MRS. j. NJ. ARNOLD.

DIeuS April lItH, Ioot, MIS- y. vi.
Arnold. who was born September
Sd, 1919, near LeWistown, Frederick
county, Md. She lived in Frederick
City from her marriage until April
4th, 1867, when. with her devoted
husband, she moved to Oakland, Md,
where she spent the residue of her
life. She died at the residence of her
son, F. p. Arnold, on the night of
the 18th inst. She was a sufferer for
many years, and medical aid was
vain, for age together with infirmity
had destroyed her constitution. She
only awaited the summons. The de-
cesed was a consistent member of
the Evangelical Lutheran Church in
Frederick City, Md, from her early
womanhood, until leaving that city.
When she and her husband. Mr.. J.
M. Arnold came to Oakland she be-
came a member of the Oakland Evan
gelical Lutheran Church, in which
she was an exemplary member up to
her death, although during the last
several years of her life she was de.
MED the privilege OF attending the
services of the church on account of
declining health. She was the affec-
tionate mother of large family of
devoted children, most of whom sur
wye her. Her devoted companion
with whom she travelled almost the
entire journey of life went to his re.
ward alone, only about four months
ago. Since that time her object of
living seemed lost, and in her private
conversation she spoke of her old
home and friends in Frederick, and
the joy of meeting them soon. Little
did she think of meeting them in the
city above, instead of her old home
city. But the Lord had decreed that
she should first join her beloved hus-
band and they together greet their
old friends as they obeyed the holy
command of coming up higher into
the rest that remaineth for the chill.
dren of God. Our sad loss is her eter-
nal gain. May the Lord comfort the
bereaved hearts of her children and
friends. And may they so live in
the true faith of Christ their Saviour
that when the summons of death
shall call them from earth away, they
may be reunited as family never tt
be separated throughout the Ions
ages of eternity.

MRS. ELIZABETH GUYTON.

MRS. ELIZABETH GUYTON.
Mrs. Elizabeth Guyton, wife of
Albert Gallatin Guyton, died at the
residence of her son-in-law, Mr.. j.
M. Boyer, on last Friday, April 18th,
1884, being eighty years, four months
and six days old. The deceased was
born in Ireland December 18th, 1903.
She came to this country with her
parents, William and Elizabeth Cor
den, at the age of one year. The
family resided in Lancaster City,
Pa, until she was fifteen years old.
Her parents then moved to Freder-
lex, Md, where she was married and
lived until her large family, consist
sisting of nine children, five boys
and four girls grew up and were
married. and able to care for their
own homes and for their aged par
ents. She was treasure to So
ciety, to the church and especially
to her now aged, but beloved hus-
band, and her numerous chiIdren.and
grandchildren. She leaves seven of
her children, forty-fOur grandchiI-
dren and thirteen great-grandchiI-
dren, to join her fond parents, two
children and four grandchildren in
the land of pure delight. Ofthe sew
enty descendants of the family only
ten have died during the last thirty
seven years, two ofwhich were adults
and eight were children--infants.
Thus the words of the Holy Scrip
lures have been fulfilled in her life
''Thou shalt know also that thy seed
shall be great and thine offspring as
the grass of the earth. Thou shalt |
come to thy grave in a full age, like
as shock of corn cometh in his sea-
son." Joo. 3: %, 26.
On arriving at Oakland, Md, Mrs. !
Guyton and her husband became |
members of the Lutheran Church,
and although they were not able on
account of age and infirmity to get to
church often, they welcomed the pas
tors visits, and gladly partook of the
Holy communion privately. Just the
Sabbath before her death the pastor
the Holy communion
to her, and she spoke of very soon
enjoying it with Christ anew at her
Fathers table on high. She was not
only ready, but willing to be absent
from the flesh and present with the
Lord. Her last audible prayer was
that her Lord would take her to His
sweet rest on high, reserved for His
saints. May double portion of her
sweet, grand spirit of faith fall as a
mantle upon many of her dear ones
left behind.
Her funeral was from the residence
of her son-in-Iaw, Mr.. j. M. Boyer,
to the Lutheran church, thence to the
cemetery of the ]. o. o. F. The
funernal was large, the church could
not hold near all the people, Rev.
VIM. Stoudenmire, the pastor, was
in the service by Rev. M. w.
Rider, of the M. E. Church. May
the Lord comfort the hearts of the
bereaved family and friends.

Reasons for Worshiping the White
Elephant.

CACphduN.
The extraordinary veneration offered by
the people to the white elephant in the
land of its capture, is traditional super.
stition of ancient date. 1t is a portion of
the general reverence, among Buddhists,
of white quadrupeds. The fact that the
white elephant is found only in Buddhist
countries, and but rarely even in them,
probably gave rise to the belief that it
must be the temporary abode of some
mighty BuddhB in his progress toward
perfection. 1t was therefore agreed that
to possess such prize must be tatamount
to enjoying the presence of Deity, with all
concomitant blessings. Consequently the
kingdom where one OF these blonde and
cyclopean beasts reside is thought to be
rich and not liable to change, and the
king is congratulated on being long-lived
and invincible. Through his elephantine
sympathies he believes himself partaker
of the divine nature. In the Pail script
ures it is duty set forth that the form
under which Buddha will descend to
the earth for the last time will be that
OF beautiful young white elephant, open
jawed, with the head of the color of cochi-
neal, with tusks shining like silver, spark
ling with gems, covered with splendiA
netting of gold, perfect in organs and limbs,
and majestic in appearance. See the Won
derfnl creature in Forepaugh's Great Show
at Defiance, on Saturday, August 3Oth.

Beautiful CoF0rS.

DCduLlANd SoFWIp.
Nothing pleases the eye more than
bright beautiful colors. Nature produces
all of them and art many of them almost
to perfection. The materials used in pro-
dueing them are paints and dyestuffs of
which you can always find large stock
and great variety at Saur's Drug and Paint
Store. Saur makes specially in con-
stantly keeping on hand the very best the
markets afford and that which he can
guarantee to his customers to give en-
tire satisfaction and which at the same
time does not cost any more than most
of the lower grades. The price of paints
has lately been reduced SO that now they
are lower than they have been at anytime
for the last rs years, and everybody who
has house or barn or any out building
can afford to paint them, which not only
improves the looks Of the property many
times, but it is the very best economy to
paint every or 6 years, because any piece
of wood kept well covered with paint will
last almost for ages. You who have
buildings that need any painting, 60 to
sarr's Drug and Paint Store when you
are in town and just see how little the
outlay will be to make your property look
nice or even better than new. You can
get any shade or color you wish already
mixed for use and almost anybody can
apply it.

cause she does not "blow up" our county

PEELED to acknowledge that our Demo-

ing what is best for the interest of the peo-
pie of the county. oh, granny, your a sly
one. You would make fair specimen of
circus hyena. For shame, and is it any
wonder your party is disgusted with you?
As for "blowing up'' our county officials
and the Democratic candidates, the more
you blow the larger their majorities will
be. Experience has taught you this fact,
therefore you cry for pap in the above n.y.
ena-like manner. Granny, your getting

Four years ago the Republican organs
and stump orators raised the same howl
as now for high protective tariff. They
told the peple that if the Democratic par
ty were placed in power that free-trade
would be established and then everything
would 60 to the dogs. The people became
alarmed and retained the Republicans in
Office with this result: The tariff on Wool
was reduced to the injury of the farmer,
and the tariff on woolen goods was raised
to the injury of the workingmen. Thus
by their single act of legislation did the
Republican party steal the hard earned
money out of the pockets of the farmer
and the workingman and put it into the
pockets of the manufacturer and the cap
