Obituary.

Died. September 9th, 1891, Mrs. Aman-
da E. Baker, wife OF Willie u. Bake, apctl
41 years. Buried at NIounlain Grove B1p.
tist Church cemetery on the day following.
She leaves husband and five children.
She had bccn cosislcnt member of the
baptist church since quite girl. Thus a
cliitIr IS made vacant and another spirit has
winged its flight to brighter and happier
world. Words can never portray the void
that is felt by the removal of fond and
loving companion and mother.
The earnest Gaze and wise c0unscls are
missed. The willing hanGs are sliled and
the gentle voice is silent. Time can never
cifacc her blessed memory from each of
the tamily's Sad heart, but the cross is
iiShtcncd by the comforting hope that their
loss is her gain. She fulfilled all the du-
ties of life faithfully, and thus she com.
mcnds the Gospel Of Christ. She bore h, +
Illness with christian furtindc and waited
patiently TO hear the summons, "Come We,
blessed of my Father" We leave our
friend in the keeping of Him who looks
down and watches all our dust till He shall
bid it rise, and we bow submissivcly to say
not our will, but thine be donc.
"RcSt on, dear Friend, from sorrow,
the battle Is over, the victory is won,
On thy Siumbcrs dawn no morrow
But thy earthly race is rum"

A DEADLY FOE.
Experiments with Alcohol Show Some of
Its Terrible Effects.

Experiments with Alcohol Show Some of
Its Terrible Effects.
That alcohol is a deadly and insidious
foe to life is constantly being shown by
the facts of science. The latest note
worthy developments along this line
are brought out by French scientist
and summarized as follows:
1t was shown by experiments with hen eggs,
exposed to the vapor of alcohol, that such eggs,
as a rule do not hatch out, and when they do
they often produce monstrosities. NJ. Fere,
who made the experiments, concludes that,
similarly, in the human species, the low BIRTH
rate and degeneracy of persons addicted to al
cohol are attributable to that habit. Develop
ment is checked, not only in the user. but the
effect is perniciouS upon the offspring of the
alcoholized person Feres experiments with
absinthe vapor on hen eggs also resulted in the
production of monStroSitieS.
This is not the first time that the
striking fact has been intimated that
the decreased birth-rate and actual fall
