A GOOD MAN GONE.

All that was mortal of VERNON
SMITH was laid to rest on Saturday
morning, the 9th, in the family bury
ing ground two miles east of Brook
haven. He was born Dec. LIST, 1871. in
the same room which has been his
home almost his entire life, and in
which he died on Friday morning the
Sth) at six o'clock, after painful ill.
ness of nine months.
He was loved and honored by all
who knew him-a natural leader in
his community and noted for his up
right and moral character. One of
his sons was heard to say, Il never
heard Father speak evil of any one"
He was faithful soldier during the
sixties" and stood in the forefront
until our flag went down mid the
smoke of battle in '65.
He united with the Union Hall Bap-
fist church Aug. 18th, 1888, and was
baptized by Bro. J. A. Scarborough.
who was their pastor. Since then he has
been one of her faithful and trusted
leaders. He will be greatly missed in
the church, in the Sunday school, in
the community; and what shall be
said of the home? for he leaves a
faithful wife, one daughter and six
sons, who will watch and wait, as the
years roll on, but he will not come
back, for the gates of the "City gold
en-" we're opened to him and he went
In to be with Jesus. "Then sorrow
not as those who have no hope" But
be thou ready that the welcome plaud-
its may be thine, ENTER thou into the
JOY of thy Lord"

The stomach controls the situation.
Those who are hearty and strong are
those who can eat and digest plenty OF
food. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure digests
what you eat and allows you to eat all
the good food you want. If you suffer
from indigestion, heartburn, belchlng
or any other stomach trouble, this
preparation can't help but do you
good. The most sensitive stomach can
take it. C. E. Grafton Drug Co.
