Kodol supplies the same digestive
juices that are found in a healthy
stomach. Being a liquid, it starts
digestion at once.
Kodol not only digests your food,
but helps you enjoy every mouthful
you eat.
You need a sufficient amount of
good, wholesome food to maintain
strength and health.
But, this food must be digested
thoroughly, otherwise the pains OF
Indigestion and dyspepsia are the
result.
When your stomach cannot do it's
work properly, take something to
help your stomach. Kodol is the
only thing that will give the stom-
ach complete rest.
Whyp Because Kodol does the
same work as strong stomach, and
does it in natural way.

Mother.

The dearest name on eaath.
Mrs. Susan J. Hubbard was born
in the State of Georgia and was
married there to L. ]. Hubbard.
They moved to the State of Mis-
sissippi during the forties, and
located where the town of Iuka
now stands. They were among
the pioneers in the settling of this
part of Mississippi. Her husband,
the Rev. L. ]. Hubbard was a
minister of the gospel of the de-
nomination known as protestant
methodist. They we're settled
here at Iuka before the r. r. was
built through this county. They
moved from Iuka during the civil
war, about four miles south to the
old homestead where they remain
ed quite mum yer of years. |
became acquainted with the fam
lily in the seventies, and have
known them intimately, since
mother Hubbard was a person
whose heart seemed to go out for
humanity in every sphere and
condition of life. Her sphere in
life appeared to be for the the up
lifting of fallen humanity in all its
different phases. She bore the
burdens of life with wonderful
fortitude. She proved by her ac-
tons that her sojourn on this
earth was for the alienation of
others, regardless of race or color,
ever mindful of the distressed,
either in body or mind. Her
home was a home in which you
could feel welcome, made the
more so by the motherly kindness
which she bestowed on her guest,
a home in which the good Oh
Southern style was prevalent. A
home in which our duty to God
and to our neighbor was made to
impress upon the minds of her
family, and her guest. Her home
was one of those old Southern
homes in which you were made to
feel at home. 1t was a home
made bright and cheerful by her
presence. Her friends, of which
she had many were always well
coined to her hospitality. When
we hear one speak of her we are
sure to hear something of the true
type of christian mothers She
has left footprints on the sands
of time that can never be obiit
Grated, but will shine on and on
down the line of time until the
God of Heaven and earth says
that time shall be no longer.
Some IA years ago she was
stricken down with paralysis, lin
gering on until few weeks past,
when her Father in Heaven called
her home. They say she is dead.
No, she is but sleeping, sleeping
to rise on that great day for which
all other days were made. All
along through her confinement of
some Il years she was entirely
submissive to the will of the great
God, who doeth all things well.
Mother, they tell me that thou art
dead, while thy earthly form has
passed from our sight, we see
thee and we know thee mother by
a power far greater than that
