great civil jar has drawn
cords of patriotic love closer about
the Federal and Southern hearts.
They in one grand chorus proclaim,
"United we stand; divided we fall".

(In no history used in our public
schools can I find any description of
the flag of the Confederate States of
America. But thanks to Hon It C

of Secession with my great

A STARTLING TEST.
To save a life, Dr. T O. Merrltt. of
No. Mehoopany. Pa., made a starting
te*t resulting in a wonderful cure.
He writes, "a patient was attacked
with violent hemorrhages, caused by
ulceration of the stomach. I had
often found Electric Bitters excellent
for acute stomach and liver troubles

Over-Work Weakens
Your Kidneys.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
All the blood In your body passe* through
your kidneys once every three minutes.
rw? ^ The kidneys are your
n b'00^ purifiers, they fliter
out the waste or
r tmPur'tles ln the blood.
. If they aresick or out
l| of order, they fall to do
Xj' 1 'heir work.
i Pains, aches and rheu/
I ii \ Ua U matism come from ex
cess of uric acid in the
. . ?<3 blood, due to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidneypoisoned
blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their beginning
in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is
soon realized. It stands the highest for its j
wonderful cures of the most distressing cases
and is sold on its merits f^LTr
by all druggists in fiftycent
and one-dollar sizes.

sample bottle by mail Home of swamp-Boot

out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.

Notice to Delinquents.
A considerable number of
names of persons in arrears to
The Record are being dropped
from the list. This is no
reflection upon them, it may
be that they are perfectly
good for their debts and intend
to pay them, but the
Record cannot afford to con '
tinue the paper to those who
are in arrears and who have paid
nothing lately and have said
nothing about paying. .
Subscriptions are payable in
advance. Some of the names
to be dropped are of persons .
who subscribed within the
past six months, but who have
forgotten to pay. Of course
The Record will be glad
to have these subscribers,
all of them, to pay up and to !
continue the paper to them.
It will be continued even to
those who give us reason to
believe that they intend to
pay next fall. Those who get
the paper, pay nothing and
say nothing, need not be offended
when the paper stops.
