I saw one man standing on top of the structure driv-‘ ing a spike, not holding to any thing. | One day last week a man fell from this place to instant death. Another man was standing on the ground and the pulley on the crane fell an his head and kilied him. I saw three men drawn to the top of the building on the crane pulley. There will be a passageway | from the Post Office to the Station that they will carry the mail through from the Station to the Post Office. I have told you all I have seen down at the Post Office now I will tell you about the Senate Office Building where all the Senators have their offices. They have a man to sit at a desk and tell the visitors where the Senators Offices are. They have brass elevators and the Senators ring three times and when they ring times the elevator man has to stop where he is and go back for the Senator and take him where he is going. Then they have a subway from the Senate Office Building to the Capitol, and from the Capitol to the House Office Building, which is just like the Senate Office Building. The hall in the left side of the Capito is called the Senate wing, and the other side is the House wing. The Senators meet in the Senate wing and the Con gress men meet in the House wing, and in the middle the Supreme Court meets. They have a Dome in the Capitol that one can go up in and look at the city. It is not quite as high as the Washing ton Monument, but you can see all the ity from the top. Justunder the dome 1s the rotunda with large paintings such ‘as the Discovery of the Mississipi and ‘other great paintings; on a little further s the Statuary hall where they have life size statutes of the great men of the Country such as Washington, Jeff erson, Webster and Lee. Frances Willard is the only woman in the hall. ; I will have to close for this time as it is a pretty day and I am going to take a walk. COBB COUNTY BOY. OBITUARY. : Little Alice, the 11 year old daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. H. 8. Arrington, of Smyrna, quietly passed from this life to her reward on the 18th instant This beautiful little girl was just recovering from a prolonged spell of‘ sickness when she was suddenly tak-: en with a very severe illness that‘ soon ended in her untimely demise. The real nature of the disease that resulted in her. death puzzled her friends and placed some uncertainty in the minds of the physicians who attended her. Alice was the only daughter of ‘Mr. and Mrs. Arrington who have a ‘host of friends and relatives living ;at Kennesaw. She was a lovable little girl and was often the subject of icomplimentary remarks by reason of ‘her sweet and womanly disposition. What seems to be a loss to her dear ones here is only a gain to those sweet angels who welcome her to that larger and better life where pain and sorrcw are unknown. Her remains were taken to Ken nesaw and there laid to rest with others who have gone before. The good people of Smyrna joined the good people of Kennesaw in many deeds of kindness in token of the love and esteem which they hold the family whose loss is most sorely felt. A FRIEND.

Black Lumber Company MARIETTA G 4 Friday, January 31, 1913 LIFE’S STRUGGLE Mrs. Stewart Tells How She Suffered from 16t045 years old—How Finally Cured. Euphemia, Ohio.—‘“ Because of total ignorance of how to care for myself when verging into womanhood, and from taking cold when going to school, I suf fered from a displacement, and each month I had severe pains and nausea which always meant a lay-off from work for two to four days from the time I was 16 years old. . “Iwent to Kansas to live with my sis ter and while there a doctor told me of the Pinkham remedies but I did not use them then as my faith in patent medi ¢ines was limited. After my sister died I came home to Ohio to live and that has been my home for the last 18 years. “The Change of Life came when I was 47 years old and about this time I saw my physical condition plainly described in one of your advertisements. Thenl began using Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg etable Compound and I cannot tell you or any one the relief it gave me in the first three months. It put me right where I need not lay off every month and during the last 18 years I have not paid out two dollars to a doctor,and have been blest with excellent health forawo woman of my age and I can thank Lydia ' E.Pinkham’sVegetable Compound forit. . “Since the Change of Life is over I } have been a maternity nurse and being - wholly self-supporting 1 cannot over l estimate the value of good health. I have now earned a comfortable little ‘ home just by sewing and nursing since ' 1 was 52 years old. T have recommended the Compound to many with good re sults, as it is excellent to take before - and after childbirth.”’—Miss EVELYN ADELIA STEWART, Euphemia, Ohio.
