One of the best ways to cause better times
is to pay your honest debts, ard if those
persons who have the money In their
pockets or in banks and are continually
excusiDg themselves from paying their
just debts on the ground that "times are
too hard" would pay up, it would enable
others who cannot, to do SO. If this was
done we would have better times.

Mr.. Jas. Simpson, son Of Mr.. Thos. R.
Simpson, of P.ndleton Township, met
with very serious accident last Monday.
He was at work in his fathers mill, when
his coat caught in the shafting, lifting him
off Of the floor and whirling his body
around several times, resulting In break
ing three or four ribs and painfully bruis-
ing his body in several places. Forum
ately, DR.. j. g. Duckworth happened to be
at Mr.. Simpsons home near by, visiting
Mrs. Simpson, who is sick, and the un-
fortunate young man secured prompt
attention. Tuesday morning the young
man was resting comparatively easy, but
his injuries are considered right serious.
Mrs. Eliza J. Hsrbin, wife of Mr.. Geo.
B. Harbin, and daughter of Mrs. Harriet
Pritchard, died at her home in Centerville
Township, Tuesday morning, at 10 O'Clock.
she was about As years Of age, and had
been sick only few weeks with fever.
Her death, therefore, was great shock to
many of her friends and neighbors, who
did not consider her condition serious.
Mrs. Harbin was born and reared and had
always lived in the community where she
died, and was greatly beloved by all of her
friends and acquaintances. She was q
most excellent Christian woman, having
been faithful member of New Prospect
Baptist Church since her girlhood. AS a
wife, mother and neighbor, she dis.
charged her duties faithfully, and when
the summons of death came she was pre-.
pared to enter that heaven Of rest where
sorrow and sickness is never known. She
was the mother of eleven children, nine of
whom survive her. The bereaved husband
and children have many sympathies in
their sorrow. Her remains will be inter-
red today in the New Prospect Church
yard.
