We learn from Madison Herald of last week that among many good Ideas Judge Peebles tried to ernpha size and impress upon the minds of the Magistrates in 'the conduct of Rockingham court, was that a mag istrate should take in writing theev dence of material witnesses, both in misdemeanors as well as felonies, have them subscribe and swear to the same, enclose the eyidence with the other papers In the case and then when the Solicitor reached the case he would be greatly helped in the preparation of the same, besides such care on the trial magistrate's part will facilitate the business of Court, save the county expense, and Judge Peebles emphasized the further fact that no magistrate should send 5 or 6 witnesses tocourt to prove the same facts when the law only requires two witnesses to establish any one mate rial fact, and again, the J udge said when any defendant desires to go on the witness stand in a nr-'gl strafe's court and testify regarding the occur rence. It Is the duty of the Justice to caution the defendant, tell him his rights in the premises and how the law does not require any man to in criminate himself. AH magistrates should profit by the Judge's sugges tions. Death of Mr. Nicholas T. Green. ? Nicholas Thos. Green was bern Nov. 22nd. 1843, and died at his home near Stem In Granyllle county, March 14th, 1906. He professed religion un der the ministry of the Rev. J. B. Martin during the year 1884, but did not then nor at any future time con nect himself with the church, still he claimed to have a hope of eternal sal vation and oftlmes In his latter days expressed himself as prepared and willing to die. He was a quiet in offensive man, tender loving husband, kind affectionate father and obliging neighbor. Several years ago he was stricken with paralysis and during the remaining years of his life he had oftrepeated strokes till the end came. He never murmured nor complained but bore his afflictions patiently. He leaves a wife, four sons, two daugh ters, two grand children, several brothers and a large circle of friends to mourn their loss. May God's grace comfort and sustain them In their sad bereavement. The writer preached his funeral at his late home on the 16th Instant, after which we laid his mortal remains to rest in the home cemetery there to await the resurrection morn. The large gath ering present at his burial attested the love and esteem in which he was held. Thus one by one we are pass ing away and God grant that these oftrepeated occurances may awaken us all to greater diligence in Gods service so that when the end comes we may be ready to go. W. H.

We refer to that boon to weak, nervous, Buffering women known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Dr. John Fyfe one of the Editorial Staff of The Eclectic Medical Review says of Unicorn root (Helonias Didca) which is one of the chief ingredients of the "Fa vorite Prescription " : A remedy which invariably acts as a uter ine invigorator makes for normal ac tivity of the entire reproductive system. " Be continues "In Helonias we have a medica ment which more fully answers the above purposes than any other drug with which I am acquainted. In the treatment of diseases pe culiar to women It is seldom that a case Is seen which does not present some indication for this remedial agent." Dr. Fyfe further says: "The following are among the leading Indications for Helonias (Unicorn root). Pain or aching In the back, with leucorrhcea; atonic (weak) conditions of the reproductive organs of women, mental depression and ir ritability, associated with chronic diseases of the reproductive organs of women, constant sensation of heat In the region of the kid neys; monorrhagia (flooding), due to a weak ened condition of the reproductive system; amenorrhea (suppressed or absent monthly periods ). arising from or accompanying an abnormal condition of the digestive organs and anaemic (thin blood) habit; dragging sensations in the extreme lower part of the abdomen." .... If more or less of the above symptoms are present, no invalid woman can do better than take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, oAe of the leadingingredi ents of which is Unicorn root, or Helonias, and the medical properties of which it most faithfully represents. Of Golden Seal root, another prominent Ingredient of "Favorite Prescription," Prof. Finley Ellingwood, M. D., of Ben nett Medical College, Chicago, says: "It is an important remedy In disorders of the womb. In all catarrhal conditions and general enfeeblement. It Is useful." Prof. John M. Scudder, M. D., late of Cincinnati, says of Golden Seal root : "In relation to its general effects on the system, there it no medicine in use about which there is such general unanimity of opinion. It Is universally regarded as the tonic useful In all debilitated states." Prof. Bartholow, M. D., of Jefferson Medical College, says of Golden Seal : "Valuable in uterine hemorrhage, menor rhagia (flooding) and congestive dysmenor rhuia (painful menstruation)." Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription faith fully represents all the above named in gredients and cures the diseases for which they are recommended. A SEVERE COLD Brought on Summer Catarrh. Pe-ru-na Cured. MISS BLANCHE MYERS. Miss Blanche Myers, 3120 Penn street, Kansas City, Mo., has the following to say of Peruna: "During each of the past four seasons I have caught a severe cold, v Zvn sud denly chilled after an evening party, and catarrh for several weeks would be the result One bottle of Peruns cured me, and I shall not dread colds any more as 1 did. "BLANCHE M YERS. Summer eolds, though not as frequent as winter colds, very often prove more dangerous. At the first symptoms of catching cold Peruna should be taken. It is sure to stop the cold at once, and save needless suffering, and perhaps catarrh. Peruna as an internal, eystemic rem edy acts promptly on the inflamed mu cous membranes wherever the cold has settled. It strikes at the root of the matter, and thus cures promptly and permanently.
