In Memory,
Os Mrs. Susie Davidson, wife of Mr.
R. J. Davidson and daughter of
Mr. and Mrs Peter Hense. God
in his alwise providence has called
from us a loved one and we are
made to feel sad, and are left sor
rowing until we are called to pass
over the river of death.
She was born August 1, 1858.
Although she suffered greatly from
ill health and frequent sickness,
she was a bright example of faith
and patience under continued af
fliction, and when at last the con
flict ended her sweet spirit took its
flight from this earthly home to
dwell in “a home not made with
hands, eternal in the heavens,” and
be with God who has been her
guide during life. She had the
spirit of her Savior, ever patient,
loving and kind. She was a noble
wife, a tender and loving mother
and a true child of God. She leaves
a father and mother and many
relatives to mourn her loss; but
we wculd say to them weep not,
but look by faith to the time when
all those who love the Lord shall
be gathered together at His right
hand in glory, and “be ye also read
y” for when the Lord calls how
important it is to be ready to go.
A precious one from us is gone
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be tilled.
God in his wisdom has recalled
The boon his love had given,
And though the body slumbers here.
The soul is safe in heaven.

There we found a large crowd
dancing. Spending a short time
there we then went to the falls
which was to us one of nature’s
grandest and most beautiful pieces
of work. The water falls about
100 feet from an overhanging cliff
of rocks, which forms a half circle,
and is beautifully arched by na
ture’s hand. The water when fall
ing looks white and beautiful but
after it leaves the falls it is very
black. From the falls we went to

there back to Gadsden, where we
saw Prof. Minor dive from the L.

be a distance of 100 feet.

SCIENTISTS SAVED. ’
President Barnaby and Prof. Bow
man of Hartsville College
Survive a Serious Illness Through the Aid of Dr.
Williams* Pink Pills for Pale People—These
Eminent Men Give an Unqualified Endorse
ment to this Valuable /Tedicine.
From the Republican, Columbia, /nil.
One of the oldest institutions of learning in
the West is the well-known Hartsville Col
lege, situated at Hartsville, Indiana. This
rollege was founded years ago in the interest
Os the United Brethren Church, when the
State was mostly a wilderness, and colleges
were scarce, not only in Indiana, but all
through the then almost unsettled central
West. Ths college being an old institution
is well k nown throughout the country,
former students having gone into all parts of
the world.
I
PBOF. ALVIN P. BARNA BV
A reporter recently made a trip to this
famous seat of learning, and was shown into
the room of the President, Prof. Alvin P
Barnaby. When last seen by the reporter
Prof. Barnaby was in very delicate health,
and much indisposed and hardly able to
attend to his duties. To-day he was looking
well and hearty, and was apparently in the
best of health. In response t<> mi inquiry the
professor said :
“Oh, yes, I am much better, I assure you,
than for some time. 1 am now in perfect
health, and very much encouraged uid then
my recovery was brought about in rather
u peculiar way, after all.’'
“Tell inc about, it," said the reporter.
“Well, to begin at the beginning,“ said
the professor, “I was about as stout a lad
for my age as any of the boys. 1 put in my
lime studiously- at school, endeavoring to
educate myself for the professions After
completing the common course I came here,
and graduated from ihe theological course.
I then entered the ministry, and accepted
the charge of a United Brethren Church at
it small place in Kent County, Mich Being
of an ambitions nature, 1 was a constant
student, and applied myself very diligently
lo my work and studies. In time I began to
notice that my health was failing, ami after
awhile it began to interfere with my duties.
My first trouble noticeable, was indigestion
of the stomach, and this with other troubles
also brought on nervousness.
“ 1 kept on with my studies and work,
until it was too plainly noticeable that 1
was fast going down. My physician, whom
I had consulted, prescribed for me for
some time, and he advised m« to take
a change of climate, as it was my only
remedy. I finally did as he requested
and my health was some -improved. Soon
after this I was offered a chair in the
Hartsville College and came here I was
professor in physics and chemistry and later
on was financial agent of the college The
change seemed to agree with me, and for
awhile my health was much better, but my
duties were heavy, and again 1 found that
my trouble was returning. This time it was
more severe than before In the winter
time I became completely prostrated, and
had to give up my position This was two
yeare ago last winter. I began treatment
from the first, trying various medicines and
different physicians, who were skilled in the
treatment of such diseases This trouble
was preceded, however, by an attack of the
Fip. Finally, after some considerable time,
was able to return to my duties Last

Triou, Ga. Simeon Palmour
spring I was elected president of the college.
Again, of course, 1 had considerable work
on my hands, ami the trouble, which at no
time had been entirely cured, began to again
affect me more than ever before, and last
fall I collapsed. For quite awhile I battled
with the trouble, but it seemed as if it was
bound to get the better of me. 1 had differ
ent doctors, and none of them did me any
good Professor Bowman, who is professor
of natural science, told me of his experience
with Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale
People and urged me' to give them a trial,
because they lead done him so much good in
a similar ease, I finally concluded to try
them.
' The first box of pills, to my astonish
ment, helped me, and the second box gave
me great relief, such as I had never experi
enced from the treatment of any physician.
After using some half dozen boxes of the
medicine 1 was entirely cured. I continued
the treatment with the result that to-day I
am perfectly well. I feel better and stronger
than for the last eight years, and weigh more
than I ever did iu my life and am steadily
gaming During my illness 1 fell off from
1.30 pounds to 118, but now I have more
than regained my former weight. 1 think
now that I tip the scales at about 150 pounds.
“ 1 am now doing as much work in the
college as before, and am doing considerable
studying and reading without the hast diffi
culty My nervous system is perfectly
strong, and I have no signs whatever of
indigestion.
“ I can most certainly recommend this medi
cine to any who suffer from like troubles.”
To allay all doubt to strangers as to the
truth of his story, Prof. Barnaby cheerfully
made an affidavit before
Lyman .1. Sci dder, Notary Public.
The reporter decided to interview I'rof.
Rowman in regard to his case, which bad
been mentioned by President Barnaby.
Prof Bowman, on being asked regarding
his illness and cure by Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills for Pule People, said that he was pleased
to any thut it was so, and was just as Presi*
dent Barnaby bad said.
Prof. Bowman is also a minister of th#
gospel, and for a number of years was pastor
of the United Brethren Church at Charlotte,
Mich., before coming to Hartsville llissick
ncss is best told in his own words.
"A year ago last fall, ” continued the pro
fessor, “ I broke down with nervous ex
haustion, and lor some time I was unable
to properly attend lo iny duties. I tried
different physicians hut with no relief, and
also used many different proprietary medi
cines I then succumbed lo a siege of the
prip in the middle of winter, ami was left
in a much worse condition. My kidneys
were fearfully disordered, and my digestion
became very poor 1 was indeed becoming
in a bad condition. A minister in conference
learning of my condition advised me to try
Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.
I had lunrd much about the wonderful
cnintive poweis of this medicine, but it waa
with reluctance that I was finally persuaded
to try it , as it seemed that nothing could do
me any good However, I procured three
boxes of pills. 1 used the entire three boxes
of pills, taking them strictly according to
directions, ami by the time the last dose
was used, I was almost completely cured,
and in better health than for years before.
I kept on taking them awhile longer, and
now I am entirely cured, with no signs,
whatever, of any returning trouble. 1 can
cheerfully recommend Dr Williams’ Pink
Pills for Pale People.”
Such was Professor Bowman’s wonderful
story which was further endorsed by an affi
davit before
Lyman .1. Scudder, Notary Public.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are
now given to the public as an unfailing blood
builder and nerve restorer, curing til) forms of
weakness arising from a watery condition of
