may be understood and appreciated
by the laymen.
DR.. Wyche has given considerable
thought to this subject: and has been
very much interested in the pure food
laws and secured the passage at the
last sessio onf the legislature Of the
pure food law in this state.
It will be remembered that during
the campaign last year he would
touch upon the Importance Of pre-
venting diseases showing his deep in
terest in the subject.

attend this public meeting of the
County Medical Society.

There will be a glorious dawn;
We shall meet to part-no never!
On the resurrection morn.
Tho thy darling form lies sleeping
In the cold and silent tomb,
Thou shalt have a glorious waking
When the blessed Lord doth come.
Thy gentle voice now is hushed,
Thy warm, true heart is still,
And on thy young and innocent brow,
Is resting deaths cold chill.
Thy hands are clasped upon thy
breas,
We have kissed thy lovely brow,
And in our aching hearts we know,
We have no darling now.
We have lost our darling Merrill,
He has bid US all adieu;
He has gone to live in Heaven,
And his form is lost to view.
Oh, that dear one, how we loved him,
Oh, how hard to give him up!
But an angel came down for him
And removed him from our flock.
Peaceful by thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in thy grave so low;
Thou no more will join our number,
Thou no more our sorrows know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee.
When the day of life is fled,
And in heaven with JOY to greet thee.
Where no farewell tears are shed.
