STATE BOARD OF HEALTH
OFFICIALS TALK OF LAZY BUG
Atlanta, Ga.—"Jbhn D. Rockefel
ler's munlficient gift of $1,000,000
will go far toward eradecatlng the
hook worm from the south,” said an
official of the state board of health.
"We have no idea, at course, how’
much of this fund will be used in
Georgia." he continued, "but we hope
a good share of it, as the disease
is undoubtedly prevalent to a large
extent in Georgia. Altogether we
have examined and treated some 500
cases within the past several months.
"Practically in every case we have
conquered the insiduous Intestinal
hair like worm. This disease is
more prevalent in sandy country
than elsewhere, and is, therefore, to
be found to a greater extent in south
Georgia than in the northern section,
nithough we have treated cases from
upper Georgia.
"Thymol is the deadly foe of the
hook worm, and a very small amount
of ft will cure the most obstinate
cases. Mr. Rockefeller's gift will go
far toward starting a general cam
paign through the south that will
practically demonstrate that it can
be easily cured, and in a general
campaign of education the people will
be taught how to treat and prevent
the disease.
"While the hook worm is found
more generally among the poorer
classes, and to a considerable extent
among mill operatives, it is by no
means confined to them. It is often
found’ among people of wealth and
culture. It leaves its victim pale and
anemic, giving rise perhaps to what
is often called the "lazy disease."

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
Whereas, God has seen fit in His
all mighty power and wisdom to send
the death angel to visit the home of
Mr. H. Turner, pear Lyerly, and
pluck from our midst his son, Joel.
He was born at Jamestown, Ala.,
March 3, 1889, age 20 years, and de
parted this life October 11, 1909.
I He professed religion about three
months past. He left a father, moth
er, four brothers and five sisters to
mourn his death. We have the
greatest heartfelt sympathy for the
bereaved family who are left to
mourn the loss of one they loved
and cherished so much. May God
be their keeper to draw them closer
to Him in their daily walk, that they
may be prepared to meet Him on the
golden shore where no more partings,
pains or sighs can ever come. We
realize and know in our heart that
it grieves us very much to part with
those we love so much, but just
think it was the Heavenly Father’s
, will. We all know that God knows
| best. Just think he is in such a
‘ lovely world free from all his suffer
' ings, pains and sighs, rejoicing with
the Heavenly angels of God in the
' sweet paradise above. We can only
say, father, mother, brother and sis
ter, walk in the straight and narrow
way and be prepared to meet Joel
at the pearly gates.
A loving one from us has gone
To take his heavenly flight,
The cord of life has snapped
And drawn thee from our sight.
Thou hast borne him on snowy
wings
To live with Christ through end
less years.
‘Tis hard to break the tender cord
When love has bound the heart,
It is hard, so hard to speak the
word,
We must forever part.
Dearest loved one we must lay
thee
In the peaceful grave“s embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished
' Till we see thy heavenly face.
Oh. the hearts keen anguish. Only
those can tell who have bidden the
■ dearest and best loved one farewell.
Farewell, dear Joe, till we meet be
• fore the great white throne of God
j above and cast our crow ns at Jesus'
feet and sing the triumphs of His
j love.

MEET MOTHER IN THE SKIES
(Published by Request)
In a lonely graveyard, many miles
away,
Lies your dear old mother ’neath the
cold, cold clay.
Mem’ries of returning, of her and
sighs
If your love your mother, meet her in
the skies.
Chorus:
Listen to her pleadings, Wand’ring
child come home,
Lovingly entreating, do not longer
roam.
Let your mandhood waken, heaven
ward lift your eyes,
If you love your mother, meet her in
the skies.
Now t the old home vacant has no
charm for you—
One dear from us is absent, mother
kind and true.
Evermore she dwells where pleasure
never dies,
I you love your mother, meet her in
the skies.
Now in true repentance to the Savior
flee —
He who pardoned mother, mercy have
for thee.
Now t ho waits to comfort, he will not
despise,
If you love your mothr meet her in
teh skies.
THE BLIND CHILD.
“They tell me, papa, that to-night,
You wed another bride,
That you will clasp her in your arms,
Where my mother died.
“They say her name is Mary, too,
The name my mother bore.
O father, is she kind and true,
Like the one you loved before?
“And is her step as soft and low?
Her voice sw’eet and mild?
O father, will she love me, too,
Your blind and helpness child?
'O, papa, do not bid me come
To meet your new-made bride;
I can not meet her in the room
Where my dear mother died.
They say her picture’s on the wall,
Her work is lying near,
And there’s the book she often read.
And there’s her vacant chair.
“I love you. papa, but I long
For that bright world so fair.
Where God is love, for I am sure
Tnere’ll be no blind ones there.
"Now let me kneel down by your side
And say an angel's prayer,
That God may lead you and your
bride
Through life’s long, weary way."
Her prayer was answered in a song.
“I’m weary now,” she said.
He turned and caught her in his arm;
And laid her on the bed.
And as he turned to leave the room
A joyful cry was given;
He turned and caught her in his arms
smile,
And the blind child was in heaven.
They buried her by mother’s side
And on it were the sweetest w’ords, —
“There’ll be no blind ones there!" *

he will lend a pullet to anyone who
can’t afford to subscribe for the hom«
paper. “Feed the chicken the table
scraps and bring me her eggs to
pay for the paper," he says. “When
she stops laying bring her in and
I will make a potpie of her and fur
