Persons who saff#r from indigestion cannot
expect to live long, because they cannon eat
the food rrquirsd to ooorish tbe body and tbe
products of the undigested food they do ea

digestion as soon aa posaible, aod the best
method of doing this Is to use a preparatioo

Tribute of Beapeot.
Tbt whole eoramnnity and Bethel Ghorch
especial y, ie sorely bereft in tbe death of Mrs.
J. Micbao.
She was bora Oct. 12th. 1848, and died
Jao. 3rd, 1901. Betweeo these two da es oas
li ted by bar a roost beaiitifal eed useful
Christies life.
Before ber allrriage she was Mise Martha J.
Andrews But io 1871 she was happily mar*
ried to Marioo J Micbau, with whom she
lived as a model wife for 30 years, sod uotil
death took ber from h m Her bosbaod,
three sons eod three daughters survive her
sod raoam ber loss, with o large circle of
relatives and friends. One daughter, Miss
Dora, preceded ber to tbe borne of ike blest
by only two mostos sod a fsw days.
As a member or Bethel Methodist Church ;
as presideot of tbo Woman's Forsign Mis*
liooary Society ; as teaeber ie tbe Sunday
School for 15 years ; as oos wbo was always
elsd to make personal sacrifice far others'
good, sbs bad no superior sod id all of these
she will be greatly miissed
Being happily converted io early girlhood,
and consecrating her life to tbe tsrvice of ber
Lord, her daily sodsavor was to reproduce
tbe life of ber divine Saviour io ber life
Ber success was so marked along thil line
that tbe universal testimony of those wbo
knew ber best, both white eod block, is tbat
tbs was cos of the best womeo io tbe world.
Ws bavs bseo io tbs community a little
more then s yesr sod we hsvs beard nothing
but ths highest praise of Bieter Miebsn by her
neighbors Oos isid : "If I bsd no other
evidence of tbe Cbristiso religion, tbe life of
Mrs. Micbao wsold suffice ; sod, if now I
wers tempted to try to doubt it, tbe parity,
devotion, snd consistency of her doily walk
would dissrm me."
Tbe Urge crowd which attended bsr fune?
ral, as on Jan. Bib. we laid ber body to rest
by Dora's lids in Bethel's beautiful cemetery,
stteit tbs high esteem io which sbs wss held
by all wbo kosw hsr Tbs falling tosrs of
tbois preseot show tbs bereaved fsmily tbe
depths sf sympathy or tbs community
The preseber sod his fsmily bove lost oos
of their best friends; ooe wbo was sver
amoog tbe first to prepare the parsonage for
tbeir reception aod to meet them and give
them a wsrm welcome. But now she is
recciviog tbe reword for sll ber labors of
