town, was brought to Dr Brockinton
for treatment for a wound

That the child was not killed is
due only to the fact that the
bullet was spent when it struck

Pa&lAway at His Home lifter a
Lingering Illness. i
After a painful and lingering
illnessj lasting- many weeks,
Mr W White Kennedy, passed i
away at 4 o'clock a m., Monday, I
June 12, 1905, at his home six i miles
east of Cades. The fun- j
eral services took place at Hebron
church on Tuesday, at 11 a
m., being conducted by Rev J Bi
Traywick, after which the re-11
mains were interred in the 1
church-yard. Mr Kennedy was
45 years old and besides a num-1
ber of other relatives, is survived
by his wife and four children. !
While lorsome time lie realized
that his days were numbered.
Mr Kennedy met and overcame
the last enemy of mankind with
courage born of perfect faith
in his Savior and when the end
came lie fell on sleep calmly,
serenely and in the full conti
dence of a better life beyond, j
Those who ministered to his
needs as the sands of life ran
low, say that they never knew
of one so resigned, and at the
last he expressed the firm belief
that it was well with his
soul.
Mr Kennedy was highly es-.
teemed among his home people ,
aiw had many friends through-,
opt the county. He was a valuable
member of Hebron church
and had served as school trustee,
a member of the board of
equalizatu^ and in other positions
of trust, of which he discharged
the duties ably and conscientiously.
To the bereaved family, we
extend tenderest sympathy, as
in his death we feel the loss of
! a valued friend.

It was a huge task, to undertake
the cure of such a bad case of kidney
disease, as that of C F Collier,
of Cherookee, la., but Electric Bitters
did it. He writes: "My kidneys
were so far gone, I could not
sit on a chair without a cushion;aud *
suffered from dreadful backache,
headache, and depression. In Elec- ,
trie Bitters, however, I found a cure, 'j
and by them was restored to perfect
health. I recommend this great (
tonic medicine to all with weak kidneys,
liver or stomach. Guaranteed
by Dr W V Brockington, druggist;
price 50c.

Children's Day at Workman Methodist
Church.
Mouzons, June 12.?Crops
are looking" nice, although the
farmers have had a time battling
with grass; the most of
them have, however about got
rid of it.
Children's da)' exercises were
held in Workman Methodist
church Saturday, June 10. The
occasion was a success in every
respect. After the programme
had been well carried out, the
pastor, Rev B J Guess, announced
that there being a
scarcity of shade at the church,
dinner would be served in the
grove at Mr E S Kennedy's,
whose home is right at the
church. It was not very long
before some one said "dinner is
ready," and such a dinner!
Everything good to eat, and
plenty of it. If any one left
that table hungry, I think it
u-nc hie r?r hpr r*wn fault Ti>mnn
ade was plentiful, and everybody
seemed to be having- a
good time.
We congratulate the Sundayschool
of Workman M E church
for the success of their first
"Children's day" and hope that
every one may be as good as
the first?we know it can't le
any better.
There was preaching in the
afternoon by Mr Guess. A good
number of the crowd went back
to the church for the sermon,
which was very* interesting and
instructive.
