Hay Register Until October 15.
There is a provision in the ordi?
nance relating to the registration
of voters which is very important
to those who, through careless neg?
lect of the published notice, fail to
register at the appoint.d time, says
the Charlottesville Progress. It is
the one which empowers the regis?
trars to act "a. such other places
within the district or ward as may
be convenient and necessary to
complete the registration of the
voter,.." This clearly means that
anv two of the registrars, acting as
a majority of the board, can regis?
ter applicants at any place within
their ward or district between now
an4 October 15. Notice of such
registration is not required* This
clause of the ordinance will protect
many who fail to attend the regu?
lar meetings of the board and who
will otherwise be debarred from
registering for the next twelve
months.

On the morning of Sept.25 1902, j
shortly before 10 o'clock, the aged
veteran, John ShulU passed quiet?
ly and peacefully to rest like he
was going to sleep. His suffering
for six long weary weeks had been
great, having had pneumonia and
other complications, but through
it all his simple patience and child?
like trust in Jesus his Savior, was
so complete that he was made able
to bear these heavy burdens, and
come off conqueror at the last, for
just a short time before his death
he prayed God to take him to Him?
self and thereby release him from
his suffering, So, in a few minutes,
ho exclaimed?"God is going to
answer. He is coming, He is com
ing"~-theu a few moments more
and he was not, for God took him.
This ended a life of usefulness,
which had reached far beyond the
limit of its allotted time, for his
age was 81 years, 9 months and 20
days. "He was a mechanic by trade,
?born in Augusta county, afterwards
lived in Pooahontas, Alleghany,
Bath and Highland counties at dif?
ferent times, was married in J839
to Deborah H. BrinkWy of Alle?
ghany county who survives him,
served his country throughout the
civil war, belonging to a Bath
squadron of confederate cavalry,
and lastly and best of all served
his God, was converted in a revival
conducted at Green Hill church by
Hammond and Clark, united with
the Presbyterian church and con?
tinued a life of faith, His surviv?
ing children are T, H. Shuitz, of
Staunton, Va. V. S. Shuitz and Mrs.
A. W. Bird of this place. Appro?
priate funeral services were conduct?
ed at Green Hill church by Rev. VV,
VV. Carson where his interment
took place,
"Seryant of God, well done!
Re. t from thy loved employ;
The battle fought, the viet'ry won
Enter thy master's joy."

Andrew Fleming Bradshaw, born
March 31,1876, died Sept. 10.1902,
aged 26 years, 5 months and 16
days.
The subject of this sketch died
at Covington, Va. Sept. 16th, 1902,
of typhoid fever, where he had been
employed at the pulp mill for about
three years. As soon as news of
his sickness reached home, his
brother started for his bedside, but
in spite of all that willing hands
could do the hand of death could
not be stayed, and on Tuesday
evening he passed quietly away.
Deceased was the youngest son
of Franklin and Estaline V. Brad?
shaw and was converted and joined
the M. E. Church South under the
ministry of Rev. M. P. Weikle
about four years ago, since which
time he had lived an active chiis
tian life, dying in the tryumph of
a living faith. His body was laid
to rest Thursday evening under the
boughs of a large spreading oak on
the old home place, while the rust?
ling of the golden leaves over head
seemed to say?Farewell father,
mother, sister, brother, meet me on
the other shore.
The funeral service was conduct?
ed by Rev, J. F. Valliant assisted
by Rev. If. P. Weikle, from the
text "It is appointed unto man once
to die but after that the judgment.'
He leaves to mourn his loss, an aged
father and mother, two brothers
and four sisters, namely;
Robert, of Horton, W. Va. J.
Frank, Mrs. John H. Blagg, Misses
Ada E. and Mary C. Bradshaw all
:>f this county, and Mrs. Lehman

Sick .tock or poultry should not
eat cheap stock food any more than
sick persons should expect to bo
c.ired by food. When your stock
and poultry are siok give them med?
icine. Don't gtulf them with worth?
less stock foods. Unload the bowels
and stir up the torpid liver and the
animal will be cured, if it bo possi?
ble to euro it. Black-Draught Stock
and Poultry Medicine unloads the
bowels and stirs up the torpid liver.
It cures every malady of stock if
taken in time. Secure a 25-cent can
of Black-Draught Stock and Poultry
Medicine and it will pay for itself ten
times over. Horses work better. Cows
give more milk. Hogs gain flesh.
And liens lay more eggs. It solves the
? roblen) of making as much blood,

sumed. Buy a can from your dealer.

IN January of tin's year we placed two of our LESTER
PIANOS in the Lewisbnrg Female Institute. Or. J;-,',v
22nd 1902, we received an order for fis more of the same
institution.
In a letter written February 20th, 1902, Dr. Telford the
Principal stated that he liked the Lester Pianos we fur?
nished better than any he had in the school. The last
order proves that they continue to hold good. There may
be other good Pianos, but they cost more money than we
ask for The Lester.
