VOLUME XIII vived by her husband and one lit tle daughter. Her remains were carried to Laurel Hill cemetery last Sunday morning at 10 o’clock and interred, Revs. A. A. Tilly and D. S. McCurry conducting the The- friends *of fire department in town, and a fire truck was sent in response thereto. The water in the tank proved en tirely insufficient to stay the blaze and the structure burnt like tin- * der. In BO minutes after it caught it was a ruin. Save for the water in the tank the building had no protection. There were 75 inmates in the home. The building was insured for $20,000. It cost about $40,- 000. Scarcely anything has been saved. A movement has been started to rebuild the home by popular subscription.. her ability to make that home a home. This is a knowledge which does not glare oppressively in the drawing-room; but when she mar ries it becomes more and more golden year by year. The young Southern mother happily married does not think her life restricted because that life is homelife. She does not feel ‘cabined, cribbed, confined.’ She enjoys brief ex cursions into the outside world; but Bhe tires readily, and on the return journey her eyes light up as the car-wheels whir under her, and she thinks, ‘Each revolution is that much nearer home! ’ If some wrestler wearied in the arena of earth’s activities, some cynic sickened with ‘this deep disease of life,’ should seek her m her peace ful fastness, and, borrowing from sardonic Iago, tell her that her mission is to ‘suckle fools and chronicle email beer,’ she would smile superior. She knows bet ter. Home«is home—in summer when the wide fields stir not in the swooning noons; in autumn when hillside and valley blaze in a riot of hue; in winter when the mild air has a tang that merely hints of snow in the’ far country whence the wild goose beats his way with steady wing; in spring time when she sees ‘the fat soil rise and roll in smooth, dark waves back from the plow.’” ' [Find Peruna to be an Unfailing and Prompt Remedy.] Miss Mary Goerbing, of Medford, Wis., speaks in glowing praise of Peruna as a catarrhal tonic and nerve restorer. She says: "/ take great pleasure in acknowledge ing the curative powers of Peruna.

He says: “In former days the more slaves a girl’s father owned, the more she felt it a requirement to become an accomplished housewife. These recondite arts, of which we men pierce not the mysteries and see only the results, are preserved to day ‘down Southland if there is one qualify which more than an other endears a Southern girl to her worshipers it is her love of home, her pride in her home and was lined and costs, which amounted to $45.00, 'Children’s The observance of Djay ” at Hobjbs’ chapel last Sun day was an interesting event, in the history of that place.
