Children NOvelists.

Several years ago James Payn excited
discussion by declaring that novel
writing is a profession Of much profit to
which parents might well train their
sons, but it was not remarked at the
time, / think, that when the parents are
themselves novelists the children, sons
or daughters, seem often to take to fic-
tion naturally. Thomas Hood wrote at
least one novel, and his son, Tom Hood,
wrote several. Alexandra Dumas fills is

Obituary.

Mrs. Dora Phillips, nee Garrett, daughter of Thos. 0. and NJ. A.. Garrett. and wife of W. l.. Phillips, was born m Nevada county, then Hampstead, January ', 1864, and died at her home near Laneburg, June l6, 1891. She was happily married to Willie l.. Phillips March 20, 1881. She was converted and joined the M E. church, at HarmO- ny, at the age of II years, in which she lived a consistent and acceptable member until years ago, when she united with her husband the Mission ary Baptist church, which was the church of his choice. From the date of her conversion she was ever rccog- nzcd by all as devoted and hum blc Christian, though modest and re- tiring m disposition in a general way, she was bold and fearless in the discharge of Christian duty. It can he truly said of her that none knew her but to love her, and no one named her but 10 praise. Her cne- mics were unknown, and her friends were limited only by acquaintan- ship As wife, she was devoted and forbcaring almost to a fault, al ways ready and willing to sacrifice her own pleasure for that of her hus- band, As a daughter, sister and friend. she was kind, loving, dutiful, forgiving and self-sacriticing. She died the death of q true Christian, retaining her consciousness almost to the last, and when fully realizing that she must soon go, she called relatives and friends to her bedside one by one, and calling each by name she calmly bade each farewell, and calmly requested them to meet her in heaven. In response to the question whether she was ready to meet death she answered calmly in the affirmative. Said that she had been making preparations to meet the trying moment for many years and that she was ready and willing To 20. if 1t was the Lord $ will. She leaves behind to mourn their loss which seems almost irreparable, but to her gain unmeasurably great, a grief stricken husband and little daughter, aged 6 summers, an aged mother, brothers and sisters, be- sides many other relatives and a large circle of friends.

For Over Fifty Years.

It has been said that skilful adycr- tislng will accomplish wonders, and thl, is partly true, for 1t is no un- common thing to see various nos trums achieve q brief notoricty in this way But they do not outllat the notices that herald them. Thus 1t is that the mcrcurial and potash remedies are constantly appearing before the public in new disguiscs. Advertising, however, will not ac- count for the popularity that $. $. S. has enjoyed for fifty years, nor for the fact that it has become a house hold remedy; nor will advertising ac- count for the thousands of tcstimo- nlals that the people have given in It's behalf. Only the most substan- tlal merit can account for the cstima- tlon In which this wonderful mcdc- cine is held.
