The house is beautifully painted with pretty windows, walls mm for dishes that can be thrown away after eveiy meal, to avoid the tiresome task of dish-washing, cannot be granted.

Though the A 11 Wise God saw fit to take from this earth Miss Cora May High. she is not to be forgotten by her many friends. Her walk in life was such that to know her was to love her. She was gen erous, true and kind hearted, ever ready to Help tne needy and distressed, dutiful and obedient to her parents, and faithful to her covenant with God. Thouch Miss May was sick only a short time she suf fered much but bore itpatiently, and ever remembered she was leaning on an ever lasting arm.

She leaves many friends and relatives to mourn her loss. But the oneconsoling thought for them is, shehad fought a good fight, bad finished her course and had kept the faith, and was ready to enter into rest.

TI11 Ihi Yea Haia Ahrajs BcrgM Bears the Signature of Unveiling of Confederate Monument at Jackson ville.Fla Confederate and Federal Veterans and Federal Troops from the North and the South. Join In the Exercises. Jacksonville, June 16. The unveiling of the 120,000 Confederate monument today marked one of the most patriotic incidents in our national annals. Indeed, it was sur rounded by so many peculiar cirenm- ll m.

it! 1 A. stances tnat notning in mis country has ever equaled it. It becomes a chapter in history strange in coinci dence and remarkable in surround ings. Eighteen years ago on the piazza of one the hotels of this city sat a soldier ex-president, while the citizens of Jacksonville passed and re passed, marking the presence of a statesman who had made the laurels of a victor unfading forever by pap-claiming over a sea of bitterness: "Let us have peace. To-day his grand son as a member of the staff of General Lee, stood within a few feet of the same spot reviewing an army of soldiers in blue, veterans who had opposed each other on the battlefields, and thousands of Floridians marching to do honor to a Confederate soldier in bronze, who viewed with the cold stoney eyes of the past, a living chapter of our current history.

A regimental band from the land of the old Yankees stepped proudly to the-strains of a march and Old Glory waved in the southern breeze. The new Yankees from North Carolina and Virginia, clad in blue too. took up the echoes with the spirit- stirring strain of "Dixie." Behind them trooped the old Federal veterans, and then came the old Confeder ates under the. stars and bars floating besides tho stars and stripes peace ful; all the men over whom the banners floated grim but quiet, with eyes looking to the future and not to the past. 1 A Federal army in Jacksonville marched amid the plaudits of the people of an extreme Southern state past tne reviewing sianu occupieu by a Lee and a Grant, under the eyes of a Harrison, whose father was a Federal general and a Republican president, and Of a nephew of the vice president to unveil a monument dedicated by ex-Confederates to the Confederate, who is dead except on the pages of history.

Victory will perch on our banners in the war with Spain, but not even the victory of Manila or a victory on land as decisive, could promise more for our future than the peaceful exercises that Southern sun smiled upon in Jacksonville today. Through the streets of a Southern city tramped an army in blue, led by Lee, in whose name and fame is concentrated Southern history 1 from the bes-innine-. and at the foot of a pedestal that lifts up the typical Southern soldier to the reverence of the age stood a Sartoris, who is Grant to us now. and a Harrison at home with the people from whom his ancestors sprang. The South and the West and the North marched through the streets the boys in blue from Illinois, New Jersey, Iowa, Wisconsin, Virginia and North Caro lina, brothers all save as they are rivals for the first place in the charge and the last in retreat when they face the enemies of their native land.

On the other hand the flag of a reunited country floated in the semi- tropical sun. Veterans of both the blue and the gray remarked on every side that it was their hearts' delight to witness at last such a sierht. It was a great lesson to the nation, an event that must become historic. A good appetite Is essential to good health.
