In the death of Miss Virginia Beach,
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. George
w. Beach. which occurred on May 7,
1908, at Blackstone Female Institute.
from typhoid fever, this entire COM
munity has plunged into profound
sorrow.
"Virginia," as she was familiary
and lovingly known, was, from child
hood, beautiful in face and character,
intellectual and musical-a rare and
lovely flower in which the .neighbor-
hood took fond pride. Why an All
Wise Providence should have called
her away at the age of fifteen, just on
the threshold of promising woman
hood, is far past our earthly I'M
derstanding; but this we know, the
fragrance of her sweet innocent life
will linger long over this community
as benediction and blessing.
Her remains were brought to Keller
Station Friday accompanied by her
parents, sister, and friends. Long be-
| fore train time both the old and young
of Kdiler and many friends from sur
rounding neighborhoods gathered at
station or at the Beach home, their sad
faces and unbroken silence showing
how deeply they loved Virginia" 1t
will be long time before the silence
and sadness of that train-time will be
forgotten.
After funeral services Saturday
morning at Oak Grove M. E. Church,
South, of which she was a member,
she was buried in Mt. Holly Gene
terry, Onancock. The immense throng
of people present and the hanks of
gorgeous flowers spoke eloquently of
their deep feeling. With her heart
broken parents and stricken relatives,
we mingle our tears of sorrow and
sympathy. X.

Precious darling, he has Left us,

precious udIllnS, uo hao iOiO 70,
Left us yes forever more,
But we hope to meet our loved one,
On that bright and happy shore,
Lonely the house and sad the hours,
Since our dear one has gone,
But oh! a brighter home than ours,
In heaven is now his own.
Heaven retaineth now our treasure,
Earth the lonely casket keeps,
And the sunbeams love to linger,
Where our dear papa sleeps.
When we leave this world OF changes,
When we leave this world of care,
We shall find our missing loved one,
In our Fathers mansion fair.
Beyond the smiling and the weeping,
Beyond the waking and the Sleep
ing,
Our loved one rests in slumber deep,
In silent and eternal sleep.
Not now, but in the coming years,
tt NAV be in the better land,
Well read the meaning of our tears,
And there sometime we'll under
stand.
We have lost our darling father,
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.
1t is sad that one we cherish,
Should be taken from our home,
But the Joys that do not perish,
Live in memory alone.
All the years we have spent together,
All the happy golden hours,
Shall be cherished in remembrance,
Fragrant sweets from memory's
flowers.
Peaceful be 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 my husband to greet
thee,
Where no farewell tears are shed.
We miss thee from our home, dear
husband,
We miss thee from thy place,
A shadow DER our life is cast,
We miss the sunshine OF thy face
We miss thy kind and loving voice,
Thy fond and loving care,
Our home is dark without thee,
We miss you everywhere.
Farewell dear papa, sweet thy rest,
Weary with years and worn with
pain,
Farewell till in some happy place,
We shall behold thy face again,
sTis our to miss thee all our days,
Thine in the Lord to rest for so,
He giveth his beloved sleep.
His loving wife and children.
March 10, 1908. h.
The Angel of death entered oul
home January 26th, 1908, and tool
our only boy, Tommy, away from us
Tommy, how we miss you!
No one on earth can tell,
But we hope in heaven to meet you
There forevermore to dwell.
A precious one from us has gone,
a voice we loved is still;
A place is vacant in our home,
| Which never can be filed.
God in His wisdom has recalled,
| Our only boy home,
| But if we are faithful here,
| We will meet him around the throIe
| A few more years shall roll,
A few more seasons come,
And we will be with thee at rest,
Asleep in the tomb.
| Asleep liz Jesus, peaceful rest,
Whoseswaking is supremely blest
No foes, no fears can dim tnat hour
That raanifests the Savior's power
I3Y his father and mother,
| Alex Taylor and wife.

Hard for American Miners

A Mexico City dispatch says:
 The absorbing topic in mining circles is the new mining law with it's anti-foreign clauses, which pro- hibit foreign corporations from owning mining property in Mexico and prohibit foreigners from de- nouncing or acquiring properties in the border states of the republic.
 The whole matter has taken a new turn in that President Diaz has taken the matter into his own hands from the minister of fomento who presumably suggested these laws. The mining fraternity has greater hopes now, for it has far more confidence in the president than in any of his ministers. The prospect is that the proposed law will not be acted on for some time. Mining men look upon the new law as a plan to get moro taxes out of them when the industry is taxed now to the limit.

"The Blood is The Life"

Science has never gone beyond the above simple statement of scripture. But it has illuminated that statement and given it meaning ever broadening with the increasing breadth of knowledge.

 In the cure of scrofulous swellings, en- larged glands, open eating ulcers, or old sores. the Golden Medical Discovery has performed the most marvellous cures. In cases of old sores. or open eating ulcers, 1t is we'll to apply to the open sores Dr. Pierce's All-Healing Salve, which pos sesses wonderful healing potency when used as an application to the sores in con- junction with the use of "Golden Medical Discovery as blood cleansing consti- tutional treatment. If your druggist don't happen to have the rAll-Healing Salve" in stock, you can-easily procure it by inclosing fifty-four cents in postage stamps to Dr. R. V. Pierce, 663 Main St., Buffalo, N.
