reached heaven. With a tar away
look in her eyes and her lips parted
in a smile, she answered, "PIl sho'
do dat, an her must come, too"
In her las days these white child
rem Of hers. saw that she had every
comfort. Had they done otherwise
it would have been base ingratitude.
Her idea Of heaven was unique; she
thought when she reached that bet
ter land that she would sit on the
veranda in mahogany rocking
chair with a "permiter fan in her
hand and jes' res'." The religious
experience OF "mammy" was va
ried. She bad enjoyed every form
OF baptism known TO christianity.
She preferred the Baptist and Metho-
diet churches, and divided her time
equally between the two; her Oh
lection to the Presbyterian church
was that they "believed In dancing
and sprlnkling," She was a great
singer, and In her enthusiasm she
would make the welkin ring with,
"Come long, true believer; come
'lopg!'
She had been heard to brag that
she had never received q lick in her
life, and that the "patrollers had
never caught her, no not once. This
faithful old creature bad In her day
rocked SO many children TO sleep.
1t was an old chair that she used

1t had rocked the whole family
eleven children. In this chair she
would sit, rocking back and forth,
holding child so tenderly IN her
capacious arms singing,

Oh, go to sleepy little baby

And ride q little white horsey.
Oh, what q chair that wasl So
different, entirely different from any
other chair! For many year that
old chair has ceased TO rock Per-
haps it is in the loft or in the garrett,
Wherever it is, memory calls TO
mind the loving old nurse Of the
long ago! Bnt these trustful SER
wants with their love for their own
ers have forever passed away from
the land of the dear old South.

Mosely Hall team walked upon the
diamond defying the scorchiDg rays
Of the hot sun while the umpire,
Matt Thornton, hoisted bis umbrella
and stood beneath its shade while he
called strikes, balls, out and safe.
As baseball game the exhibition
was not much, but as a fun producer
it was a screaming success, Seven
innings only we're played, and the
Mosely Hall boys succeeded in cross
ing the home plate ten times while
Madison, doing the best they could,
only made seven runs. The town
boys think they can "do" their adj
versaries and a return game at
Mosely Hall was arranged to be
played on a day to be agreed upon.

HIS Last hope Realized,

In the first opening Of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1880, the editor Of this paper
was among the many seekers after for
tune who made the big race one fine day
In. April. During his travelling about
and afterwards his camping upon bis
claim, he encountered much bad water,
which, together with the severe heat,
gave him very severe diarrhoea which
it seemed almost impossible to check,
and along in June the case became so
bad he expected to die. One day one OF
his neighbors brought him one small
bottle Of Chamberlain Cole, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope
A big dose was given him while he was
rolling about on the ground in great
agony. and in few minutes the dose
Was repeated. The good effect OF the
medicine was soon noticed and WITHIN
an hour the patient was taking his hrst
sound sleep for fortnight. That one
little bottle worked complete cure
