poor, the breaks containing many odds and

all grades, and Jugs appear rather fuller in
price. Poor Tobaccos appear low in price to
the sellers but they are doing better here at
present than in other markets. We quote

Can death be natural when we so much
rebel against it, This eternal conflict only
shows death an enemy, but thanks be to God
an enemy to be conquered. How precious
are Gods promises when this foe meets us
But death Is ours if we are Christ's. Little
Walter Worth Glenn, son G. L. and Mol
lie Glenn, of Brownsville, Tenn, he died
July 3lst, in his fifth year. He was bright
little jewel, and in mind far ahead OF boys
of his age. He was a regular attendant at
Sunday School, and at his dying hour
showed his full appreciation of all that had
been taught him. 1t is useless to deny that
such things give US sorrow. They do, but
how different must be that sorrow were there
no God who loves rs, and no Rredeemer who
has conquered death. 1t may be through
tears, but We can SIN llplk 70 a gracious ana

is that "dancing is a violation If tho mo-

tanned no doubt upon the point. He cv-
pressed himself ompAatically that the dis
cipiino Of the Methodist Episcopal Church
prohibited dancing. and said il WAS 81 plain
that he would not hear argument on the
point
