Ftfty Years a Blacksmith.
Samuel R. Worley, of Hixburg.Va.,
has been shoeing horses for more
than fifty years. He says: "Cham
berlain's Pain Balm has given me
great relief from lame back and rheu
matism. It Is the best liniment I
ever used." For sale by J. W. Bell,

Heath of Miss Talley.
Miss Sallie Talley, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. J. L. Talley, died at their
home, near Little River, Monday, Oc
tober 12, 1908, after suffering with
tonsilitis for some time. Hopes of
her recovery were entertained until
near the end, but her death was not
wholly unexpected.
She was a bright and beautiful
ryoung woman, and was loved by all
who know her. Being a devoted
Christian and a very consistent mem
ber of Whltmire Methodist church,
In her death the bereaved ones have
a comfort which this world ls not
able to give, and which is not found
in the departure of overy one. But
more than this, assurances of her
salvation and eternal happiness came
from her own lips, comforting the
sorrowing hearts of those left be
nind.
Her remains were interred In the
cemetery at Whltmire on Tuesday
afternoon, her pastor, Rev. Rhett R.
Doyle, conducting the funeral ser
vices.
She is survived hy her parents,
several brothers and sisters and a
large circle of friends, who mourn
her death.
Quarterly Conference.
The fourth quarterly conference
of the Walhalla Mission, Methodist
church, held recently at Zion, was,
perhaps the most successful one
held during the year in many re
spects. The presiding elder, Rev. A
J. Cautohn, preached two well-pre
pared sermons and presided over the
business session with grace and dig
nity. He has had the love and con
fidence of the official hoard of this
charge from the first of the year.
He Is doubtless the most popular pre
siding elder we have had here for
some time, and his return to the An
derson District is very much desired
by all concerned.
The general state of the charge
was reported by tho pastor, Rev.
Rhett Doyle, to be very good and
somewhat encouraging, while the
financial reports were excellent
even better than was reasonably ex
pected. /
The following officers will have
charge of affairs next year:

The Courier for a year.? I had been,
subscribing to lt in Fort Worth with

I have not seen the papjr and I miss

noticed In any paper I have seen
since I left home.
