Many Sad Hearts in Henderson and Ox. ford The Funeral and Burial, The people of Oxford along with those of Henderson learned with sor row of the death of Mrs. Bal'ey Owen (nee Miss Eva Currln) which occurred Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the pretty home of her devoted husband In Henderson after an illness of some three week. Skilled physicians, huBband and two sisters, Mrs. W. C.Tyree. of Ral eigh, and Mrs. Ham Powell, of New Orleans, Mrs. U. I. Ray, of Oxford, and many Henderson friends were constantly by her bedside doing all that possibly could be done to stay the hand of disease, but proved of no avail and she gradually sank until her spirit returned to God who gave it amid the tears of loved ones. Oh, death how cruel to strike down the pride of a loving husband, fond pa rents, sisters and brothers, and the light and joy of a beautiful home.but her life is only transferred to a purer and happier clime, there to continue unceasingly thoughout the ages of Eternity hand in hand with an angel sister who entered the Pearly Gates more than a year ago. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Currln, parents of Mrs. Owen, and their youngest daughter, Miss Margaret, who for more than two mouths past have been on a visit to their son, Mr. E.G. Currln and family at Sidney, Austra lia, are on their way home having landed at San Francisco about the 21st. They were notified by wire of the extreme illness of their daughter, and it was hoped they might have reached her bedside at Henderson be fore the end came, but they failed to do so. They arrived Tuesday night at 8 o'clock via Durham. This Is in deed a very sad close to a most pleas ant trip of Mr. Currln and family, and we greatly sympathize with them that such sad news awaited them on their home coming. The funeral services were held in Henderson Wednesday at one o'clock and were very largely attended, after which the remains were conveyed to the Southern depot, followed by a large concourse of grief stricken 1 el atlves and friends, many of whom came over to Oxford to attend the obsequies. On the arrival of the train in Oxford at 3:30 p m the funeral party was met by a large concourse of sympathizing friends who Joined the funerall cortege and followed the remains to Elm wood Cemetery where they were tenderly consigned to the sacred tomb in the beautiful family plot, amid the tears and sobs of de voted loved ones and sympathetic friends. The floral tributes were pro fuse and beautiful showing the high esteem in which the deceased was held and completely covered the sa cred mound of the departed loved one. She leaves behind a truly devoted husband and bright little daughter, parents, 3 sisters mentioned above, and two brothers, Messrs. W. D. Cur rln, of Winston, and Eugene Currln in far off Australia akmg with many relatives to Borrovy over her death She was a faithful member of the Baptist church, and In the prime of young womanhood, but death loves the young as well as the old, and her eyes which once were lit up with love and affection are lustreless in death's deep sleep. Yes, a loved one has passed"beneath the shadows," and not until the bel fry of Eternity shall toll out the fu neral of time will loved ones behold her again. In this sad thought there Is an ocean of grief, whose dark and bitter waves engulf the heart In ever lasting gloom and before whose surg ing billows Sympathy herself stands mute and bows the head of voiceless anguish. And yet, despite all this, upon the lowering clouds there is seen a rainbow of comfort glistening on the "Inky flood of sorrow," for truly her gentle spirit must now roam sweet fields of Alden, and sip with angels the nectar of a blissful immortality. We would say to the grief-stricken husband, parents, sis ters, brothers and relatives, "Tls sad to part with loved ones; yet we should not murmur, for truly the Triune God doeth all things well." "Just In the spring of womanhood, Tender and loving and sweet and good. Ah! too good for the sinful earth, Only the angels knew her worth; So they called her unto them And decked her brow with a diadem. Better to smile when such a life Gives up the battle of early strife; Better to know her tasks are done, Trials ended and glory won. Tears are vain when a soul so bright Wings Its way to the gates of light." The Secret of Success. Forty million bottles of August Flower sold in the United States alone since its in troduction! And the demand for it is still growing. Isn't that a fine showing of success? Don't it prove that August Flower has had unfailing success in the cure of indigestion and dyspepsia the two greatest enemies of health and happiness? Does it not afford the best evidence that August Flower is a sure specific for all stomach and intestinal disorders? that it has proved itself the best cf all liver regulators? August Flower has a matchless record of over 35 years in curing the ailing millions of these distressing com plaints a succes that Is becoming wider in its scope everyday at home and abroad, as the fame of August Flower spreads Trial bottles 25c; regular size, 75c.

Mrs. Louis de Lacrolx delight fully entertained the Social Club yes terday afternoon. The expression occurs so many times in letters from sick women to Dr. Fierce; "I was completely discouraged." And there is always good reason for the discourage ment. Years of suffering. Doctor after doctor tried in vain. Medicines doing no lasting good. It is no wonder that the woman feels discouraged. Thousands of 3 these weak and sick women nave found health and courage regained J as the result of 1 the use of Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It establishes regu larity, dries un healthy d r ai n s, heals inflamma tion and ulcerea tion, and cures female weakness. It makes weak women strong and j sick women well. "In the year 1899 I was taken sick," writes Mrs. Kdna Crowder, of Ripley, Lauderdale Co.,Tenn. My limbs ached, had severe pains in back and lower part of bowels, with dif ficulty in urination. n nd smartiner and burning pain after. I tried many kinds of medicine and four of the best doctors in the country, until I gave up all hope of recovery. In January, 1901, I wrote to Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., and received from him a letter, telling me to try his medicines. I took eleven bottles, six of 'Favorite Prescription, five of 'Golden Medical Discovery,' one vial of 'Pel lets,' and used one box of Lotion Tablets and one of 'Healing Suppositories,' and am now abl to work at anything I want to. Thanks to you for your valuable medicine and kind advico." Weak and sick women are invited to consult Dr. R. V. Pierce, by letter, free.

The symptoms of Liver Complaint are well known to every one, such as consti- ation, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, sleep essness, headache, a tired feeling and many others of a similar nature. Thousands die annually by not heeding; the warnings of nature. Many acquire some chronic disease from which they never recover. Many of these could be spared for years of usefulness, by keeping in the home some reliable remedy. We believe that we can convince an 3 fair-minded person that there is no bet1 ter remedy for the Liver known, than Dr. Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup. The formula is known, consisting of: Buchu, Hydrangea, Mandrake, Yellow Dock, Dandelion, Sarsaparilla, Gentian, Senna and Iodide of Potassium. You know just what you are taking. How many other formulas of a liver medicine are published ? Ask your druggist abou this. It is already prepared and can be taken immediately. The strength is extracted in the most skillful manner, certainly superior to any powdered preparation known. (We also manufacture a Liver Medicine in pow dered form, with which any druggist can 6upply you, but this, like all other dry Liver Medicines requires preparation.) Dr. Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup is pleasant to take, does not lose ita strength, as Liver Medicine in dry form, and will keep in any climate. Your doctor, however skillful, could prescribe nothing better. There is no opportunity for a docto to make a mistake in writing a prescrip tion, or a drug clerk to make a mistake in compounding the same, (besides a doctor's bill ana the cost of the medi cine.) You can be absolutely sure of the proper proportion being in every dose. Dr. Thacher's Iiver and Blood Syrup, has been used with the greatest conff dence and success in thousands of homes for 52 years, and is prepared by a phar macist of 25 years' experience, in a labo ratory equipped with the most modern appliances for the most perfect safety. .
