Killing His First Man.

The killing of a brother-man, even
in battle, is painful thing to remem-
Der. A soldier of the late war thus
wildly describes his first experience :
"My first man saw but twenty
seconds, but I shall remember him
forever. was standing by my gun
when a Confederate infantryman
rushed up.
81 whipped out my revolver and
took him through the breast. He
tossed up his arms, gave me the
strangest look in the world, and fell
forward upon his face. He had blue
eyes, brown curling hair. dark mus
tache, and a handsome face.
II thought the instant fired that
I should have loved that man if l
had known him. l tell you this war
is terrible business"

people.
1.-THE Afreedee in question was one
of those turncoats. He stood one
morning behind rock, hopping about
with great activity, and firing shot
after shot at figure in the distance.
"'Can you hit that mann said the
officer, drawing near.
"No, sir, answered the Afreedee.

you come into it as a worker or
a scholar.
First. We will have the sing
ing Of popular hymns that ego

minute study of the Sunday
school lesson. It's about "Eli-
sha at Dothan," 2 Kings 6:8-23.
q ask every teacher to m axe

the lesson tonight at prayer
meeting.)
Third. We will have a short
but good program conducted
by Mrs. Green.
Fourth. The pastor will make
a brief talk.
You won't be asked any
questions or put in any UNI

keep a nickel or a dime in a
handy corner of your pocket

Now We'll count on you. The
children are helped by seeing a
good crowd, and it encourages
the teachers, who give So Sum

There was no prayer meeting
here last Wednesday night, on
account of rain, and we expect
a big turnout next Wednesday
night.
In Sleepy Hollow they are
rejoicing over the securing sew
eral premiums at the Co. Fair;
| think Coles Hollow will have
to compete. The way to do SO,
is to commence in the fall by
selecting the right kind of seed
and then put them in right in
the spring.
Oh my, but the crows are nu-
merous aroun here, no one will
shoot them, and they increase
in a compound rate, and the
question is: what good will they
keep on multiplying? They al
ways take their rent in the corn
fields. One of my neighbols
had a pet crow, and every time
he moved his mouth would fly
open, and he never could fill it,
and such a mouth! two-thirds as
big as its body-he got tired of
his pet and it died.
Henry Mendelco says where
he was in South Dakota it has
been very dry this summer, and
hay is So, per ton.
1t is a wonder why farmers
set out so many summer apple,
and so few winter apples. l am
reversing this rule by setting
out the winter, as there will al
ways be a demand for winter
apples at good price.
Farmers are gathering their
corn, apples, pumpkins, and put
ting the fruit in the cellars.

pERILS OF LAND AND SEA
Captain Wii!nef's Remarkable
Escape Shows What to Dc in
Time Of Trouble.

y lslC VI AiOuUlGs
For many years, Captain Will
nef, says the Times of Glouces-
ter, Mass, was one of the best
known seamen in the Glouces-
ter Fleet. The catarrhal
troubles with which he suffered
for fifteen years made him
dread the nights at sea, being
unable to lie down and sleep on
account of the constant catarrh-
al dropping.
Captain Willnef went to two
different hospitals for treat
ment, but could get no lasting
benefit. He constantly raised
yellow and green phlegm and
his trouble became so unbear-
able and nauseating that he
was ashamed to go out IN COM
pany. When dispairingo ever
getting relief his wife pur-
chased a Hyomei outfit for him
and trying it before going to
bed, he enjoyed the first whole
nights sleep for ten years.
Captain Willnef says 81 have
used less than two bottles of
Hyomei and have been cured
by the remedy. Hyomei kills
the germs of cattarrh and makes
lasting and permanent cures.
Elliott & Harvey sell Hyomei
under their personal guarantee
to refund the money if it does
not give quick relief.
