THE RELIABLE JEWELERS To the Memory of Grandn d * Grandma. * * * * * * * S S e * * 5 * S S There are two newly made mounds in Chestnut Ridge cemetery in which lie the remains of )r. John Stevens Wolff and his lifelong comrade, Mrs. Eliazbeth Iludgens Wolff. Grandpa went to that home that was prepared for him on the morn of Sept. 18, 1915, and nearly three months latqr, Dec. 15th, 1915, Grandma went to be with him. Grandpa was 89 years old and grand ma was 79 years old. She was 10 years younger. Grandpa and Grandlma have been married for 58 years which is about the average life of the human race today. They were the parents of 14 children. Two of them died in their infancy. Six sons and six daughters reached their manhood and woman hood But one of the daughters have crossed over the river a'nd is resting under the shade of the trees with her Master, whom she trusted in. Grand pa and Grandma have .18 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. Grandpa was a member of Shiloh Methodist church of which he helped to establish. Ie was a man that took great pride lin serving his Master. Grandma was a a member of Chestnut Ridge Baptist church of which she was a good and faithful worker. Grandpa and Grand ma .were ever ready to hell) any one in any way that they could. They lived a long tiie at their old11 home place mear Shiloh commonly known as I"va. ''i'is a sad sight. to look upon the old home w here they spent so many happy hours together and to thinuk that theirI footsteps will never be heard again oil the earth where tihey once trod. (Grandma always tiled to comfort all that she saw in Sorrow or bereavement. Grandpa has rode over this (o'01ntry practiing medicin e more than any other man living today. iIe rode his faithful horse llora. lie did a great deal of charity practice. We have entered their home at Laurens and found them reading the family Bible and colmuning with the only true God together. They were perfect ly ready to answer the roll call. They sai(l that they were ready an( willing to (ie and go to dwell with their Lord and Master, Jesus Christ. in whom they put all of their trust. What a happy thought it is to think of the two life-long comrades crossing over the river togetlher arid dwelling in that city that was built not by man hut by God Almighty. If everybody were pre pared like they 'wee, there wol(1 be no such 11iung as a lll. It is mu(h hel(tr to be prepared to go home when you a1r11 ,led than it Is to lie iiinpre lared.

Don't Suffer---Laugh At Stomach Misery It is anl unusual thing for a driggist to sell medicine under a guarantee to r1efulnd the Iloney if it does not cure. Yet this is the way the 1iaurens Drug Co., the popular druggists are selling Mi-o-na, the stan(lard lyspepsia rem edy. Never before have they had so large a number of customers tell them that a medicine has been successful as with Mi-o-na. People who a few months ago looked like walking skeletons have put on flesh and today are ruddy and vigorous with perfect digestion and good health. There is no longer any need for anyone suffering or making their friends suffer on account of (lyspepsia. .\li-o-na can always be relied upon. Tihe percentage, Of cures is so great that there is little risk to the Latiu rens Drgu 96. in guaranteeing to re turn the money if the medicine does not relieve. And they stand ready to (to so without any questions. Headaches, all forms of in(iigestion. specks before the eyes, (izzy feelings, and all forms of liver' trouble are helped by Mi-o-na. A fe w days' treatment should show considerable gain in health while a complete cure often follows rapidly.
