A-.s:


Frank Mcmillan died at the home of
his sister, Mrs Bette Harrington.
Saturday night, at the age of eighty
years The funeral was held on Sun
day, the interment taking place at
the Old Georgeville cemetery, very
large crowd being present, showing
the high esteem in which deceased
was held. Mr. Mcmillan was of re-
tiring disposition and attended strict
ly to his own affairs and never inter-
meddled with those of others. He
ever readily responded to duty's call,
and in the stirring days of the early
sixties was among the first to take up
arms in defense of the cause he held
so dear. He proved a most gallant
and exemplary soldier, and the same
noble qualities characterized his everv
relation in life. His death casts a
gloom, not only over his immediate
circle of relatives. bnt upon the whole
county. to whom he left the record of
a spotless and untarnished life and an
example we'll worthy of emulation.

Mrs. Alicia Garland.

Mrs. Alicia Garland died at the res
idence of Mr.. and Mrs. G. o. Jaap, at
jackson, Tuesday evening, July 16, at
6 90 o'clock after long illness, in her
eighty ninth year of age. Deceased
was a native of Belfast, Ireland, and
came to this country when about sew
enteen years of age, the greater part
of her life having been spent inHolmes
county. The remains were brought
up from jackson and the funeral serv
ices took place at the Saron church
Wednesday evening, conducted by
Rev. G. T. Kincanon of the Baptist
church. of which she was a lifelong
member, and attended by large con-
course of people. after which she was
| tenderly laid to rest beside her hus-
band who preceded her to the great
beyond about sixteen years. After
long, busy and useful life, she died
as she had lived-honored, trusted and
loved. She reared her own monument
in the hearts of all who knew her.
Her life was completed if work well
done constitutes completion. Her
Christian life was beautiful from its
beginning to its close, and through all
the vicissitudes and SORROWS that she
met in the way, her faith in God new
er wavered For her there was NO
standing on the border land, gazing
into the unknown, for death came as
the sunset dies along the hills when
the day is over. A life that imparts
such lessons is we'll worth living
But now she sleeps where the daisies
nod
And the clover hangs it's head,
Where the wild birds come and the
wild bees hum.
Above her lonely bed,
She fought the fights, she kept the
faith,
Her fame shines bright and clear,
And her memory lives in all our hearts,
Which will hold it ever dear. ~

Why We are Such Poor Conversa-
tionalsts

In olden times the art of conversa-
tion reached a much higher standard
than today, because of the complete
revolution that has taken place In the
conditions of civilization. Formerly
people had almost no other way of
communicating their thoughts. Knowl-
edge of all kinds passed almost wholly
through the spoken word. There were
no great daily newspapers, no maya
zines, or periodicals of any kind Peo-
pie were not in SO much of a hurry
as they are today.
The great discoveries of vast wealth
in the precious minerals, the new
world opened up by inventions and
discoveries, and the great impetus to
ambition have changed all this. In
this lightning express age, in these
strenuous times, when everybody has
the mania to attain wealth and posi-.
ton, we no longer have time to re-
fleet with deliberation, and to develop
our powers of conversation. In these
great newspaper and periodical days,
when everybody can get one for a
few cents the news and information
which it has cost thousands of dol
lars to collect, everybody sits behind
the morning sheet or is buried in a
book or magazine. There is no long
er the same need of communicating
thought by the spoken word Success
Magazine.
