One of the ojiiest, safest and most fa- orably known remedies in the world to-day is Brandreth's Fills a blood puri fier ana laxative. Heine purely vegeta ble they can be used by old r young with perfect safety and while other reme- les require increased doses and finally cease acting altogether, with brandreth's Tills the same dose always lias the same effect no matter Iiow long they are taen. One or two pills taken ach ni-jht for a while is the best iliing known for any one troubled wii.li constipation, indiges tion, ayspepsia or any trouble arising from an impure state of the blood. Brandreth's Tills have been in use for over a century and are sold in every druj; and medicine store, either plain or star-coated. Resolutions ol Respect. Tbe members of the Women's Home Missions Society of Rowland M E. c urch, impelled by a sense of their great loss in the Lath of Mrs. Bettie Gibs n Bradley, have adopted the follow ing resolutions: Realizing that this peculiarly sad be reavement falls heaviest on onr beloved pastor, we extend 'to bim our svinpathy and pledge him our prayers that he may find comfort where comfort alone can be found in the tender love of our Heavenly Father. As a Society we wish to express our appreciation of the work done by our loved sister. Her readiness to undertake and her zeal in accomplishing cannot be too highly prosed. We feel that her service as an officer in our auxiliary have greatly forwarded the success of our en terprises. As co-workers with her in a christian organization we fee! that we have a right to speak of her fine christian life, wherein she was an example worthy for us to follow and we commend to others that life and spirit. . And still in our grief we claim the right to hold deep in our hearts the sac red joy of an assurance that her life con tinues iu that world where death never comes. That this expression of our love and respect be recorded on the minutes of our society, a copy sent to the family and one to the Raleigh Christian Advo cate and Robesonian for publication. Mrs. W. H.

After a most careful examination we have been convinced that wj have iouud the best field fence made. Below we give some of the points of advantage which we claim for it. It You Are Looking for a Fence That will Stand Hard Usage; That will not sag down or curl over on the top; That has stays that will notfslip; " ' That will conform to uneven ground; That has no slack wires; That does not require an expert to erect; That is Low in Price Then Read What We Guarantee! 1 The stays are Electrically Welded to stranda, forming a perfect union and an amalgamation with the strands not found in any other fence. 2 No wr .ps to get loose, or ho'd moisture Sud cause rust 3 No projections to injure stock or tear wool from sheep. 4 Stronger at the joints than any other fence; welded together by electricity. 5 Guaranteed that the wi e is not injured a., the joints. 6 Guaranteed adjustable to uneven ground. 7 Guaranteed that says will not separate irom siranas. 8 Guaranteed all right in every particular. 9 Made by the most modern process and on the latest improved machinery. -""mo Most of the weak points in other fences ar on account of the way the stays are fastened. Our stavs are amalgamated with the strands by means of electricity and the strength of the fence increased ahundred fold over the strength of a fencewhere the stays are wrapped or clamped on the strands. If by this time you are interested, come and see our fence and get in your order. If 'you are skeptical come and be convinced. We add oar personal guarantee to everything claimed for it and would be pleased to submit prices. Don't f?il to see us before buying your Fencing. Don't put it off until you are ready to use it, but place your order in advance, as we cannot cary all sizes in stock. Tne MGfliiisier Hardware Go; Lumberton. N. C. .
