SCIATIC TORTURE
A Locomotive Engineer Tells How
He Was Cured by Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills.
Pain that seems almost unbearable
is a characteristic of sciatic rheuma
tism. In some casts the pain is
knife-Iilce, sharp or shooting; in oth
ers it is dull and aching. Sciatica
is stubborn in resisting treatment and
the patient frequently suffers for
years. This was the case with Mr.
Herbert E. Spaulding, a locomotive
engineer on the Cincinnati, New Or
leans & Texas Pacific Railway, whose
Lome is at Longview, Texas.
“While running an engine some
years ago,” he says, “I fell off and
hurt my knee and spine and I have
always considered this to be the cause
of my illness. The sciatica took hold
of me from my heel to the back of
my head. The pain was the worst
I ever suffered in my life and my leg
and back were twisted out of shape.
1 was under a physician's care for
several months and fur six months
could not get out of bed. I also went
to Hot Springs but came back in a
worse condition than when I went.
“It was when I was down in bed
that 1 heard of the case of a Mr.
Allison, a much older man than my
self. who had been cured of sciatica
by Drt Williams’ Pink Pills. I began
taking the pills and soon was able to
get out of bed. When I had taken
six boxes I was able to work about
the house and yard. I kept right
on with the pills until I was cured
and I have never had any return of
the trouble. 1 have been running an
engine ever since.”
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent postpaid, on re
ceipt of price, 50 cents per box. six
boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y.

THE OLDEST PREACHER
GEORGE WASHINGTON BRINS
FIELD, OF IZARD COUNTY,
ARKANSAS, DIES AT AGE
OF 103.
FATHER OF FOURTEEN CHILDREN,
Fifty Grandch.ldren, Eighty-Seven
Great Grandchildren and Twelve
Great-great Grandchildren.
Some years ago the Christian Ad
vocate of New York made mention of
a Mrs. Barirngton, of England, as be
ing the oldest Methodist. Dr. A. C.
Millar, editor of the Western Christian
Advocate refutes this statement, and
claims that Arkansas was the home
for many years of the oldest Metho
dist on earth in the person of Rev.
George Washington Bvinsfleld, who
died at his home near Huron, Izard
county, Arkansas, on February 2G.
This venerable patriarch was born
May 1G, 1799, and was therefore 107
year^, nine months and eleven days
old at the time of his death.
His early boyhood was spent in Gif
ford county, North Carolina, where he
was born. From there he moved to
GEO. W. BRINSFIELD.
Georgia and later to Alabama, where
he lived some years before coming to
the modest little farm in Izard coun
ty, Arkansas, where so many long,
useful years were spent.
In 1818 he was married to Miss
Charity Skipper, and to them were
born six children. His wife having
died, he married a second time and
from this union eight children were
born.
Mr. Brinsfield joined the Methodist
church when he was only twenty-one
years of age, and was soon after
licensel to preach, and had been active
in the work of his church until the
last two or three years when his
great age forced him to relinquish
his ardous duties.
Of the descendents now living, of
this good man, there are 50 grand
children, 87 great-grandchildren and
1- great-great grand children.
Although a man in the humble walks
of life, the people who knew him best
delighted to honor him, and now that
his long pilgrimage is ended he is
mourned by countless numbers to
whom his gentle, peaceful presence
was as a benediction.
Grandfather Separates Them.
Belle Isaacs and Steve Driver
Payne of Noble Lake were married
recently in Pine Bluff following an
elopement. Immediately after the
ceremony the bride's grandfather, a
Mr. Isaacs o"f Noble Lake, who bad
been pursuing the couple from the
time they left their home, took the
young bride away from her husband,
declaring that she was a mere child
and "o'er young to marry yet.” Miss
Isaacs lias the appearance of being
about 13 years old and is still attired
in short dresses. Young Payne,
whose home is said to lie in Memphis,
but who is employed by Isaacs at
Noble Lake, would not remain away
from the girl, although her grand
father demanded that he do so. He
said he would “stand by her, no mat
ter what comes.” He returned to
Noble Lake on the same train as the
grandfather and his bride.
Skull Crushed In.
W. 5Y. Orr, a young man living at
Mt. Mo.-ia, 12 miles southeast of Predt
colt, was found dead upon the floor
of the barn, with his skull crushed in.
The manner in which he met his death
is still a mystery, though several
theories have been advanced. One is
that he was murdered, but this idea
lias been almost abandoned by the
officers. Another theory is that be
fell froii, a loft In the barn, and still
another, which the officers are inclined
to believe is that lie was kicked by
a mule.
Murdered at Eagle Mills.
.lames Freeman, a well-respected
negro, who was employed by the Eagle
Lumber Company, ;was murdered re
cently. His head had been crushed
in with an axe. As yet no clew to the
perpetrator has been secured.
Old Settler Dead.
Judge John. T. Jones, one of the
oldest settlers of Phillips county, died
recently at the age of 94 years. He
had been a resident of Phillips county
more than half a century.
Stood the Te*t.
Allcock’s Plasters have successfully
stood the test of sixty years' use by
the public; their virtues have never
been equaled by the unscrupulous im- .
itators who have sought to trade upon
their reputation by making plasters
with holes in them, and claiming them '
to be “just as good as Allcock’s.”
Allcock's plasters stand to-day in
dorsed by not only the highest medical
authorities, but by millions of grateful
patients who have proved their effi
cacy as a household remedy.
Bold Raid by Foxes.
A curious vulpine raid was witness
ed one recent Sunday on the Manor
farm, Corston, near Malmesbury. A
number of unsuspecting fowls were
feeding quietly in one of the fields
when a band of five foxes appeared.
Heading for the fowls, they each pick
Pd out one of the unfortunate birds
and made off, carrying their prey
with them.—London Daily Mail.
Catarrh and Headache.
Mrs. Z. E. Goforth, 2119 Holly street, 1
Kansas City, writes: “After using a
sample bottle and two 23c bottles of
Hunt’s Lightning Oil, 1 am almost well
of Catarrh. It stops my headaches. It !
is the best medicine 1 ever saw and 1
just can't keep house without it." She 1
is right.

WOMEN IN HOSPITALS
Experiences of Mrs. Rockwood and Miss Tierney
MISS MARGARET TIERNEY
A large proportion of the operations
performed in our hospitals are upon
women and girls for some organic
trouble.
Why should this be the case ?
Because they have neglected them
selves, as every one of these patients
in the hospital beds had plenty of
warning in those dragging sensations,
pains at left or right of abdomen,
backaches, nervous exhaustion, in
flammation, ulceration, displace
ments, and other organic weaknesses.
All of these symptoms are indica
tions of an unhealthy condition of the
female system and if not heeded the
penalty iias to be paid by a dangerous
operation. When these symptoms
manifest themselves, do not drag
along until you are obliged to go to
the hospital and submit to an opera
tion—but remember that Lydia E.
I’inkham’s Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs, hussaved 1
hundreds of women from surgical
operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compounds has cured more cases of
feminine ills than any other one
remedy. Such letters as thefollowing |
MRS.CHAS. A.ROCKWOOD
are constantly being' received by
Mrs. Pinkham to prove our claims.
Mrs. C. A. Rock wood, teacher of
Parliamentary Law, of 58 Free St.,
Fredonia, N. Y., writes:
“For years I suffered with female trouble.
It was decided that an operation was neces
sary, and although I submitted to a serious
operation my sufferings continued, until
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
was recommended and it proved a marvelous
remedy, so quickly did it restart' my health.
1 cannot thank you sufficiently lor the good
it has done me.”
Miss Margaret Tierney, of No. 328
W. 25th Street, New York, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
“When only eighteen years of age our
physician decided that an operation was
necessary to permit of ray womanly organs
performing their natural functions. My
mother objected and being urged by a
relative to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Veget
able Compound did so. 1 soon improved in
health, the proper conditions were establish
ed and I am well and strong, thanks to
Lydia E. Pinkham’s \ egetable Compound.”
No other remedy lias such un
qualified endorsement, as Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. No
other remedy in tlie world has such
a record of cures of female ills.
Mrs. Pinkham’s Standing Invitation to Women
Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. PinUham, at Lynn, Mass From the
symptoms given, the trouble may be located and t in: quickest and surest way
of recovery advised. Out of her vast volume of experience in treating female
ills Mrs. Pinkham probably has the very knowledge that may help youi
case, llor advice is free and always helpful.

What its millions of users think of it, is well expressed in these
words of Mrs. Rosa Lee Cole, of Smithton, Mo., who writes: ‘ I suf
fered from female troubles for 7 years. I had pain, low down in my
stomach, my feet hurt so I could not stand, and 1 was so weak and
nervous 1 could hardly do anything. I was just sick all the time. At
last 1 wrote you for advice and you recommended Wine of Cardui,
which I took according to your directions. 1 have now taken
5 bottles of Wine of Cardui, and am feeling better than in the past 7
> ears. My feet and stomach do not hurt, my female troubles have
gone, I am getting stouter and stronger, can do all my housework, work
