LARGE CROWD PAYS RESPECT
Funeral of Rev. L. T0mme Took Place at Baptist Church at 10
 O'clock Friday

One of the largest crowds that ever attended a funeral service in Carlisle was present to pay a last token of re- spect to Rev. L. Tomme the deceased pastor of the Baptist church, which took place at that edifce at 10 o'clock last Friday morning October 22nd.
 The stores of the town closed out of respect to the dead pastor, from which both proprietors and employees joined the large crowd to witness the obsequies of this good man whom they so often met in their daily walks of life, and who join in extending their sympathies to the bereaved family in the deepest grief that could befall them.
 The children of the public schools who attended the Baptist Sunday School were permitted to attend, also others of the school who desired were dismissed so that they might attend. Rev. Tomme was favorite among the Sunday School children of his church and grief could be seen written upon their countenances as they filed into the church to hear the last funeral rites over the re- mains of the man they loved and re- spected in life.
 We had known Rev. Tomme for the past four years and found him ever ready and willing to do all he could at any time for suffering hu- manity. His heart was always full of kind words to cheer the afflicted. He was always ready with cheerful words for his friends and acquaint- ances when he met them at his church, on the street, or at public gatherings of any kind whatsoever. | There will always be a green spot in our memory for this wholesouled, good and worthy man. The good he accomplished while here has shown itself in many instances in the past and the results of his many whole some efforts will show themselves in Carlisle in future years to come. In the passing of Rev. Tomme a good man has gone to That undiscovered country, from whose bourne no tray eer returns"
 The funeral services were conduct ed by Rev. Walls of Lonoke, who was assisted by Rev Pearson of Lonoke and Rev. Bogard of Carlisle. Revs. Fizer, Chelan and Lilly and MT. l. A. Fuller made few very appropriate remarks at the request of Rev. Walls. The services were very impressive.

JOSEPHINE is twenty six. Her
- best friend is thirty five. Josephine,
Of course, feels just as she did when
she was twenty -one, and two, and
three and four. She likes the same
things. does the same things. aud still
finds the same style of clothes bccom-
ing. Although she and Ruth 1re best
friends and go everywhere together,
know the same people, have the same
feelings about everything, Josephine
still has that childish idea about being
thirty fvc. : As she stands upon the
doorstep of twenty six and looks for
ward along the road to thirty five. she
has the feeling that IL is-oh, fifteen
or twenty years distant.
When | get to be thirty FIVE she
decides. why, oh, won't It be awful
But have long way to 60" She has
the greatest admiration for Ruth be-
cause she doesn't show her thirty five
years at all. She is just as full Of life
and energy and foolishness as she was
ten years ago. Instead of looking upon
Josephine as mere child, as might be
expected Of n person of her age, she
seems to accept her as an equal and n
congcnial companion.
But the other day Josephine had a
shock. Ruth brought her niece. a girl
OF twenty one. to the club where they
always lunch together. Josephine was
late for lunchS and joined them after
| they were seated Mt the table. To her
amazement, the younger girl rose po-
