It is the sacred doty imposed upon
the living by all of the demands of
humanity to tenderly and lovingly
care for the "silent city" wherein
dwells some loved one who, by the
unerring wisdom of the great archi
tect and builder of the fail casket
which contains for a season only the
breath of God?the immortal spirit of
man ?which has been called through
the medium of physical decay to enter
into the valley and* the shadow of
death. A well cared for village cemetery
speaks in glowing evidence of
the holy reverence which the citizens
of that village hold in rememberance
of their dead. A neglected cemetery
- left unenclosed for the beast of the
held, the feet of the unthoughtful
or indifferent stranger to trample
upon and dispoil the hallowed mound
beneath which somebody's; cherished
one lay sleeping, is to say the least
of it, a refection upon the entire community
where such a condition is
permitted to exist. The public spirited
citizens of this place determined
to replace the old dilapidated wooden
fence which is around St.Stephen cemetery
with a neat aud substantial

ceeded in raising all the fnnds neces- |

fence except .$150, and they now appeal
to the patriotism and pride of
aU those who have loved ones sleep|
ing in that sacred spot to contribute
a ana, not matter how large or small,
? toward this necessary undertaking, j
There is scarcely a family in this vi
{ cinity but a loved member is buried
there: and there are families who
have moved away who have left the
||v tacred ashes of one or more members
awaiting the resurrection morn
in Si Stephen's cemetery and to
these, to many of whose homes in dib~

f. would earnestly appeal for a contribution
toward raising this $150. All

A Christian Falls to Sloop.
We are saddened to obronicle the
"
death of Mrs. Lucile M&ttison, which
event occurred at the home of her
father, Captain Henry A. Spann, near
Leesville, last Saturday, after a
long illness, which was attended by
great suffering, all of which she bore
ir^th a patience that was remarkable
and a resignation that was sublime.
She was married some years ago to
Eev. Mr. Mattison, a devoted and
consecrated embassador of Christ
and an eminent Methodist divine. After
her marriage she and her busband
went as missionaries to Brazil.
Shortly after their arrival there the
husband contracted a case of fever
wbkh terminated fatally. Mrs. Mattf#
son returned to her home and commenced
the preparation to engage in

Mrs. Mattison was a resident of
tb? place for a number of years and
was highly esteemed by a large circle
of loving friends for her many
Christian graces, her sweet and gentle
disposition and her accomplishment
and culture of heart and mind. Her
only daughter, Miss Lina Wakefield,
and other relatives survive her to sorrow
over her departure. Our deepest
sympathies go out to the stricken
and saddened home.

Rev. Xrl R. Hicks' 1903
Almanac.
To say that this splendid work of
science and art is finer and better
than ever, is stating it mildly. The
demand for it is far beyond all previous
years. To say that such results,
reaching through Thirty Years,
are not based upon sound sense and
usefulness, is an insult to the intelligence
of the millions. Prof. Hicks,
through this great Almanac, and his
famous family and scientific journal,
Word and Works, is doing a work for
the whole people not approached by
any other man or publication. A fair
test will prove this to any reasonable
person.
Artdpd the most luminous course
in astronomy for 1903, forecasts of
storms and weather are given, as
never before, for every day in the
year, all charmingly illustrated with
nearly two hundred engravings. The
price of a single AlmaDac, including
'postage and mailing, is thirty cants.
Word and Works with the Almanac
is $1 00 a year. Write to Word and
Works Publishing Co., 2201 Locust
Street, St. Louis, Mo, and prove to
yourself their great value.

Mr. Pickens Wessinger, of Peters,
has placed his son, Talmage, in the
Institute.
Mr. William Martin, Columbia, S.
C, is boarding his son, Cleveland, at
Mr. J. D. Taylor's and sending him
to the Institute.
There are so many students in the
Institute that another teacher had to
be employed. Miss Mary Henry, of
Countsville, who graduated with first
honor from this same school year
before last, was chosen. Miss Henry
is a fine scholar and a teacher of
successful experience.
The entire enrolment of all departments
of the Institute is 190.
There are five teachers in charge and
everything is moving along prosperously.
The music department of the Institute
is in a more prosperous condition
now than ever before. It is in
charge of Mrs. Fannie Roof, who
nmea r.f a talented familv of musi
cians and who has a very successful
experience covering more than eighteen
years. Below will be found the
names of the music pupils:

Catarrh has already become a national
curse. Its ravages extend from ocean
to ocean.
More than one-half the people are
affected by it. It has become such a
serious matter that it has passed the
boundaries of the medical profession
and become a national question. Senators
are talking about It; Congressmen
are discussing it.
They are not only considering the extent
and chronic nature of the disease,
but the possibility of finding a national
remedy to meet this national calamity.
The catarrh remedy, Peruna, seems to
be the main expectation in this direc
tion.
Dr. Hartman, President of The Hartman
Sanitarium, devised the remedy,
Peruna, over forty years ago, and the
remedy as a catarrh cure has been growing
in favor steadily all these years. .
