When the English Admiral j. Mores-

and the other Mount Disraeli. He
wrote to the two statesmen asking per-

replies, which he gives. are character
istic of the humor of one and the want
OF humor OF tie other.
Gladstone wrote:

Resolutions Of Respect.

We clip the following touching
tribute to the late Mrs. e. d. Solo
mon from the McComb City Enter
prise:
Whereas, in the providence of In all
wise and loving Heavenly Father, our
friend and sister, Mrs. Mae Sherman
Solomon, precious wife of our beloved
pastor, has been so suddenly called
from our midst to a land beyond the
portals of earth, therefore be it Re-
solved,
lst. That we believe in this, as in
all Gods dealings with us, He has
some gracious purpose to perform, and
though we cannot 10 understand, we
bow to his unerring wisdom and await
with patience the time when all Gods
children shall be reunited in that
haven of rest prepared for them.
I'd. That the First Baptist Church,
her Christian associates, her friends
and the community at large sustain
an irreparable loss in the passing
away of this sweet young woman. who
| was SO devoted to the work OF Christ,
and whose character was an example
of purity and lovelineSs. We mourn
her loss and in every department Of
our work will miss her gentle presence
and Christian influence.
Sd. That we tender to her bereaveo
husband, relatives and friends Oul
heartfelt sympathy, trusting that
they may find abiding comfort in the
promise that "All things work to
gether for good to them that love
God"
4th. That we send a copy of thest
resolutions to the stricken husband
and loved mes in Grenada, and have
copies published in the McComb En-
terprise, and The Baptist, and that
copy be spread on the minutes OF thu
three societies of the church of which
she was an active member.

A Story About the Original Joha
Walter Of the London Times.
A story about the original John Wal
ter Of the London Times when beset By
a strike of compositors and pressmen
is told in London Opinion. On GER
tain day the copy" fell short by half
q column There was none at hand
ready to fill up with, and time passed
With the inspiration of genius Mcc.
Walter laid hold Of a column Of print
er's pie" and prepared it in the most
expeditions way, so that it might pass
muster for an article in foreign
tongue. He popped it in with a few
lines Of introduction, declaring this In
comprehensive mass to be paper in
some Hindoostanee dialect, translation
Of which would follow in the course OF
a few days. No translation" ever ap-
peared. Ten years after Mr.. Walter
was on a visit to noble earl in Che
shire, where he was introduced to a
most learned pundit and oriental schol-
ar. 'tAh," said the latter, II have long
and ardently wished to solve the prob
lem which has puzzled me for the last
ten years." And drawing from his
pocket tattered old copy Of the Times
he pointed out to the embarrassed pro-
prietor Of that journal the alleged Hin
doostanee article, which, he confessed,
had bafied his most strenuous and as
siduous efforts to make anything of,
although he had tried every known dla-
lect Of the language. How Mr. Walter
explained the matter is not recorded

In Time Of Peace.

In the first months of the Russia-Ja-
pan war we had a striking example OF
the necessity for preparation and the
early advantage of those who, so. to
speak, shave shingled their roofs IN
dry weather" The virtue Of prepara-
tion has made history and given to us
our greatest men. The individual as
well as the nation should be prepared
for any emergency. Are you prepared
to successfully combat the first cold you
take? A cold can be treated much
more quickly when treated as soon as it
has been contracted and before it has
become settled in the system. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is famous for
it's cures of colds, and it should be kept
at hand ready for instant use. For sale

Wine and wills.

The Law Magazine and Review tells
an odd story Of a Hamburg merchant
who had fre sons who were all ardent
teetotalers. The merchant was con-
trary minded, and, to- rescue the mis-
guided young men from the error Of
their obstinate ways, he directed in his
will that each Of the FIVE should on the
day Of the funeral drink glass Of
wine to his memory in some public
place, adding as condition subsequent
that if any Of them should refuse to
drink the enjoined glass his share OF
the Inheritance should be forfeited and
divided ur among the more complai-
SAINT brothers, but if all should refuse
the whole family property should go
to charities.
No other testament so odd on the sub
ject Of wine is recalled except that-of q
total abstainer who left fine wine eel
lar, recent legacy to himself, to his
heir, with directions that its contents
should be poured untasted on the
ground
