Lewis Thomas Fraser Dies Down
In Florida.
The following particulars of the
death of this 3'ouug man is taken
from the McClenny Standard of
March 6:
'thc subject of this sketch was born
in Marlboro couuty, S C., on tko 9th
day of December, 1872. and died in
Bilker county, Fla , at the home of j
his father-in-law, D. H. Rowe, on
February 27th 1903.
He wis converted and j tined tlie|
Methodist church about the year 1892;
but-as it is too often the CBBC-he
afterward wandered od' iuto tlie ways
of sin But n few day? bet?re he was
taken, while talking willi him, he said
to thc writer that bo had made up Iiis j
mind fully lo lead a different life, not
wi'hstaudiug he found it very hard lo.|
exercise tho necessary failli iu the
promise of God. While grappling
with the grim monster death, and in
his Inst agonies, he seemed to lose con
sciousness, yet only a short time before
while he was apparently perfectly con
scious, he talked very freely lo those |
attending him, seeming to loose sight]
of his sufferings while looking out iu
to the future, he was ablo to rejoice
that all was well with him. Andi
when asked if lhere was anything hoi
wanted, answered "No, nothing in I
Ll)is world;" lie only wanted to go and
bc willi the Lord and join the loved
ones in heaven. Ile gave frequent
expressions of praise, and asked that
we should tell his brothers and sisters I
who \^ere absent lo mee him in that |
home above.

" STAGECOACH DAYS.
- v - "
Story of ii Trip From Portsmouth to
London lu 1780,
There are men and women-and they
are not always tho old-who deplore
tho bren thiess paco of the ago. In
Btngecouch days, they tell us, Ufo wtos
a different thing. People journeyed
through the years leisurely then; ex
istence hud a davor. A century ago a
journey meant fellowship and merry
adventures and a comfortable enjoy
ment of the beauties of thc landscape.
All this may bo so, but a traveler"
who made the Journey from Ports
mouth to London lu 1780 shows that
even stagecoach days had their shad
ows.
"The getting up on the coach alone
was at tho'risk of ouo's life," ho wrote,
"and when I was up I had nothing to
hold on to except a little bundle ut the
side. The moment wc set off I thought
I saw certain death before me. The
machine rolled with tremendous rapid
ity over the stones and every minute
seemed to fly In the air, so that it ap
peared to mu a completo miracle that
we stuck to tho coach at ntl.
"This continual fear of death nt last
became insupportable to mo, and I
carefully crept along the top of the
coach aud ensconced myself in thc
basket behind.
"On a sudden the coach proceeded nt
a rapid rate down a hill. All tho boxes,
iron nailed und copper fastened, began
to dunce around me, and every moment
I received such violent blows that I
thought my lust hour had como. Shak
en to pieces, bleeding nnd sore, I crept
back to my former position. Aud lt
rained incessantly, and as before wo
.were covered with dust so now wo
.were soaked with rain.
"My neighbor every now and then
fell asleep aud when in this state per
petually rolled and jolted against me
with tho whole weight of his body,
more than once nearly poshing me
from the seat to which I clung with
the hist strength of despair. I looked
and certainly felt like a crazy fool
wheu I arrived in London."
-The letter is realistic. It ls possible
that twentieth century traveling, al
though unromantic, has its compensa
tions after all.-Youth's Companion.
POULTRY POINTERS.
When chickens grow very fast, it
sometimes causes leg weakness.
Under usual conditions a variety of
food is better than any medicino that
can be given.
Tlie only safo way of disposing of
dead fowls that have died of any con
tagious disease ls to burn them.
Clover contains two clements that
are in demand by tho hens-nitrogen
and lime. It ls rich in the elements
required for the whites of eggs.
Wheu roup gets into a flock, lt Inva
riably leaves some allmcut behind.
The fowl that has been subject to it is
seldom healthy again.
There is no cure for feather pulling
except by more labor aud time than an
ordinary flock ls worth. Tho best plan
ls to get rid of tlie guilty fowls ns soon
as possible.
A hen seldom begins to edt eggshells
until she fluds one broken or until she
becomes accustomed to eating eggs
thrown out into tho yard. The safest
plan is always to crumble them up flue
before feeding.
