Christian Endeavor.

On account Of the Chautauqua we had
no meeting last Sunday evening. The
Sunday before, however. We had asplen-
did meeting. There we're only few
present, but God in His great goodness
and mercy wonderfully fulfilled His
promise when he said When one or
two are gathered together in My name,
will be in their midst. Truly, He
was in our midst.
Miss Lula Parks gave us solo which
was very much enjoyed.
Now, members, words fail us so that
we cannot express our great desire for
you and the profound sorrow that lies
hidden deep in our hearts that you have
neglected your duty, privilege and pleas
ure in not meeting with us each Sunday
evening. Could tears bring you back
we would weep and weep and weep for
you, but pleading will not, so what
would weeping do.
We have about sixty members on
roll; at our last meeting there we're four
teen present, so where are the other
thirty-fve or six. All we can do is beg
and plead with you. II you will not
come for the good and enjoyment you
may get out OF it, Just earnestly think
OF the pledge you signed before God
when you joined the society and see il
any thing was said about being present
at the meetings.
For the one who is pleading with you
in the name OF Jesus and in behalf OF
the society, she has derived more bene-
fit from the Christian Endeavor than
perhaps any religious service. Please
come on back, we need you and beg
you; do not be dead weight on the So
ciety, but be living and active. There
is much for each of us to do il we will
but do it.
Visitors and all, we will be glad to
have you come, and join or visit either.

Revamped Proverbs.
BY DOROTHY DIX.


1t is wise father whose children are
not on to him.
A woman and her money are soon
parted.
Never look a gift compliment in the
mouth.
Money makes the mare 60, the lack
OF it makes her balky.
People who live in glass houses should
pull down the blinds.
1t is better to have been engaged and
Tilted than never to have been proposed
to at all.
Early to bed and early to rise and
you will miss everything worth seeing
There are just as many suckers IN
the matrimonial sea as have ever been
landed.
The interesting die early, bores live
on forever.
There's no use in weeping over a
trumped ace.
You never miss the gasoline until the
tank goes dry.
One beau on the spot is worth two al
distance.
Beauty is only skin deep, but catch
ing a husband is skin game anyway.
The things a woman doesn't know
about her husband she doesn't worry
over.
Give wife dollar and she'll spend
| five.
Take care Of the jolly and the guar
rels will take care Of themselves.
Train up a parent in the way he
should go.
Where there's will there's row in
the family.

HOW TO GET STRENGTH

after any sickness is purely matter Of
nourishrnent, whether the attack was
an ordinary cold or severe illness; the
weakened forces cannot repulse disease
germs, and this IS why a relapse Is 50
often fatal or why chronic weakness often
follows sickness.
Restoring strength TO millions Of people
for forty years has proven the real need
for taking SCOTS Emulsion after any
sickness; nothing equals it - nothing
ctsunpares Win Il. It's pure. medicinal
nourisInneHt, Tree from alcohol q opiates,

In Memorian.

One Of the deepest shadows that fell
athwart our pathway was the death Of
Mrs. Anna Mirah Flack. She was born
10 Gutherie, KY, Sept. 2, 1s47, died at
7 the home OF her son, Thomas Flack, at
Woodland Mills, Tenn, April 10, 1914,
at $50 q. M, being at death &c years,
S months and 8 days old. She joined
the Baptist Church at an early age and
| lived a beautiful Christian life until
death. Her maiden name was Anna
Mirah Isbell. She was sweet, gentle
woman, highly respected, sweet spirited
and Christlike. A sweeter, purer wo-
man never lived in our midst Her life
seemed one long prayer and touched
with benediction every one with whom
she associated. She was interested IN
the progress OF the church at home and
abroad; regular reader of the church
papers; a regular contributor to the
various enterprises OF the church. A
meeting with her was to pass into
patch OF sunshine while passing under
the clouds on the highway Of life. A
visit to her home was an oasis where
the pilgrim on life's journey was cheered
and refreshed. Time would fail me TO-
adequately portray the virtues OF this
beloved woman. Her mission on earth
! is ended, but the influences in her life
for good will never end. OF her truly
it may be said, THAT the world hath
been made better for her having lived
in it." No woman in the community
was more loved and honored than she,
and none would have been missed more.
A pure Christian, tender mother has
been called in the morning OF a happy
existence to an inheritance Of eternal
happiness. What she endured OF toll
and suffering would be too sad to men
ton but for the patient, happy Christian
spirit in which they were borne. All
4 is bright, as we think Of the future for
her. The cloud is here and it seems
very dark. Nothing but the light Of the
Gospel Of Christ could ever dispel gloom
like this.
j She leaves to mourn her loss four
children, Will d., Mrs. Jennie Flack,
Mrs. Bethel Deweese, Of Moscow, KY,
and Thomas Flack, of Woodland.
i The funeral ceremonies we're conduct
ed by. her pastor, Rev. Huey, after
which the body was laid to rest in Salem
Cemetery, where a large concourse OF
sorrowing friends and relatives had met
to pay the last sad tribute to good
woman gone. She has gone to share
the rest that waits a life we'll spent and
work we'll done. Farewell, devoted
friend, until that glorious morning that
heralds the eternal day OF Joy and full
ness OF love at Gods right hand. To
the bereaved children the writer offers
his profoundest sympathy and pleads
that you live the life as did she, and
finally when the perils Of this world
shall have been ended with you that
you may clasp the hand Of your dear
mother, across the beautiful river Of
Jordan, where all is sunshine, and sor-
row never comes.
