Resolved, That we, the MEM
bers Of Tupelo Local No. 1910
Of the Farmers Union, tender
our sympathy to the family of
our beloved brother. George H.
Hill, who died December 30,
1910. Deceased was born in
England, and had lived an hon.
ored citizen of this country for
Al years. He was one of the
charter members of our Local,
and was highly esteemed. We
enjoyed the association of Broth
err Hill, but we trust he has gone
to enjoy the treasures in Christ,
which are the Christian inheri-
lance forever. Our prayer is
that his surviving son may look
with pride at the record made by
his father, and strive to honor
his good name. Example is
grown on the rock and the les
sen is not som lost"

GRAND. Gloomy and Peculiar.

There was a marked contrast be-
tween Lincoln's manner, which was
always pleasant and even genial, and
that of Stanton. The latter's stern,
specialized visage commanded instant
respect and in many cases inspired
fear. In receiving visitors, and they
were legion, Stanton seldom or never
sat down, but stood before a high
desk as the crowd passed before him
and one by n presented their re-
quests or complaints, which We're rap
idly disposed OF. He was naughty.

He Told Her She Would Return -
Him, and She Did.
She entered the room hastily.
He was awaiting her.
81 was afraid You would be thinking
I had forgotten" she said.
NO." he responded calmly. In the
tone Of one who Is master Of himself.
"An engagement is an engagement
with me-"
She was a beautiful girl. A wealth
Of chestnut hair rippled below the
wide brim Of her bonnet. Her close
fitting tailored gown yielded to every
movement Of her supple form.
He was a bit above the average
height, a clean cut, square chinned
chap, whose every expression bespoke
self reliance. As he looked at her his
glance was %deferential. yet not timid.
"It has been a long while since we
saw each other" he remarked.
"Yes, nearly a year." she replied.
"But do you remember when I left
that time you said l would have to
come back"
"Yes. You should have come sooner
than this"
"But I have been so busy-going and
coming, dances. dinners. the theater
and ALL"
Il know. And you were married
too?
His voice did not tremble as he ask
ed this, yet across her face there fash
ed a quick tinge of humiliation.
I'll would rather not speak OF
that" she observed. almost coldly.
THAT is all over. We've 1t was
to be expected. The truth is we were
not meant for each other. So II got
a divorce"
"It was better so, no doubt" he re-
sponded gently. won't you sit down?'
She took the chair he indicated, and
as he looked down at her she flashed
him a sudden smile.
81 was afraid of you the last time"
she said merrily.
"But you are not afraid nOw?'
His voice seemed to give her assur-
ance. She smiled again.
mo, indeed"
He put HIS fingers beneath her dim
pied chin and tilted her bonny head
back, then gazed at her earnestly.
Her limpid eyes looked up at him
trustingly. The rose pink OF her
cheeks came and went fitfully. The
white of her throat throbbed with
each breath. He bent nearer to her,
still with that fixed gaze. Her lips
were parted.
He raised his head, and she looked
out Of the window silently.
There was a pause. At last she
spoke.
"What are you studying about?
What have you decided"
