Smith, of Monticello, Fla., 1 and a cherry tree concern sonaewhere in North Carolina. The two schemes are so nearly alike ! .. . as te suggest that both are oper- ' ated by the same pewon. The 1 scheme is this: An advertisement V appears offering nice, easy emc * * ploy meat to to ladies at $20 a ;I.. month.! When a reply comes the advertiser tells bow she has been working for Mr. Smith so many . i months and what a pleasant gent.emen he is, inviting her corre spondent to come in and share a g >od th'ng. The admission tee required is lo secure twenty-live subscriptions to a newspaper at one dollar each, for which a premium watch or bicycle is given. The new member is to write letters similar to the one she received, persuading others to work for Mr. Smith, for which she is to be paid $20 a month for one year. That's all. Now where does Mr. Smith come in? The proposition bears traud on the face ot it. For a wnile the salary promised may be |uid, but it is only a question ot time when the whole business must collapse, then those who are in? probably thousands?will suffer. n\, ? 1. - 1A ?fT .? iae man ? uu ?uum uuci iu give $240 and a watch for $25 would be put down at once as a Inualie or a swindler. A&d yet this is, in effect Mr. Smith's offer. We advise our readers to steer clear of him. Cades Chronicles. The poles have been put in place for the Cades-Kmgstree telephone line. Messrs. A. A.

C.,March 31,1873. At the age of 13 he joined the Methodist church, when he was no doubt converted, lor he told the writer he enjoyed that peace with God that i? accorded only to the righteous. When about grown a difficulty with one 01 ms cnarcn brethren caused him to drift away from God, his Savior. In 1896,110 came to Florida and engaged in the turpentine business. The writer iormed his acquaintance soon after he returned with his fair young bride, Miss Mattie Epps, of Epps, S. C., to whom he was married March 15, 1S99. I was a frequent and welcome gaest at his happy home, and I olten rewiaded him of bis unwisdom ia devoting bit lUention to money=ntaking instead nt the salvatioa of bis soil. He a would freely admit the truth ot my argument, but seemed to have the idea?a mistaken one? that he would have to give ud business to lead a Christian tifrw which gome day ho intended doing;. OtP Saturday morning* April 18^ J901, he had a di/Rcally with . farmer friend aWut a trivial busTnoss matter, and, gad to tall, the pitabie murderer sent a buflet through his heart. With this fearfol wound he Ihfcgorod until the next day about >. to. There were present at hit Heath bed his wife, two brother* asd two sisters, also hie wife's brother and sister, Mr. Joe and Miss Bettie Epps. Oh! the awful suffering af his loved ones. Words fail to express nay sympathy for them. When he realized that he was fatally injured he began to pray to God for the pardon of his sins and his faithful wife labored earnestly with hitn, pointing to the merit of Jesus Christ, and persuaded him to trust in bis Saviour. This he professed to do, to the /iAu?A)AtiAn f io iwifo in fko T gicrn. iviouiaiiuii v. uio ??..<? iu midst of her sorrow and desolation. ] He told his heart-broken wife that he wished te be buried in tbe j Williamsburg cemetery, at Kings- / tree, S. C., saying that lie was willing to die, his greatest sorrow being caused by the thought of = leaving her. He sent for me to j pray with him, bat when I arrived ' he was unconscious, Mr, Tilton ivas a tine specimen ef physical manhood?young, < strong and handsome. He leaves < a childless widow, an aged mother. 1 three sisters, four brothers and a , host of other relatives and friends. . I pray God that this visitation may move others to prepare them- r selves for the life beyond, and f that we all may be impressed ( with the importance of being free from sin through taith in -Jesus Christ. 4 May the writer and his readers ( meet in the holy city beyond, j where death shall never come again.
