"I hope when l leave this world
l will go to a better one," is al eX-
preston frequently made. Dear
reader, upon what is your hope for
this great inheritance founded?
Upon keeping the moral laws?
Being honest with your fellow man
and dealing with him justly?
Abstaining from criminal habits?
Contributing to the church and to
charity? Keeping the sabbath?
Most assuredly you have no hope
unless you keep the moral law, and
you may be perfect in this respect,
and yet, as the Scriptures declare,
the law can not, justify you; it can
not give you eternal life, but by
Jesus Christ, Gods acceptable
sacrifice for sin, you can be justi-
fed from all things; you can accept
Him as your own personal Savior,
be received into Gods kingdom
and obtain an eternal Inheritance
in Heaven, that better world.
Have you accepted Him as your
Savior, and are you now keeping
His commandments? Then you
have sure hope; otherwise you
have no hope--I care not what
you are from a moral standpoint.
He is mans only delivefer- mans
only hope of eternal life (Saint
John iii 36.)

We regret to chronicle the death
of Grover Stagner, son of William
Stagner, last Friday. Grover was
a high-minded young man, just
entering his 22nd year. His sad
and early demise reminds us that
the young are subject to death also;
that frequently, just as it appears
like we are going to live on and on
for years, the withering winds of
death sweep over, our life and like
the grass beneath the scorching
sun we wither away; our physical
body returns to dust and our soul
goes out to meet the god who gave
it. We admonish his associates to
strive to emulate his life and live
it over again in your life.

Everybody in Columbia, Tenn,
knows f. Z McGavock, who owns
and operates large dairy business
an that city.
elf there was ever believer in
Tanlac," said r. M. Smiser, the
well-known Columbia, Tenn, drug
gist, lit is Mr.. McGavock, as he
talks about it all the time. But he
has right to talk, as no medicine
has ever helped anyone as much as
Tanlac has helped him. He really
does not look like the same man."
Here is Mr.. McGavock's statement:
II have now taken FIVE bottles of
Tanlac and have gained thirty
pounds. If you don't believe it,
right here / am, come and look at
me. I don't know what my trouble
was butI was all run down and was
unfit for work. [ think, though, it
must have been my stomach, as /
had no appetite and nothing seem
ed to agree with me. just kept
going down hill and losing weight
right along and nothing did me any
good until Smiser, the druggist,
told me about Tanlac.
" tried it on his recommends
tion and it helped me from the
first few doses. The medicine
seemed to take hold right at once,
and / began to eat better, sleep
better and feel better right from
the start. If anybody wants to
know whatsI think of Tanlac, ,.just
tell to come and see me. / am
right here in Columbia. Tanlac
mas simply made a new man of me
and / expect to tell all my friends
about what it has done in my case"
Referring to the above statement
q. f. Willis, Southern distributor
of Tanlac,- said:
"Tanlac is without exception the
greatest medicine of it's kind on the
American market today. The ex-
treme popularity Of Tanlac can
only be accounted for by the ex-
traordinary merit of the medicine.
The system, besides being purified,
iis toned up and invigorated, as the
preparation aside from its cleansing
the blood, revitalizes the constitu-
*ion, overcoming, as it quickly
seems to do, nervousness, indiges-
tion, non-assimilation of the food,
headaches, dizziness and other
troubles that are SO common"
Tanlac is sold in Camden exclu-
