and I won't let you make It any worse
for him.. I owe hat horse like a brother
and now I'll take care of him."
And 1t was not until a police sergeant
with a lot OF gold braid came up and
told the driver how easy It would be to
move the horse without hurting him
that the driver consented to let the
crowd SDll the animal over on his other
side.
That cleared the tracks. and as the
cars were hurrying by a veterinarian

Newspaper Going Up.

For two or three years now ra w
paper has been steadily advancing.
It is more than one hundred per cent
higher today than it was three years
ago. The hardship is great on all
newspaper publishers, particularly
on local papers whose margins of
profit, if any, are small. Notwith-
standing the steady advance in this
raw material and all material used
in printing Office, and the incl ease
in cost of living, country publishers
have not increased their subscription
rates.
That the country publisher is not
the only one that feels rebellious
may be seen by the following resolu-
tions adopted at meeting of the
American Publishers:
"That the American Newspaper Pub
fishers Association request the President
OF the United States and the Attorney
General TO institute a suit against any OF
the three paper combinations to test the
legality of their existence, and whether
they do not stifie competition"

IN MEMORIAM,

Little did | expect, when left home
early on the morning of the Sth to visit
my brother, at Lynham's, to transact
some business Tor him, that on my arri-
val there would be greeted with, "Joe
is dead" Nevertheless, l was compelled
to embrace the fact that he had quietly
passed away at 3 o'clock that morning.
Only two weeks before | had bid him
goodbye and assured him would come
again soon, but never dreaming that the
next time would be to pay the last
tribute,
realised his condition was precarious,
as that dread disease, tuberculosis, had
fastened itself upon him and was sap
ping his life away. Still, had hope, as
all that medical skill and loving hands
could do was being done, but alasl all
this was OF no avail. The Ruler of All
servants to his reward.
John Andrew Joseph Rock was born
December %, 1874. Early in life he
became a member Of Kilmarnock Bap-
list church, and since has been an
earnest worker in his Masters vineyard.
How well he had kept his pledge was
pictured in the smile with which he
bid farewell TO those who stood around
him as he stepped across the river to
meet mother and other loved ones gone
before.
After funeral services in Kilmarnock
church by Rev. f. W. Claybrook, the
Kilmarnock Council, No. 1877, Jr. o. u,
A. NJ, of which he was q member, with
appropriate ceremony gently laid him to
rest by the side OF his mother in the cem-
otery adjoining the church.
Less than two years ago he married
Miss Virginia Olive Mayo, of Gloucester
county, and while he suffered untold
agonies for three months past, she was
ever by his side and did much to ALE
viate his pains. He often said, 'She il a
God-send." She was always cheerful
and bright, always willing and anxious
to do anything in her power for his COM
fort. Thus she stood by him until the
last spark of life had vanished. This
affection and faithfulness will ever be
remembered by his BROTHER.

people, who are kept in this condi-
ton principally by the condition of
their highways. In their selfishness
these papers advocate immense appro-
priations for river and harbor i'm
proyements, because they get direct
benefit, and yet they squeal with
alarm when a mere pittance in COM
parison is sought to be appropriated
where all the people will get direct
benefit. In our Judgment the pro-
posed measure is not only advisable
and just, but it is an absolute neces-
sity, aud it's contamination will mark
an era of prosperity such as this
country has never enjoyed before.
In our judgment good public high
ways throughout the country will
never be an accomplished fact until
the work is undertaken by the CO.
operative efforts of Nation, States
and counties, but the appropriation
of the U. s. Government, instead of
being at the rates of $10,O00,000 a
year should be at least $25, 100000,
and this could be accomplished with
out any additional burden to the
government by pruning down within
decent limitations the exhorbitant
appropriations now being made for
pensions, rivers aud harbors and irri-
CATION of arid lands. We have no
objection to fair pensions to the de-
serving, but we do oppose scheme
of pensions which increases as time
goes on, where it should decrease in
the natural course of events, and in
clndes as its benefciaries csmpfol-
lowers and ''freside veterans" who
have never smelled power. And yet
none of these papers now vigorously
opposing the Brownlow bill has the
courage to enter protest against this
missppropristion of the peoples
money, but they raise, with one &C
cord, their hands in holy horror when
the people seek small portion of
their own.

The ladies of Krlmarnock church
assembled last Wednesday afternoon
at the home of Joseph HAYWARD and
organized society. Owing to cold
weather and bad roads, not a great

sidered we had enough to do business,
Mrs. r. o. Porter was elected presl-
dent; Mrs. E. j. Hayward, vice
president; Mrs. Mamie Henderson,
secretary, and Mrs. Bessie Kent,
treasurer. This society was organ
lied strictly for our church, aud we
trust that it will meet with the ap-
provsl and cooperation of its mem
6ers. We cordially invite every mem-
Der, male and female, to meet with
us and lend helping hand. We
also invite those outside of our
church TO meet with us. We want
to make it q social as well as busi-
ness meeting.
Our society is called "Willing
Workers." and We hope that every
member, when elected or appointed
to do athing, will do it willingly and
cbeerfully. This society meets We'd
nesdsy after the second Sunday In
every month. Ten cents when you
join and ten cents every month after
wards are the amounts expected of
every member. We will elect officers
every six months, and are gong to

SELFISH OPPOSITION TO
GOOD ROADS.
(Fredericks6urg Free Lance }

Almost without exception the
newspapers in the very large cities
oppose government assistance, as pro-
posed by the Brownlow bill, in the
construction of good roads, while
those published in the smaller cities
and towns and the rural districts ad-
vocate the scheme. The reason for
this is apparent. The large cities
with handsomely paved streets and
avenues have no conception of the
bardships borne by the country peo-
pie on account Of the deplorable con-
dition of the roads, nor do they real
ize the utter lmpossibility of improv-
ing these roads with the small tax
filched from these poverty stricken

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny In the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.
