IN hEhORAh

LdNeSGo chronicle the Qoabh OF 0ul
dear friend James H. Caps.
On April 18th, at 8 p. M, the
death angel came and carried him
from earth to his home in heaven.
He had been in bad health more
than IL months but his strong de-
termined resolution to live that
he might care for his little family
helped him to stay with us as long
as he did. But death had chosen
him as his victim and he had to
go. He was married some three
and a half years ago to Miss jamie
Osteen. And to this union was
given four little children, two
boys and two girls, the first two
being twins a boy and a girl.
No one seemed happier than he
when in good health. He was
sober and industrious and a more
sociable man could not be found.
1t has been my pleasure to know
him for the past four years and
like every one who knew him, to
know him was to love him.
He expressed his perfect con-
fdence in his faith in Jesus as
his Savior. His only regret to go
was that he had to leave his young
wife and children here. When
the end came it was peaceful.
He calmly fell asleep. After
suffering so much for the past
three, weeks, his suffering was
ended by quietly falling asleep
and was no more on earth.
His remains were laid to rest
in the family burying ground
near his house.
The funeral exercises were con-
Quoted by Rev. Robert Hamilton
at 4 p. m. Sunday.
1t is hard to give up and say
Thy will be done'' when in the
prime Of life as this yong man
was. But God knoweth best, so
we must submit to His will.
He had just entered into his
29th year and life was it seemed
almost all before him but he is
gone. "As a vapOr or cloud his
life has passed away.
'Al dread of the distant future,
All fears that Cypress today,
Like mists that clear in the sun
light,
Have noislessly passed. away.
No call nor clamor can rouse him,
From slumber so pure and deep,
For only His voice can reach him,
Who giveth His loved onessleep.
Weep not that his life is over,
Weep not that his race is run;
God grant that we may rest as
calmly,
When our work like his is done.
Till then we yield with gladness.
This treasure to Him to keep;
And rejoice in the blest assurance,
He giveth His loved ones sleep.
Any skilled surgeon can sue
cessfully draw together and
bind up flesh wounds and relieve
the strained muscles and nerves,
but there is only One who can
bind up the broken heart.
When other helpers fail He
is present to help and comfort.
To heart broken wife and
mother, we can but point to One
who has promised to be husband
to the widow and a father to the
orphan.
To the One who wept at the
grave with the broken hearted
sisters oIera departed brother.
One who hath born our
sorrows and is acquainted with
grief"
To One who is always ready to
comfort and strengthen us in ou1
sorrows and grief.
Look not on the dark side OF
the picture, but look for true light
that is always shining, and re-
member that God always knows
what is best for us.
One by one we all have to go this
way and then
One day there'll be a meeting,
When from the house of clay,
The dead come forth in triumph,
To dwell with Christ for aye.
One who loved him.

Letter to T. j. Comerer,
McConnellsburg Pa.

Dear Sir Todd & Downing,
contractors and builders, Morgan
City, La, have painted Devoe for
3 or 4 years. They say 1t takes
less gallons Devoe than of any
other paint they have used. That
means that job costs less with
Devoe; not only for paint, for
labor as we'll
They palnt nothing else, Devoe
ex slnsively.
They have + aid nothing about
the comparative wear of Devoe
and others: oversight, may be;
perhaps too soon for that. But
d voc is the strongest paint;
that's why least gallons; best
wear, same reason. Least cost
aud longest time between jobs.
Yours truly
