TASTED FORTY A Y
Miss Mary p. Stewart Dies at Her
Brothers Home In Barnard.

Miss Mary p. Stewart died at the resi-
dence OF her brother, AFRO b. Stewart, II
Barnard on Sunday, July u. On thu
Thursday previous, July 9, she ended a a
days fast, living only a short time afteI
beginning to take food again.
On May 30, while living in Mansfield
Ohio, she decided for some unexplained
reason to begin a 40 days fast and taxi
nothing blu water, believing she was in
the hands of the Lord, and that He woulc
carry her through all right and build hel
up again as good as new.
The most interesting part Of the story il
that, after fasting 80 days, she decided tc
visit her brother in Barnard, and accord
ingly she took a sleeper from Mansfield.
o., on June %, and arrived at White River
Junction on July l and from there went
by team 10 her brothers in Barnard on
the same day. She refused all food and
would not allow a doctor to be called. saw
ing the Lord would take care of her.
The writer had the privilege of visiting
her on July 4, and she seemed pleased TO
see an old friend. Although very much
emaciated and weakened, Of course. she
walked about the roc some. On the 9th
the writer called on her again and found
her in a chair in the sitting room. She
said the 40 days would be up on Thursday.
the 9th; then she would begin to gain
strength.
Wishing to see what was the effect of
something more nourishing thar water,
the writer called on her again July 9. She
had taken a very little weak coffee made
from bread toast, and it was not surpris-
ing to find her in bed much weakened,
but she answered questions in a rational
manner.
Miss Stewart failed rapidly after Thurs
day and passed away Sunday evening. A
Woodstock physician had been consulted
by her brother during the previous week,
but any attempt to render medical aid
was not thought advisable. In the physi-
clans opinion she was undoubtedly in
sane, at least on the subject Of fasting, and
any interference with her might make
matters worse.
Tue writer remembers Miss Stewart
well as a student at the school ON Locust
creek in Barnard over so years ago, when
she was far in advance OF the average Of
scholars. Afterwards she studied at New
bury seminary, then passed many years as
a teacher In the Southern states, and later
in life became interested in missionary
and Bible work, giving nearly all her
earnings for charitable purposes. Hers
a useful and interesting life and filled
with many deeds of -benevolence and
kindness.
This case, which is quite remarkable in
many ways, reminds the writer OF DR..
similar experiment many years
ago. which excited such general interest
and was successful the doctor living for
years after a fast OF 40 days.-lW oodstock

LIFE

The poets exclamation: CO.,
Life! I feel thee bounding in my
VEINS" is a joyous one. Persons
that can rarely or never make it, in
honesty to themselves, are among
the most unfortunate. They do not
live, but exist; for to live implies
more than to be. To live is to be
well and strong-to arise feeling
equal to the ordinary duties of the
day, and to retire not overcome
them-to feel life bounding in the
veins. A medicine that has made
thousands of people, men and wo-
men, we'll and strong, has accom-
plished a great work, bestowing the
richest blessings, and that medicine
is Hoods Sarsaparrilla. The weak,
rundown, or debilitated, from any
cause, should not fail to take it. It
builds up the whole system, changes
existence into life, and makes life
more Astounding. We are glad to
saw these words in its favor to the
readers of our columns.

NO SUNDAY CONCERTS.
STRONG PROTEST FROM
PASTORS.
The Board of Aldermen Will Doubt
less Pass Ar Ordinance Regu-
lating Park Pavilion
Concerts.

DEAR ARGUs:-In your report of
the proceedings of the meeting Of the
Board of Aldermen last week, it. is
stated that an appropriation was
made for the erection of a bandstand,
or pavilion in our increasingly beau
tiful park. And, that this stand is
to be used by the Goldsboro orches-
ira, who are willing to and have Of
fered to give a concert every Sunday
afternoon, 'if they are given a pavil-
ion to play in" To the erection of
pavilion, or band-stand we have no
objections. It may be a very proper
thing upon which to expend some
portion of the city's money. We
fully realize that on many occasions
it would be a great convenience to
have such a pavilion. But against
its use for Sunday afternoon concerts
we do most decidedly object, and we
enter our solemn protest against any
such violation of the law of the Sab
bath.
We would fain believe that under
the pressure of important business,
the Aldermen failed to realize that
the appropriation was to promote the
introduction of Sunday concerts, and
SO increase Sabbath dissertation
among us. For it means the turn
ing of Gods gift Of the Sabbath as a
Holy Day, into a holiday for mans
pleasure.
We have no desire to see the Con-
tinental Sunday, with its revelries
and drunkenness, its moral degrade
tons and even antagonisms, intro
duced into fair Southland. Sum
day concerts, with their invariable
attendants can never be brought in
to harmony with the Divine Law.

keep it holy"
