[From the Atehirmon, Kan , Daily Globe.] This is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in demand in every neighborhood. One of the most terrible things in the world is to be awakened in the middle 1 of the night by a whoop from one of the children. The croup remedy is almost as sure to be lost, in case of croup, as a revolver is sure to be lost in case of burglars. There used to be an old fash ioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tolu, but some modern motheas say that Chamberlin’s Cough Remedy is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to “through up the phlegm” quicker, and gives relif in a shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as the croupy cough ap pears, and it will prevent the attack. I It never fails and is pleasant and safe |to take. For sale by J. H. Blackburn. THE BARNESVILLRNEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1902. In Memory of Mrs. Lucy Smith. We feel like offering a small tribute in behalf of our precious mother, who passed away just a few weeks ago. She was the joy and pride of our hearts and the sunshine of our home. Oh ! she was well worthy, indeed! of that golden crown which now encircles her radiant brow, for no stain was ever discovered on her soul escut cheon, which was whiter than any lily that ever kept time to the water’s murmer and purer than any pearl that ever decked the throat of royalty. She aspired to things of a higher and holier na ture ; for a life that no thought of mammon enters and no earth so 1 stains; a life that is rewarded in Heaven with rest and happiness; for she was ever ready and will ing to sacrillce every thought of self, every worldly motive and aim for the sake of her loved ones and did it in the name of the blessed Savior who has said; “In as much as ye did it unto one of the least of these, ye did it unto me.,’ Oh 1 what a victory! It is sorrow for ourselves and yet what unspeakable comfort with the benediction of All Mighty God; the assurance of his word and the comfort of his spirit, our souls penetrated with his truth and we are strong in the faith, with confidence and trust in God. Shall we sorrow as those that have no hope? Oh! she was so pleasant, meek and patient in her sufferings. Although she couldn’t speak plain enough to be understood during her last hours, yet we feel assured that dear mama is just across the river on the other shore, watching and waiting to welcome her loved ones home, for as her friends and rela tives stood by her bedside telling her of the beautiful home where she was going, we could see a heav enly smile come over her face and with her face brightened up with joy she breathed her last. Ah well, some sweet hope for us all lies deeply buried from hu man eyes, and in the hereafter angels may roll the Stone from the Sepulchre. Daughters.

In an article of reminiscences Mai y Staurt Boyd says that the late Bret Harte never obtruded his personality. He also had a dread of people who regarded him for his workbnly, not for himself. “Why didn’t you tell me it was Bret Harte who sat, next to me at dinner last night?” wailed one of society’s smartest young matrons, in a note to her hostess, the morn ing after a large dinner party. “I have always longed to meet him, and I would have been so different had J only known who my neighbor was.” “Now, why can’t a woman real ize that this sort of thing is in sulting?” queried the author, to whom the hostess had forwarded her friend’s letter. “If Mrs. talked with me, and found me uninteresting as a man, how could she expect to find me interesting because I was an author?” Kodoi dyspepsia oure Oiqests what vou eat- RHeiMlismQ The liniment bottle and flannel strip are f r'L familiar objects in nearly every household. •* They are the weapons that have been used for generations to fight old Rheumatism, and are \ about as effective in the battle with this giant . J disease as the blunderbuss of our forefathers > * would be in modern warfare. ' Trp'u Rheumatism is caused by an acid, sour condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritating matter that settles in the joints, muscles and nerves, and liniments and oils nor nothing else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles. They were deposited there by the blood andean be reached only through the blood. Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the aches and pains, but these are only symptoms which are liable to return with every change of the weather ; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system are infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cured until the blood has been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly and promptly as S. S. S. It neutralizes the acids and sends a stream — —of rich, strong blood to the affected parts, which ffN dissolves and washes out all foreign materials, and the sufferer obtains happy relief from the torturing pains. KOI kj) S. S. S. contains no potash or other mineral, but " ’ is a perfect vegetable blood purifier i and most exhilarating tonic. Our physicians will advise, without charge, all who write about their case, and we will send free our special book on Rheumatism and its treatment. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atlanta, 6a. An honest Charwoman. A novel decision was rendered at the Treasury Department grow ing out of the act of an honest charwoman who found a package of money in the cash-room while cleaning up the office after the clerks had gone for the day. It was clearly an oversight on the part of somebody connected with this branch of the service, but the poorwoman, who only received S2O a month, did her duty and re turned the package of money, which she could easily have taken and nobody would have been any wiser. This package was made up of SIOO notes, and the contents would have made the charwoman comfortable for the remainder of her life. But she knew the money did not belong to her. and that its loss would entail a great deal of trouble, and she promptly turn ed it over to the captain of the watch, who saw that it reached the United States Treasury. Had this money been taken away from the department the loss would have fallen upon Treasurer Mor gan, who is responsible for every cent entrusted to his care. When this circumstance was re ported to Assistant Secretary Vanderlip he resolved, Mikado like, to make the punishment fit the crime, and this caused a nov el decision to be made. This was to the effect that the clerk who had been guilty of dereliction of duty should write a letter of thanks to the charwoman and agree to turn over to her one month’s salary as a reward for her trustworthiness and honesty.! It was also decided to hold the chief of the division responsible with the clerk, and he is to give up one-third of a month’s salary j to the charwoman, who has made such an enviable reputation by| discovering and returning to Uncle Sam the package of money i mislaid by one of his trusted em ployees. —Chicago Tribune.
