Gentlemen-For years l have been a
great sufferer. My trouble first started
with terrible ague chills and constipa-
tions. This left me in 1878 with a rack
ing cough and frequent bleedings from
the lungs. Since this time l have been
continually doctoring, consulting physi-
clans without number. From them
received no benefit or encouragement.
The most noted physicians of our city
who last visited me expressed their opin-
ions in the brief but hopeless words,
Take good care of yourself the few days
you have to live, we cannot help you"

ment. One day, through reading your
Memorandum Book 1 learned of the
Golden Medical Discovery. With but
little hope of relief, L purchased bottle
and took it. To my surprise and satis-
faction it did me more good than all the
drugs l had taken she year round. l
am now steadily using it with benefit
and recommend it to all to be just what
it is advertised.

We hear that the contract for the
building of the new passenger de-
pot of the l.. IL n. railroad, at
Bradley's brickyard, has been let
to Messrs. Barksdale, Clark & Co.,
carpenters and builders of this city,
who will soon commence its cree
ton. We are unable to state, at
present, the dimensions, style and
extent of the building, but we I'M
derstand~ that it is to be a very
commodiOus and tasty building
with all the modern appurtanances
and improvements. The fact that
it is to be built by the old and re-
liable firm of Messrs, Barksdale,
Clark & Co. lisa good and sufficient
guarantee that the work will be
done in the very best manner pos
sible.

New Jersey; FL. S. Sanford, of jack

met in Indianapolis, Ind, on the
fourth Tuesday of August, for the
purpose OF examining the books
and accounts of John B. Stumph,
S. M. of e. Mr.. Stumph has charge
of all the funds of the Supreme
Lodge and of the endowment In
surance) rank, and large sums or
money pass through his hands. Du-
ring the last year he received from
the endowment rank alone, the
large sum of s437 ,312 So, and paid
out $434, 4n7 Sc, of which $416, 233
was paid directly to the widows and
orphans of deceased members of the
order. What a glorious record is
this, and how much distress and
want has been averted by the wis
dom of the members of this noble
order in making ample provision
for all such contingencies. Nearly
half million dollars paid in one
year for the relief of the helpless.
But more wonderful still, this large
amount of business was transacted
at an expense of less than per cent,
the exact cost being % per cent.
What insurance company can show
such economy in the administra-
ton of its affairs? What business
can be conducted at solittIe expense?
The committee made a thorough
examination of the books and pa
pers of the office; commencing at
the original report and remittances
from the subordinates, and carried
their investigation through all the
books and found everything in per-
feet order. The members of the
order can rest assured, that SO long
as John b. Stumph is at the head
of its finances, 50 long will their in
terests be safe.
We learn from Jos. Dowdall, S.
X. r. and s., that there are now
over 10000 members of the order,
of whom $4,000 are members of the
endowment rank. The past year
has been the most prosperous since
its institution, and the outlook for
the immediate future, gives prom
Use of even greater increase. May
the good work go on.

is unexceptionable, the attendance
firstclass, and indeed we may truth

tits good thing for both guests and

medical springs, are getting well
there every week so easily and
quickly that the invalids almost
come to the conclusion there never
was much the matter with them.

interested in such matters, drop Il

for circular. Then write to the

friend, by whom it is said, "suffer the little
children to come unto me and forbid them
not for of such is the kingdom of heaven
A child who was the mothers care and the
fathers comfort around the family circle
of their little home, and who was so bound
to both father and mother by every tie OF
tenderest love and affection, must surely be
a blessed addition to the heavenly throng
of bright little ones above.
In the death of child who was as pure
as the seraph that smilingly looks from
