Charles Walters.

New Berlin Reporter.
Charles Walters, one Of our oldest
residents, died rather unexpectedly at
the home of his son, James, on Front
Street Thursday morning, Dee. 6.
Mr.. Walters had been sick only n
short time with an ailment which was
not considered serious, but II gloom was
cast over the borough on Thursday
morning when the news was heralded
abroad that Chailes Walters had closed
his eyes to the world and was no more
His death was entirely unexpected and
without prcmonilion.
The subject of this sketch was born
in Jackson twp, Snyder county, Aug.
II, 1924. He was married to Miss
Martha Ann Harrison, n daughter OF
james Harrison who years ago was the
editor of II newspaper in this place.
This union was blessed with four emil
dren, three daughters and one son.
lnTctO Ol WlpIll uit llNihS' i-iihi' N',
the flrst-born, died at the age of seven
months. Those living are Mrs. Charles
Orwig, Hartleton; Mrs. Jones, Mala-
noy City; and James, of this place,
with whom the father had his home.
His wife died nearly four years ago.
The deceased has always been an in
dustrious, Woodworking man and n
good and useful citizen. He was held
in high esteem by all who'knew him.
The funeral took place last Saturday,
Rev. Shultz of the Evangelical church
officiating. His remains were laid to
rest in the New Berlin cemetery, there
to await the summons of Him who
said, ~ am the resurrection and the
life. He that believeth on me though
he be dead, yet shall live."

Cigarette Smokers Beware. =

A cigarette fiend at Marysville,
Kansas, has broken out all over with
little yellow spots, and the-e1ds of his
fingers and toes are sore. He Is. afraid
he caught the leprosy from the detes-
able cigarette. There were two cases
of the dreaded disease i'm Chicago, sup
posed to have been contracted from
cigarettes. 1t is thought the paper,
which mostly comes from China, has
been at some time handled by leper.
1t is awful to think about, yet every
day we see boys and men going around
with these bad smelling little things
between their lips. The law prohibit
ing the sale of cigarettes to children
under sixteen years Gfagc appears to he
Il dead letter in tfiS community. In
the state of Iow'. the sale of cigarettes
has been absolutely abolished ny the
legislature which has been upheld by
the supreme court.

Sunday, Dee. 16, 1900, was happy
day for the pastor and people Of the
Evangelical Lutheran church of Bea-
vcrtown. The joyous occasion was the
re-opening of their new beautiful and
comfortable church building.
This people have repaired and beau
titled their place of worship so that both
the outward and inward appearance is
very pleasing, and now they have a
good substantial church building.
The pastor, Rev. l. p. Zimmerman,
has been faithful in his work, and his
people have stood by him that does
credit to congregation.
After the morning sermon the pastor
made a financial statement, which
showed fifty-five dollars not provided
for.
The congregation was then asked to
make up their deficiency and in a
short time there was more than enough
given.
The church was then rededicated by
the pastor. This church is a part Ol
the Beaver Springs pastorate, the othel
church being at Adamsburg, which
was extensively repaired during thu
last year.
With botf church buildings modern
lied and beautified and no debt and
people united and disposed to stand b.
their efficient and energetic pastor, WI
bespeak for this charge prosperou
future. They have wise shephert
and he faithful flock. x

Abolish Stamp Taxes.

1t is easy enough to spend money il
is difficult to practice economy but
in the face of such figures the people
are showing disposition to ask their
Representatives to cut downa little, and
especially to abolish some of the war
taxes, which are not only unnecessarily
onerous, but which in themselves are
Il constant inconvcnicc and in some re-
spccts general nuisance. This is cs-
pccially true of the stamp taXcs-the
taxes on checks, public documents and
postal orders. If the present Congress
sheuld abolish few of these or all of
them, it would deserved better epitaph
than the average national legislature
receives after il ceases business on the
fourth of Mar.-Sdturiay EreninQ Post.

A Pleasant Visit.

For the Middleburg Posi-.
Saturday, Dec. Is, a number Of the
members of the Grace United Evange-

good time. So they took by surprise
their pastor, who is h o lding re-
vival services at their church, and
brought lot of good things to eat and
went to Centreville to the parsonage
and took possession of the kitchen.
They had sumptuous dinner which
we all enjoyed, but especially Mrs.
Aurand who Is an invalid and can not
go away from home. After social
time and prayer, they left for home
but left good time supply to keep SOU
and body together. Many thanks
