She was one of those rare charac ters of whom the Savior said: “Behold the Israelite in whom there is indeed no guile. 1 ’ At the age of fifteen she joined the Baptist church at Milner and lived the life of the Christian whose death makes friends sad and angels glad. She possessed a happy disposition ijJtich shone with luster to the last. ifrlßien she felt herself growing rapidly "Hreaker she tried to comfort her • heart-broken husband and her unfal tering faith is enough to turn his thoughts toward heaven for “where treasure is there the heart is also.’’ A strong mans tears are an unmis fcdten token of grief and when they dropped on the hand he caressed she looked upPilfcjt smile and said, “It’s all right, Frank, I' am ready, but <ldn’ t cry— it makes me sorry to leave for I could be so happy with you and the baby.” She gave her father and mother the blessed assurance that parting with loved ones was the only sting death had. Her deathbed scene will live in the memory of those who saw her cheerful submission of Him who doeth all things ra. * \ She married Mr. Frank Bogle att home in Pike county March 29th, 1898, and soon afterwards moved to Barnesville, where their home was filled with the most perfect bliss al lotted to mortals—domestic happi ' ness. The only sorrow that cast a shadow o’er her short life was the death of her sister, Miss Ada Kitch ings, who died about a month ago. The Pearly Cates were left ajar until these sisters were reunited where parting is no more. Her consecrated, Unselfish life can be no better de scribed than in the words of the poet who Says, Is' . ’ “1 live for those who love me. For those who know me true; heaven that smiles above me Anfi waits my spirit, too. “IjSr the right that needs assistance, i]pr the wrong that needs resistance, For the future in the distance And the good that I can do." ‘ Under a mighty weight of sorrow like tins words of human comfort fall heavy on the heart like clods on the coffin lid and those who look up Can see the ratufeow of His promise. Relictions Bu Presbyterian Sunday Schools The following resolutions were passed by the Presbyterian Sunday school: • Whereas, It has seemed best to our All wise Father to remove irom our midst our beloved friend and brother, Cob S. N. Woodward; there fore be it tesolved Ist: That by the death bt this Christian man our town has lost one of its most progressive and valued ckizens, the legal profes sion has lost one of its most able and conscientious members, the Presby terian Sunday school of Barnesville has lost one its most eftkent and be loved teachers, an able and earnest exponent of the gospel of Jesus and. That we assure the two thus deprived of the counsel and sympathy ot a devo ted parent of our heartfelt sympathy and prayers that our dear Heavenly Father may comfort and sustain them and keep them ever in his protecting care. We commend them to Him who ‘%oeth all things well,” ami bow in humble loving submission to His will. .Resolved 3rd That a copy of these fisolution be inscribed in the Sunday Record book,, and a copy be afvcn'to the children of our deceased Cue Minute Cough Cure, cures. Tkat U wfcat It *u aude tw> Resolutions by Council. Official notice of the death of our city attorney having been made,which sad event occurred on Aug. Ist, 1899, the following resolution was unani mously adopted by the city council: That in the death of Col. Stephen N. Woodward, our esteemed city at torney, this body has sustained a great loss. Upon him rested the safe guidance of our aftairs when legal issues were involved. As numerous and frequent as these issues were, in volving the gravest question:*, he was equal to every emergency. Me was an able counselor, a safe and conservative adviser, a true and faithful official, prompt in the dis charge of every duty. In middle life, just as his usefulness and ability was being called into activity by his peo pie, he is summoned hence from labor to rest. We cannot withhold a tear to his memory, and we, for ourselves and the entire community, tender to his loved ones our sympathy and sorrow. i * City Cot tun Crop-6,000 Bales. Hon. J. M. Kirk writes from Mo ravia, Texas, to the Schulenberg Sticker under date of April 19th last: “My larmer friends, look at every cotton platform as you pass by and you will see the present (square) bale standing on its head with from two to four great gaping wounds at the mercy of those who want to pilfer. I'he number of bales in Texas taken Trom the original runs up into the thousands. I remember during the session of the last Legislature, when the bill kyown as the Compress Bill was being discussed iu the committee room, a gentleman from Galveston, who was opposing the measure, in answer to a question asked by me (one of the comnntteejhow many bales of cotton were made by the compres ses iv) Galveston that were taken from the original bales compressed hhere. He answered ‘About six fhousand bales.’ ” And yet there are thosetwho decry the American Cotton Company's Rouncflap > bale, frofn which there is not one ounce of waste and which reaches the mill ex actly as it leaves the press.

Many of them are scattered j throughout the town and are now the property of the Bamesville Public Library. * * * It is gratifying to note the interest manifested by the children, and for tunate, indeed, it is that there are many books suited to their tastes. When a boy or girl is engrossed with a good book you know they are in good company, but that is not always true when they are on the street. No book in the library promises to be more popular than “David Harum,” in which there are both pathos and wit as well as a very pretty love story. A bright woman says: “The beauty of it all is that you feel like you could have written it yourself.” * * * * * A valuable contribution to the library would be a good reference Bible in large, clear type. There are religious books but as yet no copy of the Holy Scriptures. They Have Moved. The Reeves Boys have moved their stock of goods to the Holmes build ing, which they purchased some time ago, and which has been occupied for several years by the Penny Racket. The building and location are excel lent for the business of the Reeves Boys and they will continue to pros per there. They are good merchants and enjoy a large trade. Mr. J. R. Deavours has moved his stock to the Smith building and will therefore be found there with his large and well-assorted stock of goods. He is proprietor of the Rouss Racket and has been quite successful as a business man. The trading public will be benefited by calling on Mr. 1 )eavours at the Smith building. Mayor And Aldermen Elected. ** Election for mayor and aldermen ■of Bamesville to serve for the next two years was held Tuesday. A small vote was polled as is always the case where there is no opposition and the entire vote was cast for Mr. J. L. Kennedy, for mayor, and for Messrs. J. F. Howard, J. F. Taylor and V. O. Marshburn for aldermen. All these gentlemen have had experience in municipal aftairs and an extensive ex perience in business matters and they will doubtless give to Bamesville an ex cellent administration. The healthy old man wears his gray hairs like a silver crown. What iftheir be threescore and ten if there is still fire in his eye, firmness in his step, command in his voice and wisdom in his counsel? He commands love and reverence. Yet how few wear the mantle of age with dignity. Dim eyed, querulous of speech, halting in step, childish in mind, they ‘‘lag su perfluous on the stage,” dragging out the fag end of life a simple existence. The secret of a healthy old age is a healthy middle age. The man who takes care of jiis stomach, who keeps his body properly nourished, will find that the body does not fail him in old age. The great value of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery lies in the preservation of the working power of the stomach and other organs of di gestion and nutrition. From this | center is distributed the nourishment of the whole body, the salt for the blood, the lime for the bones, phos phates for the brain and nerves. A i sound stomach means a sound man. i A man who keeps his stomach sound |by the use of "Golden Medical Dis- Icovery” will wear the crown of gray | hairs as befits a monarch, with dignity and ease. STORE FOR RENT. My 'brick store occupied by Whit akers market, is for rent. Apply to Dr. J. L. Fogg, Mr. G.E. Huguley or theqpdersigncd. Mrs. Emma Gvttenbkrger. THE PUBUGjptflßy • When the ladies of the town began to agitate the qnestion +of a public library last winter there were many who tried to quench their enthusiasm by prophecies that, naught would come 01 their efforts. Time, however, has again proven that perseverance can overcome obstacles, for the libra ry is here and no irstitulion in Bar nesville is more deserving of the sup port and patronage of the people. The commodious room in the rear of J. H. Bate & Co.'s jewelry store has been fitted up in a most attractive manner and several hundred books are already on the shelves ready for the readers. Another shipment of books is daily expected and contribu tions from private citizen's will swell the number beyond one thousand in a short time. The book committee wisely expended only a part of the fund in hand in the first purchase in order to be able to add new publica tions and such others as may be in demand by the readers. In regard to the books it is well for the public to know that they are books that people want to read. In fiction there are the standard works as well as new books by well known writers of the day. This class of literature predom inates because there is the greatest demand for it but care has been tak en to provide only books that can safely be placed in the hands of young readers. The poets And his torians as well as miscellaneous writ ers have not been neglected and a magnificent collection of reference books and encyclopedias wilbbe ready to furnish the student with , needed information. : w--- In a few weeks a number of the best magazines and periodicals will be on the tables for the use of members of the Library Association. Comtortable chairs in a welt lighted room add to the attractiveness of the library and there can be ncLbetter place to spend qne's leisure -hours. Ladies will find there a quiet-resting place during their shopping expedi tions. The members of the \ propose to keep up Barnesville's rep utation by making the publicdibrary the very best institution of it’s <sass in the state. From this date to Jan. Ist, 1900, all the above advantages can cured by the payment of twenty-fire cents for ladies and fifty cents „f*®r gentlemen. After Jan. Ist the named sums must be paid quarterly in advance on the first days aiy, April, July and October. Mem bers from the country and neighbor ing towns w'ill be gladly welcomed. No man, woman or child in BArndl, ville can aftord to deny himsel# *or herself this great opportunity f ¥€- provement and pleasure. Atembes ship certificates can be secured Mr. W. T. Bate, the librarian, jqhjfl library room. • r£Ek New Improvements. The Collier Cos. have recently spent, quite a lot of money on the interior of their dry goods stole and they fflßj have one of the handsomest dry goodkj establishments in the state. Itds a] treat to visit their store and it is -.50] wonder that their trade is always growing.
