Death OF Mr.. Oh as. Collier.

News has been received here of the death
of Mr.. Charles Collier at Selma, Alabama,
about FIVE weeks ago. Some years since
Mr.. Collier purchased the Watertown Gas
Wor KS and under bis superintendent the
works were renovated and our city given
an uninterrupted supply Of gas from that
time. He subsequently disposed of his IN
ierest in the FORKS and went south finally
settling permanently in Selma. We copy
the following particulars of his death from
The Selma (Alabama) Times:
It is our painful duty to chronicle the
death of Mr.. Charles Collier, which nm
timely event occurred at his residence at
o'clock yesterday morning. He attained
the ripe age OF SO years, IL months and Z
days. Mr.. Collier was born in England,
but cane to this country when quite q
Young man. He became citizen of Selma
about eight years ago. and was as thor
oughly identified with her interests as any
man in the city. He came here to take
charge of the Gas Works as Supe rintend-
ant, and as an evidence of his ability IS a
business man tnc pIesoul SPieuoio eouoi-
ton of the Gas Company amply testifies.
He was a man of enterprise and vim, and
his energy was boundless. His integrity
was unques.ioned, and he was as true 10
his promises and plighted faith as the
needle 10 the pole. He was sick for sew
eral weeks, and suffer ed un told agony, but
bore his suffering like philosopher. 10
his death our city loses one of her best and
most useful citizens, and his loss will be
universally regretted. his remains will
be sent TO Baltimore for interment.

oe Physicians, who certainly ought to be
the best judges of such matters, declare
that wholesale stimulation is not only de-
sirable bat essential in many instances.
When the temporary good effect of sound
stimuant is confirmed and rendered per
manent, as in the case of Hostetters Stom-
acn Bitters, by the action of tonic and al
tentative principles combined with it, it be-
comes infinitely more efficacious as emo
vent Of physical energy and corrective OF
those conditions of the body which invite
disease. The bitters have received the en-
phatic sanction of medical men who have
observed the effect OF that popular stimula
tive co dial as remedy for weakness. ner-
vousness, dyspepsia, constipation, inactlvi-
ty of the liver, malarous feyers. and many
other disorders. It's basis is SOUND old rye,
the purest liquor known to commerce, and
itself possessing tonic properties of no mean
order. ~ af 5Hsa3

Death Of Hon. Jonas FOIts.

Hon. Jonas Folts, of Hebron, in this
county, died very suddenly at his residence
on Friday night last, of apoplexy.
I'D We are without any of the particulars
rel ting to Mr.. Fclts decease. He camei'o
this state, we think, as early as 1885, but
did not take up his residence in this
county until about 1912. In 1916 he was
elected Register of Deeds of this county.
and was a member of the Constitutional
convention in 1s47-4s He was also
chosen to represent his district in the As
sembly of 1868
Though a lifelong Democrat, he was
never an active politician. He was an
honest tiller Of the soil in every sense of
the wcrd; and by his industry and frugal
ity be had accumulated a hands ONE pro-
perty, and won for himself not only the
love of his own family, but the high re-
spect Of the entire community. He leaves
a widow, aud, we believe, four daughters.
In his death his family loose a virtuous and

Men and Women.

Providence has so-made the sexes
that women, like children, cling to
men; lean upon them for protection,
care and love; look up to them as
though they were their superiors in
mind and body. They make them
the sun Of their system, and they
and their children revolve around
them. Women, therefore, who have
good minds and pure hearts, want
men to lean upon. Think of their
reverencing a drunkard, a fool, Z
liar, a libertine. If man would
have a woman do him homage, he
must be manly in every sense; a true
gentleman, not after the Chesterfield
school, but polite because his heart
is full Of kindness to all; one who
treats her with respect, even defer
ence, because she is q woman; he
never condescends to say silly things
to her, who brings her up to his lev
ell if his mind is above hers; who is
ambitious to make his mark in the
world, whether she encourages him
or not; and who is always pleasant
and considerate, but always keeps
his place as the man at the head,
and never losing it. Such deport
ment, with noble principles, good
mind, energy and industry, will WIN
any woman in the land who is worth
winning.

Sheep Raising in Tennessee
IChattanoooa Times ]

Chattanooga Times.
We are permitted to copy the fol-
lowing private letter from a well
known citizen of Cincinnati. 1t is
of interest to every man in Tennes-
see who has the interest of his State
at heart. We affirm that there is
no reason why Tennessee should
not advnace to a front rank in the
sisterhood of States. We hope to
live to see the day wien the taxable
wealth of Tennessee will be equal to
that of Ohio. Tennessee is an older
State than Ohio, and had forty
thousand population when Ohio was
bowling wilderness, and, in fact,
during the first three decades that
the census was taken Tennessee was
largely ahead. Now the taxable
wealth Of Ohio is seventeen hundred
millions Of dollars, a sum almost in
comprehensive in this latitude
Not a small item in bringing this
about are the sheep, of which there
are over six millions in Ohio.
We want six millions of sheep in
Tennessee. yearly bringing into the
the State ten millions of dollars in
cash and distributing it among the
people.
But here is the letter. 1t speaks
of Tennessee as well as we can do it..
Cincinnati, Dec, Is, 1875. Dear
Redfield-I have perused your let
ters on dogs and sheep, and it oc-
ours to me to suggest that you could
make a good letter, of interest to
our Northern sheep growers, espe
cially the boys on the Ohio sheep
farms who are looking for places to
open up sheep farms of their own.
by telling of the advantages of Ten
nessee, and adjacent States, as
sheep-growing districts.
The two winters I passed in Ten
nessee-one in East Tennessee,
above Knoxville, and one at Pulaski,
1 was greatly pleased with the com
forts of your winters-just cold
enough to be bracing and uot cold
enough to be uncomfortable.
Certainly Tennessee ought to be
one if not the sheep growing State
in the Union. The Cumberland
table lands should have tens of
thousands of sheep, and are able to
maintain them.
Some Of the sons of our old sheep
growers could be attacted TO your
State. think, if the advantages
were made known.
Yours very truly A.
