OBITUARY..
After lingering illness of five
| months, Mrs. M. M. Corner, of Gray,
died August 4, 1903, of tuberculosis.
| Funeral services were held at the M.
| E. church of which she had been an
| active member for number of years.
She took great pride in her church
and only short time before her death
| she expressed a desire that it might
| be repaired and cleaned for fear some
| one might pass away. The church
was uGCOFdUSu ana many
beautiful floral tributes were sent.
| She was a great lover of flowers and
| during her sickness when her flowers
| began to fade she wondered where she
would get her next bOquet, but always
found new one to take the place of
| the faded one.
Brother Bennett talked very apprO-
| priately of "Mother. All her child
| rem and grandchildren were present
| at her bedside and about one O'Clock
Tuesday p. M, after speech had failed
| her, she motioned her aged mother.
husband and children to come to her
| one by one and bade them good bye
by lOvingingly carressing them and
tried so hard to talk to them. She
then rallied but as the sun was set
| ting in the beautiful west, she began
to fade and at nine O'Clock, slowly
closed her eyes, to open them in the
| presence of Jesus. She was laid to
| rest in the Cameron Center cemetery.
Melinda Minerva Lille was born in
Noble Co., Indiana, May 3, 1915 and
was married to Mathew Monroe Cor
ner, August "a, 1864 in Guthrie Co.
Eight children was born to them, five
surviving: Orien Corner, of Gray,
Yetta Kennels, of Jefferson, COrla
Baker, of Audubon, Frank Corner, of
Gray and Lois f. who is still at home.
Gentle mother, loving mother,
Santed mother, kind and true;
Resting now in peace with Jesus,
Loving hearts remember you.

Dysentery Cured Without the Aid of a
Doctor.

81 am just up from hard spell of
the hux" (dysentery) says Mr.. T. A.
Primer, a we'll known merchant, of
Drummond, Tenn. 81 used one small
bottle of Chamberlain Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy and was
cured without having a doctor. con-
slider it the best cholera medicine in
the world" There is no need of en-
ploying a doctor when this medicine
is used, for no doctor can prescribe a
better medicine for bowel complaint
in any form either for children or
adults. 1t never fails and is pleasant
to take. For sale by A: Fl. Roberts.

Uncle Sam Wants Smart Young Men.

The Civil Service Commission has
officially announced Examinations for
this fall to be held in every state.
Perhaps not since the Inauguration of
the Civil Service has there been so
many appointments made in the var
iOus departments of the service as
during the past year and the good
work is still going on; particularly is
this true in the Railway Mail, one of
the best paying positions coming un-
der the civil service rules. The pay
is good from the start with fine oppor-
tunities for promotion. Full particu-
lars may be secured by addressing the
Interstate Schools, Cedar Rapids,
Iowa. Their students receive the high
est grades and consequently the first
appointments. Their hundreds of
students now in the service testify to
the excellence of their work. 3lw4A
