After his first great successes Mr..
W. S. Penley had to act in many
plays which somehow did not seem
to please the public. Some of these
he just kept alive by his brilliant
"gagging." On one occasion, when
a wretched play had been going for
some weeks in this manner, the con-
ceited young author came behind
and asked Mr.. Penley why he "gag-
ged" so much.
"The play will be all right" he
said, "if you will only speak my
lines quietly and wait for the
laugh"
To this Mr.. Penley replied prompt
ly: That's 'all very well fer you,
old man-you live in town, but, you
see, live in the country and have
to catch the 1915 from Waterlool"

IN THE LIGHT OF DEATH.

When all the wheels of life are running slow,
And all the fires of life are falling low
And hlckering to an end
Then, in deaths dawninS light, we seem to
know
What it all means-why things must happen so,
And not as we intend
thought to keep my own life good and fair
Now broken, blotched and ugly, 1t lies there
Spread like map in view.
made the blots, the blunders, everywhere,
The bitter disappointments in full share
The sorrows. old and new.
But, though fresh failures come with each
fresh day,
Though pain persists and will not pass away
Till life itself shall cease
Taught by this CLEAN of deaths keen search
ing ray
"No human life is whole b" I've learned to say,
but of Gods WHOLE piece"
Each individual life is not our own
TITS in Gods building just one little stone
Chiseled to fit one place.
Useless-not cut to shape, but left alone
Useful, II, when its proper place is known,
1t fits 1t, by Gods gracel
For through Gods temple rise in noble state
Smooth marble blocks Of wondrous weight
And polished pillars tall
But there are other stones, not smooth nor
great,
Seeming despised-thrown out-yet soon or
late,
Wanted, however small
So, if the Master Builder needs in me
A broken fragment only fit to be
A fragment, out of sight,
Still, in his house a stone-if even he has chosen
me for this use, ah, then l see
All thought wrong is right.

DUE WEST.

On Monday of last week the an
gel of death visited the happy
home of Mr.. Melvin Lacy and car
ried from it's portals the beloved
wife and mother. Mrs. Anna La
cy was in the 35th year of her age,
and had been a sufferer for two
years with bronchial troubles. but
bore all her sufferings with Chris
tian fortitude. She was blessed
with an amiable and affectionate
disposition. A few days before
her death she spoke of the happy
change soon to be hers, and said
if they knew how we'll she was
prepared for that peace and hap
piness waiting for her they would
not grieve. The community has
lost an obliging neighbor, the
church a faithful member, to
which she had belonged a number
of years. The funeral was con-
Quoted by Rev. D. J. Maddox. To
the husband and family we ex-
tend our heartfelt sympathy. 1t
will be remembered by many that
Mr.. and Mrs. Lacy were married
in Atlanta at the Cotton EXPOSE
ton several years ago. Her re-
mains were consigned to their last
resting place at New Salem ceme-
terry.
New Salem Baptist church has
changed it's day of meeting from
the second Sunday to the first.
Christmas is nearly here, and
many of the cotton fields still
white with the feecy staple. Very
little wheat sown.
AS the editors and all hands
(even the office devil) will take g
rest Christmas, we will not write
anymore for 1898. Will close by
wishing the editors and force and
the brother and sister correspon-
dents, including the 5000 happy
readers of the JOURNAL, a pleasant
Xmas and happy New Year.

The Nothingpess of 1t.

He had been to see her father.
1t is hardly necessary here to state
what the object of his visit was.
Whatever it was may be guessed
when the reader is apprised that the
visitor was 25 and the daughter of
the father was five years younger.
He had returned to her and she
had met him in fear and trembling,
for the youth was poor and their
hearts happiness depended upon
how much papa could be coaxed
into allowing them as a wedding
portion.
In fact, without that there was no
happiness, for happiness is scarcely
possible on ST. per week.
Ibid you see papas" she asked
timorously.
Eyes, darling" he replied.
"And he gave his CONSENT" she
asked with maiden eagerness.
He was silent.
what did he says" she asked,
grasping him by the coat sleeve.
Nothing"
"Nothing9" she exclaimed.
"Nothingi He must have made
some reply" she insisted.
He said nothing, I tell you" he
answered angrily.
1t was the first time she had ever
seen him thus and her heart sank.
She could not understand. The tears
came to her eyes and she put her
arms about his neck.
What did you ask him, Haroldf"
she inquired
/ asked him how much he was
going to give you when l married
you"
That was Harold's answer and she
knew then what Ler papa's reply
meant to them. -Somerville Jour-

And Save Endless Suf-
fering which Winter
Brings.

The most offensive of all dis
eases becomes moro intense as cold
weather approaches. In fact,
many who have been under treat
ment for so long, and during the
summer feel little discomfort from
the disease, are almost persuaded
that they have been cured. But
the first chilling blast of winter
proves that the disease is still with
them, and as the winter advances,
their Catarrh grows in severity.
Those who have felt only slight
touch of Catarrh may be sure that
only cold weather is needed to de-
velop the disease. What appears
to be only bad cold will prove
more difficult to cure than for
merly, and will return with more
frequency, until before long the
disease is fully developed.
''For years I suffered from a severe
ease of Catarrh, and took several kinds
of medicines and used various local ap-
plications, but they had no effect what
ever | was induced to try S. S. S.
(Swift's Specific) and after two months
l was perfectly well and have never
felt any effects of the disease since.

of prompt treatment for Catarrh.

The retiring Populist admins
tration of Kansas is going to
squeeze the orange as dry as pos
sible before they turn it over to
their successors, the Republicans.
They are going to call an extra
session of the legislature and pass
some bills that will give them
control of several of the state in
stitutions for the next two years.
To undo the work of the Populists
the Republicans would also have
to call an extra session, and they
would not dare to do that imme-
diately upon coming into office.

The New York World propounds
the following anti-expansion prob
lem:
The population of the United
States is about $1,000, 900. The
area is 1902 900 square miles.
We have therefore a population
of only about 20 persons to the
square mile. England has about
$40 and Belgium about $50. tostf1e
square mile.
If our country were as densely
populated as England and Bel
GUM it's people would number
nearly two billion, or about seven
times their actual number. Yet
England and Belgium are fairly
comfortable countries to live in.
With a population only one
twenty-seventh as dense as theirs,
have we not room enough within
our own borders to grow for CEN
turies to come, without seeking
territorial expansion.
