MRS. NAVY,
OF WALNUT
Mrs. Navy, of Walnut, Writes Inter?
estingly About Her Case, Which,
After Dragging for Years,
Was Finally Relieved
In One Week.
Walnut, N. C.?"I suffered mJre or
less during girlhood from female weak?
ness," writes Mrs. Mollle Navy, of this
place. "After I was married I was
almost bedridden, and had to give up.
We had three doctors. All the time 1
was getting worse. My trouble would
last from seven to twenty-eight days.
I gave Cardul a trial, and In one week
I could eat, sleep and Joke as well as
anybody. In eight weeks I was well.
I was an Invalid for five weary years.
Cardul relieved me when everything
else failed."
If you are weak and ailing, think
what It would mean to recover as
rapidly and surely as did Mrs. Navy.
In over fifty years this strength-build?
ing remedy has been used by thou?
sands of Indies, who found It of un?
told value in relieving womanly pains
and ailments.
? No medicine without merit could
remain In such constant use and show
such a continual Increase In sales as
Cardul has clone. It Is common-sense
to judgo ? medicine, as well as a man,
by success. Cardul Is successful .

signed because ho expected greater
political honors.

WILLIAM WON
SHOOTS HIMSELF
-:?
Coroner's Jury Unable to Say
Whether It Was Suicide
or Accident.
? William Sinton. until last January a
resident of this city, was found dead
In the back yard of his home, near
Gwathmey, Hanover county, yester?
day morning at 6 o'clock. A portion
of his head had Ibeen shot away, and
beside him lay a double-barreled shot?
gun, one chamber of which contained
an empty shell. Acting; Coroner G
W. Taylor held the Inquest yesterday .
noon, and the jury returned a verdict
that he came to his death at his own
hands, either accidentally or Inten?
tionally. The coroner's Jury; whila
divided between suicide and accident,
was convinced that Mr. Sinton fired
the shot that ended his life.
Members of the household, said yes^ .
t'crday that he had retired at his usual,
hour, and that they neither knew oJ'
his leaving the room, nor did they,'
hear the shot. Neighbors, however,
stated that they heard three reports'
soon after 11 o'clock. Two camo Iw'
quick succession, there was an In* ?
terval then another report. They paid
no attention to It, as both he and
others in the vicinity frequently Bred
at vagrant dogs during the night.
The body was found near tho garden
gate, back of the house, lying In a
pool of blood. It was evident that;
life had been extinct for several hours.
The fact that the neighbors are posi?
tive that three shots were fired lends
atrength to the accident theory, be-:
cause had he really Intended to com?
mit suicide the first shot doutblesq
would have been fired into his brain*
It was evident that only one charge)'
took effect.
Mr. Sinton had been In 111 health tot
some time, and 'had hcen forced ' to(
give up his work here on that rc-'.
count. Ho' had been In the country
for several months, and it seemed that
he was Improving. Although he was
at times inclined to he despondent,
no one over suspected that he con?
templated suicide.
Mr. Sinton we3 well known in this!
: city, hav ng for a number of years
been discount clerk In the Citizens'
Bank and after the consolidation was
general clerk In the National State
and City Bank, which position he held
until forced to go to the country for
his health.
He leaves two brothers?James Wi
Sinton. secretary of the Clearing
House A3soclotlon and vice-president
of the National State and City Bank,
and Arthur C. Sinton, president of the
Watt Plow Company: two sisters
Misses Jane and Eugenia Sinton, ofi
Hanover county.
The funeral will take place from

o'clock. The body will be brought to
