At Rest.

Grandma Hurt, mother of the Hurt
bows of this city and an old pioneer,
died at her home in this city Friday
night, Feb. %,
Mrs. Hurt was "A kind mother, a
faithful friend and an earnest chris
tian woman. She had been in feeble
health for long time. She reached
good ripe old age, and though her
early and middle life was beset with
many trials and sorrows, her declin-
ing years were spent in comfort and
ease.
Ever ready with kindly advice and
substantial assistance among her
neighbors in times Of need, Grand
ma Hurt will be missed by more than
her loving children, who mourn her
departure. The remains, after an
impressive funeral service at the
house, were quietly laid TO rest in

IT A K (
CARE

take care of the small things we are in
effect taking care of the large things
which the small things combine to make.
That is the philosophy of the old finan-
cial proverb, and its application is as
broad as human life.
Take care of what you eat, when you
eat, and how you eat, and your stomach
will take care of itself. But who takes
care of such trivial things? That is
why, someday, the majority of people
have to take care of the stomach. When
that day comes, there is no aid so effec-
tive in undoing the results of past care
lessness as DR.. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery 1t strengthens the stomach,
and restores the organs of digestion and
nutrition to a condition of healthy ac-

The strange disappearance of Miss
LYDIA Wagner, last Monday night, is
still a mystery. She and a young
lady friend went to church together.
They returned together to the other
girls home; Miss Wagner had but
three blocks 10 go from there alone.
She started, and all traces of her have

one advance a reasonable theory for

Constable Sam Manatt brought in
to town, from Virgil, Kan. the fore
part of the week, the notorious fifteen
year.old grass-widow, Crowel, and
Richard Butter, brother of the Builder
bound over to court recently.
This seems to be rather bad gang
and it looks very much like they are
all booked for the pen. A valuable
horse belonging to DR.. Barker disap-
peared about the time young Butler
and the grass-widow left and these
two are held under the charge OF
horse stealing.
Such total depravity as these peo-
pie have manifested deserves the Sc
verest punishment.

Eat Honey for Good Health.

Honey when diluted and used as a
wash Though an unpleasant and sticky
one), has always cured erysipelas. It
is also good for bruises and will draw
out Inflammation. 1t is also one of
the finest diets we can use for consti-
patton and for Indigestion. For dys-
pepsia there is nothing better. Discard
all other cheap sweets and use honey
in place of sugar and molasses. For
cold or cough, its value is too well
known, and If used with good judgment
1t is the most wholesome and cheapest
sweet we can use, and also beneficial
to good health.-Farm and Home.
