IN MEMORIAM.
Written For The Home Journal
Bro. George Paul, who took his
flight from this world, to a purer,
better land, on the morning of
Feb. 10th, was an honorary mem
ber of the Woman’s Foriegn Mis
sionary Society of Perry M. E.
church. When ho joined the so
ciety, 8 years before, he did so
with a purpose, not as many do,
interested for the moment, then
become indifferent, and drift out;
he was always interested, and
ready to respond to our calls, for
dues or special offerings. His
zeal for missions was so great that,
although he was a busy, active
elder in the Presbyterian church,
he could still find time to help
in the enterprises of other church
es, therefore be it resolved:
1st. That in the death of our
dear Brother,we have lost a faith
ful friend, and an earnest mem
ber, whose willing liberal offer
ings will be sadly missed.
2nd. That as a society we hon
or his memory, because of his
Godly life, and strive earnestly to
emulate his examble in faithful-
to duty.
8rd. That we herewith extend
our sincere sympathy to the be
reaved family, and pray that they
may all be remitted in the home
above.
4th. That a coppy of these res
olution,be spread upon our record,
be furnished the family and pub
lished in the county paper.
Respectfully sigued.
Mrs. S. D. Rogers,
Mrs. F. M. Houser,
Committee.
Saved Many a Time
Don’t neglect coughs and colds'
even if it is spring. Such caseB
often result seriously at this sea
son just because people are care

Cough Cure will remove all dan
ger. Absolutely safe. Acts at
once. Sure cure for coughs, colds,
croup, grip, bronchitis, and other
throat and lung troubles. ‘‘I have
used One Minute Cough Cure sev
eral years,” says Postmaster C.’O.
Dawson, Barr, 111. “It is the
very best cough medicine on the
market. It has saved me many a
severe spell of sickness and I
warmly recommend it.” The
children’s favorite. Holtzclaw’s

The Moral Boundary Line.
There is a narrow line which
separates virtues from vices, ex
cellent qualities of character from
ruinous faults, says the Saturday
Evening Post. It is drawn straight
through moderation. There econ
omy becomes miserliness, gener
osity becomes prodigality, pru
dence becomes cowardice and
courage becomes rashness.
It is singular how many .vices
are simply the excess of virtues.
Justice may run into severity and
mercy into softness. Tolerance
has not far to go to degenerate
into xbsolute indifference and
faith is easily carried into credu
lity, superstition.
Possibly it would hardly be cor
rect to say that many people are
too good, but it is a fact that
many otherwise gracious and lov
able souls are void of that whic h
makes goodness itself to be de
sired—that is, moderation.
There must be a balance of vir
tues, a proper moral perspective.
A man who is too straight leans
over backward. The strenuous
life is in danger of becoming the
lawless, the violent. We argue
subconsciously, “If a thing is
good, the more the better.” But
too much freedom is license, too
much exercise is waste, too much
zeal is fanaticism, too much light
is blindness.—Selected.
A VALUABLE MEDICINE.
For Coughs and Colds la Children
“I have not the slightest hesi
tancy in recommending Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy to all who
are suffering from coughs or
colds,” says Chas. M. Cramer,
Esq., a well known watch maker,
of Colombo, Ceylon. “It has
been some two years since the
City Dispens'ary first called my at
tention to this valuable medicine
and I have repeatedly used it and
it has always been beneficial. It
has cured me quickly of all chest
colds. It is especially effective
for children and seldom takes
more than one bottle to cure them
of hoarseness. I have persuaded
many to try this valuable medi
cine, and they are all as well
pleased as myself over the re
sults,” For sals by all dealers

Germany has recently taken
statistics of the beer production
and consumption of the empire.
During last year the production
amonnted to a little more than
1.860.000. 000 gallons. There were
15.000. 000 gallons imported. The
consumption amounted to an av
erage of 182.2 quarts per capita
fur the empire, or something more
than 83 gallons for each man, wo
man and child during the twelve
months. This seems to show that
the German is still a lover and
good drinker of beer.
A Raging, Roaring Flood
Washed down a telegraph line
which Chas. C. Ellis, of Lisbon,
la., had to repair. “Standing
waist deep in icy water,” he
writes, “gave me a terrible cold
and cough. It grew worse daily.
Finally the best doctors in Oak
land, Neb., Sioux City and Omaha
said I had Consumption and could
not live. Then I began using Dr.
King’s New Discovery and was
wholly cured by six bottles.”

About 16,000,000 pounds of
macaroni are annually shipped to
to the United States from Italy.
Now there is talk of a candy
trust; not, however, to make a
specialty of the crystallized fruits
and cosily bonbons of the rich,
but to control the manufacture
and sale of the taffy and lollipops
that are purchased by the poor.
When the trust gets in control of
the poor child’s candy supply,
there will be less of pure sugar
and more of adulterants in the
sweets that may be purchased with
the child’s few available pennies.
A queer mining industry has
been started.in Arizona, famous
for its heat and dryness. In the
northern part of the state there
is an ice cave in which there is
said to be an inexahustible supply
of excellent natural ice. This is
to be mined and and sold to towns
along the Santa Fe road. The
temperature of the cave drops
sixty degrees in the first twenty
minutes of descent.
Wants To Help Others.
“I had stomach trouble all my
life,” says Edw. Mehier, proprie
tor of the Union Bottling Works,
Erie, Pa., “and tried all kinds of
remedies, went to several doctors
and spent considerable money
trying to get a moment’s peace
Finally I read of Kodol Dyspep
sia Cure and have been taking it
to my great satisfaction. I never
found its equal for stomach trou
ble and gladly recommend it in
hope that I may help other suf
ferers.” Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
cures all stomach troubles. You
don’t have to diet. 9 Kodol Dys
pepsia Cnre digests what you eat.

Another effort will be made to
secure from congress an appro

the water hyacinth, which has of
late years spread so rapidly in
Louisiana, Mississippi and Flori

their navigation and to harass and
injure the logging, timber and
oyster business.
