Obituary..

sEATrs.-At the residence Of her son-in-Iaw,
Levi PrTsinger, Of Liberty township, on Friday
evening, Nov. 17th, 1921. Sarah A. Skates, aged
s. years and 20 days. Her disease vas cancer.
Her maiden name was sarah A. Bowan. She
was born In Franklin county. Ohio, Oct. 2s 1911.
She removed With her parents to Marion county
and was there united In marriage to Patrick Estes
10 the year 1922. From Marion county Mr.. Skates
and family removed 20 Seneca county whsre they
resided until iS47 then came TO the wilds OF Henry
comfy liberty township, where they resided until
death.
Grandma Skates was the mother OF thirteen
chidien seven of whom preceded her. Sne was
grandmother Of thirty seven and greaI-grand.
mother OF nfty-thrse children. The husband and
father departed this life nearly nine years ago.
Grandmother Skates, as sns was familiarity called,
became christian in early life; she was in the
services of tbs Lord for sixtyeisht years ahe was
one OF the most prominent and leading members
Of the Church OF God at Ihs tims of her DEATH She
was hosored and respected by all who knew her,
far and near aud she left the brightest evidence
that she gone 10 that land where the weary are
forever at rest.
The funeral services Wsro held at the Olive
Chapel on Sunday afternoon, Elder L. Allemsn
officiating, after which her remains were i'd to
rest in the Morrison cemetery.
Our mother dear from us has gone
Her sweet voice we loved 10 stllied;
The place lie tin the home,
Which never can be flied.
Weep no more for mother,
Do not wish her back again,
Do not call her from her mansion,
That il free from care aud pan.
She is now at rest In glory,
She Is with the angol bands,
She is singing of redemption
In that bright and happy land.
A FRIEND.

Get Vaccinated Quick.

While not desiring to be considered
an aIarmist, Secretary Probst, of the
State Board of Health, believes thai
public attention should be called t.
the necessity for vaccination.
1--WE have not had general small
pox scare in this country since 1881, y
said the Doctor, "and the result is that
very few of the children born since
then have been vaccinated. There
are lots OF them and an epidemic OF
smallpox might carry many of them
to their graves"
DIR. Probst says there are seats of the
epidemic now in New York, Connect
cut, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Kentucky
and Tennessee. In Pennsylvania there
are eight places where smallpox is epi.
demic, and in five of them the health
authorities have been unable to dis
cover its origin. This puts them at
great disadvantage In trying to contro
it and stamp it out. 1t was due largely
to the inability of the State Board OF
Health of Ohio to discover the rea
origin of the disease at Akron last year
that prevented prompt control of the
epidemic there.
The discovery of the origin Of the
epidemic at Knoxville and Nashville
Tenn, shows that the condition il
alarming there At the first-named
place it has been traced to man who
cleans the railway cars, and at Louis
vile, KY, to man who is employed
in a laundry where the bedding Of Pull
man sleeping cars is washed. These
facts are taken by DR.. Probst to show
that the germs are scattered along the
channel of travel in these states ant
there ia no telling how many have
been infected.
The lesson of the hour Is that every
one, and especially every parent, who
have children that have not already
been vaccinated, vaccinated at once.

TAX
Will Probably Not Touch Personal Earn
ings at All.

VIII Probably Not Touch Personal Earn
ings at All.
WASHINGTON, Dec.2 congress meets
next Monday and the presidents mes
sage will undoubtedly be one of the
most important ever delivered to any
congress The silver question, the
Hawaiian question, the tariff question
and the income tax question will doubt
less all claim much of the document.
1t is now pretty well understood that
the committee on ways and means have
prepared an income tax bill in accord
ance with the presidents views. Chair
man Wilson says the new tariff bill will
leave the revenues about $35, ,O00,0O0
short. and Secretary Carlisle agrees
with him in this estimate. This is to
be made up by tax, not on private
earnings, but by making the levy on
corporations, SUGGESTIONS and legacles.
The income tax will bo confined to
these limits.
SUGGESTIONS and legacies in this con-
nsctions apply only to personally and
moneys. Tho Democrats of the COM
mittee have also decided to increase the
tax on cigarettes and to impose tax
on playing cards. Both of these points
are definitely decided, the object, on the
one hand, being to tax a nuisance,
and on the other to tax an article which
can bear heavy burden without any
individual feeling the weight of it. The
internal revenue tax on whisky is still
an Oman question.

Every indication points 10 the fact that the
midnight air was pierced twice when she

coming from every point. They stopped in

fingers to their ears to shut out those heart

pulled from his pistol pocket flask of
whiskey and fifty cents in gold. Hastily re-
placing the money. no gave the faintina
man drink from his flask. Then more
men tainted; the faintina was keptup until
the whiskey gave out. Il was horrible!
Meanwhile those shEieks were piercing the
midnight, which by this time was full of

Got the NIitten Every Time.

II can marry any girl 1 please" was
his exclamation, but unfortunately
then he did not please any; and there
was a plain reason for it. He had con-
tracted catarrh of the worst form, and
although a wealthy, educated, attrac-
tive person every other way, he was
positively repulsive to his lady friends,
a number of whom rejected his offers
OF marriage. A friend advised him to
use DR.. Ssge's Catarrh Remedy. He
took his advice, and now is the most
popular beau in town, and he really

es from the nose, in short, is in per-
feet health, and all from using n few
bottles of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.

Doubted in Washington.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 5.-Oficials of the
state department have received no ad-
vices from Hawaii by the barkentine
Klicklitat, which arrived at Port Town
send from Honolulu. They are inclined
to discredit and question the accuracy
of the purported interview with Minis
ter Willis in the Honolulu Evening
Star. They say that it would have
been improper for Minister Willis to
have thus expressed himself, and they
do not believe he made the statements
attributed to him.
The president and the department of
state were evidently not expecting any
news from Honolulu Tuesday morning,
and the Associated Press telegram, Civ
ing news received by vessel from
Honolulu, caused surprise. Secretary
Gresham was engaged Tuesday morning
with Justice Harlan, presumably on the
Behring sea negotiation, and would not
be seen. The impropriety of Minister
Willis expressing as he was reported to
have done 30 was the only reason ad-
vanced by other officials for discredit-
ing the reported interview.
