There she lahore early an late for the welfare of

returned to the town OF Lapsrie and resided in her
owp home. until within very few years. when the
infrmities of age, made it necessary for her to
come 10 this city aud reside with her children until
the end.
Any eulogy upon the life and character of our
dear viii, to the stranger. be meaningless per-
haps, from the fact of the universal custom OF
praising the dead. But be it said Tor the comfort
and knowledge of absent friends, who in the past
were 80 well acquainted with her womanly virtues
that in declining years they the less
marked, nor shono less brightly. Even in the last
days of her life though full of suffering, she was
accomplishing, and except in moments of intense
agony her manner was cheerful and bright, a sure
mark OF unselfshuess trait of character she po-
sesscd in very remarkable degree Her whole life
was honesty, industry and economy personded.
Oh. that the rising generation would follow her in
those qualities. She lived in love aad charity with
all mankind, and died beloved and honorcd by
friends and relatives near and remote. She was
blessed with loving children, whose constant care
vas her comfort. who will always hold her memory
fresh and green In their hearts.
--0h. why should the spirit of mortal be proud?
Like swift, hceting meteor, n fast flying cloud,

That withers away IN let others succeed:
SO the multitude comes, even these we behold,
To repeat every tale that has often been told.
They died, ayel they died, things that are cow,
That walk the turf that lies their brow,
Aud make in their dwellings a transient abode,
Meet the things that they met on their pilgrimage
road.
Tis the wink of an eye, It's the dral ght Of BREATH
From the blossom of health TO the paeness of death,
From the gil led saloon TO the bier and the shroud.
Oh. why should the spirit of mortal he proud,

The temperance men OF Argos
were here in force last Thursday to
file with the Commissioners their
objections to licensing a saloon at
Argos. The Commissioners were
convinced that a maj )rity OF the
citizens OF that town and vicinity did
not want saloon in their midst, and
they rejected the application. The
temperance people went home re-
ioicing. When Argos determines to
accomplish any thing it may almost
be set down thatit is accomplished, for
they will succeed if there is any
possible show OF success.
VI
tiers OF Union county, Ohio, who has
resided in Argos for the last twelve
years, and always takes the REPUBLI-
CAN, called on us Thursday. We
found him an intelligent, jolly old
man, and were much pleased with
his visit. He showed us tax re-
ceipt of which the following is
copy:

on 100 acres Of land No. 1852 And 80 els.
in full of his chaitel tax for the present
year. Oct. 2lst, 1910.
A. Pollock, TT, L. G.
Mr. Gould says he had at that time
five head of cattle and considerable
other personal property, and that the
land was good. He thinks that taxes
ought to be lower than they now are;
though he says money was great
deal scarcer then than now.

themselves humiliated by the idea tha,
their ancestors we've monkeys, but the
elent nts of which the human race is
composed must have passed through
numberleSs stages of evolution before
they arrived at the dignity of an Anthro-
poid Ape. Trace the process backward
and you will fnd it much further from
the ape 10 the homogeneous atom Of pre-
toplasm, than from the man to the ape.
Seeing then that The earth and every
thing pertaining to the earth are perpet-
nally evolving into new matter Of being,
we suppose that the heavenly bodies are
actuated by the same universal and eter-
nal laws of existence. And seeing that
matter and force are eternal and govern
ed hyco.eternal laws, which adjusts all
the severairpsrts and conserves all the
forces and energies, we are at a loss to
conceive what junction or Office creator
car exercise, nature performing all the
acts usually attributed 10 this creator,
we are forced to dispense with the idea
-of creation and creator, they being
cG-relative terms. But the christian
philosopher when asked to define bis
creator will tell you D,ity is iucompro-
hensible and past finding out. This is
more than the msterialisL will say, The
na'erialist is satisfied with saying that
he cannot comprehend any such being
Other christian philosophers say their
God is without body, parts or passions,
which might do for the definition Of the
word nothing, it is nonentity and con-
veys no idea to an intelligent mind
There can be no absolute being existing
outside of all relation. "All are hut
parts of s'upendious whole" Some
people attempt to account for the mys
Etery of the existence Of things by as
signing them to the agency OF a so call
ed Supernatural being residing outside
the realm of The universe But as we
are all. natural, beings subject. to natural
laws and conditions, we have no means
Of knowing the supernatural. Nature, is
the highest order of things conceiyablt
to Us When reason, aided by expe.
rience, fails to account for tue existence
Of a supernatural being they will al
tempt to account for it by intuition, but
intuition is only inherited experience
and our ancestors had no experience out
side the realm of this universe, there
fore know no more about the supernat
ural than ourselves do.
