The ugly scrspe into which A. J.

himself head foremost, was no doubt
owing to his attempting to support

What is undervalued? Land? Railroad stock?
Honor? Truth? No, we think not. What is it
then? We answer: Womanhood, and we mean
perfect womanhood, the womanhood that loves
manhood through that love, beautiful, holy, pure
and true, gives us superb wives and royal mothers.
How many women really have womanhood and
how many know what it is really worth to them?
Women as often undervalue it as men. You, ma
irons, the pride of your husbands and the comfort
of a large family of children, do you know what
has brought you where you are? Do you know
every woman does not have what you have? Do
you remember how you loved your brothers, your
fathers, and how you longed for a lover in your
early days? Mayhap you were laughed at
for it. God forbid, and yet it is often so. Do
you not now see that you were then feeling the
power of heaveR-given instinct, that has made
YOU queens? Oh, magnificently endowed woman,
with mighty stores Of affection, safely moored in a
fond husbands love, gem jewels in Gods creation,
oh, do you value your womanhood?
Do you dare teach girls who are like you to
value theirs? Above all, when you see a dear

Death of Mrs. Moose.

- Death of Mrs. Moose.
Morrllton has been called on to mourn one of
its Oldest and most highly respected citizens. Mrs.
Sophia E., wife of James M. Moose, died the 18th
inst, aged 81 years. Almost her entire life was
spent in this vicinity, and though very retiring and
modest in her manner, she was always prominent
by reason of her works of love and charity. She
was long a consistent and active worker in the
Methodist Church, where by her falthfulness and
wholesome precept and example she was most
useful and influential.
Quietly and peacefully, as the rays of the setting
sun gild the western horizon, she breathed her
last, surrounded by her Borrowing family, of whom
a husband, a sister, three sons and four daughters
survive her. Though she has gone to rest, the
good influence Of her noble, self-sacri6cing life
ever remain a blessing to her friends.
The remains were laid away in the X. of H..
Cemetery Sunday evening, the 18th inst, and the
impressive services at the Methodist Church were
witnessed by a large concourse of s%orrowing
Observation-Disclosures Gazette.
The notice Of the death of this dear, earnest
sister, was a sorIowful surprise, as so recently she
called at headquarters, not only bringing material
aid from Morrilton Union, but expressed so much
interest in the various phases of our work, espe-
cially that which concerns the proper place in the
church for women.
She was our State Superintendent for Suppress
sion of Impure Literature. Who will take her
place? Dear sisters do we realize the terrible in
iuence of this immoral food of literature which
is being spread over the country. We can quietly
do much against it if we watch the opportunity.
Anthony Comstock has had tons of this literature
too obscene for any human being to read without
moral pollution, destroyed in New York; but this
only shows the great need that we all should be
vigient wherever we are. Please report to me
whatever is done on this line so it can be given to
the convention in May-only three months. Let
unions be active so as to sum up the years work
with joy and instead of lament.
Good word comes from Batesville which is pre-
pairing for Demorest Medal contest, as is judi
sonia. This is the best way 10 do temperance
work and make some money beside-gives pleas
ure and instruction too, Mrs. Julia A. Clark, our
faithful Recording Secretary, has gone to Hot
Springs to rest and help care for a dear nephew,
Mr.. Howard, who is in the south to secure the
blessing of health by our beautiful and mild eli
mate. The Beebe union will miss Mrs. c., but we
trust the Hot Springs union, which has been TAX
ing a nap, but is rousing, may be benefited and
avail themselves of her help, for Mrs. c. is like a
fish out of its native element when she Is where
she cannot take part in this great work for hui
mainly. Mrs. F.. L. Sutton, our faithful helper in
the cause, is still at Arkadelphia, and writes that
a "distingushed stranger" arrived at their house
the 18th. So be patient all, as the Gazette in
forms us 'ft is a democrat and of course will
need special care.
