Schamber DEALERS IX At Mobile, Alalia ma, on the 22nd of March, 1007, the pure, sweet suirit of Miss Ethel winged its flight to rea nis Olesliul. She was attending school at Jackson, Alabama, and fell victim to the dread malady, LaUrippe. She patiently Hiid bravely struggled for life eight weeks, going to Mobile finally for special treatment. At last her delicate frame yielded to the grim monster. AH that is mortal of her now sWp in an elegant new-made vault in Womack Hill cemetery.

She was the second daughter of Mr. ami Mrs. F. F. Keener, of Wouiack Hill, Alabama.

Her parents uud one brother and sister survive. All knowing her can but siy that she was one of the most amiable, affable ami one of the most beautiful of characters. She came to her parents on the 14th day of February, 180Q, uud was born of 'the spirit October, after which she was bulled wuh Christ in baptism and united with Jackson Ihipiist church. In her last weary hours of watching and waiting, she said to her devoted loved ones: "I'm not afraid to go I'm ready." Thus the grace of Him who burst the bars of death robs the grave of its terrors. The grief-stricken family we com mend to Him who said: "My grace is snlhcient for you We would not call her back to us, but we would meet, her in the City, where there is 110 death, no night, nor tears.

Yes, Kthcl, we miss your musical A-oice In the midst 1 t' the "Woiuack Hill choir; Yet ill our sadness we can hut rejoice That you're now praising Hod up higher. In vain vc look for those charming brown eyes, Full of cheerfulness, sympathy and love. Though we shall sec them when this body dies, And Ave meet in our home above. Dedicated with prayer and affection to bereaved ones. M.

B. Good AVords for Cham berlatn's Cougli Itemed-. People everywhere take pleasure in testifying to the good qualities of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mrs. Edward Phillips, of Barclay, writes: "I wish to tell yon that I can recommend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

My little girl, Catherine, who is two years old, has been taking this remedy whenever she has had a cold since she was two months old. About a month ago I contracted a dreadful cold myself, but I took Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and was sooi. as well as ever. This remedy is for sale by all medicine dealers. GONE BUI' NOT FORGOTTEN.

On the 14th day of April, 1906, the death angel visited the home of rs. Mandy Todd and claimed her as his victim. She died very suddenly. She spent Sunday with her grand-son, and on her return home cooked supper aud was ready to clear the table when she was taken suddenly ill, breathing her la it at half after nine o'clock. She was 64 years old.

Her son was with her at the time of her death. He was a true and faithful son, but God saw fit to remove his mother from this vale of tears and leave her two little grand-daughters for him to care for. She leaves five children, two daugh-t 'is and three sons, to mourn their loss. Weep not, dear children, for we know that God knoweth best. Your darling mother has crossed over the river, where there is no more sorrow or care and where all is peace aud joy.

A precious one from us is gone A voice we loved is stilled A place is vacant in our home Which never can be filled. A Fkibni), Chainbei lai 's Colic, Cholera and I)i- arrlioea Itemed. There is probably no medicine made that is relied upon with more implicit ouIkIciic.c than Chamberlain olic, Cholera and Diarrheoa Remedy. Dur ing the third of a century in which it has been 111 use, people have learned that it is the one remedy that neve: fails. When reduced with water and sweetened it is pleasant to take.

For sale by all medicine dealers. If the boys of Butler intend to play any ball this season it is high time they organize the team and begin sys tematic practice.

E. A. Dannelly, preached two splendid and inspiring sermons. Only a few were nut to hear him Sat-, urduy morning, but his Sunday morn ing sermon was listened to by an tin usually large congregation with increasing interest, The conference proper convened Saturday afternoon al 1 o'clock, and after short religious service conducted by Bro, Dannelly, the roll wascalled and the usual business of the conference as taken up. The pastor gave concise report of the general state of the church and of his work for the quarter, showing the church to be in better condiiioo financially than spiritually, there existing much indinVi-ence and coldness throughout the charge relative to spiritual life.

One night when I was 111 severe pain and line fro 11 it my wife went, to the Irug store here and came back with a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm.

Washington County Xews. While grading on the Bowling Tim ber Company's log road, about three miles from St. Stephens, Elbert Hudson unearthed an old flint and stell musket, a dirk, pocket knife and about a peck of balls. 1 hese things were found about two feet under the surface of the ground. They are supposed to have been buried either by Indians, or pos sibly by a Boldier during the war be tween the states.

A piece of lead was also found and which was evidently a seal. It has some name on it, but all that is decipherable is the word "Wright. The seal end two of the balls are on exhibition at this office. Mrs. Rosa Goen and three children, of Dallas, Texas, are on a visit to the home of the former's mother, Mrs.
