V . * . rr M * « _ ^ h ■ In MemorUm.—Mrs. Sarah Cloy. , •That which thia woman hath dona shall ba spoken of as,a memorial Of her.’*—Mark 14: 8-9. HViends of Mrs. Cloy and family were saddened to learn of her death which occurred at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Ellen Hall, at Erwin- ton, on Saturday, Sept. 30th, in the 77th year of her age. She was laid to rest the following day at Swallow Savannah Cemetery by the side of her husband, the late Luther Cloy, who had several years previous preceded her to the realms of the unseen. j- Mrs. Cloy was a devout member of the Methodist Church and held her membership at Cave’s, wfyose pastor, the Rev. Mr. Sojourner, conducted the funeral services at the grave. The services were simple and unostenta tious, yet impressive, and indicative of the life that had gone to receive its reward. Mrs. Cloy had been in declining health for more than a year, but her untiring energy and indomitable will to keep going and to be always doing something for somebody no doubt gave her courage and fortitude to ov ercome, in a measure, the ravages of the fever which was slowly but surely making inroads upon a life that at last must yield to the inevitable. Although it was seen that she was growing more feeble and necessarily weaker as the days and weeks went by, still she was confined to her bed only five days before the final sum mons came. Only a few days prior to her last illness the writer saw her working away with her needle, trying to finish up some work that she was anxious to complete “before another chill comes on me,” she said, talking all the while pleasantly and entertain ingly about the people, times and e- venta of “old times,” in recalling which she took great delight > ___—. The next day a,/Severe chill, then high fever, set hi. from which she never rallied. Xll that loving,hands and medical skill could do availed nothing. God's finger touched her— the hour of her departure was at hand. Surrounded by her childreif and be loved physician. Dr. J. E. Warnock— Eiytrk, as she familiarly called Mm— who administered to her every need to the last moment, she fell quietly asleep and, at two o'clock, without a pain or a struggle, her soul returned to God who gave it. Her Life’s toils and labors were done, I la burdens were laid aside; A calm, sweet sleep was on her brow, Earth's cares no more betide. There is no death. An angel form Walks (Tver the earth with silent tread And bears our loved ones away. And then we call them—dead The writer had known the deceased for many years (and those who knew her best can think of her as a noble woman) and in thinking of the many acta of love and deeds of kindness characteristic of God's noblest gift to man, we hear the Master’s voice call ing: “She hath done what she could” —That which this woman hath done shall be spoken of as a memorial to her." The deceased was one of those types of Christian women known to us who are on the sunset side of life as one of those old time ladies—simpl- and un ostentatious in life, tender, kind and • loving in disposition, a servant to all who needed her assistance, with an untiring energy that knew no bounds— these noble characteristics won for her a host of friends and the high esteem in which she was held is^ evidenced by the large concourse of people w ho assembled at the cemetery to pay a last tribute to one who in life was a friend to everyone who knew her. Besides a host of friends and rela tives to mourn her loss she leaves two sons, Mr. Dixie Cloy, of Allendale, and Mr. Walter L. Cloy, of Erwinton, an'! one daughter, Mrs. Ellen L. Hall, of Erwinton. To these sorrowing | friends we offer our sincere sympathy, | with the comforting assurance of the > • Master that “There is no death; the twinkle of an eye * And we are clothed with immortali ty: % A moment, and from waiting, have we passed Into life’s inner chamber ,as a guest— Ourselve# the -same in all that was before, Save but the garments that our spirits wore. The good die not: this heritage they ’- r leave, - - — The reedrd T5f a life well spent. We know, at parting, though we grieve, ^ A noble life is one’s best monument.” Thomas R. Erwin. Allendale, S. C., Oct. 9, 1916. » Chain Gang Notice.

Fat persons, particularly those from 10 to 30 pounds above normal weight will be interested to learn that they may easily reduce their weight without starvation diet or tiresome exercise. This can best be done by being moderate in your diet, so that you will not overtax your assimilative organs, by getting plenty of fresh air, by breathing deeply and by taking tassco four times a day. Tassco may be obtained from any druggist in 5-grain tablets, take one after each meal and one before re tiring at night. They cost little, are absolutely harmless, are**pleasant to take and are designed to reduce fatty accumulations in the system where ver located. A few ,day^’ treatment should show a noticeable reduction in weight, the flesh should becdtne firm, the skin smooth and the general health impro ved, in fact your footsteps should even become lighter, your work seem eas ier and lighter and more bouyant feel ing take possession of your whole be ing. Every person who is 10 or 20 lbs. over normal weight should surely give this treatment a trial. You will probably find that it is just what you need. \ FOR SALE.—Rye.

It imbues him with confidence and the respect of his business associates.
