IN MEMORIAM,

On the evening of the 23rd inst,
the Death Angel entered the home
of our esteemed friends, Mr. and
Mrs J n McEachern in Atlanta,
and took away one of their little
daughters, Miss Florine, aged five
gears and seven months. Little
Miss Florlne was all unusually
bright and sweet child, possessing
all the characteristics of most
amiable little darling much loved
by all who knew her. Even at so
early an age she was regular at
tendant in> Sunday School and
was much beloved by her teacher,
Mrs Foster, and her thirty class
mates The little body was
brought to Macland and inferred
i'll the Macland cemetery at II
o'clock, Feb. 26th. The funeral
services were conducted by Rev.
Mr. johnson, at her home, ia
Oglethorpe Avenue. Atlanta, on
the evening of the 25th and also
at the church and cemetery. A
large concourse of people attend
ed the services, a host of friends
and relatives from Powder Springs
and Atlanta, showing the high re-
gard il which the deceased and
her parents are held.
We tender our deepest sympa-
thles to the sorely bereayed pa
rents, relatives and friends.
No, weep not for dear sweet lit
tie Florine. She has gone to that
far away home where Angel hands
will attend her and where no
chilling winds nor sufferings await
her. She is not dead but sleeps
that peaceful sleep that knows no
waking.
Dear Florine is gone but not alb
sent, and she awaits our coming
to that Haven Land.
Peacefully sleep sweet Florlne,
and may Angels ever watch over
thy little couch.
j Greer.

ALL IN THE BRINGING UP.
Why There Should Be No Such Thing
as an Accident.

Why There Should Be No Such Thing
as an Accident.
did it ever occur to you that there
was no such thing in this world as
an accident" inquired the careful
man. Just think it over little, and
my remark won't seem as queer as 1t
sounds.
"As far back as can remember my
father preached this doctrine to my
brother and myself, and while often
thought him harsh at the time, have
realized since that he gave us the
most useful bringing up that boys
could possible receive. Fathers
theories were not confined to what are
usually called accidents among chill
dren, such as splitting things and
breaking articles. If he ever saw us
stub our toes he punished US for 1t.
He wouldn't listen to such an excuse
as that 1t was an accident. He would
say that We should have looked where
We were stepping.
This early training was OF the
greatest benefit to both my brother
and myself. 1t got us into the habit
of always sizing up a thing before
hand, no matter how trivial II might
seem, and in the battle Of life this
gave us a great advantage over the
other fellows, who failed through
proper foresight, and then went around
looking for sympathy by saying they
would have succeeded in their venture
II 1t hadn't been for an accident"
