THE FUNERAL BELL.

Some one has gone from this strange world
of ours, & Ahs
No more to gather its thors with its how-
erS;
No longer to linger where sunbeams must
fade,
When on all beauty deaths finger is laid.
Weary with mingling life's bitter with
sweet,
Weary with parting and never to meet,
Some one has gone to the bright, golden
shore
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape on the
door;
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape on the
door.
Some one is resting from sorrow and sin,
Happy where earth's conflicts enter not in;
Joyous as birds when the morning is bright,
When the sweet sunbeams have brought us
their light.
Weary with sowing and never to reap,
Weary with labor and welcoming sleep,
Some ones departed for heavens bright
shore
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape on the
door;
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape on the
door.
Angels were anxiousy longing to meet
One who walks with them in heavens bright
street;
Loved ones have whispered that some one
is blest,
Free from earth's trials and taking sweet
rest.
Yes there is one more in angelic bliss,
One less to cherish and one less to kiss,
One more departed to heavens bright
shore
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape one the
door,
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape on the
door.

The following information may be
useful to some at this season OF the
year, if not new to many:
Spinach has direct effect upon the
kidneys.
The common dandelion, used as
greens, is excellent for the same
trouble.
Asparagus purges the blood. Celery
acts admirably upon the nervous sys-
tenn, and is cure for rheumatism
and neuralgia.
Tomatoes act upon the liver.
Beets and turnips are excellent APP
petizers.
Lettuce and cucumbers are cooling
in their effects upon the system.
Onions, garlic, leeks, olives, and
shalots, all Of which are similar, pos.
sess medicinal virtues of marked
character, stimulating the circulatory
system and the consequent increase
of the saliva and the gastric juice pro-
noting digestion.
Red onions are an excellent dur
etc, and the white ones are recon-
mended to be eaten raw as a remedy

nutritious.

How and When to Drink Water.

According to DR.. Leuf, when wa
ter is taken into the full or partly full
stomach, it does not mingle with the
food, as we are taught, but passes
along Quickly between the food and
lesser curative toward the pylorus,
through which it passes into the in
testines. The secretion of mucus by
the lining membrane is constant, and
during the night a considerable
amount accumulateS in the stomach,
some of its liquid portion is absorbed,
and that which remains is thick and
tenacious. If food is taken into the
stomach when in this condition it be-
comes coated with this mucus, and
the secretion of the gastric juice and
its actions are delayed. These facts
show the value of a goblet of water
before breakfast. This washes out
the tenacious muCus, and stimulates
the gastric glands to secretion. In
old and feeble persons water should
not be taken cold, but it may be with
great advantage taken warm or hot
This removal of the accumulated
mucus from the stomach is probably
one of the reasons why taking soup
at the beginning Of a meal has been
found so beneficial.

Origin of the Term Lynch Law. 4"

1t is not generally known that the
term "lynch law" originated in
Campbell county, Va, before the
Revolutionary war. At that period
the country was thinly settled and
was infested with Torres and deSper-
adoes-to0 many Of them, apparent
ly, for the local authorities to ade-
quately punish. Col, Charles Lynch,
distinguished officer of the Revolu-
tionary army, undertook to rid his
country Of the outlaws. He organ
lied q force, arrested the outlaws,
and having satisfied himself and
comrades Of the guilt of the accused,
executed them without reference to
the constituted authorities. While
not altogether approving of the des-
perate remedy for the desperate
cause, the beneficial effect of Col.
Lynch's action was recognized and
has since been known as "Lynch's
law' or ''lynch Jaw"
Lynch'S process of meeting out
speedy justice extended to other
parts of the country, and is a well
recognized form of redress of griev-
ances today, particularly for that
class of offenses that are popularity be-
lieved not to be adequately punished
by the statutes and courts of the
State. Col. Lynch's brother gave his
name to Lynchburg, and left a son
who was subsequently, governor of
