Cherry PeCtOraI

the most effective remedy for coughs
of every kind and in every stage.
One of the most annoying coughs is
q throat cough, where you have that
constant tickling in your throat. 1t
comes on worse at night, keeps you
awake, and makes you have that
smothered feeling in the chest. 1t
hardly seems possible what one dose
of Cherry Pectoral will do for this
kind of a cough, it brings such marked
relief.
Put up in large and small bottles.
When the cough gets down deep in
the chest and the lungs are painful,
put one of Ayers Cherry Pectoral
Plasters directly over the tender lung.
1t will draw out all the soreness.

THE PHILIPPINES CIVIL DUTY.
Preference Will Be Given Natives
and Discharged Soldiers.

From Curtis Washington Letter.
People between IS and 40 years of
age who are ambitious to enter the
government service in the Philippine
Islands can apply to the commission
ers of the civil service at Washington
and present themselves for examina-
ton at Washington on the 9th day
of April next The commissioners,
however, advise Americans not to
seek these positions unless they have
special technical or scientific qualifi-
cations. The first preference will be
given to natives of the Philippine Is
lands in all appointments; second, to
honorably discharged soldiers, sailors
and marines. and hence ordinary ap-
plicants will not stand much chance
except for such positions as steno-
graphers, typewriters, interpreters,
translators and book-keepers
The civil service in the Philippine
islands is under rules quite as severe
as that of the federal government and
the merit system will be strictly en-
forced, original appointments being
made only after competitive examina-
ton and promotions upon evidence ct
efficiency after experience. No po-
litical Endorsements are necessary.
Preference. as l have said, is in all
cases to be given to natives.
Persons in the United States who
are appointed will be required to pay
their travelling expenses from their
places of residence in the United
States to San Francisco. but their
travelling expenses from San Francis
co to Manila will be borne by the in
sular government, and they win be al
lowed half salary from the date Of
embarkation at San Francisco and
fun salary from the date of their ar
rival in the islands. provided they pro-
coed directly to the islands: otherwise
half salary will be allowed only for
such time as is ordinarily required to
make the journey between the points
named. A person employed in the

While Jack Guard was at the resi-

he saw out in the bay a canoe with the

pulled out for mile and after con-

Der was an old man who was entirely

of twenty-five and boy of fifteen. The
latter was almost exhausted when he
was lifted into the boat.
It seems that the party had been
fishing during the day and met with
good luck. They came to town, dis
posed of their catch and then pro-
ceeded to purchase supplies of grocer
les and other things. The cargo in
the canoe was what caused the acct
dent. Mr.. Rose kept the men at his

Once more have we been re minded of the uncertainty of life and certainty of death by the Grim Reaper visiting the home of MT w. H. White, of Center Point and claiming for his victim Miss Geor- gie.
 She was born June IS, 1881, and died July IT. At the age of B she professed religion and joined the NJ. F. Church, South, of which she live a consistent member until her death. Before she died she called her twin sister and father to her bedside and told them that she was ready to die and that she was happy in the thought of joining her mother and sister ill heaven. She seemed willing to die and when death came she closed her eyes and fell asleep ill Jesus. I Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep Y From which none wake to weep.
 Her remains were inferred in | Cypress Valley Cemetery on July I2, the services being conducted by Allen White, her cousin The funeral was attended by host of friends of the family.
 We offer condolence to the be- reaved family and point them to Him who causes all things to work together for the best. He alone can take away their sorrow and bind up their broken hearts.
