Obituary.

Myrtle May, infant daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Will Harvey, was
born Dec. 81, 1910, and died
Sept. l, 1911, at the age of s
months and II days.
Little Myrtle May was a bright,
loving little child. Otis hard to
give her up, snatched as she was
without scarcely moment S
warning. Yet as we stood by the
little white casket and looked on
the little form, so sweet, we real
lied that another jewel had been
added to the crown of Him who
said, "Suffer little children to
come unto me, and forbid them
not, for such is the Kingdom Of
Heaven. e"
She was laid to rest at Liberty
church cemetery, northwest of
Thompson, Saturday afternoon.
She leaves behind father and
mother and three brothers to
mourn her death.
Little darling, thou hast left us,
And your loss we deeply feel,
But It's God that hast bereft us,
lie can all our sorrows heal.
Yet again We hope to greet
thee,
When the day of life is fed,
And in Heaven with joy tc
greet thee,
Where no farewell tears are
shed.
| We extend sympathy to the
bereft father and mother.
A Friend.

UNIQUE DISPLAYS.
Go Around and View the Front
Windows in Ragsdale's Cash
Store.

Ragsdale S Cash Store has two
unique window displays that have
attracted much attention since
their installation. In his west
show window is a straw mating
suit case holding 500 pounds of
stone without the slightest give.
This is to show the strength of the
suit case. The Asbestos Sad Iron
display, in the east window, with
its mechanical figure demonstrate
ing the iron, tells a long story in a
few words.
The iron is lined with asbestos
which keeps the heat from going
upward, keeping the iron hot and
the handle cool. There are two
small sad irons in front of the
figure that the figure points to,
showing the reason why the iron
is a good one.
