The transition from long, lingering and painful si«kness to robust health marks an epoch in the life of the individual. Such a remarkable event is treasured, in the memory and the ageney whereby the good health has been attained is gratefully blessed. Hence it is that so much is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So many feel they owe their restoration to health to the use of the Great Alterative and Tonic. If you are troubled with any disease of kidneys, liver or stomach, of long or short standing you will surely find relief by use of Electric Bitters. Sold at 50 cents and $1 per bottle at M. C.

The husband is left to mourn the loss of a dear helpmeet and companion, and the children, the loss of their best earthly friend, a mother, but their loss is her eternal gain. Her light afflications which were but for a moment, worked for her, far more "exceeding and eternal weight of glory. Deceased united with the M. E. Church at the early age of 1#years and has been a- faithful member up to the day of her death. Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord. They rest from their labors. There remaineth therefore, a rest to the people of God. Oh, may Gob bo order events in the lives of this berev«d husband and these inotherless child^ta^nat when life's fitfifi, feverish dream iWhrer. they may aft meet where the cold\ ruthless and rftttiesB hand of death 'stall never sevA their heaven born ties olflbve. ••v
