LONG SUFFERING

.Death Angel Visits the Home of Chair-

U. S. Jackson and Takes

man

the Wife and Mother.

Like unto the dove circling about the beautiful maiden, and finally, fluttering to her extended palm, rests in ease and contentment, so the angel of death, that had so often been near, hesitates, and takes to its heavenly home the lovely soul of a dear wife and mother, who had .long waited its coming and anticipated the beauties of that home not made with hands eternal in the heavens.

Mrs. Mary J. Jackson, wife of Uriah S. Jackson, chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee, died Friday evening at 4 o'clock at her home on North State street, this city. Funeral at the residence Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by the Rev. Robert W. Thompson, pastor of the Primitive Baptist church. Oak S. Morrison, undertaker in charge.

Besides the husband four children survive their mother—Mrs. Fio B. Myers, Mrs. Kate J. Boyd. Omer S. and Earl Jackson.

Mrs. Jackson was sixty-six years old and had lived in this county all her life. She was born and reared in Vernon township and came to Green field when her husband was elected sheriff, many years ago. She was always devoted to her home above all else and was seldom away. Physically she had been frail during most of the time of her life in Greenfield and of late years seldom left the residence, occasionally riding out with her husband or some member of the family. Several times during tbe last few months it was thought she could not live, but she always rallied.

Mrs. Jackson was reared in the neighborhood of the Primitive Baptist church and the doctrines of this organization have always been her religious belief. Her maiden name was Mary J. Thomas, daughter of George C. Thomas, a native of North Carolina.

Resolutions of Hancock County Bar. To the Bar Association of the Hancock circuit court: Your committee heretofore appointed to prepare resolutions of respect, upon the occasion of the death of Mrs. Mary J. Jackson, wife of Uriah S. Jackson, submit the following:

We, the members of the Bar of the Hancock circuit court, with a deep sense of sorrow, have received knowledge of the death of Mrs. Mary J. Jackson, wife of Uriah S. Jackson and mother of Omer S. Jackson, honored brothers in our profession and members of our Bar.

Her demise took place upon the 23rd day of September, 1910, at her home on North State street, in the City of Greenfield, Indiana.

The bar being in special session assembled on account of the sad occurence, deem it appropriate to place on the records of our court a testimonial, evincing our appreciation and esteem of the life and character of the wife and mother who has thus departed from our midst.

Mrs. Jackson was noted among her many frends and neighbors for her untiring and sacrificing devotion to her home and family this she regarded as the first and highest duty of a wife and mother. She received the truest pleasure in life making those about her comfortable and contented, and her life is a beautiful exemplification of womanly devotion to home. Those who were the daily and constant recipients of her kindly acts and offices are the unfortunate ones who will most sadly miss her from their daily life, and to these and to all other of her friends we extend our deepest sympathy and express our full appreciation of their great and irreparable loss.

Mrs. Jackson's great love of home made her of a retiring and quiet disposition and she seldom mingled with the social world, yet the devoted life she lived and her beautiful character were widely known and she was universally loved and respected.

The home is the foundation of our social fabric, without which it can not exist indispensible to the home is the dovoted wife and mother.

Society in general will profit in the emulation of the virtues so beautifully exemplified in the life and character of Mrs. Jackson.

We, therefore, in memory of her womanly virtues, most willingly and lovingly give expression to this tribute of our highest respect, and to the bereft husband, our brother, in tbe hour of his inconsolable grief, and to the surviving relatives we give assurance of our profoundest sympathy and condolence.

Respectfully Submitted. Chas. L. Tindall, Wm. Ward Cook,

Wm. A. Hough.

Obituary

Mary J. Jackson, the wife of Hon. Uriah S. Jackson, was born on the 28th day of July, 1844, and departed this life on the 23rd day of September 1910, aged sixty-six years, one month and twenty-five days.

She was the daughter of the late George C. and Diana J. Thomas and was a native of Vernon township, in Hancock county, Indiana.

On the 8th day of March, 1865, she became the wife of U. S. Jackson, being married in the house where she was born, and together they began the battle of life in which she proved the most valiant soldier. To this union there was born seven children: Millard M. Jackson, Rosa E. Jackson and Edward S. Jackson, who have preceded her to the Great Beyond and Flo Myers, the wife of Ora Myers, the present mayor of the city of Green field Earl Jackson, Kate Boyd and Omer S. Jackson, who now mourn their greatest loss.

She leaves three little grandchildren, Mary Josephine Boyd, Vera Boyd and Dorothy Jackson, all of whom were loved and adored by her and their presence was to her a ray of sunshine that seemed to soothe a fevered and aching brow.

Mrs. Jackson was a noble woman to her husband a faithful and loving wife, constant ever to minister to his requests and anxious to assist him in his many undertakings. She was to him not only a gloving and devoted wife but also an adviser, and her bright intellect and constant reading made her well fitted for this place in their home.

As a mother she was ever at the family circle no mother was ever more devoted to her home and family. She shared them in their joys she encouraged them when disappointment was at hand, she mingled with them her tears when sorrow and affliction was upon them. When sickness was in her home she was kind, patient and attentive, and so great was iher demotion that it could be said: "No kiss is like the mother's kiss,

No hand so soft and warm." For years she had been a constant

James F. sufferer, almost at times an invalid

«. 1^%

but during all that time she bore her suffering with that patience and fortitude that was characteristic of her through life.

She loved to live, she enjoyed her home. Very few times in the last quarter of a century has she been absent from the home. Her ambition was to see her family succeed and she gave her entire time to the welfare of her children.

At all these times she has been a true christian woman and a devoted member of the Baptist church. Her life is a wonderful example of the highest christian womanhood, full of the best thought that inspires the christian soul, and made up of acts that were so ennobling as to cause her to be loved by all.

The last few months of her life were such as to try her patience and courage, being confined to her bed of sickness almost constantly. Still, as the Angel of Death approached she never murmured nor complained, but to the last displayed her interest in the home and family and when the hour arrived when she was to be called to the Heavenly Realms, in the presence of her husband and family, she passed calmly and sweetly into peaceful sleep.

And still she sleeps. The winters of her life have passed and were conquered by her goodness. The springtime of Eternity is blooming now to welcome her forever. For her good deeds here she is given Eternal happiness and constant joy. The ship that bore her life away is now sailing calmly and sweetly in waters made pure by Heaven's dew and is now floating in that harbor which leads to that city of Eternal bliss.

It can be said of her: "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord, from henceforth, yea saith the spirit that they may rest from their labors and their works do follow them."

G0MF0RTIN6 WORDS

Many Greenfield Household Will Find Them So.

To have the pains and aches of a bad back removed to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous urinary disorders is enough to make any kidney sufferer grateful. To tell how this great change can be brought about will prove comforting words to hundreds of Greenfield readers.

Ira W. Armstrong, S. Madison St., Knightstown, Ind., says: "I have no reason to change my opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills, which I publicly expressed in the fall of 1907. For some time I was annoyed by a dull, nagging pain-in my back and hips. The passages of the kidney secretions were irregular and caused me no end of annoyance. Hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills, I got a box and soon after I began their use, I found them to be just the remedy I needed. The contents of one box of Doan's Kidney Pills entirely cured the attack and during the past three years whenever I have taken this remedy, it has benefited me. Other members of my family have also used Doan's Kidney Pills with the best of results."

PERQXIDECREAM

For those particular people who desire a beautiful complexion and who want to keep the skin at its best all the time—keep it clear, flexible, smooth and give it the glow of health—there is nothing as good as A. D. S. Peroxide Cream, because it contains a small quantity of Hydrogen Peroxide, the great antiseptic healing and cleansing agent.

Its action upon a red, blotched, pimply, scaly, unsightly skin is very pronounced.

When used as a massage it has a tendency to eradicate wrinkles and to nourish the tissues. It is a mild bleach—perfectly harmless and will not grow hair.

This is one of the leading preparations made by the American Druggists Syndicate, which is composed of 12,000 responsible druggists, and it is but one of the famous A. D. S. Peroxide Family.

The others—equally as good, equally as beneficial and just as popular—are A. D. S. Peroxide Tooth Powder, which whitens, cleanses and preserves the teeth A. D. S. Peroxide Tooth Paste for the same purpose, put up in a different form A. D. S. Peroxide Soap, a very superior soap because it heals as well as cleanses A. D. S. Peroxide Foot Powder, for tired, aching, burning feet, and last, but by no means of least importance, is A. D. S. Peroxide of Hydrogen, the great disinfectant and germicide now being used in so many homes.

All of these A. D. S. preparations can be obtained at any A. D. S. drug store.
