IN MEMORY OF MRS. HARRIS.
Loving Tribute Is Paid to a Depart
ed Friend.

| Mrs. Minnie J. Harris has depart
ed from earth to heaven. Our hearts
are sad. though we know she is hap
py. Mrs. Harris was born in Terrell
county April II, 1872, and died of
pneumonia on January 81, 1911. In
early life she remembered her Gre
ator and gave her heart and life to
/ God. She united with Sardis Bap-
fist church, and was a member I'M
til i've or six years ago, when she
reunited with the Brooksville Bap-
fist church, of which she was a con-
sistent member at the time nf her
death. She was one of the dearest
and most sincere friends l ever had,
and my heart is saddened to know
can see her no more on earth. There
was nothing she had too good to di-
vide with others, and she had a kind
word for everyone. Everybody low
ed her. She was a faithful, devoted
wife and a loving mother. Oh, how
my heart goes out to the children, for
they have lost the best friend on
earth. No other can take her place
in their hearts and home. But God
needed one more link in His chain,
and sent the Death Angel to take
her home.
Mrs. Harris was inferred in the
cemeter at Sardis, Rev. NJ. B. L.
Binion performing the last sad rites.
She is survived by he father and
mother, husband and two small chill
and several brothers. To the bereav-
ed ones we offer our deepest sympa-
thy, and point to Him who doeth all
things we'll.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love had given;
And tho the body slumbers here
The soul is safe in heaven. NJ. P.

From this ''lacto milk" lacto can
be made by the following formula
which is sufficient for one gallon:
Two and a half quarts of lacto
milk, one and four-fifths pounds of
sugar, two eggs, one-half pint cher
ry juice or concentrated cherry syr-
up, one-third pint lemon juice.
Other fruit flavOrs can be used in
stead of cherry as desired. The yolks
and whites are beaten in separate
containers. Both are then added to
the milk. The mixture is thoroughly
stirred and strained through a fine
wire gauze. The fruit juices are
added last. If there is any indica-
ton Of the juices precipitating the
casein they should not be added until
the mixture has begun to freeze
The freezer is run until it turns
with difficulty, when the paddle is
removed. The brine is removed
and the freezer repacked With ice
and salt and left for an hour or so
before the contents are served.

Little Walter Franklin Daniel, Who
Was Burned to Death.

On the morning of January 18th
God came into the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. F. f. Daniel, and took there
from their little baby. Walter Frank
lin. The little ones mother left it
in room for a few minutes to at
tend to some duties, and when she
returned found it burned almost to
a crisp. 1t lived about three hours
afterward, when it peacefully passed
away. The little one was a winsome
child, and won the hearts of all who
knew it. God has taken this pre-
ciOus darling home with Him where
sickness and suffering come no more
The little body was laid to rest on
the eighth day of January, 1911. To
the grief-stricken parents we say
weep not, but prepare to meet your
loved one in that haven of rest where
all is joy and peace and happiness.

WOMAN LEGISLATOR SPEAKS
Gets Eight-HOur Bill Through, and
Gives Some Advice. Says WO-
mans Place Is Home.

DENVER, Cor-What are gener-
ally considered the best of anti-suf-
frage arguments marked a speech
in the state house of representatives
yesterday by Mrs. Agnes Riddle, one
of three women members of the leg
islature and presumably an advocate
of woman suffrage.
Mrs Riddle spoke in favor of a
bill placing a limit of eight hours on
the daily work of women in this
state
I'm the Cities said Mrs. Riddle,
women work such long hours for
such small pay that employers hire
them instead of men. This results
in the women doing the work while
the men sit at home and wear out
the seat Of their pants.
And while the woman is working
and coming home each evening to a
stuffy fiat she is not going to raise
a family.
This condition is wrong. The men
should go to work and the women
stay at home and raise families. The
