"*The pupils of this place met last j
Monday and organized themselves '

iDg it was finally decided upon call- 1
ing it "Willing Workers1' society j
They elected the following officers :
Mr. Ward Leaphart, president ; Mr.
George Harman, vice president ;
Mr. Hoy Wessinger, secrStarj; Mr.
Alfred Rawl, critic; Mies Mary
Kaiser, door-keeper. The purpose
of this society is to better train its
members in writing essays, recitations,
debating etc , and we think if
carried out right will be a great help
to each and every member.
Mr. R. A. Barr is busy sawing
shingles for Mr. N. H Harman.

We were certainly sorry to lose our
good old friend.

studying music under the accomplished
teacher, Mrs. R A. Barr.
Mr. P. I Rawl also has two of his
sons UDder her tutorship.
fiow old is Ann ? For many
weeks past we have been iooking in
vain for a solution to this problem.
It seems like some of your effusive
correspondents would publish the
correct answer. Our teacher has a
solution, so has a patron of our
school, but would like to hear from
others first.
Ob, how strong those orange blossoms

these girls had a good time.
What's the matter girls ? Won't
tbe boys stay at home since Leap
Year began ? It seems as if marrying

wife, and I think he will do it just
as pleasantly as anybody. Nita.

In Mcmoriam.
Ann Eliza Gross was born December
28, 1844, and fell asleep in Jesus
December 14, 1903, aged 58 years,
11 months and 16 days. Dedicated
to God in infancy, by Holy Baptism,
she was duriDg ber life a faithful
member of Providence Evangelical
Lutheran cburcb, Lexington county,
S. C, of which congregation she was
a member at the time of her death
As a Christian her character was
radiaDt with the virtures ^bich
shone so beautifully and perfect!; in
the life of her divine Master. Sorrow
revealed tbe nobility of her nature as
night brings out the stars. Tbe
Reaper whose came is Death carried
to the heavenly garner in tbe bloom
of life tbe promising son and tbe
lovely daughter of tbe devoted
mother a few years prior to her
departure.
"And the mother gave in tears and
pain.
The flowers she most did love,
She knew she should find them both
again,
In the fields of light above."
The loss of her own children intensified
her interest in the children of
others so that many little hearts were
made glad by ber tender motherly
ministrations of love. Tbe bereaved
husband aDd the sorrowing relatives
who feel their loss so keenly may
rejoice in tbe Christian consolation
that they Bhall be transplanted one
by one to the bright fields of Paradise
by their heavenly Father's care.
The funeral services were cotducted
by Rev. J. G Graichen in Providence
Evangelical Lutheran church
in the presence cf a large and sorrowful
congregation. The sermon
was based on Rom. 8:38-39 .Interred
in the cemetery adjoining the church
she rests peacefully awaiting the
glorious resurrection of the
righteous. G.
Imperfect Digestion
Means less nutrition and in consequence
less vitality. When the liver
fails to secrete bile, the b!ood
becomes loaded with bilious properties,
the digestion becomes impaired
and the bowels constipated. Herbine
will rectify this; it gives tone to the
stomach, liver and kidneys, strenghens
the appetite, clears and improves
the complexion, infuses new life and

The Bright Side.
"After all," said the beautiful
American heiress, "I don't see why
we should feel bitter toward those
princesses who are eloping with
their music teachers and coachmen."
"Why, Alberta !" her friend exclaimed,
"How can you possibly
find any excuse for such conduct ?"
"Well, you know, every time one of
them runs away there's another title
put on the market."?Chicago Record.

Out of His Sight.
The chief was cross that morning,
and was venting his wrath on the
pretty young lady who manipulated
the typewriter, says Illustrated Bits
''Everything is in confusion on my
desk," he said testily. "It always is."
"You insist that you don't want
anjthiDg distuibed there," sb*
responded, meekly.
"Well, I don't want ray papers
disturbed: but I don't want this
sheet of postage stamps left there."
"Where shall I put them?" she
irquired demurely, as she took them
up.
"Don't ask so many questions," he
srapped. "Put them anywhere out
cf my eight."
"Very well sir, 6he cooed," as
lightly as a dove.
Aud licking them with her pretty
rpft tnncnip. she stuck the sheet on
n - J
hie bald head and walked out to seek
a new situation.
A Prisoner in Her Own Honse.
Mrs. W. H. Laybe, of 1001 Agnes
Ave , Kansas City, Mo., has for several
years been troubled with severe
hoarseness and at times a hard cough
which she say?, "Would keep me in
doors for days. I was prescribed for
by physicians with no noticeable
reeu'ts. A friend gave me part of a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy with instructions to closely
follow the directions and I wish to
state that after the first day 1 could
notice a decided chaDge for the better,
and at this time after using it for
two weeks, have .no hesitation in
saying I realize that I am entirely
cured." This remedy is for sale by

A Large Fish.
An Englishman visiting LakeTatioe
! asked a native if there was any good
! fishing in the lake. "Ob,
yes, stranger."
14What kind of fish do you catch
here?"
"Ob, all kinds, stranger."
"What is the weight of the largest
fish you ever caught?"
"Weal, stranger, we don't take
weighing machines when we go fishing,
and I am an honest man and
wouldn't like to say how much that
last trout I caught would weigh.
But I tell you, stranger, that when I
pulled that fish out of the water the
lake went down a foot."
In Bed Four "Weeks With
La Grippe.
We have received the following
letter from Mr. Boy Kemp, of Angola,
Iod. "I was in bed four weeks, with
j
la grippe and I tried many remedies
and spent considerble for treatment
with physic aas, but I received no
relief until I tried Foley's Honey and
Tar. Two email bottles ol tbis medicine
cured me and now I use it
exclusively in my family" Take no

The Vote Was a Failure.
Tbe worthy Sunday school superintendent
was illustrating the text,
"Whatsoever a man soweth that shall
he also reap!"
Superintendent?If I want to |
raise a crop of turnips what scrt of
seed must I sow ?
Children?Turnip seed.
Superintendent?If I want to raise
a crop of tomatoes what kind of seed
must I sow ?
Children?Tomato seed.
Superintendent?Verygocd. Now, j
if you want to raise a crop of good
manhood what kind of seed must
! you sow .
An observer who kept tally reported
that the school on test vote J
was a tie between turnip seed and
tomato seed.
Domestic Troubles.
It is exceptional to tind a family
where there are no domestic ruptures
occasionally, but these can be lessened
by having Dr. KiDg's New Life
Pills around. Much trouble they
save by their great work in Stomach
and Liver troubles. 25c. at The
