NEWNAN. FIRDAY, MAY2 8.
Resolutions of Woman's Missionary
Society of First Baptist Church.
The Master having removed from our
midst one of our most faithful and be
loved members, the following resolu
tions are offered as an expression of
our loss. Be it resolved-
1. That the home-going of Mrs. Re
becca Lester deprives our society of
one who, by her loyalty and interest in
all that affected the religious advance
ment of the church life, had won for
herself a place in the love and esteem
of all know her.
2. That the W. M. S. sorrows deeply
over the vacancy thus created in our
ranks, and realize the loss we have
sustained.
3. That the memory of her faithful
Christian life remains with us, an in
spiration to our church and community.
4. That we shall strive to emulate
the lessons of patience, faithfulness
and usefulness and unselfishness her
life has taught us.
5. That we extend to her loved ones
our deepest sympathy and the com
forting hope “that a brighter, happier
sphere will give her to their arms
again.”
6. That a copy of these resolutions
be furnished the family, the Newnan
Herald for publication, and that this
memorial be entered upon our minutes
on a page dedicated to her memory.
Respectfully submitted,
Mrs. B. C. Sanders,
Mrs. John R. Cates,

A lazy liver and sluggish bowels will

gripe or nauseate. They banish that

Obituary.
Charles Featherston McWilliams was
born Jan. 31, 1861, and died April 14,
1915.
Although stricken with a fatal dis
ease, he bore his sufferings with pa
tience and fortitude. From childhood
he had been a devoted member of the
Methodist church, and the Sunday-
school was his greatest delight. By
strict devotion to the cause of the
Lora he developed a symmetrical
Christian character that challenged
the admiration of all who knew him.
He was a servant of the Lord Jesus.
He was a quiet, unassuming man,
though a faithful one. We tried to en
courage him that he might get up from
this spell of sickness, but he said, “No;
I am going to die, but it is allright;
I am not afraid to die.” Thank God,
he was ready. “Be ye also ready. ”
He is survived by his wife and three
children —Mrs. W. Eugene Chandler,
Stewart McWilliams and Myrtle Mc
Williams—one daughter, Ruby, having
preceded him to the beyond.
We can only say: “Thy will be done;
the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh
away; blessed be the name of the
Lord.” A Loving Wife.
Lutherville, Ga., May 18th.
(opted by the church Sunday-schoo.
and Ladies' Missionary Society of the
Presbyterian church of Turin, Ga.
In the death of our beloved co
worker and friend, Mrs. Nettie Scrog-
gin, all branches of our little church have
lost a moat faithful and earnest mem
ber. Therefore, let it be resolved —
1. That we humbly bow to our
Father’s will, knowing that "He doeth
all things well," and is guided by love.
2. That the memory of her unfailing
devotion and constant unselfishness for
the cause of the mother shall be an in
spiration to us who are left; that it
may be an example, and stimulate us
to more earnest endeavor, for what
her hands found to do she did to the ut
most of her ablity.
3. That we extend to the family our
deepest sympathy. We will miss her
from her accustomed place in church,
in the society, and the Sabbath-school,
for which she labored year after year
with untiring zeal and love. We will long
cherish her memory, and hope that her
loyalty to her church will be an in
spiration to those who are left. "The
master calls no one home till this work
is done.”
4. That a copy of these resolutions
be Bent to the family, be inserted in
the minutes of the Ladies' Missionary
Society, and that The Newnan Hearld
be requested to publish same.

Occasionally human nature comes
out in a way to command attention and
strike the universal note. The Cape
Cod Independent gives an example in
a trespass notice which it declares
was painted on two barrel staves end
nailed on a tree by a much-harassed
Cape Cod farmer:
“Notis Trespasers will be purse-
cuted to the ful extent of 2 mongrul
dogs which aint never been overly
soshule to strangers and 1 dub-
ble-barl shot gun whitch aint loaded
with sofy pillars, dam if I aint get-
tin tired of this helraisin on my proper
ty.”

"Oh, mamma!” exclaimed Isabelle,
one night when she came home from
school, “I saw a girr across the street
I thought I knew, so I crossed over to
speak to her; she thought Bhe knew me,
but when we got near together, what
do you think? It wasn't either of us.

These Deadly Weapons Fire Soma 700
Bullet* a Minute.
Tbo machine gun, which pours forth
a direct hail of small caliber bullets, is
one of the deadliest weapons of mod-
ern warfare.
From the clumsy Got llog gun has
come the modern “automatic," mount
ed on a light tripod, and weighing loss
thnn forty pounds. All the armies use
these guns, which, although they vary
somewhat in type, are essentially alike
In their mechanism and In their effec
tiveness.
In the Benet-Mercio automatic ma
chine gun of the French army a metal
feed strip, or clip, that contains thirty
ordinury army rltlo cartridges Is in
serted in a slot on the right side of the
gun. As the trigger Is pulled the bolt
mechunlum Is released and, guided by
the main firing spring, pushes a car
tridge iuto the rifle chamber.
The Instant the cartridge Is In plnce
the breech mechanism locks nnd the
charge Is exploded. On its way through
the rifle barrel, a little of the gas from
the exploded powder Is diverted through
a hole In the side of the barrel, and so
acta on a piston ns to forco the holt
mechanism hack and to compress the
mala spring.
In returning, the bolt mechanism
pulls the empty shell from tho cham
ber and throws It out below, so that
It does not Interfere with the new
cartridge thnt Is now forced In from
above.
The mechnnlsin Is so perfect thnt the
operation described takes plnce In a
small fraction of n second, nnd the
bullets issue from the mouth of tills
deadly weapon nt tho rate of seven
hundred a minute.—Youth's Com
panion.
ACCIDENTAL DISCOVERIES.
YOURHEALTH
Origin of 8tarch From Corn and of
Silver Plating.
How to make starch from corn
(maize) wns discovered accidentally by
Thomas Klngsford. n mechanic. One
day he threw a mess of cornmenl mush
Into a garbage palL His wife emptied
some lye Into the same pall, and In the
morning when he emptied the pall he
was astonished to And a small quan
tity of starch at the bottom.
Thomas Bolsover, a Sheffield me
chanic, was mending tho handle of a
knlfo made of copper and sliver. He
saw these metals fuse together and the
Idea of sliver plating wns born In bis
mind. He laid a thin plate of sliver
on a heavier one of copper and heated
them till the edge of the silver began
to melt Ho took them from the fire,
let them cool slightly, then rolled and
hammered them to the desired thick
ness. This was the origin of "Sheffield
plate,” all of which was made In this
wn.v until electroplating was Invented.
Cornelius Dubbel left a bottle of
aqua regia (a mixture of nitric and
muriatic acids) on a shelf. It fell over,
the acid ran down over a window and
dropped Into u bottle containing an
extract of cochineal. Tills turned to a
vivid scarlet Dubbel found that the
acid had dissolved some of the tin of
the window casing and the combina
tion had produced the new color. A
few experiments udded the most bril
liant color to the list of dyes.
The accident by which Itoentgen dis
covered the X rays Is too recent to
need repeating now.—New York World.
Don’t Endanger it With
Calomel.
It is generally agreed by experts in
this country and Europe that calomel
has a very violent effect on the system.
This accounts for the familiar disagree
able feeling accompanying a dose, and
the weakened condition following it.
Liv-Ver-Lax is a harmless vegetable
compound, that is a mild, but effective
substitute for calomel. Ithas all the ej-
fectivene88, but not the effect, oj calomel.
Its splendid value has brought it into
such wide use that in some StateB it
has almost entirely replaced calomel.
Just try Liv-Ver-Lax once, and you’ll
never use calomel again. Insist on the
genuine, bearing the likeness and sig
nature of L, K. Grigsby, which iB
guaranteed to give satisfaction or mon
ey refunded. For sale by John R.

HUSBAND RESCUED
DESPAIRING WIFE
Alter Four Yean of Discouraging
Conditions, Mrs. Bullock Gave
Up in Despair. Husband
Came to Rescue.
Catron, Ky.—In an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: “I suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, 1 could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
***• At times, I would have severe pains
‘n my left side.
The doctor was called in, and his treat
ment relieved me for a while, but I was
soon confined to my bed again. After
that, nothing seemed to do me any good.
I had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle ol
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.”
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don't give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows whal
it will do. Ask him. He will recom
