In Memoriam

In sad, but loving, remembrance
of Miss Virginia Taylor, who depar-
ted this life one month ago today,
January Is, 1919.
In the lonely Greenlawn cemetery,
Where no trees their branches
wave,
Lies my dear and loving sweetheart,
In the cold and silent grave.
Often from my memory comes a bit
ter cry,
Why, Oh, why did my dear Virginia
die?
Then comes the answer, so solemn
and sweet,
Your dear little girl is only asleep.
I'm thinking of her,
Yes, I'm all alone.
And memory is the only thing -
That grief can call it's own.
There's a page in my life 1 will nev-
er forget;
From Heaven she is smiling on me.
I shall never, no, never, be happy
again,
Till I'm safe in Heaven with thee.
By her friend,
ELISHA PHILLIPS.

Grandma wrote n note. Take this

So Peter went to Mrs. Bells. She

Peter forgot his holler feeling and

Bi-Nesia Stops
Stomach Trouble
Or Money Back
INSTANT RELIEF GUARANTEED

Recently a writer on the treatment
OF stomach troubles, who has
claimed that practically all stomach
trouble Is due to acidity. decided to
put his theory to the test. Every
sufferer from stomach trouble was
told to take a teaspoonful Of pure
Bi-ncsia or two or three of the B.
grain tablets in n little water imme-
diately after eating or whenever
pain was felt. The test completely
indicated his theory; for immedi-
ate relief was indicated in nearly
every one of the first hundred re-
ports received. showing conclusively'
that the trouble had been due to
stomach acid which, as is well
known, is instantly neutralized by
Bi-nesia. Since making this test.
the well known manufacturing
chemists who have specialized in
preparing pure Bi-nesia exclusively
for stomach use have arranged to
place in every package of genuine
Bi-nesia. either tablet or powder
form. a binding guarantee contract
OF satisfaction or money back, proof
positive of their belief that nearly
every so-called dyspeptic is really
suffering from acidity and their con-
fidence that genuine Bi-nesia will
Instantly neutralize stomach acid.

STRIKE ON ARMOUR
CLAIMS ANNOUNCED

A rich strike has recently been
made in the Armour Copper COM

Of Florence. The vein is 18 inches
in width, and although it's length has
not as yet been fully determined,
it is I'elieved that a good many tons
of 80 per cent bismuth ore will be
uncovered. This property has been
under steady development work for
some time and this strike only tends
to increase the rapiditysof the pres

been ordered to take care of the

company has employed and no ef-
