important sessions of this court in he
matter of convictions.
Among the important cases was the con-

1t is a case which attracted a great deal
Of attention all over the county, as the

years.

VIRGINIA LEE HAMILTON

bad as 1t is, It might be worse. The
Almighty loves us. despite His chastise-
ment Be true to Him. He will not desert
you" Thus wrote Virginia Lee Hamilton,
not a very long while before she left earth
for heaven. Cut off in the flower of youth,
when life seemed brightest she met death
with a spirit of resignation to the will Of
Him who ordereth all things right AS
dutiful daughter, a loving sister, faith
full friend and a consistent Christian, she
Is mourned by all who knew her. OF a
bright, intelligence a kindly disposition,
and a singularly sympathetic nature, her
friends were many; and altho' reserved and
of a strongly self-rehant character, her
life was constantly beautihed by acts of
unostentatious charity to those whose
needs were brought to her notice. No Gu
logy could exaggerate her kindness of
heart and she was uniformly loved by rich
and poor alike. But she is gone from
hence, and to-day we are mourning her
loss. for
while the beauty of summer was melting
away
Like rose tinted sky at the closing of
day.
And the bright fragrant flowers were fad
ing from view,
AS morning stars fade in their ocean of
blue,
Her pure, gentle spirit was beckoned from
earth
it's birth,
Leaving only a casket of clay for the tomb
And a memory dear for the loved one in
gloom:
"To the poor and the lowly she came as
light
That dispels the deep gloom of long star
less night:
And the Widows sad story the orphans
sweet prayer
Were in vain never told to her listening
ear:
For they touched her kind heart with a
music divine.
Like the voices of angels round charities
shrine
And the anguished and stricken grew joy
Gus the while
In the wealth of her love, and the warmth
of her smile.
when bright summer comes forth in her
beauty again,
And sweet flowers are blooming on hill
side and plain,
When the azure skies glow in the suns
dawnng light,
And the stars of the morning are fading
from sight,
In the beauty. the fragrance, the light of
that day
] Her blest spirit exalted, will dwell far
away,
Where Sunshine, nor flowers, nor beauty
shall fade,
While she dreamlessly sleeps meath Bona
! ventures shade"

FACTS ABOUT HEALTH

II is Easy to Keep Wen if We Know
How Some of the Conditions Neces-
sary to Perfect Health.
The Importance Of maintaining good
health is easily understood, and it is
really simple matter If we take a cor
rect view of the conditions required.
In perfect health the stomach promptly
digests food. The blood is employed to
carry nourishment to the organs, nerves,
muscles and tissues which need it.
The first great essential for good health,
therefore, is pure, rich blood. No medi-
cine has uch a record OF cures as Hoods
Sarsaparilla and it is because it is the one
true blood purifier. Hundreds of people
are alive and well today who would have
been in their graves had they not taken
Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t is depended upon
as a family medicine by thousands.
