Obituary.
Again the death antrel has visited
our family and Mrs i J Pruitt is
no more.
Many, who on the morning of
June the fourth heard the Concord
bell toll, and counted the four score
strokes, knew that Grandmother
Pruitt was numbered with the
dead.
After fifty-three days of intense
suffering she passed peacefully a
way at the home of her daughter,
Mrs S C Tatum,
She was first married to Major
L Moorhead. Eight children
blessed their union, six of whom
are still living. One, her eldest
son, was killed at Petersburg dur
ing the Civil War and a little girl
having died in infancy. The living
are Messrs W S Moorhead, of
Crews, Texas, M J Moorhead, of
Madison. Ga., D T Moorehad, of
Arnett, Okla. Mesdames Mary E
Burress, of Anderson, S C., Maggie
A Pruitt, of Ft Worth, Texas, and
Sallie C Tatum, of this place. All
of whom, except Mrs Pruitt, visited
her durtng her last illness.
Mr Moorhead died during the
war and later she was married to
Early E Pruitt who, too, has long
since ventured into the unknown
world.
She joined the Baptist church at
the age of eighteen and has since
lived so as to be worthy to be called
a ehristian. She is a member of
Concord church, to which place
she dearly loved to go and there,
also, is her last resting place. The
funeral exercises were conducted
by Rev J R Stone.
To the bereaved I will say, it is
hard to give up mother or grand
mother, but she has gone to greet
her own. Let us hope and pray
that we, too, may greet our loved
ones in heaven and not one of our
hort shall boleft .out. r
Pray earnestly and unceasingly
that her children who are still in
sin may be made to see their true
condition and repent ere it is too
late, God grant that those of her
grand children, who are still out of
the ark of safety may turn and
live for God to meet their dear old
grandmother once iho^e.
Her granddaughter^
Mrs Alfred M Light.
In Memory of Mrs. AdaTSearden.
‘‘The resurrection and life
llow sweet those wordFsound now
since death has placed his chaplet on our
cherished s’ster’s brow. We looked up
on the dim closed eyes and helpless form
who loved and prayed for us, now silent
in her bier, She lived and loved ; yea
what that love was we know in part, but
in God’s court we will true knowledge
find.
j&She from her labor now may rest, from
her sweet soul all tumult gone, and it is
now a joy to think her work will follow
on. The Master spared her here for many
years to help the weak and. dry the
mourners’ tear.
As sister and wife how well she bore
her part with willing, patient, helpful
hands, with tender loving heart.
Sorrow needs must come to all who are
of woman born. Her lot life had many
a war, its roses many a thorn, and yet h°r
glorious faith stood through every grief
and loss; she took her burden prayerful
ly to our blessed Savior’s cross.
The dear sweet face so well beloved is
hidden from our view. We see no more
the smiling face, tender eyes of brown,
but oh, the resurrection !
How our hearts thrill at the thought
that Christ, a victor ovet death for all his
people have fought.
She is not dead, No, no. .1 hank God,
the life eternal is now hers. No more
that faithful heart can feel the weight of
earthly cares. The one she lcved and
served so well has folded on his breast
with tender arms our dear sister an#giv
en her sweeter rest, and we shall see her
face again. Then let us not regret that
she is gone, for well we know she can
never torget her loved ones here; and
may He, since God himself is love, help
us to struggle bravely on until we meet
.above, ' • Her sister,
Ida Myers.
Twenty Minutes
Time Enough?
To Cure the Worst Headache From Any
Cause —New Reduction Method.
Most headaches and pains yield instantly to
the new Reduction Method—Dr. Shoop’s Twenty
Minute Headache Cure. The cause for thssa
pains is congestion— a rushing of blood to the
nerve centers —which distends the veins to
nearly the bursting point. Swollen and enlarged,
these veins and capillaries exert an irritating
pressure on the myriads, of nerve branches and
fibres. Then, there’s a >&pain. and finally that
excruciating, cease- /ffMkless ache. Thi9 new
Reduction Method / 2SwSSv, disperses the blood,
distributes t h and di
rects it to the channels. It
frees the nerve aSA iTj't from all
pressure and irritation—the
pains and aches disap
pear because /tS g fjppjjY© gjKV their cause
has been moved. You

pify the nerves x into submission
—but the remedy which brings
prompt relief and v'.'gJHSv permanent cure
will be successful because it reduces
the congestion —it must embody tho
Reduction Method, v Medicine has thus
found a way—simple and sure, yet the only way
—to thoroughly overcome these attacks of Head
ache and Neuralgia. The effect of Dr. Shoop’s

THE STRONGEST EV
ER GIVEN.
Extracts From the Strong
est Indorsements Ever
Given an American Busi
ness College.
Ex-Governor Candler, of Atlan
ta, Ga., after testing a three months
graduate of the Byrne Simplified
Shorthand, says ‘‘she is more pro
ficient than many stenographers
who have had as many years in
struction and practice.” The St.
Louis Post Dispatch states that,
‘•Little nine year old Margaret
Simpson, a Byrne Simplified ste
nographer, is the most proficient
stenographer of her age in the
world.” Mrs W G Taylor, of
Coleman, Texas, who holds the
world’s record, writing 178 words
to the minute, unfamiliar matter,
after four weeks and five days
study, says, “The Byrne Simplified
Shorthand is not only speedy, but
simple aud legible.” Ex-Governor
Hubbard, of Texas, said that the
Byrne Business Colleges were, in
his opinion, the most thorough in
scholarship and mode of instruc
tion, F A Kuhns, Second Asst.
Post Master General, of Washing
ton, D, C., says “In the National
Library, I have examined carefully
every system of shorthand copy
righted, and have become convinced
that the Byrne is the nest ” J E
Webb, Pauls Valley, I. TANARUS., United
States Court Reporter, says the
Byrne Simplified Shorthand has no
equal for court, reporting. Miss
Mary Adair, of Maben, Miss., says
she first studied Pitman Shorthand
flien the Byrne, and tbat she found
the advantages of the Byrne almost
incredible, Mr Will Barnett, cf
the U S Treasury Dept., at Wash
ington, D C., says the Byrne Prac
tical Bookkeeping is all that is
claimed for it, and advises those
contemplating taking a course to
take none except the Byrne. Mr
Ward S Ireland, official court re
porter of the 68rd Judicial District
of Texas, says, after failing, on six
different - Pitmanic systems of
shorthand, lie entered a Byrne Bus
iness College, finished the course
and began court reporting in five
weeks, and that he stands ready
to meet any writer of any other
system in the world who has not
had more than twice the shorthand
experience of himself. Hon Jno
II Reagan of Jeff Davis’ Cabinet
says the Byrne Business Colleges
are rendering important and valua
ble service by the class of thorough
ly instructed and efficient students
they are turning out.
