Notice to Old Soldiers.
Tho last Genoral Assembly passed an
Act removing the age limit of thoso
otherwise entitled to receive aid from
tho State. Capt. John M. Hudgens,
County Pension Commissioner, has re
ceived new blank appllcatipus to be
tilled by those desiring pensions and not
now on the pension roll. He can be
found in the County Auditor's olllce
eaoh Saturday, In January, 1904, for
tbo purpos9 of tilling Pension Blanks.
Pensioners reed not apply excepting
those who desire to be raised to an
othor class above thoouo in which thoy
are now enrolled.
Township representatives are re
quested to make a list of Pensioners in
their Townships who have died or re
moved from the County or State this
year, and bring same before Tho
County Pension Board, which meets
first Monday in February, 1904.
The Pension Act has been changed
which admits many new applications
and all wishing aid wou'd do well to
seo Capt. Hudgens acd get full Infor
mation.
W. P. Cokkr,
Chairman County Pension Board.
Family DlMsenntonn.
Dissension In families often arises
from a lack of imitunl consideration
among tlio members of the family. The
"soft answer thnt tnrneth away wrath"
Is forgotten for the hasty reply,-the un
kind retort, that kindle the fire of 111
feeling. J.ove does not llngor In the
home where rudeness shows Its unlove
ly qualities. It chooses to dwell in the
home where the spirit of unselfishness,
of self control, of thoughtfuhiess and
of # charitableness makes the atmos
phere sweet. The woman who Is quick
to take offense Is not like her of whom
Holy Scripture says. "Her ways ore
ways of pleasantness, and all her paths
are peace." Happy homes depend on
happy hearts. Home Is distinctively a
woman's sphere, and she who sweetens
It most makes earth nearer heaven.
