The heavy rains the latter part
of last week caused the rivers to
rise rapidly and much of the farm
ing lands in the bottom was inun
dated. The backwaters came out
*
j to the stock law gate, within a
j short distance of the depot, and it
! was feared for awhile that the
j south side of town would be over
j flowed. The water began falling,
however, about noon Monday and
. the river is now down almost with
: in its banks.
Right at this time the newspa
pers of the state are laboring un
der serious disadvantages. Every
body wants to know the result of
the election, and it seems almost
impossible to get returns. The
i storms and heavy rains of last
Thursday and Friday seems to
have demoralized all transporta
i tion facilities. Telephone and tel-j
■ egraph lines were down in many
i places and the trains all running
II behind time. The delay would not
be so noticeable at any other time,
but the people are so much inter
ested in getting returns from the I
election that it is rather exasper-'
ating.

took place somewhere on the low

tance after being stabbed and fell
in front of the Hank of Newport.

Dr. Miles’ Nervine is medicine for your
nerves.
It cures diseases of the Internal or
gans, by giving tone to the nerves which
make these organs work.
It is a novel theory—not of anatomy,
but of treatment; first discovered by
Dr. Miles, and since made use of by
many wide-awake physicians, who ap
preciate its .value in treating the sick.
If you are sick, we offer you a way to
be made weli—Dr. Miles’ Nervine.
This medicine is a scientific cure for
nerve disorders, such as Neuralgia.
Headache, I.oss of Memory, Sleepless
ness, Spasms, Backache, St. Vitus*
Dance, Epilepsy or Fits, Nervous Pros
tration. etc.
By toning up the nerves, Dr. Miles*
Restorative Nervine will also cure those
diseases of the internal organs due to
a disordered nervous system.
Some of these arc: Indigestion, Bil
ious Headache, Kidney Trouble, Chronic
Constipation, Dropsy, Catarrh, Rheuma
tism. etc.
“My brother had nervous prostration,
and was not expected to live. I pre
vailed upon him to try Dr. Miles’
Restorative Nervine, and now he haa
fully recovered. You remember I wrote
you how it saved my life a few years
ago, when I had nervous trouble. I
preach its merits to everyone.”—REV.
