IN HIS NAME

The giving of ones self to the fur
therance of any cause measures the ex-
tent to which human aid can go. There
are times when money avails nothing.
without the help of hands and the
sympathy of hearts.
a half mile east of this place, on the
Monticello road, and then quarter of
mile further on through Mr.. Fred j.
highlands place, there lives family
"of good repute" Four of the men,
bers of this family are sorely stricken
with pneumonia and grippe, the father
and mother being among the number.
Prostration on the part of the husband
meant to this family, dependent upon
daily wages for livelihood, a cessa-
tlon of all income. Day by day the
supplies of the larder grew less and
less; benevolent and kindly neighbors
assisted willingly; but at last when
the days began to lengthen into weeks,
they reported the family to pastor of
the town who readily came to their
aid and into whose willing hands
dropped contributions from every one
of the few who heard the story Sun
day night and Monday morning. That
evening two ladies of the Relief Com
mittee of the Baptist church invested
part of the money received 80. 75) in
groceries and drove out with their
burden, which became a blessing with
wings to the poor, stricken beings 50
helpless and full of suffering. Several
dollars were given into the hands of
MIR. Bristow, the sick man, and load
of wood was contributed by the city
marshal. What has been given will
last them few days and then, who
will help them further? The one we'll
woman, a sister of Mrs. BristOw, has
been up night and day for two weeks
waiting on the sick. The call comes
for some one to go out during the day
time to administer medicine and rem
der necessary aid. Who is there
among us who can go, or who will send
help to this stricken family?

We hear with deep regret of the
death of the only son of Mrs. Walter

widowed mother and two sisters. He
heroically struggled against that in
sidious destroyer, consumption, but at
last it seems he must give up his young
and beautiful life to the all too power
ful antagonist. Our sympathy abides
with the family.
