The Cleveland Children.

Some time ago the Washington cor
respondent of the Independent gave
description of Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland's
children, which, as it is absolutely true,
is worthy of reproduction.
"'nhe eldest of the little girls, Ruth,
is even at this time but 81 years old;
Esther, 81, and Marion will be 2 years
old next July. She is little rosy
checked blonde, and the prettiest Of
the three. No two children in family
are more alike, perhaps, than Ruth and
Esther Cleveland. Ruth is very much
like her mother, growing more and
more like Mrs. Cleveland in feature and
expression, and in disposition, family
friends declare, is her mother over
again Ruth has no frivolity in her
nature, but is quaint, thoughtful, con-
scientious, and though scarcely two
years older, shows care-taking re-
sponsibility for Esther that is pretty,
but sometimes amusing, for Esther is
the igh-spirited member of the fami-
ly, and possesses little will of her own.
In other words, Esther is neither polite
nor persuasive, and when she says, 4
won't that is the end of it, so far as
she is concerned. But to Ruth these
ultimatums are often source of anxiety
which leads her to smooth things over
IN a sisterly, peacemaking spirit. II
was soon after the kindergarten was
well going, and the dozen little pupils
were in their chairs one day, that Miss
Willard asked something of the class,
all acquiescing but Esther, who said,
Il won't do it. Ruth looked startled
and distressed, but this made no i'm
preston on Esther, who repeated hel
decision, Il won't do it. Then Rutl
turned her serious little face to theil
teacher, and, with half-persuasiv'
apology, said. 'Bnt, Miss Mary, i
ISN'T so bad as if she said, won't b.
good, is it9'
'In the dress of her little girls Mrs
Cleveland is as sensible as in othe
things, and their dress is simple ant
comfortable, with never sign of fin
lace or rich velvet, often seen on over
dressed children-no always of tn
rich, but those who can i'll afford tn
rexpense."

IN MEMORIAM.

Sue E. Swingle, daughter of Alfred
and Elizabeth Carr, and grand-daugh-
ter of Rev. James King, one Of the
pioneers of Methodistism in East Ten
nessee, was born Dec. 30, 1913; was
married to Wm. c. Swingle Dec. G,
1877, and fell asleep Sept. 30, 1897.
When sixteen years of age she was
converted and became member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South (;
and from that time to her death, her
life gave evidence of the Christ dwelling
in her heart.
She was of quiet, alfectionate and
almost timid disposition; her affections,
her ambitions, her efforts, centered in
her own home; yet many beyond that
immediate circle, felt the influence of
her quiet courage and thoughtful kind
ness. Her amiable and loving nature
attached to her very strongly and
tenderly large circle of brothers, sis
ters and other relatives; and beside
these, there were many others who
found in her true, unselfish friend.
To her husband she was wise and
faithful companion; a help-meet, in
deed; and she bound her children to
her by such manifold cords of tactful
tenderness and loving interest, that she
became to them their dearest friend
their confdante and adviser; their
model of all that was true, beautiful
and desirable in character. I do not
think the two sons and the daughter
can ever forget the teachings of that
mother who counted no labor too hard,
and no sacrifice too great if it added to
the comfort happiness or moral up
building of those she loved,
Having borne the cares and perform
ed the duties of life with cheerful cour-
age, she tainted not when her Father
laid upon her the chastening hand OF
sore affliction; and when death came
he found her tranquil and resigned
resting in Him who is deaths con-
queror. Her loved ones, present and
absent, were, every one, remembered
in words of tender love. To her hus-
bRnd's parents she left a message OF
grateful acknowledgement for their
kindness toward her since her marri-
age; then she gathered husband and
children about her bed, gave them
wise counsel, comforted and soothed
their sorrow, and commended each to
the others loving care, and all to the
care of Him who will never leave nor
forsake; and ere "the sunset gates un-
barred" her spirit had passed from hel
home on earth to her home in heaven.

Do not depend upon snuffs, inhalants
or other local applications. Catarrh is
q constitutional disease, and can be
successfully treated only by means of a
constitutional remedy like Hoods Sar-
saparilla. which thoroughly purifies the
blood and removes the scrofulous taints
which cause catarrh. The great num-
ber of testimonials from those who have
been cured Of eatarrh, by Hoods Sar-
saparilla prove the unequalled power Of
this medicine to conquer this disease.
If troubled with catarrh give Hoods
Sarsaparilla a fair trial at once.

CUTTING AFFRAY
In Which VIII Roller, of KingspOrt, Was
Seriously Injured.

Bristol, Tenn. Nov. ia telephone
message received this morning from
Kingsport, Tenn, near the Sullivan
and Hawkins county lines, gave the de-
tails of terrible cutting affray there
at a late hour last night. 1t appeara
from the word received that Will Roll
er. a storekeeper and an influential
farmer of Kingsport, and hired man
named Tip Crawford a rather tough in
dividual, become involved in quarrel
over an account. There were ten or
twelve men standing in the store room
and the stabbing was done so suddenly
that few present realized what had
occurred, until they saw the blood flow
ing from two ghastly wounds in Roll
er's body. Crawford, it seems, had a
knife up his coat sleeve and when Roll
er disputed his statement Crawford
threw his arm around Roller and then
walked rapidly out of the store. Upon
examination it was found that Roller
had been struck below the left shoul-
der blade twice. One wound was three
inches wide and one and half inches
long; the other was one and One-hali
by one and one-half The wounds are
painful and the unfortunate man is
dangerously if not fatally wounded.
Crawford is still at large, and is
thought to be in the region of Bay
