Obituary.

| JOSEPH M. RINGO was born in Sep
TENDER, 1929, in Hickman county, Ken
lucky. but settled in Mississippi coun-
ty, Mo-, when about twenty-one years
old. Here he engaged in business as
farmer and merchant, and prosecuted
the same with success for number of
years. He was married to Miss Fred
ania McGregor February 21st, 1854,
moved his family to Arcadia for health
and educational advantages, but, for
business considerations, continued to
spend much the larger portion of his
time in Mississippi county. The fact
that Mr.. Ringo was for four years one
of the judges of the county court and
treasurer for another four years of his
county, only shows the high esteem in
which he was held by his fellow citi-
zens. His moral traits of character
are indicated very clearly in the words
of one of his daughters in a letter to
me. She says, "He was a member of
the Baptist church, but was charitable
to all denominations, believed in being
Christian above all things. He labor
ed to insti1l into the minds of his chill
dren to do to others as they would be
done by, and to return good for evil in
all cases. During all his life he never
let his children hear him speak evil of
any one; it was thing he would not
tolerate in his children. +" Forgive.
forgive, was his motto! This is as
high an eulogy as any father could re-
daughter, and she spoke for all.
It was my privilege to meet Brother
Ringo often when with his family in
Arcadia and to know him well, and, in
all respects, he fully impressed himself
upon me as gentleman and Christian
who could be trusted. Mr.. Ringo was
for many years asufferer from rheuma-
tism, and this was reason for his pre-
ferring to spend a portion OF his time
at his place in Mississippi county; he
thought the climate there agreed better
with him. But no earthly location or
climate can reverse the decree, ..Dust
thou art and to dust thou shalt return. :"
His well-tried spirit quit its earthly
tabernacle on the 18th day of January,
1898, to join his glorifed companion in
heaven. They have left three sons
and three daughters, all of mature age,
and worthy children of Cody parents.
To these let me say, s.Walk in the foot
steps of your pious parents. and the
separation will not be long, 1t wasa
source of grief to me that / could not
obey your message to be with you to
conduct the funeral services at your
fathers burial, as I did at your moth
er's, but our sympathy and prayers are
with you, as are those of Him who
.swept" with Mary and Martha at the
grave of Lazarus.

If the omen of the ground hog is to

There has been a large influx of
drummers to our town here lately,
but owing to the stagnation of trade,
they have generally met with
what would be termed a water haul,
and as a consequence, our mercantile
houses are looking little lean these
days. No work, no money in circula-
ton, say they can't stock up on tick,
and so the indications for a large spring
opening are anything but flattering in
this neck O. the woods.

Ed. Register-Although much of the
weather during the past month was
very damp. comparatively little snow
fell hereabouts. Much of the time it
froze considerably through the night,
but thawed to about the same extent
during the day succeeding.
1t is feared that the unfavorable
weather will prove to have very mater
tally damaged wheat; the alternate
freezing and thawing causing an up
heaval, and consequent exposure of
the roots of the wheat-plant; thus rem
dering it's being subsequently killed by
freezing quite probable. The same is
true, though to a lesser degree, with
meadows.

Owing to the unusually good price Of
fered for live hogs, most of them have
been sold. For the last lot bought l
have been informed five cents per

that in consequence of the scarcity of
hogs, beef-ca:tle will bring much
more satisfactory price ere the close OF
this year than they have for several
years past.

Owing to the frequency of inclement

similar constructive preparations for

however, that the mill will be in oper-
alton by the first of March. Messrs.

Ed. Reg,ster-The beautiful weather
which we had from the 18th of Janu-
airy to the first instant, was utilized by
the farmers of this locality.
From what observed along the road
on a recent trip to Ironton, feel pref
ty safe in predicting that the yield OF
wheat in Iron county at next harvest
cannot exceed SO per cent. of an ordi-
nary yield.
The Legislature, during the present
session, will probably make an attempt
to better the present road law, and be-
fore touching the question of working
convict labor on the public highway,
that question should be well consider
ed. Whatever may be said in its favor
there are strong objections to the intro
duction OF that system. That it is an
impossibility to keep the roads in prop
er condition under the present law, all
will admit; and the question of poll
tax should be first considered. Let
the poll-tax be paid in money, the mon
ey judiciously expended by a good
supervisor, and great improvement
would soon be apparent. For the past
five years this road district has had
first-class men as Overseers, and for
that period the roads have been in bad
condition. and will so continue until
the present road law be revised.

known and most respected business
men in that city, says: 81 can testify
to the good qualities of Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy. Having used it in my
family for the past eight years, 1 can
safely say it has no equal for either
colds or Group. 1t seems to expel the
mucus from the lungs, and leave the
system in as good condition as before
taking the cold. We have also used
several other kinds, but unhesitatingly
say Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
the best of ALL" 80 cent bottles for
