atfiiction with fortitude, never com.
planning and was always cheerful
when talking Of heaven and heavenly
things.
The river of death with its dark, silent current
Was washing the sands of the tide beaten shore
A convoy of angels were silently waiting
To bear the freed spirit of dear Grandma Ger
She sleeps now in death. How sweet is hel
slumber.
May from her life conflicts, temptations and
woes,
No letters of earth the freed spirit cucumber
And blessed are they who in Jesus repose
The star of her life has gone down for loved ones
No more will she cheer them in lifes dreary way
In heaven she'll give us a.joyful welcome,
When we have crossed over that dark, dreary
way.

A TYPICAL SOUTH AFRICAN
STORE

o. r. Larson, of Bay Villa, Sundays
River, Cape Colony, conducts a store
typical of South Africa, at which can
be purchased anything from the pro-
verbal needle to an anchor" This
store is situated in a valley nine
miles from the nearest railway station
and about twenty FIVE miles from the
nearest town. MI. Larson says: l
am favored with the custom of far
mers within a rs dius of thirty miles,
to many of whom / have supplied
ChamberlaIn's remedies. All testify
to their value IN household where a
doctors advice is almost out of the
question. Within one mile of my
store the population is perhaps sixty.
OF these, within the past twelve
months, no less than fourteen have
been absolutely cured by Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. This must
surely be a record" For sale at
