ready to fill her place cheerfullv and
happily as wife, daughter, sister
and friend. Words can not fill the
void felt by the sad ones, but the
sympathy of friends will be precious
to them. Funeral services were held
Saturday, Nov. 2nd, at II a. m., in
the Grange church, Rev. Donahey
officiating, and the remains were laid
to rest in the Forrest Hill cemetery.

EARTHQUAKES,

A few minutes after five last Thurs
day morning the sleeping populace of
Napoleon were awakened by the rat
tling of windows and shutters and
the shaking up of things in general.
At first it was thought an explosion
had occurred, but the first shock be-
ing repeated by q second and then a
third the now thoroughly awakened
residents realized that it was a first
class earthquake. The vibrations
were from east to west and the shock
was generally felt throughout the
Mississippi valley. The shocks were
too light to do any damage in this
city although in some places walls
were cracked and thrown down.

The Best Light.

Now that the long winter evenings
are coming on and everybody should
take the electric light. 1t is not only
the best light out, but is almost as
cheap as coal oil. In fact, taking into
consideration the time lost in keep
ing oil lamps in proper trim, the cleo
trio light Is the cheapest. Once put
it in your residence or business house
and you would not think of burning
any other light. Patronize Napoleon
by taking electric light.

A Methodist minister once started
a church in western town, but for
want of pecuniary support was soon
obliged to abandon it. His farewell
sermon to the lukewarm brethren
was characterized by more heat than
elegance. He ended thus; 'At the
last day the Lord will say to st.
Peter, Where is your fock?' and st.
Peter will answer, here, Lord, and
so all of the shepherds can answer
But when He asks me, Where are
your sheep2 how will | feel when |
/ am compelled to reply, Lord. |
haven't any; mine are ell hogs!"-E;r.

Indian summer is the summer of all

Do you wonder that the editor
overlooks some of the local happen
ings? The local column is always of
most interest to the general reader.
The ladies are particularly. fond of
the going and coming of our citizens.
Because your name is not in the
paper is not due to any personal
feeling that the editor may have
against you. 1t is your fault. Don't
feel that you are doing anything
wrong to give the reporter an item.
He will always feel grateful for your
kindness and reciproeate the favor
when he can.-Er.
The mysterious thing is coming.

Last week Geo. Bowerman and
son Frank cut and hauled to the mill
probably the largest tree ever
cut in Henry county. The tree was
an old sycamore, and measured 19
feet across at the root of the stump,
10 feet the narrow way and Is feet
inside of the tree. The monster
made 8 large saw logs.

You're the Judge

Before you try the various brands of
crackers, give Fox's xxx fair
show and ten to one they'll compel
you to decide in their favor. They're
the best-that's the reason. Unless
FOX is stamped on the cracker,
you can't be certain as to it's quality.
