“ About four years ago my wife was troubled
with salt rheum. Although we tried nearly
everything it got worse instead of better and
spread over both of her hands so that she could
hardlv use them. Finally sho commenced to
use Hood’s Sarsaparilla and when she had taken
two bottles her hands were entirely healed and
she has not since been troubled. In December,
1892, my neck was covered with boils of a
Scrofulous Nature.
There were sixteen of them at once and as soon
as they healed others would break out. My
neck finally became covered with ridges and

the guest of I)r. Nixon at his lovely
home on the 25th near Nannie. The
occasion being a picnic, and to say
we were royally entertained, would
not tell the tale. Their house and
hearts were open to their friends.
Last Sunday, a week ago was set
aside for the Sunday school and
children’s day at the Methodist
church, hut the inclemency of the
weather was not favorable for this
occasion so this day o r celebration
was postponed to Wednesday even
ing following. At that time a full
attendance of the members of the
Sunday school were out in response
to their beloved superintendent,
pastor and their own wishes. As
th(> occasion was devoted mostly
to the younger people, the older
folks did not come in on the pro
gram in so conspicuous a manner.
Under the care of Mesdames F.
Hudson, B. L. Gunn, G. M. Boyd
and Miss Watts, the children
were accurately drilled in all the
parts assigned them. A full au
dience were out who saw the at
tractive as well as artistic decora
tion of the church in ferns and
other classes of flowers by the deft
hands of the ladies. Space will not
permit us giving as we would like
a detailed account of the exercises.
We allude to the responsive read
ing by the superintendent and
school,so novel and instructive,and
the many sweet songs by the chil
dren, especially that of a song “Why
stand Ye Idle” in response to read
ng by the superintendent. Tho
recitations were delivered in a
I cleai tone by the sweetest modest
little maidens, Bertie Owens and
May Combs. The flower’s mission
came out in full bloom with ten
girls. There wasn’t a boy in it, if
so, the floral exhibit would have
been a blank. Each girl carried
in the hand a small bouquet of an
individual flower, after represent
ing its mission and character, this
bouquet was hung on a beautiful
cross that stood ready near by on
the stage for its recipients. As each
recitation occurred the flowers were
put in their places until the cross
was covered entirely, ten girls
standing, each bearing flowers.
