how viii a murderer appear in the white
light of Gods courts?
Mr.. Moody, in one of his sermons
somewhere, tells of a conversation with
a man in England who claimed that the
British were ahead of the Americans
morally because they always hung their
murderers and took the necessary pre-
cautions to protect the good people by
keeping them away from the wicked and
harmful. But Mr.. Moody informed him
that there were sons in England who.
by neglect and disobedience and shame
full lives. were slowly killing their moth
ers, the very worst form of murder.
From which we need TO pray the good
Lord to deliver us.
For thousands Of years this command
ment has stood and men have gone on
carelessly committing murder and ma
tions have gone ON committing murder.
The only real difference in the murder
Of an individual by an individual ana
the murder Of hundreds of individuals
by other hundreds banded together Is a
difference of quantity.
The love of God is needed in our hearts
to drive out murders. thefts, evil desires
and all that hurts and harms and keeps
the souls OF men away from God.
The Value Of a Man Forbids Murder.
Stop a moment and think Of a man
created in the image of God and fash
toned after His likeness, with a body
with when to move. a mind with which
to think, a heart with which to feel
think of the possibilities OF man. How
that he can be instrumental in saving
the lost, helping the helpless and be-
come, under the power OF the Spirit, a
potent factor in kingdom building. Think
what God has a right 10 expect Of man,
and now nobly he can fight to put down
battle ground where the fight between
righteousness and evil viii finally be set
tied, and then you win never want to de-
stroy a human life. May from this time
forth each one Of us esteem it great
privilege to obey the Lord and enjoy
keeping each of His commands, for In
the keeping Of them there is great re-
ward, and. on the other hand, he who
violates or breaks one OF these ten has
by that violated them all. So, realizing
our inability to keep the law. let's lean
heavily upon Christ. who met all the
demands Of the law that we had violated
and by His death made possible our
justification.

reputation. Some other evilly inclined
one takes up the matter and repeats
and adds to what has already been said,
until finally the poor girl has to leave
the community murdered by Islander,
literally talked TO death, so far as life or
usefulness in that community any more
is concerned. Slip up behind a man in
the dark and strike him with a dagger.
Under the pretense of friendship and
skill go into a mans home and win his
affection and esteem and then give him
deadly poison, and expect to be clean.
But never deliberately set out to blast
and wreck a mans reputation and ex-
pect to go throufh life loved and re-
spected of men, for God has plainly
commanded against such and His word
remains forever, and no person who sins
against Him shall hope to escape the
penalty that He has placed upon the
violation of His law
Forbds lntemperanee.
Anything that takes life, whether sud
denly or slowly and by degrees, is under
the ban of this sixth command. Our
bodies are to be kept and appreciated
and used. To take into our system any
thing that would tend 10 destroy life is
therefore a sin, and wrong. We are
not to work ourselves to death, to eat
ourselves to death, nor TO drink our
selves to death. When a man has been
educated, when he has a brain with
which to think, when science and rea-
son tell him that strong drink will kill
him, if he keeus It up. and he deliber-
ately keeps ii up and finally the BODY
sickens and dies, who is a murderer?
Who will stand sinless in the sight Of
Him whose very name betokens JUS
tice?
Anything that. taken into the body,
produces hurt, that will make a man for
get himself and do things that viii bring
shame and disgrace upon himself and
family and reproach upon the God who
made him, may assuredly know that he
has broken this commandment. Christ
taught that if a man hate his brother
he is already a murderer at heart. Let
passion have sway and the murderous
intent have free swing and sorrow will
come just so sure as night follows day,
OF the sun rises and sets. Men can eat
themselves to death also. We need Dan
ieIs to-day, with strength and courage
and manhood 10 refuse 20 deiile them
selves with the rich foods and wines
which come from the different parts Of
the world. Sometimes we are intemper-
ate in speech and hurt our neighbors and
ourselves by what we say. May We be
temperate in all things.
The law was given by God and must
be vindicated. lie who sheddeth mans
blood by man shall his blood he shed.
Individuals could not dispense justice
because Of a spirit Of prejudice, so
states and juries are given this duty.

Our Slogan for 1913. Better Health
and More Prosperous People,"

This is to be accomplished by observ-
ing and enforcing the rules and regula-
tions of the Mississippi State Board OF
Health. These rules and regulations
have been and are now being distributed
throughout the county, SO that every
business to which they apply may be in
formed g te just what tbs lsg requires
in the ronduct of his business. If this
should not be specific enough the coun.
ty and local health officers will gladly
explain them more fully.
The object of the State Board of
Health is to protect the pubic health.
1t is essentially an organization which
has for its purpose the prevention of
sickness, the lowering of the death rate
and the lengthening of human life.
The fundamental principle underlying
all of its work is the education of the
people. The public conscience must be
awakened to better sanitary conditions.
Every effort is beng made to educate
the people of our state on the principles
of sanitation, and we believe that the
citizens Of Noxubee will cooperate
with their health authorities in their eff
forts to decrease human suffering, and
in the saving of human life increase
the material prosperity of our county
and state.
1t is not the purpose of the State
Board of Health to institute legal pro
ceedings against any citizen of the
state for the violation of the rules and
regulations in protecting the public
health unless it becomes absolutely es
sential.
1t is the desire and aim of the Board
to aid and EDUCATE the people upon san
itary subjects in every practical way
and thereby create wholesome public
sentiment in behalf of the proper sani-
tary environment. 1t is campaign of
education and not one of persecution or
unjust oppression. There is no reason
why every citizen who has the interest
and welfare of his fellow men at heart
should not cooperate in this great
and in this way become a
of mankind.
We will begin the new year BY en-.
forcing all the rules and regulations of
the State Board of Health and feel sure
that we will have the hearty co-opera-
lion of all the citizens of Noxubee
county. Very respectfully
]. M. STANLEY,
County Health Officer.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear, There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is'by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by an inAamed
condition Of the mucous lining of the Eustschian
Tube. When this tube is inAamed you save a
umblins sound or imperfect hearing, and when
sentirely closed, deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out and
his tube restored to its NAL condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inAamed condition Of the mucous surface.
