a period of is months suffering her
gentle spirit calmly and quietly slipped
away from kindred. friends and home
to the One who gave IT, The change
leaves q vacant place in the home and
not hearts, and we ieSl assured that
her departure has released her from
the trials and sutferings OF this life,
and that she has gone TO most Jesus
and her dear ones Of the sweet bye
and-bye. Mrs. Joiner was 50 YearS old
She leaves a devoted husband and son
and two brothers. She was a true
friend Of all and was ever willing to
listen to the cry Of distress and was
always among the first to attend to the
needs of her church, and jealous in
everything pertaining to the advance
ment of our Fathers cause. While we
mourn and miss her we realize that she
has entered eternal rest prepared for
those who love and trust God, where
she can join in the songs of praise with
those who surround the beautiful white
throne. She was laid to rest in the
little cemetery at Sunny Side. She
was a beloved member Of the o. L. s.
who beautifully rendered their burial
service at the grave, A FRIEND.

AT APPOINTED HOUR
1t Was Fate'S Decree That Bryce

Just in time, Bryce Talbot gathered
up falling feminine form in his arms

and stumbled against the policeman
guarding the crossing from one OF
those Islands of safety planted at
the street intersection.
"a pretty narrow escape, that" re-
marked the officer. Good for you
young man." he added enthusiasts
cally.
He slapped Talbot on the shoulder
in an appreciative way, but the latter
was not responsive Talbot assisted
the dark-featured, large-eyed girl he
had saved to recover her fallen hand
bag, raised his hat as she thanked him
gratefully, and went on his way, grim,
pale and wretched.
1T has come" he kept saying to
himself in a strained, dreamy under
tone-"the appointed hour! Why did
| ever make the contract? Why have
l dallied in fancied security all these
years?"
He had history, this man. Ten
years agone he had wasted fortune
in reckless extravaganza. Then the
last resort of ennui, the capricious
playing cards. Then reform, hard
work, some fair savings and-Bertha

That morning letter had come, q
missiye that chilled him to the mar
row. that made of welded bliss
mockery and faced him an accusing,
avenging wrath from the wasted past
When he reached his lonely rooms
he sat down at stand with its shaded
lamp, and stared desperately at moth
ingness, Mechanically his hand
groped In a drawer; almost uncon-
sciously he drew forth pack Of cards.
He had not touched them before for
years. Now, at the vivid thought that
they were the cause Of his present
situation, he began aimlessly lingering
them over.

LEGISLATURE SAYS COUNTY
ROADS MUST BE DRAGGED

Aiming towards the securing of better
roads the last legislature enacted law,
known as the road dragging act, which
provides that the township trustees, shall
at their first meeting in January of each
year, designate one of their number to
be known as dragging superintendent,
who shall receive not to exceed $50 a
year He shall divide the roads of the
township into dragging districts and des-
ignate from time to time what districts
shall be dragged. All claims for dragg-
ing must be reported by the superinten-
dent to the township trustees, who shall
pay same at their regular June Decem-
Der meetings.
During the month of January, each
year, the trustees must fix the price to be
paid for dragging during that year,
which sum, however, must not exceed
so cents per mile.
