I I j v How To Cain Flesh Persons have been known to g&indi pound a day by taking an ounce of Scott's Emulsion. It is strange* but it often happens. Somehow the ounce produces the pound; it seems to start the digestive machinery going properly, so that the patient is able to digest and absorb his ordinary food which he could not do before, and that is the way the gain is made. o A certain amount of flesh is necessary for health; if you have not got it you can get it by taking SCOTT’S EMULSION Send this advertisement together with name of paper in which it appears, your address and four cents to cover postage, and we wit] send you a Complete Handy Atlas of the World.” SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl St. New York DEATH OF MR. H. L ACKERMAN. iftyraids of hearts were nad- dened with a cloud of sorrow when, on the 6th of February, news reached them that Mr II L Ackerman had paased over the beautiful river. He had been confined to his bed about nine weeks, and had all the medical aid that willing hands and loving hearts could ,give him; but it seemed that all that could be done could not restore him to his health; so he was taken to the Roper Hospital in Charleston, where he had all the attention that could possibly be given him: but it was not God’s will for him to live; so after being there nearly two weeks he passed away. Those with him when he d ied weie his wife, 0 K Ackerman, R A Ackerman, Mr and Mrs Charles Free, Mr and Mrs J () Ackerman, and Mrs E T Hiers. His tody was brought to hix home in Oottageville, where the funer al services w^re conducted by his pastor, the Rev luabiuet. His remains were interred in the Cot- tageville cemetery. Mr Ackerman was the sou of Mr Stephen O Ackerman, and he was married to Miss Amanda Willis November the 6th, 1874. He died at the age of fifty-nine years. He was a member of tl e Methodist church at Cottagcville where he was always ready to respond to every call for church work. He leaves a broken-lnarted wife, eleven children, (five bojs to a masquerade and and six girls,) and a host of sor- paity on the evening rowing relatives and friends. He was noble and generous, forgiving in spirit, amiable in life. It was indeed a mystery that God saw fit in His wisdom « to take him frem us; but death loves a shining mark, and so often the good, the true and the beautiful are taken first. As a friend he was strong and firm, as a husband, true and faithful, and as a father he was devoted . His peerless virtues, moral ex cellence and beautiful character, we should all strive to emulate. He did not leave one blot or stain upon his fair name or beautiful life. For him indeed to die was was but to begin to live. In timerof sorrow God is near, His vigils never cease, His tender loving voice I hear, “In Me ye shall have peace.” Tho’ long and weary is the night, And morn brings no relief, Yet faith the promise *till be lieves, “In Me ye shall have peace.” His love we may not understand, While trills here increase, But yet we know His word is sure, “In Me ye shall have peace. Soon shall our eyes the land be hold Where pain and care shall cease; Till then we’ll trust the promise sweet “In Me ye shall have peace. Ibbie Ackerman, Oottageville. i Soldier Balks Death Plot.
