FIRE IN CLOVERDJLE SUNDAY

Residence of Mary .1 Appleby, of Cloverdale, Totally Destroyed by Fire Sunday Afternoon Hiiihliiig Was Oik* of Putnam County's Landmarks, Being Over OO Years Old.

The residence of Mary J. Appleby, northwest corner of Market and West Main Streets, was totally destroyed by fire on Sunday about one o’clock p. m. The structure was a one-story frame building arected over 60 years ago and being thoroughly seasoned the flames spread so rapidly that the bucket brigade was powerless to save the building, but did succeed in saving nearly all the household effects. Brands from the burning building were carried a distance of four squares. The houses of Mrs. M. A. Devore, Charles Hunter and Jesse McCoy caught fire bait the blazes were extinguished by men on the roofs of the buildings, before serious damage resulted. The contents of the building were Insured for $100 which probably will cover the loss except for $50 cash which was burned. The building was insured for $300.

Milton Hillis. In loving remembrance of Milton ! Hillis, who departed this life Thursday. September 24, 1908. And now a gentle voice is hushed A warm true heart is stilled. And on thy loving tender brow, Is resting death’s cold chill. Thy hands are clasped upon thy breast We have viewed thy lovely brow And in our aching hearts we know Tis hard, so hard, the words; We must forever part. But dearest Lord, one we must lay to Thee In the peaceful graves embrace; But thy memory we will cherish Till we meet in Heaven’s place. We loved him, yes we loved him, But Jesus loved him more, And he more gently called him To yonder shining shore. A gentle voice said ‘Come’, And with farewell's spoken He ralnily entered home. The Saviour called and he departed He willed it for the best. Although It leaves Is broken hearted Yet to know it is eternal rest. But God in his wisdom has recalled The boon his love had given And though the body moulders here The soul is safe In heaven. And now there is one less friend on earth— One more in Heaven, Art thou so far, O dear one, thou dost not know What wondering looks we lift unto thee, up there. What visions of transcendent fairness grow About thy likeness so familiar here. What questioning thoughts of what thy like may be; What varied tasks thy growing powers employ; What fitness of sight and sound agree To crown thy fullness of completed

joy?

Nay, nay, thou art not far—we hold theo still. Our souls catch music from thy spirit’s tone; Something upon our hearts clear dews distill From wandering airs of that untroubled zone Where thou dost range—thou dost | not love us less. That In our narrow bounds we cannot guess To what great glory thou hast entered In. O gentle spirit, who hast gained so

It tells, with other symptoms, such as nervousness, headache, pains in tho loins, weight in the lower part of the body, that a woman’s feminine organism needs immediate attention. In such cases the one sure remedy which speedily removes the cause, and restores the feminine organism to a healthy, normal condition is LYDIA E.PINKHAM’S VEGETABLE C0MF3UKD Mrs. Will Young, of 0 Columbia Ave., Rockland, Me., says: " I was troubled for along time with dreadful backaches and a pain in mv side, and was miserable in ♦very way.

"We watched her breathing through the night And prayed that she might go As In her breast the wave of life Kept heaving two and fro. Our tears came then in showers, Her quiet eyelids closed and then She had another morn than ours. Her dear, sweet smiles no more we see No more her lips can kiss, And, yet, what comfort 'tis to know She reigns in Heavenly bliss. Heaven now retains our treasure, Earth her lonely casket keeps. And the sunbeams long to linger Where our darling mother sleeps. The moonlight nights are beaming Upon a silent grave Where sleepeth now, without' d reaming One we loved but could not save. Fondly loved by all who knew her. Many farewell tears were shed, Now her dreams of life arc over | And her gentle spirit fled.
