GILMER COUNTY
The following rhymes were written
Rev. George A. Hill, a long time
bellum teacher in Gilmer. Mr.
was ‘‘called to the far off golden shore
several years ago.
After leaving Gilmer County Mr.

serving as mayor of the last
place. He is survived by one
and one sister, J. P. Hill and Mrs. W.

Where my ---- youthful feet hive trod;
Thy purling brooks and fountains
Are the noble work of God.
Think of sunny sloping plains,.
Where silver waters flow;
On the lace of old Cohutta
Where the golden chestnuts grow.
I think^f that wild mountain,
With its vir.e-clad maple trees;
Where I plucked the vernal floweis
And did watch the native bees.
i seem to hear their humming, K :
Andcan almost feel their sting
Beneath the shady maples
At the bubiing mountain spring,
The cow bells made sweet music,
In ihe dells of living green;
Around the towering summits
The fleecy flocks were seen,
The lowing herds, the frisky deer,
And Lirds not on the wing,
Drank water from the cooling brook
Or from the mountain spring.

Before my cheeks were fading
Or my hair was turning gray,
The public square was lively,
With my comrades good and true;
Whose voices shook the welkin
While the * drank the moun,airi ,lew

It Ulls my Heart with sadness
Likewise mine eyes with tears.
I cannot meet those comrades,
Where the Loaten way was trod;
But hope to meet them later
In the happy home of God.
That home they say is lovely,
On the far off golden shore;
Where reunion lasts forever
And where parting is no more.
The voice of triumph ringing,
From that homo beyond the sky;
Calls up from me this answer
**I’m coming by and by.”

Father Of Sixteen
End Near-Told Wife What
To Do With Children
When He Died
W hat is probably the most re¬
markable indorsement ever given
a proprietary medicine was the
statement made recently by H.J
Williams, a coal miner at the
Tennessee Coal & Iron Co., mine
No. 8, near Fairfield, Ala-, in the
Birmingham district.
The story of his wondeful res¬
toration to health was told in
his own words, and is profoundly
interesting. His statement fol¬
lows:
“Tam 54 years of age, and am
the tether of sixteen children,
eight living and eight dead. I
came to Birmingham from East
Tennessee, and have fo lowed
min'tig for a good many years.
‘‘About two years ago I took
sick. The doctors at first thought
I had Tapeworm, and then Hook¬
worm and finally decided it was
Pelagra. I took treatment from
wcllknown Alabama Pelagra
‘Cure,’but got no benefit. The
doctors finally told me they
couldn’t do me any good, and I
quit going to see them.
‘I suffered from a sort af numb
feeling all the time in my back,
and was dizzy-headed. I couldn.t
stoo- over, or stand on my feet
fqr J^v Iwiogji of tirjto ,?no
couldn’t hardly eat any thing and
nothing tasted good. In fact, I
was slowly starving to death.
“I lost a'l of my strength, and
fell off -15 pounds in weight I
used to weigh when I was well,
133 paunds, and got down to
where I only weighed 90 pounds,
and was almost a walking skele¬
ton •
“J finally decided that there
was no more hope for me in this
iife, and I gave my ring to my
wife and told her to put the chil¬
dren in the Odd Fellows’ Home
when I died
‘‘This is just the shape I was
in when, one day, m y little
daughter said: ‘Papa’ why don’t
you try that new medicine every¬
body is talking about? It has help
ed so many people, it might help
you,' Of course I had no faith in
anything, but just to please the
family. I made one more trial and
got this Tanlac. May the Lord
bless the day I got this medicine,
for it was my salvation.
‘‘I got relief from the first bot
tie, and I began to eat and pick
up right from the start. I am now
on my fifth bottle, and have act
ually gained back 25 pounds, and
now w^eigh H5- It just looked
like th'e more I took the better I
got, and I keep picking up every
d'.y.

WAR UPON PAIN.
Pain is a visitor to every home and
usually it comes quite unexpectedly.
But you are prepared for every emer¬
gency if you keep a small bottle of
Sloan’s Liniment handy. It is the
greatest pain killer ever discovered.
Simply laid bn the skin—no rubbing re¬
quired—it drives the pain away. It is
really wonderful.
Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal.,
writes: “Last Saturday, after tramp¬
ing around the Panama Exposition with
wet feet, I came home with my neck
so stiff that I couldn’t turn. I applied
Sloan’s Liniment freely and went to
bed. To my surprise, next morning the
stiffness had almost disappeared, four
hours after the second application I
was as good as new.”
