RINKER-Near Mount Jackson, on the
1st of May, Mrs. Margaret Rinker, wife OF
Col. Levi Rinker, in the Doth year of her

Mrs. Rinker was in feeble health for some
years. Her suferings al times were very Sc
we're, yet not a murmuring word escaped her
lips. She bore her suiFerlngs with christian
resignation and meekness, knowing that they
were the chastisemens of her kind Heavenly
Father, and feeling assured, too, that her
hight Affections which were but for a mo-

In her death the church and her family, the
bereaved husband. and her devoted children,
have sustained an irreparabc loss. But We
have no reason to doubt that their loss is
her eternal gain. She is now, no doubt. en-
joying the rest of the people of God. She is
now, we trust, in the Paradise of God, where
sin. suiferings. sorrows and temptations, are
not feared and known, and where there are no
tears, no broken friendships, no severing OF
lender ties, and where there is no separation
from those whom we love. Her funeral was
attended by a large number of relatives
and sympathizing neighoors and friends.
The occasion was improved by the writer by
sermon based on Hebrews 4th Oh. 9th V.

Nifhnnt a Good Digest

All other temporal blessings are comparatively
worthless. The dyspeptic millionaire who has
tried all t. potons of the medical profession in
vain, and believes his complaint to be incurable,
would give halfh his fortune to be freed from the
horrors of ndi gestion, and thus enabled to enjoy
the other half. Of course he could.
Perhaps H0SrETTER'S STOMACH BIT
TIERS has been recommended to such sufferer.
Possibly he has turned from the friend who made
the suggestion with sheer, intimating that he
has 40 faith in any ''patent medicine" 1t this
has been the case. much the aoorse for him.
His incredulity dooms him to a life of misery. ALI
the Injuries which wealth purchase are at
his command. Not one o. them can give him
pleasure. His own irrational obstnacy is his
banc.
The masses, happily for themselves are less
skeptcal. There is such thing 6igoted
belief as well as bjgoted credutity, and golden
mean between the two, which men and women
who gifted with .comnon sense adopt and
profit by. These are the class that patronize and
recommend Iostetter's Stomach Bitters. Why
do they approve this famous anti-dyspeptic and
anti-bious preparation Simply because they
have nat been too much the slave of senseless pre-
judice to give it fair trial. ahd have found that
when AL other tonics, stimulants and all other
stomachics failed it produced the desired effect.
''Strike, but heaa," safe the Roman sage, when
his ignorant enemies were assailing him.
"Doubt, but try says the who has been
cured Of indigestio or bmliousness, intermit-
tent fever, by the Bitters, he relates his exper
fence OF the medicine to his invalid friends
Whoever is so welded to his own foregone the
perties of medicine endorsed by the testimony
of intelligent men in every walk of life, and APP
proved by the people at large, deserves to suffer.

honor of treasurng unsullied the memory of
those gallant heroes who followed the immor-
tai jackson through the arduous campaigns of
the Valley, and only yielded in their devotion
to the cause of the South when their spirits
took their flight to that realm where they may
forever enjoy the society of him whose orders
they were ever ready to obey. No. Let not
those graves be polluted by the dishonored and
the enslaved of the present day, but let them
be decorated by those whose bidding they SO
readily obeyed, and whose unsullied affections
So tenac:ously cling around the cause, which
was once so dear. Let them be enshrined in
her memory, and as year after year rolls
around may she place above their graves fresh
flowers as memento dedicated to those wor-
thy of the honor, for
