It was sad to give her uo, but just to think she has gone to rest beyond the skies. She was loved by all who knew her, she lived a Christian life, was ready to help when ever she was culled. Loved ones just remember the words she spoke, *' I am ready to die.” It is sad to give her up but remember the good deeds she has done in the past. Mrs. Meredith joined the church when she was eighteen, and has lived up to the time of her death, a good, kind, helpful and useful woman. She lived to be eighty-four years, eight months and eight days old. Oh how sad it is to part with her. but live a Christian life and meet her some day beyond the skies. She leaves three daughters, several grand-children and other relatives and friends to mourn her loss. ’Tis sweet, to meet, but sad to part.

The other college hoys were hazing the new freshman, who was the son of a clergyman. “You will be required,” they said as they stood him on a table, “to preach a sermon.” “I’ll do It, gentlemen,” he answered, “on condition that you do not interrupt me until I have finished.” “We promise. “Will you kindly furnish me a text?” “You will preach a sermon,” thc3' said after consulting together a mo ment, “on Cerberus.” “On Cerberus, gentlemen?

Then they sneaked out one by one, and the hazing came to an end.—Chi cago Tribune. Duluth, Minn. At a recent meeting of the elty coun cil a resolution was passed authorizing the water board to make a contract with the Great Northern Tower com pany to furnish electricity for operat ing the pumping station. Under the proposed contract the maximum price for pumping 1,000,000 gallons is $0.50. Last year it cost the city SB.OO per 1,000,000 gallons, without counting the cost of depreciation in the plant.— Electrical World. A Ray of Light From FngGnd. Municipal Indebtedness resulting from taking over public service utili ties has become so burdensome In Eng land that it is seriously suggested to avoid payment of interest by redeem ing the bonds with noninterest bear ing municipal notes. While this plan has not yet been approved by English financiers and statesmen, it may af ford a ray of hope to some of our cities that are staggering under similar burdens. J. T.

Better Than Brains. A poor, dyspeptic little minister was walking out one Monday morning when he chanced to meet two brother clergymen, hale, hearty looking fel lows. After the customary greetings they asked hirn how things looked. He pulled a long face and said everything was had, It was it dying world, and the outlook was wretched. “Now, brother,” said his questioner, “you are wrong yourself. Something is the mat ter with your brain. You want to get that right, like ours,” slapping his comrade on the shoulder, “then the world will look brighter to you.” The dyspeptic looked at both his “brothers” a minute and then said, “I’d rather have the stomach of one of ye than the brains of both of ye.”—Boston Herald.

Ido not want chattel mortgages because it costs my customers to have the same recorded and the price of recording is al ways added to the price of the goods. Open account is all 1 ask and I want you to feel free J o call on me for your Spring Goods. My reason for making ar rangements to accomodate you for this year and not leaving Jackson are these: My chil dren are now in our Public School here and while their Educational advancement has always been perfectly satisfac tory to me, yet I find that I cannot now enter them in an other college without to a great extent changing the course of training they are now receiving. Again I have made many friends in Jackson and Butts and surrounding Coun ties whom I'appreciate highly and whom I am now read} to serve.
