death Of my young friend, "Chess"
Ellington. For some years past ! had
seen much Of him when in Farmville,
and had learned TO know him quite

Of character. As the body wasted with
that dread disease, in presence OF which
love and skill alike stood helpless and
hopeless, he warmed towards his fellow
man and softened in spirit and manner.
We together often discussed many OF
the questions Of public concern and the
leading characters in charge, aud / al
ways found him accurate in his know
ledge Of them and charitable IN his
criticisms. He had decided convictions
for q young man whose character had
not fully matured, and for one Of limit.

Had his life been spared he would have
made a newspaper correspondent OF

greeting, and can only drop a tear to
his memory and place another howei

Foolish Mother,

Editor Herdid:-I spent a Light in
the home Ofs country merchant recent
ly and while sitting in the dining room
waiting for breakfast, a little girl Of
five summers came in and began 10
tease her mother for a cake. She got
one, and still another and yet another
until she had eaten just five common
"store cakes" before before breakfast.
At the table she minced away, but ate
nothing. Soon after the meal ended
she began 10 whine for candy, and the
foolish mother began TO yield. The
candy vas just as common as were the
cakes, and the attack was continued
during the day. In due time the child
will be without a stomach, OF one
capable Of digesting food, and the doc
tor will be called in TO prescribe for
dyspepsia, and while he is giving the
pills OF the powders, the mother will
be furnishing the cakes and the candy.
Result, premature death, Of IN unsound
mind in an unsound body, a wreck, a
blasted life. Why don't mother learn
to say no2 Say it and mean it, say it
and stick to it, say it and save the

sham the Saturday before, where he
had been for "A few DAYS with the hope
that the change would be u benefit 10
his serious condition. lie grew worse,
however, from the time he arrived, and
all the faithful care Of a loving wife and
the constant attention Of physicians
were without avail.
Mr.. Dupuy vas a native Of Prince

April, 1915, and educated at Hampden-
Sidney College. lie entered the Con-
federate army in June, 1863. and was

and made a most excellent record a. a
soldier.
He married Miss Nelia Booker, Of
Charlotte courtyard remained a resi-
dent of Prime Edward for years after
wards. He.served this county for two
terms in the State Legislature, and
was held in high esteem by members
Of both the Democratic and Repub-
lican parties as evidenced 10y his cleo
ton on the Democratic ticket at a time
when the Republicans held full sway
in Prince Edward a. well a. in the
entire black belt" Of Virginia. After
removing to Roanoke he sOO won his
way to prominence aud vas made the
postmaster of that thriving city under
Cleveland's administration. When re-
moved from that position 10y the Re
publicans he was sent from Roanoke
to the Legislature where ne served his
constituency faithfully and well. He
was noted for his kind heartedness and
large generosity and his death Is gener-
ally regretted At the time Of Mr.
DUpuy's death he was adjuiant in VIII
liam Watts Camp Confederate Veter--
ans.
The remains were brought to Farm
vile last Sunday morning in a specia
car furnished by the Norfolk and Yves
tern Railway Company, accompanied
by a number Of Roanoke hiends and
the family. The flag on the p%ostoilice
at Roanoke was 10y order Of the post
master, lowered to half-msst as a token
Of respect to the dead. There were a
number Of beautiful floral tributes,
one Of which was a cross furnished by
the employees Of the postOillce, who
were in the service under Mr.. Dupuy's
administration a. postmaster.
AT half past 5 O'Clock Sunday after
Don the remains were taken from the
special car at the foot Of Main street
and tenderly borne to the Presbyterian
church where short services were held
and afterwards a long procession fol-
lowed them to their last resting place
