Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more generally needed in the Spring, when the languid exhausted feeling prevails, when the liver, is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and alterative is felt A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps bilious fevers. No medicine will act more surely in counteracting and freeing the system from the malarial poison. Headache, Indigestion,Constipation, Dizziness yield to Electric Bitters.

In the issue of May 2, 1895 of your valued paper under the heading “She Will Tend the Grave,-’ appears state ments, which to say the least had there origin in the imagination of some fertile mind who, perhaps, would have more of a success in writing cheap and thrilling novels rather than chronicling the ac count of such a sad death as the one re ferred to therein. It is not my desire to in any way speak lightly of the service rendered by the “old nurse,” but simply to give a correct statement of the facts. This “old nurse” lives and has lived in Newbern for many years, and I think all her life. She had only been with Mrs. Hamilton for about three weeks prior to her death. The "sad event occurred in Asheville on April 27, 1895. About the first of April Mr. Hamilton wrote me to send this “old nurse” to Greenville, to be with his wife, if she would go, accordingly she left Newbern for Greenville and from thence to Ashe ville, about one week later. As to Mr. Hamilton desiring to send the “old nurse” away to her brother it never entered his mind, as he never knew she had a brother. He got her from Newbern, and never an idea of sending or taking her to any other place entered his mind. She has three daughters living here. As to the “old nurse” not eating for two days and nights, I must state, that is not true. At Asheville she was provided with a lunch basket from which he ate regularly, and at Raleigh she was given money to obtain anything further she might need. As to her coming to New bern to care for the grave of the “dead mistress.” I presume that she will con tinue iu the future as well as the past to live here, even unto her death. I have no doubt but that in her memory will live the fondest recollection of the one whose death all who knew her mourn, there are too many loving friends here but to aliow the last existing place of the loved one to be other than cared for. Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton were here from Massachusetts in 1890, and for one or two years after this the “old nurse” assisted from time to time, Mrs. Hamil ton to nurse an invalid sist r, who died in 1893. In March, 1894, Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton moved to Greenville, N. C., where they have lived since, and the “old nurse” remained here until April, 1895. It is with a feeling of deepest regret that I feel it my duty to write this expla nation, but knowing all the facts as I do, and knowing how keenly the bereaved husband feels his loss, I could but state the facts, that a sympathizing public might feel for him who hath lost the brightest jewel on earth to him, and in justice to him, I hope you will publish this statement. Ido not presume, for one moment, that the writer of the article referred to had an idea of wounding the feelings of any one, but it does seem to me that be fore such an article should have ap peared, that at least a careful examina tion of the facts should have been made, and not the hearsay statements of some gossiping servant, who, no doubt, added enough to picture one of her own race much above the ordinary human being, I hope that none of us fail to appreciate faithfulveness in our fellow beings and I know that Mr. Hamilton has done his full duty by the “old nurse” and appre ciates all she did for his loved ones dur ing their lives, besides the pecuniary con siderations paid her for all services ren dered. The statement made by the Raleigh correspondent of the Wilmington Mes* senger had no fact correctly stated in reference to this matter, and I know that it would be a satisfaction to Mr. Hamilton if the Messenger would copy this statement of facts and thereby do for him that which he so justly desires. No one knows Sam Hamilton who does not know him to be a faithful friend and a true man, and who was at all times a most faithful and devoted husband. P. H. Pelletier. Marvelous Results. From a letter written by Rev. J. Gun derman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are permitted to make this extract: “I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. King’s New Discovery, as the results were al most marvelous in the case of my wife. While I was pastor of the Baptist Church at Rives Junction she was brought down with Pneumonia succeeding La Grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing would last hours with little interruption and it seemed as if she could not survive them. A friend recommended Dr. Kings New Discovery; it was quick in its work and highly satisfactory in results.” Trial bottles free at John Y. Macßae’s drug store. Regular size 50c. and fl. A Bad State ol Adairs. The people of the South are being deceived in the purchase of immitation medicines. It’s poor consolation to a sick man to be told that the medicine of fered him certainly won’t do him any harm. Wrong; it will do great harm. It allows the dis ease to progress instead of stop ping it, and this is most danger ous, because the disease will soon be beyond cure. This is the best reason why you should be sure to get the right medicine. Don’t risk your health in trying any of the many Liver Medicines which sprung up in ihe South to be sold in place of Simmons Liver Regulator, put up by J. H. Zeilin & 00., with the Red Z on every package, this was the medicine of your fathers, and they lived long. Have nothing to do with anything else, or any druggist or dealer who would persuade you that the many imitations under different names are just as good. It’s not true.
