for ten years with dyspepsia. He
spent hundreds of dollars for medi

down the evening paper when I saw
an item in the paper in regarding
the merits of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure*
I concluded to try it and while I
had no faith in it I felt better after
the second dose. After using two
bottles I am stronger and better
than I have been in years, and I
recommend Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
to my friends and acquaintances
suffering from sotmach trouble.

Sad Death of Miss •Innnic Hightower
in Atlanta.
It was with deep regret that the
McDonough friends of Miss Jannie
Hightower received the sad nows of
her death, which occurred at half
past one o’clock Tuesday morning
in Atlanta after an extended illness.
Miss Jannie was a beautiful and
lovely young lady, esteemed and
admired by numbers of friends.
She was the daughter of the late
W. W. Hightower of this city, and
moved to Atlanta with her mother
several years ago, just as she was
entering young womanhood, devel
oping into many charms of person
and character. She was a niece of
Mr. N. A. Glass and Mrs. L. A.
Turner, and sister of Mrs. Jim
Woodruff, of this city, with other
relatives in Flippen and Stock
bridge, and to the bereaved ones
much sympathy goes out. The re
mains were brought to McDonough
Wednesday morning for interment,
and after funeral services from the
Methodist church by Rev. R. A.
Edmondson, were laid to rest in the
city cemetery.
The following notice appeared in
the Atlanta Journal:
“Miss Jannie Hightower, the
twenty-one year old daughter of
Mrs. S. P. Pojie, died Tuesday
morning at 1 o’clock at St. Joseph’s
infirmary after three months' ill
ness. Her death was the result of
a complication of diseases,
Miss Hightower was an employee
of J. M. High & Co., for four years
and she had many friends who will
be pained to learn of her death.
She is survived by her mother,
Mrs. Pope, three sisters, and one
brother, all of Atlanta.
The remains were carried to her
residence, 96 South Pryor street
immediately after her death, and
will be carried to McDonough, her
old home Wednesday morning at 7
o’clock for interment.”
Found a Cure for Indigestion.
I use Chamberlain’s Stomach and
Liver Tablets for indigestion and
find that they suit my case better
than any dyspepsia remedy I have
ever tried and I have used many
different remedies. lam nearly
fifty-one years of age and have suf
fered a great deal from indigestion.
I can eat almost anything I want to
now. —Geo. W. Emory, Rock Mills,

In Memory of l ncle ICod Fargason.
On Nov. 24, 1908, Uncle Rod gently
breathed his last here on earth.
Oil! how sad it was to give him up; but
we feel that our loss is his eternal gain.
\\ e know that he has crossed over on
the happy golden shore, where the faith
ful part no more. We know if we will
live a true Christian life, as he did, we, too,
shall cross over and rejoice with him, sing
ing that tieautiful hymn loved so well,
•'1 ve cast my heavy burden down on
Canaan’s happy shore,
I m living where the healing waters flow:
I 11 wander in the wilderness of doubt and
sin no more;
1 in living where the healing waters
flow.”
I know he is singing it this beautiful
Sabbath morning, and rejoicing with
Jesus and loved ones around that great,
white throne above. Oh ! what a vacant
pluce he leaves in his home and around the
fire-side. Not only there, but he leaves a.
vacant place at Turner's church that ne’er
can lie filled.
Oh! dear young people, let us all try and
follow after his good examples, so we, too,
shall lie ready and waiting when the sum
mons come.
For we know not the day nor hour when
the Son of Man shall come.
He had turned everything over to the
Cord and was enjoying the good meetings
everywhere he could attend, and especially
the meeting at that good old sacred spot
at Timberridge church last February, 1908.
It was such a glorious meeting, and he
did bike such an interest In the young peo
ple of this community. And oh! are we
all still striving to enter in at the straight
gate as we once started out to do? I
thought it was the brightest Sabbath
morning I had ever seen, the next Sabbath
after the meeting closed at Timberridge.
It seemed like everybody was full of God’s
love and was willing and ready to do and
go where God would have them go.
Uncle Roil leaves a wife and live children
and a host of relatives and friends to
mourn his loss.
May the God of all grace comfort the
stricken ones, keep them faithful, so they
may meet again.
One by one God’s children are gathering
home.
His life was such as Ijecometh the gos
pel of Christ, and with the peace of God
abiding to the end he went home to heav
en to join the preceding loved ones and to
await and beckon homeward the ones left
behind.
I know he’s sitting at Jesus’ fi*et so happy v
Telling of his precious love, gathering thtj
flowers of God’s garden,
Fori know he will not care.
