]. Walter Church passed away Sun
day morning, January II, 1909 at the
family home in Henry County, after
an illness than begun about four years
ago. At first it seemed as if the
trouble would soon yield to the skill of
physicians and excellent nursing, but
it was willed otherwise and now there
are many who mourn the loss of this
noble young man, whose gracious
manner and whose many good quail
ties had endeared him to all who
knew him. =. Walter Church was
born in Henry county, near Mt. Pleas
ant 80 years ago, the son of VIM. H.
and Christina Church, and this had
been his home until 1900. when he
went to ottumwa to engage in bust
ness with his uncle, Cyrus Church.
There he remained until compelled to
give up. on account of i'll health.
In April 1905 he was married to Miss
Margaret Dempster of Ottumwa. who
has always been a loving and devoted
wife and never firing in her efforts
ard always wishin~ to do more.
At the age of II he was converted
during series of revival meetings
held by Rev. Thomas, an evangelist,
at his home church. and later united
with the South Ottumwa Baptist
church of which he remained a faith
iul member During his illness, he
was never knowa to murmur or COM
plain always of cheerful disposition
ana looking forward to the time of be-
ing well again, bat God had willed it
otherwise and when the summons
came he was ready.
Funeral services were held at the
home church near Mt. Pleasant We'd
nesday January 40, al O'Clock p. M,
conducted by Rev. Jonathan Lee and
was o1lc Of the largest gatherings that
ever assembled on a Ike occasion at
that place and many stood outside the
church door during tbs seryioe.-Ccn-

TAFT AND THE SOUTH.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat citas
the reception being given President
elect Taft in Georgia and the increased
vote he received in that and neighbor-
ing states as an indication that some
of the southern states are likely %

the next few years. The Globe-Demo.
crat points out that while Roosevelt IN
1904 carried ten of Georgia's 1877 coun-
ties, Taft carried all of those ten
counties in 1908, and sixteen others, al
though Bryan was more popular in the
south as well as in the north than
Parker was. Roosevelt's percentage
OF Georgia's vote was 18.47. Taft,s was

S1.57 A large majority of the bust
ness men of that state voted the Re-
publican ticket in the recent election.
The Globe-Democrat has reached the
conclusion that the political south IS
getting tired of holding aloof from the
industrial south. Mining and manu-.
featuring are increasing with great
rapidity all over the region below the
Potomac and the Ohio, and these in
f1uences, which have given the Repub-
lican party it's sway throughout the
north are working in the same direc-
ton in the other section. The predic-
ton is made that the south is over
coming prejudice and tradition so fast
that the election of 1912 may find
Georgia, North Carolina and Tonnes
see in the doubtful column.

sLAMDERiNG THE WEATHER.

Louisville Courier.Journal - Every
one mathematics the weather sons
of the time, and some persons protest
against it all the time The fact Is
most of us Islander 1t most of the tiEne.
Our houses and oar steam heat, our
habits of overfeeding, overdressing -
in the matter of the weight of gar
ments- overcoddilng and undGreXer
cising, rather than the actual malice
of muggy days, chill winds or soak
ing winter rains, create a carnival for
the pneumonia germ and provide vic
tins for grip.
Immured in buildings filed with
baked air we seek to dodge the rigors
Of fine cold daytime of us out of
ten-although a temperature OF Is
degrees, or less, is tonic to anyone
in health who will venture into it ard
remain long enough out of doors 10
recover from the first shock of the
change from the baked air Of an over
heated Office or home. Even January
rain beating upon a raincoat, provid'
ing care is taken to keep the feet
dry, has no other effect than to
brighten the complexion increases
the appetite, and brings the realiza-
tion that most of the really dangerous
weather is indoors rather than out OF
doors, and most of the winter all
ments that overtake ordinarily heal
thy persons are traceable to our wavs
of living rather than our climate.
Physicians tell all of us that it is
not by getting out of doors and rub
hing against the elements, but by re-
naming too much indoors and cook
ing our vitality out of existence that
we fall victims to diseases Of the res
piratory system and victims Of cpl
denies of bad colds" But how many
of us pay serious attention to such all
vice. How many Of us who kick like
the proverbial government mule
when the mercury drops to Is de,
grees realize that the greater part Of
our suffering from the nipping cold
is due to having allowed the office IA
diator, and the hall stove to work in
shifts to keep up a summer heat,
where we spend our indoors time?
Preventive medicine is the chief re-
lance Of medical science nowadays
The pound of cure is still to an ex
tent empirical. The disadvantage ull
der which physicians labor - not as
earners Of fees, but as preservers OF
the public health is that the public
is careless Of the opportunity to an
ply the ounce Of prevent ton Salvage
is good in its way, but avoidance of
the catastrophe is better One means
of avoiding the catastrophe of winter
ailments is TO recognize the fact that
we'll cooked air, carefully protected
from an infusion of the atmOSnhere
house plant of the hardest individual,
and that when we loudly thunder
against he weather provided by prov
idence. the cause Of our llnhappiness
or influenza is often nothing more
than our self coddling.
