is gone. Her gentle spirit is
with the angels, her tired body
is at rest. The wrinkled face
is smoothed with the touch of
death, the toll worn hands are
folded over the stilled heart and
the stiffened figure is eloquent
in it's inanimate repose. Mother
is gone but her memory is re-
vived by a thousand tender rec
objections. Her heavenly miss
ion is being perpetuated on earth
where bereaved hearts beat
painfully in their desolation,
where her influence for good is
the antithesis of the sorrow that
prevails because of her laying
down her burden of mortality
and taking up the robes of inn
mortality.

She a motherly mother, a wifely
wife and a burden bearer for
those she loved. There was no
sacrifice so great she would not
cheerfully make that her family
might be comfortable and hap

ing that she would not endure
it for the betterment of her
friends. There was no privation
so great she would willingly en-
dure it that others might profit.
She was a mother in all the term
implies, she was a woman in ev-
cry sense of the word.
"Mother was simple in her
thoughts, sympathetic in her
life and Godlike in her minis
trations. She had no ambitions
but to promote the happiness
and well-being of her husband
and children, no aim in life that
was not centered in their well
fare. Mother was for home
first and society afterwards.
She believed that society was
safe-guarded in the home and
not the home in society.
"She realized her duties &C
cording to the dictates of moth
er love and that is the cream OF
religion, the very essence of life
Itself. She performed her du.
ties as would a martyr of old
and yet she realized the supreme
1hanniness Of her life in her sac.

His Last Hope Realized

From the Sentinel, Gebo,
Mont. In the first opening of
Oklahoma to settlers in 1889,
the editor of this paper was
among the many seekers after
fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During
his travelling about and after
wards his camping upon his
claim, he encountered much
bad water, which, together with
the severe heat, gave him a
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's
Collie, 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 a few
minutes the dose was repeated.
The good effect of the medi-
cine was soon noticed and with
in an hour the patient was talk
ing his first sound sleep for a
fortnight. That one little bot
tie worked a complete cure and
he cannot help but feel CRATE
full. The season for bowel dis

Judges Should Not Accept

The recent acceptance by a
well-llnown New York judge Of
the presidency of a trust COM
pany has called forth a pointed
rebuke from the Bar association
of that city. At a largely at
tended meeting it, declared by
resolution that it is not in keep-
ing with the dignity of the
judiciary for judges to hold po-
sitions of Importance, either
actual or honorary, in private
corporations. Aside from the
question of professional ethics
involved it is of the most vital
and practical importance that

A Cruel Judae.

Philadelphia Inquirer: "The
fact that a member of the four

the judiciary should be above
suspicion. This fact was never
more self-evident than now. Is
sues affecting great commune
ties and great corporations are
pressing for settlement. The
thought is intolerable that
judges should be subject to even
remote influences that might
effect their attitude toward liti-
giants. 1t is too easy to imagine
how personal business associa-
tions might sway a judge who
should be so absolutely fearless

Philander r. Longfellow was
born in Davis county, Iowa, July
z, 1856, and was educated in the
Bloomfield Normal at Bloom
field in that state. Beginning
at the age of Is, he taught
school in his native town for six
years. In 1887 he began his news
paper career as editor and pro-
prietor of the Idalia (Colo.) Senti-
mel, later publishing the Wahoo
(Neb.) New Era. Two years ago
last October, Mr.. Longfellow came
to Mountain Home in the hope that
the climate would benefit his health,
which for time it did. On De-
cember last he purchased The Re-.
publican of this place, which he
continued to publish to the time Of
his death. His death has removed
one for whom the entire community
manifested the greatest respect and
esteem in life and in his death the
deepest sorrow.
