Mother's Friend
almoBt universally known, was a pillar in the church and had a most beau tiful Christian experience, au abiding faith that sustained her through dor sickness and intense suffering. Sue lived well, bhe died well.. This should console and bustaiu ner husband and son wtiom she loved so weu. Sne was not afraid to o. Sne lai&ed her eyeb, clasped her hands aud said farewell, Bald tell her friendB all good-bye for her, she was going home to Jesus Aunt Margaret has gone to receive her toward. Whatever be the belief* adrift in this transient world the departure of every devout Christian from tuis life, as did this Christian companion and mother and friend, touanes the nobiest chords of the soul and makes for hope a bnliiant btar Sne was a loving companion and a goou mother, a kind friend aud a faithful member of the Baptist church.

Doa-est mother, thou hast left us, Thy lovinn form no more we see Thy heaveuly Father dear hath called thee.
And from pain and sorrow thou art free
How oft'thy sweet voice hath taught us, When children gathered round thy knee, The way to start on life's rough pathway,
And helped us right from wrong to see. Aud when older thou didst teach us And cheer and comfort day by day But love's smile no more will greet us,
For thDU art gone from ns away.
We will miss your kind protection, Hut on have always done your part Some time we hope to be re united—
An unbroken family, never to part. Dear mother, thou art gone now To that land where all is day Hut we hope atrain to Bee thee
When the mist has cleared away.

Again death has slipped into a happy home and robbed it of one of its brightest members Without a moment's warning to parents, sisters or brothers, the news came that the much loved brother and son had met death by his own hand Elmer U. Mvers, son of Davison and Sarah Myers,'was born in Monroe county, Ind., Feb. 2, 1882, and died April 6, 1900 A more sad or snocking case has not been witnessed in this neighborhood for years. How sad to think that one BO voung, with such a bright future before him. despaired of life and in the darkness of the night, out in the hard and frosty road, drank the fatal drink, carbolic acid. The cause is still a mystery that none can ^olve, and being an obedient son. a kind and thoughtful brother, naturally he was loved devotedly by his parents and all who knew him. His home was so bright kindness reigned supreme therein. Then comes that question, why did he take his life? For one so young life held some pleasure. He was one of the most intelligent young men around here. His disposition was not of the wild and reckless kind. He enjoyed life, but gave more thought to business and to

"It isa surprising fact," says Prof. Houton, "that in my travels in all parts of the world, for the last ten yearB, I have met more people having used Green's August Flower than any other remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged liver and stomach, and for constipation. I And for tourists and salesmen, or for persons filling otlice positions, where headaches and general bad feelings from irregular habits exist, that Green's August Flower is a grand remedy.
