for his invalid and aged wife. This is
according to reports sent out at the
time.
But the facts as told by the Rev.
George B. Simons, formerly pastor of
the First Baptist church of this city
and now in charge of the First Baptist
church of Burlington, Iowa, who
preached the funeral sermon for Mr.
Barnes eight years ago, at Benton
Harbor, Mich, are as follows:
Was Eccentric.
The Rev. Barnes, Baptist minister
at one time, was a very eccentric man.
He wished to have his funeral sermon
preached before he died. And he wish
cd it preached when he could hear it.
Furthermore, he wanted his pastor, the
Rev. Simons, to perform that service
for him at a regular Sunday night ser
vice of the Benton Harbor Baptist
church. This was done. And the only
thing omitted was the name of the de
ceased" Reporters from Chicago and
elsewhere swarmed to the church and
piled certain cautious. innocent old
deacon with questions. For he was
spotted" as the man who wished his
funeral sermon to be preached ahead
of time. But he denied this, as he did
not know any more about it than the
reporters themselves
But after the sermon, the Rev. ST.
mons met Mr.. Barnes, who had attend
ed the service-it having been an
nounced that the one wishing the ser
mon to be preached would attend-re-
ceived the thanks of the eccentric gen
tleman. with the added warning that
when he really did die and if the Rev.
Simons should preach upon that occa
sion. he should leave out some of the
eulogy Mr. SimonS told him that he
did not think he had told anything
but the truth about Mr. Barnes.
Was Provided For.
The latter was not poverty stricken, |
as alleged in the former account. For
his son, notable Baptist minister and |
for years pastor of the leading church |
IF Springfield, Mass, and at the Fourth |
avenue Baptist church, Pittsburg, Pa. |
had provided a home for both Mr.. |
Barnes and his wife. But the latter |
ior some reason. did not avail them
selves of this proffercd aid, and chose
o depend on their own resources to u
greater or less extent.

If the first days rapid selling is any
Indication as to how this stock will be

more pianos, organs, etc, will be sold
here in the next two weeks than were

that the administrator would close out
everything regardless of cost or for

to take advantage of the opportunity.
Yesterday, the first day of the sale,

DISCRIMINATING LADIES.
Enjoy Using Herpicide on Account of
Its Distinctiveness.

Its OiStInCtivencSS.
The ladies who have used Newbro's
Herpicide speak of it in the highest
terms, for its quick effect in cleansing
the scalp of dandruff and also for its
excellence as a general hair dressing,
1t makes the scalp feel fresh and it al
lays that itching which dandruff will
cause. Newbro's Herpicide effectively
cures dandruff, as it destroys the germ
that causes it. The same germ causes
hair to fall out, and later badness; in
killing it, Herpicide stops falling hair
and prevents badness. 1t is also an
ideal hair dressing. for it lends an arts
tocratic charm to the hair that is quite
distinctive. Sold by leading druggists.
