The pressing need of rai is the all-absorbing snbfect, as the drought is becoming serious. T. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro nounced it a local disease, and pre scribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu tional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca tarrh Cure, mannifactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It actsi directly on the blood and mnceus surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cnre. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F. J.

This solemn event, this final hour that will strike for us all,came to him about 5 a. m. on Menday 6th inst. To him it was neither sudden :nor unexpected. Ad monished by recurrent paralytic strokes, which had sapped his vigo rous and active manhood, he was fully conscious that his term of life was near its close, and contemplated it with composure. Like the ready debtor, he was prepared to pay this final debt to nature without demur or perturbation. He was the only son of the late Dr. G. B. Pearson. Of his sisters, Mrs. Boyce, relict of the late Hon. W. W. Boyce, alone survives him. He was twice married. His wife and four children, three daugh ters and a son, are left and lament their great loss. He wss a loyal soldier o the Con federacy, and served his country faithfally and bravely at the front throughout the war. He was a fond and devoted husband and fa ther, pos sessed of a most happy sociai tempera ment, genial, jovial and generous, a true and loyal friend., His friends will always recall to memory with regretful pleasure his bright, honest yes, his -beaming countenan'ee, his. pleasantpersonality. He died in his sxty-'ninth year. Peace to your ashes, old friend. x. -MT. ZION BOCIETY.
