OBITUARY.

We were sorry to hear 1.-THE
sad news OF the death OF Mrs.
Lou Pace.
She died at her home near
Sp:nks, last Tuesday night, Jan.
the 14th, 1908. Her illness was
ot short duration, NOR of such
malignant form as to cause seri.
Gus apprehensions on the part of
her friends. In fact our last re.
ports We're to the effect that she
was much improved, and we en-,
tertained sanguine hopes of her
early recovery. But alas /! death
has claimed her as his own aud
another precious jewel has been
transferred that Celestial Home.
She was united in holy wedlock
laat January to Mr.. Dee Pace;
only one short year OF happy
married life was gwen them.
Then God called her to better
brighter world. She was laid to
rest ic Mt. Pleasant cemetery.
Sad were the many friends who
stood by weeping, knowing they
would see her no more ON earth,
|: Dee, a voice you lossd is stin,
A place is vacant in your home,
Which never can be filled.
Then sgrieve no more for your
dear,
Thogh you are lonely without
her here
A chain is broken which never
can be filled;
For death has claimed your
darling
Who is SO cold aud still.
After all we can offer no COM
fort, or consolation, or solace,
except to trust in Him, who lis
so good and SC merciful as to say
the He sis a very present help IN
trouble"
She leaves a husband, little
babe, and many friends aud rel
atives to mourn her loss.
We extend to the bereaved
family our deepest sympathies in
the hour OF their greatest afflic-
ton. A FRIEND.

TENDENCY OF THE TINES.

TENDENCY OF THE TIMES.
The tendency of medical science
Is toward preventive measures.
The best thought of tho world
is being given to the subject. II
is easier and better to prevent
than to cure. It has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia,
one OF the most dangerous dis
eases that medical men have to
contend with, can be prevented
by the use Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always
results from a cold or from an
attack OF influenza (grip), aud il
has been observed that this rem
edy eounteracts any tendency OF
these diseases toward pneumofia.
This has been fully proven: in
many thousands of cases in which
this remedy has been used during
the great prevalence of colds and
grip 10 recent yeurs, aud can be
relied upon with implicit con-
fidence. Pneumonia often re
suits from a slight cold when no
danger is apprehended until it Is
suddenly discovered that tqere is
fever and difficulty in breathing
and pains IN the chest, then it ia
announced that the patient has
pneumonia. Be on the safe side
and lake Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy as soon as the cold is
contracted. 1t always cures.

Every lady that wants to catch
any fsh this year had better get
ready and go, for Mr.. Virgil Teer

SNOWDEN'S PONIES
SEIZED IN POLO GAME
Deputy Sheriff an Official Specta-
tor OF Newport Function.

NEWPORT. r. l., Aug. 27.-The polo
ponies of c. Randolph Snowden, son of
Col. A. Loudon Snowden, of Philadelphia,
were attached for debt on the polo
grounds yesterday afternoon. and the
match between the first and second Bryn
Mawr teams. in which Mr. Snowden par
tieipated, progressed under the espionage
of Deputy Sheriff Clifford
The attachment was made at the in
stance of Thomas F. Martin, a Newport
blacksmith, who has a claim against Mr..
Snowden for IS for shoeing his ponies
when he was here in 1898
Martin says he has frequently sent the
bill to Mr.. Snowden, but without any pay
ment forthcoming. Mr.. Snowden's ponies
were placed in the hands of a keeper.
but it is believed he will settle the case
today.
Mr.. Snowden said that he never re-
ceived the bills of the blacksmith This
afternoon he rendered IS, the amount of
the face Of the claim. but in addition to
that the costs of the action. including
sherfff's fees and keepers charges. had
piled up equal to as much again as the
bill.

GIVES RUDE JOLT TO
RUBBER PROMOTERS

intended as An investment in itself
Some rubber has been taken from these
trees, but Mr.. Cook says they appear
TO be so rapidly on the decline, in con-
sequence of the tappings, that they do
not give promise OF bearing much
longer.
Seine of the companies soliciting stock
subscriptions to operate rubber compa-
MES state that they begin to tap after
four years. but Mr. Cook believes that
Will prove impracticable and says the
tree should not be touched until it is at
least eight years old The rubber taken
from very young trees is inferior to that
from those which are older, and tapping
at four years would not only injure the
trees, but produce low grade of caout-
chouc. Investors are spurred on by tales
of the great quantities of rubber OBJ
tanned from single trees, but those
trees were wild. were found far back
in the forests, and may have been more
than hundred years old
A few of the companies have taken up
coffee and other tropical plants in addi-
tion to rubber growing and have found
them more or less profitable, but il is
said the dividends so loudly heralded by
some companies are paid with the mon
ey obtained from new stock subscrip-
lions.
