This is less than fifty cents a month. Who will not be willing to pay this small amount to keep up a nine months' school, thereby edu cating his child In ^hree years, In stead of ten by sending him to school a few months of the five months' term?

Th solmn Sabbath day has dawned And I am on the boundless sea. How sweet and precious Is the thought That God is watching over me. Within His mlgltiy^innd He holds The restless waves that round me roll; But none the less His loving arm Is lifted to protect my soul. +4-h From out the arching skies of blue He sends His glory In the sun; It shines In love upon my wqy No matter where my footsteps run. +** Upon the wings of rushing winds He walks along the pathless deep; And when the night comes drifting down He gives to His beloved sleep. 111 Within the calm of this sweet day My willing soul would linger long. Nor rest until the listening world Had caught her glad, triumphant song. SALE OF LOTS IN THOMASVILLE.

Death has again spread a mantle of, sorrow over our comunlty In taking from us one so well known and loved She had hardly reached her 20th birthday. She was a Baptist and a- member of Salem church. She has been a consistent member since she Joined four years ago. She was mar- reid to Mr. George Ones! a little over two years and has been a faith ful apd loving wife up to her sad death. She was upright and true. She leaves a kind husband, one auntand one uncle and hosts of friends to mourn her loss. Last, but not the least of importance, she leaves a sweet little babe, which will never, know a mother’s face, nor a mother's loving kiss, nor a mother’s good advice. The Lord grant to it some kind friend who will supply a mother’s love. The following poem expresses the dying mother’s love: Lay the gem upon my bosom, Let me feel the sweet warm breath For a strange chill o’er me passes And I know that It Is death. I would gaze upon the treasure Scarcelygiven ere I go; Feel his rosy dimple lingers Wander o’er my cheek of snow. I am passing through the waters, But a blessed a shore appears; Kneel beside mo husband dearest. Let me kiss away thy tears. Wrestle with the grief my husband. Strive from midnight until day, It may leave an angel’s blessing When It vanlsheth away. Lay trie gem upon my bosom 'TIs not long he can be there; See! how to my heart he nestles, ’Tis the pearl I love to wear. If In after years beside thee Sits another In my chair Though her voice be sweeter music, Her face than mine more fair. If a cherub call thee “father,” Far more beautiful than this Love thy first born, O, my husband Turn not from the motherless. Tell him sometimes of his mother You can call him by my name Shield him from the winds of sorrow U he errs, O gently blame. Lead him sometimes I am sleeping I will answer if he calls And my breath shall stir his ringlets When my voice in blessing falls. And wonder whence it came In his heart when years pass over him He will find his mother's name. It Is said that every mortal Walks between two angels Core Onercoords the lllbut blots it Before the midnight drear. Man repentetb, If untancelled. Then he seals It for the skies And hlsright angel wepeth Bowing low with veiled eyes. I will be his right hand angel. Sealing up the good for beaven, Sntrlvtng that the midnight watches Find no misdeed unforglven. You will not forget me husband, . When I'm sleeping ’neath the sod 9, love the Jewel given us As I love thee next to God! Farewoll dear- sister in God, we trustour loss Is your eternal gain and the great loving spirit o God lead both husband and babe through this world so they may meet wife and mother where sorrow never comes and parting la known no more.
