Aead accident happened at Albert m’s last Wednesday about 1 Kk p.m. Mrs Pilgrim had been teaning the upstairs. James Pilgrim ‘shout two years ago had been digging ‘well near the school house and had tout a pint of blasting powder left Which he put up stairs in a paper @ck. She gashered it with other rsand things and put all ina feltend brought them down stairs. tr dinner she took the lid off the ttove and emptied the contents into As soon as the powder got hot it fashed up; her dress caught fire on her wast and sleeve, she ran out of ‘theheuse. Her husband and John lussey were near, and Mr Hussey ‘tore her clothes off. She was badly barned on her breast and arm. She lived till about 10 o’clock ‘Thursday, r several hours of intense suffer- dag her spirit winged its way back tothe one who gave it. She was 42 ‘years of age.

Amid her great ag- ony, which is beyond pen to tell, she still manifested that motheriy love which was so characteristic of her, and asked the friends that they would render what assistance they could in caring for her little ones, She bade her companion an affec- tionate good-bye and requested the same of him. - She especially devoted to her home work and family, never too tired at the hour of midnight to minister to their wants. The children and father know what home is with a mother; never again will you see the dear form of the loving mother who cared for you so tenderly, and while itis hard to give her up we can only commend you to the Father above who comforts all our sorrow and takes away our grief. May the children live to emulate the exainple their mother left them. Not only does the family, but the neighborhood sufferan irreparable loss, and the church too, may know it has a rep- resentative in Heaven. Weare lone- some, but only waiting until the shadows area little longer grown. The funeral services were held at the M E church Friday at one o’clock p. m., conducted by Miss Elida Wither- spoon. She spent about half an hour in song service at the house, which was solemn and impressive; her sub- ject at the church was, Isaiah 38th / chapter and a part of the first verse |12 tb pure Northern beans “Set thy house in order for thou shalt die and not live.” The church was filled. A large number of the neighbors followed her body tothe Virginia grave yard through the rain. Miss Alice Crooks is visiting Mrs Wm Hughes, near Adrian.

Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kid- neys. When urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also Gonvincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root, the great kidney rem- edy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, biad- der and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that un- pleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If youneed a medi- eine you should have the best.
