On the morning of Sept. 21, 1900, af ter a short illness, the sweet spirit of aur beloved sister, Mrs. J. F. Hinds- m»n, passed into the beautiful home prepared for God’s saints. Her pure and gentle life had made her greatly loved, both in her own home and in the surrounding community. She lilled her mission as a devoted daughter, loving wife, tender mother and thoughtful sister. Fond, loving hearts cherish her memory and treasure her unselfish life. She loaves three dear children, whom she tenderly committed to a devoted husband’s care and keeping. Her fath er, brothers and sisters, husband and children, and numerous relatives and friends, mourn her death and hope to be with her in that happy land where sickness, sorrow, pain, nor death are felt and feared no more. She* ha« gone to that, munition prepared for the good. Made possible for her by the Savior's life-blood; She is waiting for her loved ones on its eternal shore. Where there* will be* no sickness nor Borrow ever more. VVeep ne»t, le>ve»«l ones, over the Iohb of her life, Hut rejoice with the angel* she is free from Htrife*, No more* to grow weary with pain and High, Hut forever to eiwell with the Savior on high. Resolved, 1. That we bow in humble submission to God, who giveth and tak- eth away. Resolved, 2.

Martin, Clerk pro tem. Mrs. S. Joyce, of Claremont, N. H., writes: “About, a year ago I bought two bottles of Foley’s Kidney Rdmedy. It cured me of a severe case of kidney trouble of several years’ standing. It certainly is a grand medicine and i heartily recommend it. Sold by all druggists. A Word of Comtort. To the Grandchildren of Mrs. J. D. Arnold : “Dear Children : Grandmoth er has gone—yes, gone, and is now en joying life the purest, the best, the eternal and everlasting life above. Oh, give me that life!” Those are a few words of a feeble prayer that fell from her trembling voice on Friday night. Dear children, it is useless for me to tell you she loved you. She hns nursed and ministered to everyone of you. Doubtless many of you will ever remember her parting words: “Be good boys, children.” God grant, whenever you are tempted to be led astray, that you may hear the echo of that still, gentle voice saying, “Be good hoys, children.” Think how many prayers she has uttered in your behalf! Those prayers have ceased yes, have ceased. But may her example live on and on. Some of you were left to her care and keeping while very young. Shu full, thu responsibility very great, and ofttimus said she wondered why *ho could not have died in your dear mother’s stead. But perhaps all will be revealed some day. Although bowed down in grief she faced the responsi bility like a soldier of the Cross. No doubt you often teased and worried her. but 1 want to say she freely for gave, and always plead with our Heav enly Father in your behalf. Dear chil dren. grandfather is left to us. Ho too The Treatment of a Wife. First, get a wife; secondly, be pa tient. You may have great trials and perplexities in your business with the i world, but do not, therefore, curry to your home a cloudy or contracted brow. ' Your wife may have trials, which, though of less magnitude, may be hard for her to hear. A kind, conciliatory word, a tender look, will do wonders in chasing from her brow all clouds of gloom. You encounter your difficulties in open air, fanned by heaven’s cool breeze, but your wife is often shut in from these reviving influences, and her health fails, her spirits lose their elas ticity. But, oh, bear with her! She has trials and sorrows to which you are a stranger, but which your tender ness can deprive of all their anguish. Notice kindly her efforts to promote your comfort. Do not receive all her good offices as a matter of course, and and pass them by, at the same time being very sure to observe any omis sion of what you may consider her duty to you. Sometimes yield your wishes to hers. Her preferences may be as strong as yours. Regard it as an in dulgence to yourself to yield sometimes. Think you it is not difficult for her to give up always? Is there not danger she will deem you selfish? With such an opinion she cannot love you as she might. Again, show yourself a manly man, that your wife may look up to you and feel that you will act nobly, and confide in your judgment. Wedding of An Editor. The editor of the Gaylord (Okla.) Sentinel wrote this account of his own wedding in his paper the other day : “This is the first instance in several years of newspaper work that the wri ter has dared to tell the truth about a wedding, for fear of getting licked, and does so now with a keen relish. The bridegroom is an editor, and is not a popular and accomplished leader of society—in fact, he doesn’t know as much about it as a rabbit. His hair is red, and the freckles on his face crowd each other for room. In the dusk it is hard to distinguish him from a tele phone pole. He has never considered that the future looked very bright or promising it has always kept him too busy paying his board bills to have any dreams about future greatness. He is just a common sort of a fellow, and claims distinction only in that he is a Kansan from the soles of his clumsy feet to the top of his red head. The bride is the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. J. White, and was horn and raised in the Solomon Valley. Judging from the job she has taken on her hands, she is a young lady of more than ex raordinary nerve.” This is an Easy Test.

Atlanta Journal. An announcement of interest to At lanta’s business life is that of Holt & Capers, State agents of the Demot $550 car, now of Newnan, Ga., to the effect that on Jan. 1 they will remove their headquarters to Atlanta, and will there after handle their business throughout the State from this city. Holt & Capers are recognized as among the livest automobile firms of the State. Both members of the firm are hustling men, who are experienced in automobile affairs, and who have un dertaken the agency of a car in which each of them believes—a good car at a price within everybody’s reach. The growing importance of their busi ness has impelled Messrs. Holt & Capers to their decision to locate in Atlanta, where they will be at the vortex of the automobile affairs not only of Georgia, but of the South. They have some un assigned territory still open to wide-a wake agents, but expect to have the whole field covered by the time they move to Atlanta. Their address till Jan. 1 will be at Newnan.

We mourn not as one without hope, for we know that our loss is her eternal gain. Nearly three score years and ten was she on earih, sowing deeds of kindness, charity and love. Modest and unpretentious, yet ever ready to lend a helping hand, she was a woman worthy of imitation. In 1857 she united with the Baptist church at Ebenezer, and for fifty-two years she worked for the Lord. Her passing away was as the gathering of ripened grain. Therefore, be it resolved— 1. That we, the members of Ebene- ezer Baptist church, deeply deplore the loss we have sustained in the death of Sister Arnold, and though we cannot understand the ways of Providence, yet we know God doeth all things well. 2. That we extend to the bereaved husband and children our deepest, sym pathy. May they follow her example until all are united in heaven. Adopted in conference. A. C. Royeton, Clerk.

A HARD STRUGGLE Many a Newnau Citizen Finds the Struggle Hard. With a back constantly aching. With distressing urinary disorders, Daily existence is but a struggle. No need to keep it up. Doan's Kidney Pills will cure you. Newnan people indorse this claim: Mrs. M. E. Smith, 12 First street, Newnan, Ga., says: “Doan’s Kidney Pills are certainly a fine remedy, and I willingly indorse them. For eight years kidney trouble distressed me. it Leiran with a weakness and occasional pain in my back, and steadily grew more severe until it developed into a constant dull aching through this re gion. 1 could not rest comfortably at night and would awake in the morning tired and depressed. Dizzy spells always annoyed me; in fact, I felt very Uvily. A friend recently advised me to take Doan’s Kidney Pills, and pro curing a box at Lee Bros’, drug store, I began their use. They helped me at once, and 1 fully believe that a contin ued use will permanently remove every symptom of my complaint.” l or sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Sold by all dealers. A man ate too much Christmas tur key and mince pie, and hastened to the drug store for antipyrine to deaden the pain. Half an hour later he hastened back again. “Do you know what you have done, man?” he shouted at the druggist. “You have given me strychnine in stead of antipyrine!” And he threw the dangerous packet on the counter. The druggist started and turned pale ; then he sighed with relief. ”Oh,” he exclaimed, “oh, what an error! And how honorable of you to bring the strychnine back. Otherwise I’d have been out nearly a dollar and a half.” More Danville Proof. Jacob Schrall, 432 South St., Danville, Ill., writes; "For over eighteen months 1 was a sufferer from kidney and blad der trouble. During the whole time was treated by several doctors and tried several different kidney pills. Seven weeks ago I commenced taking Foley’s Kidney Pills, and am feeling better every day and will be glad to tell any one interested just what Foley’s Kidney Pills did for me.” Sold by all druggists. Stilphree —“Well, now that you’re married, I suppose your wife expects you to live up to your ideals.” Tidemunn (sadly)—“No, her ideals. ” Mrs. Newed—“George, dear, that range we bought last week is no good. We’ll have to get another one.” Newed—“Why, darling, what’s wrong with it? It’s one of the best made.” Mrs. Newed—“Well, I can’t help that. I tried to bake a lemon pie in it this morning and it came out a pudding.” A doctor prescribed rest and change for a small boy, saying that his system was quite upset. After he had gone the little boy said: ”1 knew I was upset, mamma, be cause my foot’s asleep, and things must be pretty bad when you go to sleep at the wrong end. ” Judge—"How do you earn your liv ing?” Prisoner—“By writing, your honor.” Judge—“And what do you write for? Would you mind telling us?” Prisoner—“Not at all. I write for money from home.” “What do you consider a really bad wreck?” asked the sarcastic reporter, who had been vainly trying to get some information. “That depends.” replied the honest railway official, “on whether it takes place on our line or on some other.” Mr. Pansy —“Just think. 1 was told to-day of a man who buried a wife and two children in the afternoon and then went to the theater in the evening!” Mrs. Pansy—“And yet he wasn’t in considerate; he was only an undertaker. ’’ “Marry me.” pleaded the mere man. “and your slightest wish shall be granted. ” "But,” queried the wise woman, “how about the large ones?” THE PRIME MINISTER. A Foreign Sovereign Responsible For This Englisn Official. Su long as the sovereign himself pre sided at the meetings of ilH* cabinet there was no obvious necessity for giv ing any member of it precedence over tin* others. But from ibe accession of the house of Hanover the king ceased to take part in tile deliberations of ihe cabinet. It has been said, indeed, by a modern statesman that, "with a doubt ful exception in tile time of George III., no sovereign has been present at a meeting of the cabinet since Anne.” The change, like so many other mod ifications whirl) have been introduced into the British constitution, was the result of a purely accidental circum stance. George 1. could not speak the English language. It was clearly use less for a monarch to be present at the meetings of his councilors when he diil not understand the language in which their deliberations were carried on. But when the sovereign was thus necessarily and habitually absent from the cabinet it became requisite that some minister should be chosen who should preside at the meetings and report its decisions to the king. Thus the accession of a foreigner who could not converse in English led to one of the most momentous changes in the constitution. The act of settlement had given England a foreign sover eign; the presence of a foreign sover eign gave England a prime minister.— From "Essays Political and Biograph ical,” by Sir Spencer Walpole. OBESITY CURED. A Remedy That Is Not Liabio to Attain Wide Popularity. Peter the Great was onee traveling incognito in a part of Finland, when he met a very fat man who told him that he was going to St. Petersburg. "What for?” asked the czar. “To consult a doctor about being so fat. which has become very oppress ive.” "Do you know any doctor there?” “No." “Then I will give you a line to mv friend. Prince Menschjkolf. and Iip will introduce you to one of the emperor's physicians.” The traveler went to the prince's house with a note. The answer was not delayed. The next day. tied hands and feet, the poor man was dragged off on a cart to the mines. Two years after Peter ihe Great was visiting the mines. lie had forgotten tlie incident of the fat man. when sud denly a minpr threw down bis pick, rushed up to him and fell at his feet crying: “Grace, grace, wtmt is it 1 have done?" Peter looked at him. astonished, until he remembered the story. "Oh. so that is you!" he said. "I hope you are pleased with me. Staud ap! How thin and slight you have be come! Go. and remember that work is the best cure for your complaint!” Bamboo Shoots as Food. The bamboo sliools that are paten are not yet branched, of a conical form and sheathed in an envelope generally covered by small, prickly bristles. These young shoots emerge very vig orously from the soil at ihe foot of the bamboo lufts. The Chinese and Japa nese. It appears, consume large quanti ties of them. They use them as sea soning will) pork and chicken. The first thing in their preparation natu rally is to rid the sprouts of their dis agreeable sheai v . They are then cut either lengthwise or in slices and are placed in boiling water. The water is renewed once or twice, and after add ing salt a vegetable is obtained which reminds one strongly of the root of Ihe artichoke. The Japanese also eat them preserved in brine or vinegar.

One in known as tlie epidermis, or outer skin, which lias no fibres, and serves principally as a covering to tlie body, and a protection from outward dangers to the delicate flesh beneath. Tlie other layer is known as the derma, or true skin, and is composed of elastic fibres, fat tissue, glands, lymphatics, nerves, etc. The thousands of tiny veins and arteries with which it is interlaced constantly supply every fibre and tissue with healthful properties from the circulation to keep the skin smooth and perfect. Ibis is changed, however, when tlie blood becomes infected with humors, acids or impurities. Instead of constantly supplying rich, nutritive properties to the skin, tlie circulation deposits the acrid impurity with which it is contaminated, into the sensitive fibres and tissues. This causes irritation and inflammation, which splits or breaks the thin outer cuticle, while tlie tissues beneath ulcerate and discharge upon the surface in the form of Eczema, Salt Rheum, Tetter, etc. There is like wise a dry form of skin diseases, such as Acne, Psoriasis, etc. In these varie ties the humor in the blood diseases and inflames tlie glands, hair follicles, etc., causing them to swell and protrude to the outer surface. Pimples, rashes, eruptions and like troubles, are sill de pendent on imperfect blood, and no one can have a good complexion, free from humiliating blemishes, unless the skin is kept healthy by good blood. S.S.S. cures Skin Diseases of every kind by neutralizing the acids and removing the humors from the blood. It cools tlie acid-heated circulation, builds it up to normal strength, multi plies its rich, nutritious corpuscles, and adds to its purity in every way. Then the skin, instead of being irri. tated, inflamed and diseased by acrid impurities or fiery humors, is nourished, soothed and softened by a cool ing, healthy stream of blood. V S. S.
