We Regret to Lose Them.

Rev. Robert Van Deventer, pastor
of the Henderson Baptist church, hav-
ing resigned the charge which he has
SO well and faithfully held the past
eight years, and accepted a call to
Burlington, left last week for his new
home and field Of labor. 1t is with
exceeding regret that his congregation
and the people of the community gen.
orally witness the departure of Mr..
Van Deventer and his excellent wife.
Their place among us will be difficult
to fill. They will be greatly missed in
the work of the church and in social
circles. The citizens Of Burlington are
to be congratulated upon having them
locate there.
Mr.. Van Deventer is one of the
most earnest and conscientious preach
ers we know. We admire his originality
and devotion to duty as he sees it, He
is man Of ability, strong in argument,
deep in thought, vigorous in style
pleasing in manner. The church men,
bership has grown under his admins.
tration and its condition otherwise has
been healthy and progressive. With
such record to his credit his late
charge sustains positive loss in his
resignation and going away. He is a
good preacher and devoted pastor
greatly beloved by his congregation
We commend him and his wife to the
citizens OF Burlington. While wishing
them well in their new home, the
GOLD LEAF but voices the sentimen,
of the people Of Henderson when i,
says that we regret to lose Mr.. an(
Mrs. Van Devcnter as citizens of oul
community.

Mutually Agreeable.

1t is very gratifying to publisher
to receive such letters as we did few
days ago from c. l. Hood & Co., the
great proprietary medicine manufac-
turers of Lowell, Mass. In submitting
a new contract for carrying their adj
vertisement another year, they write:
We thank you for the excellent service
of the past year. We desire to remain in
your columns the ensuing year, and to
this end enclose contract which please
sign and return Trusting that
our business relations will be as pleasant
the ensuing year as heretofore, we are,
very truly yours, &c.
The above courteous and kindly
words conveying sense of pleasure at
the service rendered, as we'll as salts
faction at the returns made, as implied
in the desire to renew contract, were
appreciated by us almost as much as
the receipt of check for last quarter.
There is moral in this. If advertis-
ing does not pay would such men as c.
I. Hood & Co., expend hundreds of
thousands of dollars yearly in that
way? Certainly not. And if they did
not find the GOLD LEAF a helpful
medium in spreading the fame Of
Hoods Sarsaparilla, Hoods Pills, &C.,
and increasing the sales of same in this
community, do you think they would
continue paying out good money to it
year after year as they do? Not much.
If it pays them, then why will it not
pay you to keep your name and bust
ness before the public by employing
its advertising columns as they and
others of the most successful and intel
ligent men throughout the country do :
| TO give some idea of the immensely
of this concern and the magnitude of
their business, we will state in this
connection that Hoods Sarsaparilla
Laboratory has three AGREES of floor
area, and is the largest building in the
world devoted exclusively to the pro-
prietary medicine business.
With % years unbroken experience
and ample capital at our command to
buy strictly for cash, we feel sure in saying
we can supply your wants at lower prices
than any competitor. DAVIS 4 ROSE
