A MYSTERY.
MR. CLAUDE F. WILSON, OF THE WILSON
ADVANCE HAS
PEARED.
STRANGELY DISAP-
Necessary to a choice, 223.
Shlloh'H Consumption Cure
This is beyond question, the most
successful Cough Medicine we have ever
sold, a few doses invariably cure the worst
cases of Cough, Croup and Bronchitis,
while its wonderful success iu the cure of
Consumption is without a parallel in the
history of medicine. Since its first dis
covery it has been sold on positive
guarantee, a tost which no other medi
cine can stand. If you have a cough we
earnestly ask you to try it. Price 10c,
,0r- n"d 51. If your hums are sore,
The readers of The Advasce will regret
to know that Mr. Claude F. Wilson
who has boen editor of this paper has left
Wilson. The circumstances of his de
parture are shrouded in mystery. He
left Wilson Sunday morning, October
30th, on the 3 o'clock train, without
telling any one that ho was going, and
went to Weldon. He has not since been
heard from and there was at first much
fear that he had come to an untimely
cud. But it is now believed that he
departed deliberately for some cause that
is not yet fully explained. II e owed
some debts, but his creditors were not
pressing him and he had friends who
would have gladly assisted him in any
financial stress. A few weeks ago he
re:eived a note, said to be from Gideon's
Band, threatening his life. Some think
that this so frightened him that he be
came temporarily crazed, and while in
this condition, he took the train and went
away to escape the threatened death. We
hazard no uucs-s at tho cause ut ins sud
den and unexplained departure, hoping
that the reason advanced that he was
suffering from temporary insanity may
turn out to bo the correct one It N the
ouly theory urged that is cout,istetu with
the commence that has been placed
him by tho people of ilaun. Ills family
have boen greatly distressed as he lei
them no word and hi- mother hns almost
been crushed under the Mow. It is the
most inexplicable affair ever known in
this part of North Carolina, for Mr.
Wilson is a young man ot unquestioned
talent aud capacity. He had a fine
openiug here aud no young man in the
State ever enjoyed more advantages to
win a successful and useful career. It is
sad that a career that promised so much
ended so mysteriously and disastrously,
and that his reputation rests under a
cloud. Wilsou Advance.
THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION.
NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
From the establishment of this gov
ernment to the present time, there has
eon no period in the history of our
commonwealth in which the Supreme
Ruler of the Universe has uioie richly
bestowed upon us His blessings, or indi
cated more clearly His purpose to pre
serve for us our civil and religious liberties.
To the author of all good we owe what
ever of peace, prosperity, or happiness
we have enjoyed during the past year.
The people of North Carolina have much
for which to be thankful, and, while the
earth has not yielded her greatest abund
ance, our people are yet blessed with a
moderate and reasonable return for their
labors.
In conformity, therefore, with the re
commendation of the President of the
Uaited States, I, Thomas M. Holt, go-
crnor of the State of North Carolina, do
appoint Thursday, the twenty-fourth
day of November, 1892, as a day if
thanksgiving, praise and prayer. And
do earnestly request that the people i .
our State lay aside all secular businei-.-
and assemble on that day, at their usuu
places of worship, in humble thanksgiv
ing for past blessings and a prayer foi
continuance of Divine favor.
In order that our sen ice may be more
pleasing aud acceptable, let us remember
in our prayers and substantial offerings
the needs of the widow and orphan, the
disabled soldier, the poor and afflicted
and all institutions established throughout
the State for their proper cure and
maintenance.
Given under my hand, and the Great
Seal of the State of North Carolina,
at the City of Raleigh, this eleventh
day of of November, in the year of
our Lord, one thousaud eight hun
dred and ninety-two, and in tho one
hundred and seventeenth year of our
American Independence.
Thomas M. Holt.
By the Governor.

" TO THE LADIES.
There are thousands of ladies through
out the country whose systems are poison
ed, and whose blood is in an impure
condition from the absorption of
impure matter, due to menstrual irregu
larities. This class arc peculiarly bene
fited by the wonderful tonic and blood
cleansiug properties of Prickly Ash, Poke
Root and Potassium (P. P, P.) Roses
and abounding health take the place of
the sickly look, the lost color and the
general wreck of the system by the use
of Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassi
um, as hosts of females will testify, and
many certificates are in r ossns.-ion of the
Company, which they have promised not
to publish, and all prove P. P. P. a bless
ing to womankind.
CAPT. J. D. JOHNSTON.
To all whom it may concern: I take
great pleasure iu testifying to the efficient
qualities of the popular remcdv for erup
tions of the skin known as P. P. P.
(Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium. )
I suffered several with an unsightly and
disagieeable eruption on my face, and
tried various remedies to remove it, none
of which accomplished the object, until
this valuable preparation was resorted to.
Alter taking three bottles, in accordance
with directions, I am now entirely cured.

Tobacco Cure
m
o
A CLICK and AliNOLtffK CUKE for the
TOBACCO HABIT!
Next to the whiskey traffic, It ia the
most expensive and loathsome habit of the
American people. The annual cost runs
up into millions. The average tobacco
user pays to gratify this unnatural appetite
from live to ten times more than he gives
to support the Church. Shame on us.
This Cure has not yet failed where the
party was iu earnest about quitting and
followed directions. Thousand have been
cnied of chewing, smoking and dipping.
Here are samples of certificates:

Messrs. Bhazeal a Co.:
Dear Sirs The tobacco tablet bought 01

either tor smoking or chewing. It did the
work in four days. Yours truly,
