The Npure Food law,' is desIgned

The "pure food law" is designed
by the Government to protect the
public from injurious ingredients in
both foods and drugs. 1t is beneficial
both to the public and to the con-
scientious manufacturer. Ely's Cream
Balm, successful remedy tor cold in
the head, nasal catarrh, hay fever,
etc, containing no injurious drugs,
meets fully the reauirments of the
new law, and that fact is prominently
stated on every package. 1t contains
none of the injurious drugs which are
required by the law to be mentioned
on the label Hence you can use it
safely.

Obituary.

On 1.-THE morning of March 20, 1909,
Little May Muntz answered the sum.
mons of her Creator and entered into
we'll earned and deserved rest.
Though 1t was hardly known outside
of her immediate family, owing to
her bravery and patience In enduring
pain, for seventeen years she has been
terrible sufferer. Many kind neigh
bors and friends, who delighted to
come and see her and spend little
while in her society, would invariably
say how well she was looking, showing
how successfully she could hide her
own feelings and howuncomplaining
was her wav.
May was born January 2, 1854, In
Hillsboro, Ohio. She entered the
public schools, and although severely
handicapped by becoming lame at
this time, she netherless, being led
on by her indomirable will, energy
and exceeding bright mind, gradu-
ated from the high school with her
class in 1882 Her teachers always
had nothing but praise for her, and
on account of her diligent work at
school, she stood among the very best
scholars of her class.
Except short time spent in Gin
cinnati and GAINESVILLE, all her life
was spent with her parents at home,
where she was ever faithful and did
all in her power to tighten their bur-
dens and there can be no doubt but
that her grief over the deaths of
father and mother hastened her own.
She was reared in Christian home
and knew and belle we'd the principles
of Christianity from childhood. But
during a revival meeting in 1883 she
made public acknowledgment of her
belief and Joined the Methodist
Church. On account of Ill health she
attended but few services, yet her
heart was in the work, and her whole
life was a shining example of good,
practical religion. A good word for
everybody, and whenever she suffered
an injury or wrong from anyone it
was always promptly forgiven.
She was always especially fond of
all dumb animals, and they found a
firm friend when they were mistreated
or we're friendless or homeless. 1t 10
indeed true.
HE prayeth best who loveth best
"All things, both great and small"
The last three weeks of her life
were spent in the most intense suffer
ing and she made brave fight, but
realizing that she was In, the grip of a
fatal disease that would inevitably
conquer, as she had always done in
every situation, she faced the future
bravely.
She knew what the end would be
and wanted to live, but knowingS that
she could not she bravely said, "Don't
grieve for me, everything is alright
4 and l am not afraid to die" Then
with rare thoughtfulness she talked
with each one of the family and wished
that each one might be spared the
suffering that she had endured, and
told them how they might carry out
her wishes after she was gone.
At last, after weeks of great pain,
death swept across her beautiful face
and her two sisters, four brothers and
friends feel like a dark cloud has
passed over the bright sun. But this
shadow will pass away, and then each
will remember what she desired then
to do, and her influence will endure
