Thoughts Perued From the Funeral
Sermon of Mrs M. I. McCracken
of Myrtle Beach.
BY J II OKEEN.
One of tho most agreeable scr aes
observable upon this earth is a loving
peaceful and Christ.an family,
where truo friendship comes into
draw more closely the bonds nature,
where the individual resembles the
human body.' .
Where if one portion suffers, all
the other members suffer.
If one member be honored all the
T # 1. M WAM nn
members rejoice. n one IIJtJLUUOI UD .
all the members mutually syrapa- I
thizo.
Every care is divided, every sor-1
row is sharod equally and mostcheer I
fully, I
Each joy on discovery is rodoub-l
led by true fellowship and full communion.
I
Mutual confidence continually pre-1
vails. Consolation and succor are!
reciprocally tfiven and received.
To such a si^ht God himself often I
callr attention in his own Word,
Behold how ^ood and p asant a I
thip^/ it is for brethren to dwell to-1
gethor in unity (oaeness.) Such an I
effect is most fragrant, and as sacred
as Hea/enly ])erfume, a' as re-1
vivintf as a breath from Heaven. The)
un wise and unredeemed prize!
stekors of this world, are running!
after ^uilded baubles, but when
rW.mtviG tfems have soared j
above the reach of humanitie s snort i
arm, and fading ambition, with a|
heart broken cry,oh! so 3?"ily,let us go I
home. Let ail remember that true)
happiness is found in peace and!
quietness, never in noise. Happi-1
nets which is only another word fcrl
contentment, de{ snds more upon I
the cheap and common things of I
e^ery day life, than upon things sin I
guJar, far-fetched and strange. Hap I
piness is not an exotic imported I
from some strange and foreign land;!
but a plant which may be grown in I
our own fields or in our very door I
yard. The poor more often possess!
it than the rich, The servant morel
of ten has it than his master. The]
mechanic as often as his nobleman. I
It adorns the cottage as well as the
- palace; satisfaction increases with
^''Hnfluence or wealth; the brow of emi I
f&j&ence often clouds, and the heart)
f Jfeighs for a patter of feet of other)
:days that echoed from room to room
over carpetless floors. "Ah! happy)
vale, how much sorrow and anxiety)
I have sheltered thee from while hid )
ing in thee." "Better is a. dinner)
?* iK. than a stalled ox )
W [JHlt; Iiy.v ?,
where hatred is." "Better is a dry j
morsel and quietness therewith, I
than a house full of sacrifices!
and strife." Each individual!
should remember that he or she is
sent into this world to act his or her I
part faithfully, patiently, and well. I
This part is not, or cannot be finish I
ed until God closes our actions in
death. This part can be most beau-1
tifully, solomnly and perfectly car-1
ried out or finished, only in the marl
ried relation. Your part may he of
a public nature and splendid; mine I
more obscure and retiring. Yours!
to help bring a family intoexistence, I
mine to provide food, shelter and I
clothing for it. Yet another, to I
educate, christianize and fit for eter I
nity. Let all remember that this!
responsibility is grand, sublime, yetl
yea awful. Let dd father say before
his God, you have given me I
this family, I will provide all things
necessary for their health, comfort
and welfare, save their religious life I
and spiritual training that I will I
leave with my wife and the minister. I
This is treason, without heart, sense I
or reason. God is not a hard bull
a just and exact Master, no life or!
family is finished either in yourl
judgment or God's, who lives v. th I
out faith or repentance or Godly!
piety. God will surely call a halt I
in his own way and time, to all such!
people. If we neglect our duty in |
this respect, God will quickly put us!
into a new environment, whore He
can do the workHe demands through
other and more spiritual hands. He
?L~ ?**.iM (rfnw towards the "Fin
WUU HUUiu ^
ished," life let him take hie model
from Jesus, who clothed his ("vine
person with a common humanity in
order to bring himself near us and
yet not over awe us from him
through fear or superstition. His
f whole life was one unbroken series
v of unbroken goodness, usefulness
and charity, who in His complica-)
ted bounties never forgot to show
most clearly how man was composed
of both a soul and a body, and
He was near a finished product, until
both were fully developed. Note
the methods of procedure of work
by our most adorable Master, Je- '
sup, who after he taught the multitudes
of spiritual things first, then
he provided them with the physical
necessities of life. The devil and
men reverse this order and play
their cards with great skill saying
> <4I have no time for these things."
Jesus shouts down the ages in tones
of thunder, "Seek ye first the kingdom
of God, and his righteousness
and all these things shall be added."
He refused none for being ignorant,
Was impatient with none for being
ilttf J
s
a *low or dull, despised none who |
were scorned by the world, slighted
none or rejected them for being sin- <
ners, He knew Judas needed the sop
more than John, the beloved, and he .
readily gave it to him, He heard the
cry of all who others cautioned to
keep still. He healed sickness as
well as forgave sins. He gave bread
as cheerfully as the bread of Life,
that soul and body might share
eauallv in the "Finished Life."

SOLVE CORNER POST PROBLEM
Use of Heavy Stone or Concrete Poet
Will Be Practically Everlasting?
Method la 8hown.
An old method of sotting a firm corner
post, but one not known by everybody,
la the "dead man" way, which
is fully described and illustrated by
Carl Iirann, of Linn county, Kansas,
In the Homestead. The corner post is
sot and the brace extended to the bottom
of the second, post in the usual
way as shown in Fig. 1, "but the guy
wires from the top of the second post
pass on both sides of the brace and of
Fi&.t.
the corner post near the ground, and
being crossed back of the post pass
around a large stone or piece of durable
wood buried in the ground. These
wires are then twisted between the
posts to make them tight and hold
firmly in place about the brace and
corner poet. A corner so set cannot
pull up. However, as the best galvanized
wire will rust off In a few
years In the ground the life of such a
corner Is not so long as may bo desired.
Th? use of a heavy stone or
concrete post set In the same manner
without the "dead man" will be
practically everlasting, but In many
cases the cost of the stone or concrete

post, or some other consideration,
makes the plan Impracticable. The
following method (shown in Fig. 2)
has been successful where it was Impossible
to dig deeply. Three poste
were set at a distance of ten or twelve
feet apart. Then the brace and guy
wires were attached to the second and
third posts in the manner usually employed
between the corner and second
posts. A guy wire was run from the
top of the second post to the corner
post at the ground and a stout board
or 2x4 nailed to the upper ends of the
first and second posts. The wire of
the fence was then stretched to the
second post and wrapped around It.
Th*? flDflrn between that and the cor
ner post was closed with fencing
boards or wire, as was most conv*
nlent.
MAINTENANCE OF GOOD ROADS
Cannot Bo Kept In Proper Condition
Unlets Kept Well Drained and
Free From Holes.
No earth road can be maintained in
good condition unless It be so constructed
as to drain well, and unless
it be kept free from ruts and holes.
The best method of maintaining an
earth road, especially a prairie road
is by the systematic use of the road
drag. A sand road Is never good un 1
der any circumstances, but certainly '
is not improved by crowning. A sand
road is at its best when moist, so It
should be left flat. No one wants a '
sand road, so, If possible, clay should 1
be added to, and mixed with the sand, '
making what is known 48 a sand clay 1
road. 1
The old way, and It is used today by 1
many, of filling a mud hole with brush
with a little earth on top, cannot be
too strongly condemned, and Is only
permissible In cases of emergency, |
when It is impossible to drain the hole (
or to get sand or stone to All It. The {
overseer or foreman should in dry
weather center his work on such
places until tne roan is raised 10 a
sufficient height to drain well. Many
overseers have brush hauled two miles
to fill a mud hole, when sand la with*
In shoveling distance of it.
If farmers do not take tr community
Interest in the improvement of the
roads and put their shoulders to the
wheel we will surely remain "stuck
In the mud." .
