DEATH OF REV. JAS. :. COLE
MAN. ID. d.. A DISTIN-
GUfSEED BAPTIST
ISTER.

Rev. Jas. =. Coleman. one of Il @
ablest and most widely known Bap-
tist ministers in Kentucky. died at
his home in Beaver Dam. Ohio
county. on Tuesday last, aged about
81 years.
DR.. Coleman had been pastor of
several churches in the region
whore he had spent his whole life,
for fifty years, n record eNcelled by
none and equalled by few in these
davs of change and unrest.
He was an able. earnest aud con-
secrated man-jcalous of the honor
of the Master he served. and zeal
Gus in every good word and work.
We have known and admired this
venerable and beloved man for 43
years. and know that his record in
winning souls for Christ is one that
should be a source of humble pride
and gratitude TO the large family
of children left behind.
One of his sons was principal of
the High School in this city for a
number of years-Prof. j. Dudley
Coleman--who resigned his position
to enter the 4th Kentucky Nolun-
teers during the Cuban war. Prof.
Coleman was a staunch and de-
voted Christian. and an earnest
worker in the First Baptist Church,
of this city, now residing in Louis
vile. where he is II member of a
big Wholesale firm of jeans clothing
manufacturers, his brothers being
the 9th er members of the firm.
We tender to the bereft family our
earnest coincidence in their bereave-
ment, which, to the departed, is n
glorious entrance upon the reward
of n life well-spent in the Masters S
cause.

Consumption is a human
weed flourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption SO
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is COnsump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

1t was an old house, and lonely.
The Thief shivered and drew nearer
the fire. He was alone, save for an
old crone who slept in far north
room up stairs, and in his loneliness
he poked the fire to make it burn
more brightly, and threw on another
log. Even if the woman had been
with him he would have been uncom-

Then he turned and dragged table
into the moonlight, and with shaking
fingers wrote:
Arthur ID. Motley, Attorney.
"Sir: The missing will Is found.
The Stones have all. Come to me, for
Christ's sake Harland."
He sealed it hastily and directed It.
Then stealthily, fearfully, he twisted
his head back without moving his
body. Slowly, forced on by his own
will, his eyes turned until--ah!
He fell back in his chair trembling,
a great wave OF revulsion sweeping
over him. The eyes were closed
He sat silent his heart-beats grad
ually growing calmer; he became
aware that his foot was asleep; he
saw the fire was cold; his mind re.
gained its clearness.
His hand toyed with the letter
ready for mailing. Should he post it?

It meant the loss Of all ho had
wished for; it meant hard toll in the
future; il he made this just restora-
ton he would have TO keep on doing
right, and forsake his old ways Of de-
ceit and dishonesty, or else his sacri.
flee would be hollow sham, and his
conversion a mockery. Was he strong
enough for this? Was he convinced
that it was worth while? Why should
he make this somewhat theatrical
move? Was he really unselfsh in
this, and did he wish only to do sim
pie justice, or did he actually desire
to feel that he was magnanimous.
AS he asked himself these questions
he knew that it was only the last
feeble STRINGS OF his once strong
selishness which was now In its dy-
ing struggle. He could never again
feel the same selfish musings and
iongings tugging at his hearts cords.
His nature was changed, and he
could no longer sec things in the same
old way. His past deeds sickened
and disgusted him. After all, what
was life TO him, without his self-re-
spect? What enjoyment could he get
out Of nature, the songs Of birds, tho
swell of the prairie, the silent, rolling
voyage Of the clouds, the beauties OF
a summer sunset, when his con.
science allowed him no rest, and he
felt ashamed to look his very dog In
the face?
AS for agnes, well-she would
think all the more OF him when she
knew Of his conduct, and IL he failed
to satisfy the demands Of his out
ragged conscience, and she then
learned of his failure. she would, In
all probability, cast him off forever.
And il she didn't? Well, truce to
these wandering, Eighty thoughts.
Let him decide like man-now.
without any further delay, and fearful
thoughts for the future.
Something dropped with soft Ihud
into the box at his side. 1t was the
letter.

BILE, a great wave Of JOY and content
swept over him. such as he never
would have believed mortals could
enjoy.
