Of Bertha Evans, who depart

Her remains were laid to rest in
Concofd cemetery, Rev, V. V.
Braddy and Bro. Kelley conduc
ted the funeral services. She
was 12 years, 11 months and
15 days old when the Lord saw
lit to call her from this world
of sin to a home above, where
there is no sickness pain nor
death there.
She leaves a father, mother
6 brothers and a grandmother
and a lot of other relatives and
friends to mourn her loss, but
our loss is her eternal gain. She
was a loving girl. She will be
missed by all who knew her.
She all ways had a kind word
and a loving smile for every
body she met. She suffered un
told agony during her sickness
but bore her sickness with great
patience. Shi* died with that
iireal!id deasease, Pneumonia
fever. She realized that she
was going to die and called her
papa lo her bed side drew him
down and hugged his neck and
kissed him and said, papa 1 am
going home to rest, 1 know that
Heaven is more brighter lo lath
r and mother since Bertha has
gone there to live. The home
sso lonely without her. Ber
tha is gone but not forgotten.
Thou art gone, we miss the
darling and no one can never
tell how it filled our hearts with
■;adness when we spoke our last
farewell.

In Loving Memory.
Of Mamie Kate Echols, who
on the 29th, of December 1916
God saw fit to take from earth
to Heaven. She was the sweet
'ittle daughter of Carter and
Willie Echols. Just 9 months
old when God said come up
higher little Kate I have a brigh
er place than earth for you
She was too sweet for us to
keep here. We know not why
God took her from us so soon,
but God knew best. I would say
to her father and mother weep
not for little Kate is resting in
the arms of Jesus where no sick
ness ever comes. She was here
just a short while but will al
ways remember her sweet
smiles.
She leaves a father, mother,
one brother and a host of other
relatives to mourn our loss.
We 'oved her, yes, we loved
her but angels loved her more
and they have come and taken
her to yonder shining shore.
Kate is gone a precious darl
ing never more will we set' her
face til we meet her over the
river in that happy dwelling
place.

Oi Miss Martha Benefield,
w i o (lep.Wed this hie Se.) -m-j
her the 15th, 1916. She was
laid to rest in Dunkins Creek
cemetery Saturday Sept. 16th..
She leaves a fatehr, mother, 4
brothers and three sisters to i
mourn her loss, but their loss is,
her eternal gain. She was a
kind and loving child an dsister
and was loved by ail who knew
her. It was God’s will to take
her from this world of sorrow,
and we pray God that we may
live a life in this world so as to
meet dear Martha in Heaven
where all is peace and happi
ness and no farewell tears are
shed. It is so sad to know we
will never see her sweet face on
earth no more nor hear her ten
der sweet voice no more in this
world but it is sweet to know we
all have the assurance that if
we live as we should we will
meet Martha in heaven never
to take the parting hand. We
have the assurance that her soul
has gone home to God in peace
while the body sleeps a peace
ful sleep awaiting the resurrec
tion morn. Words can not tell
the sadness that filled our
he arts when from dear Martha
we had to part, lonely the hours
since dear Martha is gone, but
oh, a brighter home than ours
is now her own. Her sufferings
are all over now and we feel
sure that she is enjoying the
sweetness of heaven and sing
ing the sweet songs of Zion. She
has paid the debt we all must
pay sooner or later. The clear
Lord has carried her to that
beautiful home not made with
lands eternal in the heavens.
We loved her, yes, we loved
her, but the angels loved her
more.
May God’s richest blessings
pour out from heaven above up
on all to live a better life in the
future than we have in the past
so when we are called away we
can meet dear Martha that has
gone on before.
She was loved by all who
knew her and always had a
smile for all whom she met.
A precious one from us is
gone, a voice we loved is still,
a place is vacant in the home
that never can be tilled, peace
ful in the grave so low thou art
.vailing ever waiting for the
dear ones here below, We’ll
join thee in t’ne heavenly land
no more to take the parting
hand.
Written by her loving friend,
Lela Pendley.
I leave a piece to leave be
hind for my dear husband while
I have my right mind. I hope
and pray to God will guide us
both to heaven, that is my ear
:u st prayers to meet our darling
in heaven. I can say that Ed
has been a true, kind husband
to me during all of my sickness
and hope he will have good luck
and live a happy life and at the
judgment bar <>; God we will
meet to part no more when
there will be n<> more sorrow
nor no more pains, but all will
be joy and peace.
I have lived in hopes of being
well but 1 will hope no more, on

Well, as 1 don’t know of much
visiting will tell you all a little
joke. I know of a man that was
so stingy he married an arm
less woman to keep from buy
ing the ring, he used to stop the
clock at night to keep from
wearing out the works, he
would look over his glasses to
keep from wearing them out,
would take long steps when he
walked to s'ave his shoes, when
hes ent his hired man into the
orchard to gather cherries he
would keep him whistling so he
couldn’t eat any of the fruit, he
taken his food in capsules to
save his teeth, he lost his pock
et book with twenty-five dollars
in it a fellow found it and re
turned it to him a week later,
he then charged the fellow in
terest on the money while he
had it.
School at this place will close
Friday.
If this goes to the waste oak
et someone let me know and I 11
come again.
Think there will be a little
visiting to the field if no where
else to write about next week.
With best wishes to all the
readers, my name is,

This Splendid Medicine
Constipation, Stomach and
Liver Trouble Quickiy
Overcome
Constipation is such a serious
affection that, it is supposed to
be more prolific of human mis
ery than any other one cause.
The effects of constipation are well
known. It leads to the poisoning of
the entire system, and the train of evils
that follow constipation is almost limit
less. Stomach and liver disorders, in
digestion, dyspepsia, foul breath and
furred tongue, gas and belching, a
bloated feeling in the stomach and
boweis, loss of appetite, inability to
sleep, headache,irritability of temper —
these are some of the common results of
constipation,tho’ there are many others.
Foley’s Orino Laxative for stomach,
liver and bowels is made of the active
principle of certain simple laxative
herbs. : It acts very surely, but so
gently that it is tiie ideal medicine for
babies and children, as well as grown
persons and elderly people. It does
not contain calomel, which many people
cannot stand, nor does it contain any
harmful drugs.
