Board Arrives.

The switch board for the
Dresden Rural Telephone Co.
reached here last Saturday and
has been installed by Mr.. Dun
ming, of Union City, special
representa- i've of the manufac-
turers of the board.
This board is modern and
complete in every detail, and
with the best operators in the
world, Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor,
patrons of the exchange will re-
ceive improved service. How
ever, it is very discouraging to
both Mr.. and Mrs. Tylor and
others that there are a num-
Der of lines leading into this
exchange which have been
down for months. They ought
to be pu up and made perma-
nent at once. There must be
some system for the up-keep of
these lines.

Death of Good Woman.

Martha Piety Asher (nee
Smith) was born June %, 1874,
died July q, 1917; age 43
years, one month and five days.
She professed faith in Christ at
the early age of ten years and
joined the Methodist Protest
ant church at Mt. Pleasant,
wheer she lived a faithful
member until August %, 1911,
when she, together with her
husband and two daughters,
joined the Missionary Baptist
church at Thompson's creek,
where she lived a very devoted
member, always regular in at
tendance at church and Sun
day school and faithful in all
her christian duties to her fam
lily, neighbors and church. Her
christian influence is especially
manifested in the lives of her
children, who were so faithful
to their mother.
She was married to T. H.
Asher Oct. IA, 1891. To this
union four children were born,
two boys and two girls-Sular,
Thomas, Susie and Cecil. She
leaves a devoted husband her
four children, three brothers
and four sisters and a host of
relatives and friends, who, to-
gether with her church, real
ize their great loss.
She often spoke of heaven
and her desire for her children
to meet her there. We would
not tell her loved ones not to
weep at the departure of low
ing wife, a devoted mother
and true friend, but we would
say, weep not as for one who
has no hope, for she leaves the
blessed assurance that she is
at rest with her Savior, where
we hope to meet her.
