In Memoriam.
"Written for the Homk JotrnxAL.
In the sad death of Mrs.Jacob
F. Heard of Rutland, which oc
curred August 6th, 1901, the coun
try certainly lost one of its best
and most beloved Christian ladies
She was born 1822 and was mar
ried July 7th 1889, of which there
were 6 boys and 4 girls; J. M
B. A:, J. P., J. F., J. 'H7, anci
W. J. Heard,Mrs.Dr. Shinholster,
Mrs. Moring, Mrs. Grace, anc.
Mrs. Postell.
She joined the Primitive Bap
tist church in 1844, being the
oldest member of Sardis church at
the time of her death, leading a
Christian life for 57 years. No
one ever knew her but to love her.
May the good Lord bless each and
every one of her generation and
guide them to that same place
“up yonder” where we feel sure
she is resting now. After a life
of nearly 4 score years the shad
ows fall and she sleeps. The hands
so ready to do a kind deed, to
soothe a weary brow, are folded
in quiet above the heart that beat
so warmly with pity for the suf
fering, with love for all; the lips
that spoke only words of comfort
one silent now, and-as she sleeps
in dreamless slumber beneath the
oaks of Sardis cemetery, we need
no monument to make us remem
ber her. She lives in the hearts
of her dear children and friends.
She undoubtedly followed in the
footprints of Jesus, who said“ Suf
fer little children to come unto
me.” %
She rejoiced with those that
were joyous, and mourned with
those that wept, and everywhere
she went was the same true and
tried friend. The frail body rests,
yet in our fancy we follow the pre
cious soul even to the gates of the
Father’s house, and can hear the
angels welcome as she enters in,
and when at last the sleep of the
body is ended, and in the dawn of
the new day, we shall gather be
fore the throne and hear them
say, “she was so good to me in
my troubles, and comforted me
in my sorrows.” Thank God for
such a woman as she was to be
among us. Would that my pen

A writer in the Saturday Eve

at a dinner recently in company
with Artists Walden and Whist
ler wnen England was the topic
of conversation. “England,
said Mr. Whistler, “rules the
world simply because the English
man takes'what he wants.”
We were rapidly losing our
selves in a fog of politics and nat

It was the first time he had spo

Calmly and slowly he said:
“I was down at Cernay last
summer—with Faulkner—paint

there and the old woman who
keeps it. There was an English
man there who sat next to me at
table. Well, the landlady gave
us strawberries one night for din

pretty good. The servant gir

The reported discovery of beds
of nitrate of soda in Nevada, says
the Engineering and Mining Jour
nal, may prove of considerable
importance. They are near Love
lock, in Humboldt county, and a
company has already been formed
to prospect and develop them.
Chili at present furnishes the
world’s supply, and the use of the
mineral for agricultural piirposes
is increasing. A large deposit
which could be worked and put on
the market at a reasonable cost
ought to be a valuable property.
The extent of the new" beds is as
yet very imperfectly known.

Cure for Dysentery
Diarrhoea.

“Some years ago I was one of a
party that intended making a long
bicycle trip,” says F.<L. Taylor,
of New Albany, Bradford County,
Pa. “I was taken suddenly with
diarrhoea, and was about to give
up the trip, when editor Ward, of
the Laceyville Messenger, suggest
ed that I take a dose of Chamber
lain’s Colic,Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. I purchased a bottle and
two doses, one before startiug and
one on the route. I made the trip
successfully and never felt'any ill
effect. Again last summer I was
almost completely run down with
an attack of dysentery. I bought
a bottle of this same, remedy and
this time one dose cured me.’’Sold

Suppose some morning there
should appear in the newspapers
such an item as this: “Mr. and
Mrs. Albert Wettin, accompanied
:>y their nephew, Mr. Frederick
W. Y. A. Hohenzollern, sailed
yesterday from Liverpool to New
York.” How many people would
give more than a passing glance
at this announcement? Yet it
would be a piece of news calculate
ed to throw the people of New
York, and the whole of this coun
try, in fact, into a paroxysm of
excitment and a feverish expecta
tion, as must be admitted when
the names of King Edward VII,
Queen Alexandra, and Emperor
William of Germany are respect
ively submitted for the true fam
ily names given in the suppositi
tious item. Then there is the
youthful matron, Mrs. Henry
Schwerin, who wields more power
than any other woman of twenty-
one living. She is known /to the
world as Wilhelmina of Holland,
and is the only Queen in tho world
to-day with the same powers as a

Square Garden, New York City, where
it was a seven days wonder.
