The Morning Star Sunday
School,.

In June of the year just gone by,
there met ON Powell's river at the
school house which is about one-half
mile southwest of the tannery, some
twenty or thirty souls for the purpose
of organizing Sunday School. The
school was organized, superintendent,
officers and teachers elected and set
to work through great difficulties;
there being some present wished to
totally discard literature and have
nothing but the Bible with no helps,
even for the little ones.
The vote was taken and the major
ity voted for literature. more specially
for the children, whereupon small
minority withdrew from the school.
The little school went to work in
earnest and kept growing and pros
pering. 1t had nice little picnic in
the beautiful Autumn days.
Like the morning star the little
school arose in the dawn Of the warm
Summer weather, sent forth its
twinkling rays of light throughout
the beautiful summer and fall, and
closed with the bleak chilling waves
of late December. Appropriate to
the occasion and for lack of better
name we will call it the Morning
Star Sunday School.
The school had nice little Christ
mas tree on Christmas Day with a
candy and peanut treat for everybody
there, and presents on the tree for the
attentive pupils, besides dozens of
presents put Oh for friends and reIa-

What We Eat

Is intended to nourish' and sustain us,
but it must be digested and assimilated
before it can do this. In other words, the
nourishment contained in food must be
separated by the digestive organs from
the waste materials and must be carried
by the blood to all parts Of the body. We
believe the reason tor the great benefit
which so many people derive from Hood
Sarsaparilla lies in the fact that this
medicine gives good digestion aud makes
pure, rich blood. Itrestores the functions
of those organs which convert food into
nourisbment that gives strength to nerves
and mucles. 1t also cures dyspepsia,
scrofula, salt rheum, boils, sores, pimples
and eruptions, catarrh, rheumatism and
all diseases tina. have their origin In i'm
pure blood.

they will transact important business
with Uncle Sans commission of rev.

persons, with keen legal insights,
hence the selection of these two dis

involved will be safely and satisfacto-
rily adjusted, since it is in the hands
of these two honorable and capable

BADLY INJURED
While Working in Lime Quarry
Near Here.

Kennedy Cole. workman in the
Lime Quarry near here, met with a
sad accident on last Thursday, which
resulted in the loss of his right arm.
The men we're at work blasting the
rock and had fired small shot pre-
paratory to putting in large dyna-
mite for a blast. After the small
shot had been fired Mr.. Cole COM
menced to put in the dynamite and
tamping it for the blast and had put
in several sticks when, it exploded,
SCATTERING his right arm to pieces and
burning and otherwise injuring his
face. SO bad was his arm mangled
that amputation was necessary and
the arm was taken off the same day
by DIS. Kelly and Edmuhds.
1t is supposed that the hole in
which Mr. Cole was putting the dyna-
mite had not cooled sufficiently from
the heat Of the previous shot, was
the cause of explosion. No other
person was injured. 49,
Mr.. Cole was man aged thirty
FIVE or forty and came here with his
wife from Tennessee some time ago,
and for time worked at the tannery.
At this writing he is getting along
very well and will recover.
The entire community sympathize
with him in his sad misfortune.

Farmville'S Normal School.

Captain John w. Todd, member
of the Legislature from Augusta coun-
ty. has introduced a bill in the House

education of young women OF the
State.
The bill provides for an annual
appropriation of $1,000, to be ex-
pended in educating 100 young WON
en- at the State Female Normal
School at Farmville. The cost OF
one years board and tuition OF girl
at the School is 800. The bill pro-
poses to pay half the sum every year
for three years. The Board Of Trus-
tees is to have the appointive power.
One girl is to be appointed from each
county in the State. II for any rea-
son a scholarship becomes vacant

saw how old she may be. No pro-
vision is made for the appointment

girls educated by the State have
to bind themselves to teach in the
Virginia public schools for six years.
The bill has the hearty endorse
lnent of DR.. Frayser, and also OF DR..
