THE NEW TIME.
New Occasions Changes Its Name and
b. q. Flower Becomes one of it's
Editors.

No publication in the country
ever won its way into popular favor
more rapidly than has New Occa-
sions. The thousands of readers of
this reform magazine will be pleased
to learn that Mr.. B. o. Flower has
become associated with Mr.. Fred
erick U. Adams in the editorial
management of the magazine, which
changes its name to The New Time.
AS founder, and for seven years
editor of The Arena Mr.. Flower
has endeared himself to the pro-
gressive thinkers of the country.
He has been one of the intellectual
leaders in the reform movement,
and has done as much as any one
man to arouse the thought of the
nation on the great problems which
are now pressing to solution. He
has a worthy colleague in Mr..
Adams, the brilliant author of
president John Smith," Mr..
Adams editorial work on New
Occasions has been of high order.
Under the joint editorship of Mr..
Flower and Mr.. Adams, "The New
Time" steps into the front rank,
not only as a reform magazine, but
from a literary standpoint,
The publishers have shown good
judgement in not increasing the
price of "lhe New Time" which
will remain at one dollar a year.
This is the lowest subscription price
ever offered for magazine of this
character.

Death of Col. Enoch Moves.

The announcement of the death of Col
Enoch Noyes, which occurred on Sunday
morning last, June 18th, was received by
his numerous friends with pang of grief.
His sickness was but of few days and
few of them were aware of it. In his
death the entire community suffers great
loss. Col. Noyes was a type of noble
manhood; as true as steel, no shadow of
frank sincerity even to austerity marked
his every act and word. He was public

laboring class in every line of honest in
dustry, we'll informed on the vital polit-
ical questions of the times, and frequently
contributed we'll written articles to the
papers on the financial question, ofwhich
he had made an exhaustive study.
Col. Noyes had a model home and farm
on Mount Ararat, near Port Deposit,
which he purchased and greatly improved
soon after the close of the war, three
years of which he served in in a Connec-
ticut regiment, of which State he was a
native, his ancestors being among the
pilgrims of the Mayfower. He leaves a
widow and family of five sons and three
daughters, stricken with that poignant

language is powerless to express.
Funeral services were held at the home
of deceased early on Tuesday morning
and his remains taken to Connecticut and
laid in the cemetery where his ancestors
and members of the family repose in their
dreamless sleep. He was 81 years of age.
A warm friend of the deceased fur
nishes the following tribute to the many
noble virtues and moral worth of the
departed:
PORT DEPOSIT ND. June 18th, '97.
1t is with great sorrow I write you that onr
mutual and much esteemed friend Col. Enoch |
Moves, has gone from midst. We who knew
him best will miss him most. My pen fails to |
admiration l had for him as man and comrade |
Comrade, yes, for he soldier of the first |
water served his country honestly and faithfully 1
for three long years as Captain in Connecticut |
regiment, most of the time in the unhealthy |
country of south west of the red river which |
undermined his constitution and did much |
towards causing his early demise. Yet all without
Il murmur, tor next to his God and family was the /
great love and veneration for his country and his
flag. He left us on the same day of the
week, Sunday, and about the same time of the
day that military discipline of long years gone by
him to call his COMPANY into line for
roll call and inspection, that he summoned |
to fall in line for roll call and inspection in the
great beyond, where he met many, very many, of
his brave comrades that had gone before. We
cannot help but think there was rejoicing there
But thank God he was not to be inspected and
Judged by worldly man but by the al-wise and
supreme commander God, our Heavenly Father.
Respectfully,

Our Is and....
....Other Eyes.

Our rs are just as strong as
they were fifty years ago, when
we have cause to use them.
But we have less and less cause
to praise ourselves, since others
do the praising, and we are
more than willing for you to see
US through other eyes. This
is how we look to S. F. Boyce,
wholesale and retail druggist,
Duluth, MINI, who after a
quarter of century of obser-
walton writes:
81 have sold Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla for more than rs years,
both at wholesale and retail,
and have never heard anything
but words of praise from my
customers; not a single COM
plant has ever reached me. 1
believe Ayers Sarsaparilla to
be the best blood purifier, that
has been introduced to the gen.
eral public" This, from a
man who has sold thousands of
dozens of Ayers Sarsaparilla,
is strong testimony. But it
only echoes popular sentiment
the world over, which has,
"Nothing but words of praise
for Ayers SarsaparilIa."
Any doubt about it? Send for" Curebook"
