B. F. KiboufR was born in Wise county, State of O16 Virginia, June Il, 1859, died May 8, 1916, aged 56 years. Much of his life was spent teaching in Virginia and Kentucky. He and his family came to Arkansas from Virginia II years ago.

 All was done that devoted loved ones could do, but, alas, Mot our will, but Thine be done. ''
 He was a member of the Baptist church and lived a devoted, Christian life.
 The following was the last selection of poetry read and marked by Mr. Kilbourn:
 LET ME GO. Let me go, the day is breaking,
 Long l would not tarry here; Oft my heart with grief is aching,
 And l long to enter there, Where no sorrow is or woe Day is breaking, let me go. But when clouds around me hover,
 Then, o Lord, to Thee 1 cry; Spare me till 1 strength recover,
 Let me not in darkness die; Let me see the breaking day, Then to glory speed my way. Let me go, my spirit longeth
 Heavens bright courts to enter in, Where no evil ever cometh,
 No more curse or deafpszSssSin. Gently there the waters flow; Day is breaking, let me go. Day is breaking! 1 would ponder
 On these realms of dazzling light; Lose myself in holy wonder,
 Have my faith exchanged for sight, Gladly leaving all below Day Is breaking, let me go Let me go, my all committing
 To thy tender, guardian care; All love to Thee committing
 In humility and prayer. Let them reap the prayers l SOW; Day is breaking, let me go. From the bondage of corruption,
 From mortality I'd flee; l would put on interruption,
 Glorious immortality, Then of victory I would sing, Where, o graves, thy deadly sting"

 A lady of Green Forest is the proud possessor of a dog that appears to realize that times are hard. The other day the afore- said canine went out foraging and soon returned with a shoe in his mouth. The next day he went out and returned with the mate, and the third day he came in with a coat. The shoes are in good condition, but the coat is not so good. Any one bereft of such articles can reclaim them by calling at the Pleasant Hotel.

Men of Science.

Men of science form, as it were, an
organized army, laboring on behalf OF
the whole nation, and generally under
its direction. and at its expense, to
augment the stock Of such knowledge
as may serve to promote industrial
enterprise, to increase wealth, to adorn
life, to improve political and social re-
lations and to further the moral devei-
opment of individual citizens. After
the immediate practical results OF
their work we forbear to inquire; that
we leave to the instructed. We are
convinced that whatever contributes
to the knowledge of the forces of ma
ture or the powers of the human mind
is worth cherishing, and may, IN its
own due time, bear practical fruit, very
often where we should least have ex-
pected it.-Helmholtz.

Operation Was a Failure.

A young married man, whose wife
sometimes talks in her sleep, recently
underwent an operation for the re-
moval of his tonsils. His health has
been benefited, but 1t is hard to over
come the habit of years and he still
slumbers with his mouth open at times.
The other night he awoke with a
start and a gurgle in his throat. His
wife, too, had been disturbed, although
not enough to awaken her, 80 It was
her subconscious self which spoke
when she said irritably: Il don't see
why when they are taking out the ton
sis they don't cut out the snore. too"

Chinese servants.
The servants in a Chinese family al

The servants In Chinese family are
not expensive, so far as wages are
but they cost great deal
In perqulsites. They rarely receive
more than two dollars a month, but
they are given their food, and they
help themselves lavishly to anything
they may desire. They dress them
selves from the old clothing OF the
family, freely take the hairpins and
the toilet articles of the mistress,
clothe their children from the common
wardrobe and, in fact, are part OF
the family. The Chinese lady and
her servants gossip together as
friends, rooms are entered without
warming, conversations interrupted
and suggestions offered which, to the
foreigner, seem to be of the grossest
impertinence. This intimacy is due
partly to the fact that many OF the
servants are distant relatives. Practi'
cally the only news from the outside
world that comes to the woman behind
the walls is brought by her sons or by
the servants. She makes few visits
and these usually at the home of some
relative, entering her closely-covereo
chair within her courtyard and being
carried swiftly to the courtyard OF the
house where she is to visit

The Rural Credits Law.

The time is near at hand when the
farmers of the United States will be
furnished easy means o! paying for
their land or of buying more farms to
increase their holdings. Keen inter-
est is being manifested in the inaugu-
ration of the new rural credits law.
The trainers Of the law express the
view that sImerS will be quick to
take advantage of the amortization
plan provided by the new act. The
term 'anOrua..n' means a method
of paying a &C.. . such manner as to
,extinguish both principal and interest
at the close of given period.
Under the new plan provided by
the rural credits law, it will be posi-
BILE for farmer to borrow money on
his land and to take as many years as
he may desire to pay off the loan.
The annual payments will be of the
same amount and the last payment
will liquidate the debt in full. Each
annual payment, of course, will dis
charge a part of the original debt.
For instance, should a farmer, when
the new law is in full operation, bor-
row 81, 900 at per cent. interest, the
annual interest charge would be $50
Ii the borrower should pay only $50
wear, he never could reduce the orig
inal amount of the loan. He would,
of course, continue to owe $1,000.
Under the amortization plan en-
hodied in this new piece of legislation
the farmer, should he pay 5000 a
wear, or 5000 more than the yearly
interest charge, would pay his debt
in full at the end of twenty years. In
this way the loan of $1,000 actually
would be paid off with S6O4.SO COM
puted simple interest at the rate OF D
percent-a total payment of s., 6O4.SO.
1t will be possible, it is asserted, I'M
der the new law, for farmer to bor-
row 81, 600 or more on the same scale
of repayment on an unrecallable con-
tract for twenty years at rate OF in
terest little above per cent.
Provision is made in the new law,
under which borrower may choose
the length of time he wishes his debt
10 run, provided the period is not
less than five years nor more than
forty years.
