"Suffer little children to come
unto me . and forbid them jiot,
for of such is the kingdom of
Heaveu."
These words as tender and pure
as the dawn have been the com-
fort and consolation of bereaved
parents ever since they were ut-
tered by the Savior of the world,
nearly nineteen centuries ago.
How sweet is the thought that
the precious little darlings as a
rose are given to bud on earth
and burst into full blos«oai "on
the happy golden shore." Death
is at all times a solemn event,
but when the remorseless con-
queror enters the home and
fducks from the family fireside a
ittle child just stepping into the
dawn of the morning of life, then
some are tempted to ask "why
is it thus," "Philosophy being
unable to answer this question,
hands it to a higher tribunal" to
solve, but, "sometime we will un-
derstand."
Era Tennie Dedmon was born
July 9th 1900, died at 5 o'clock
November 23rd 1903. She was a
sweet affectionate child and was
loved by all who knew her. Her
love for her parents was almost
divine. On Sunday last she was
seized with an att&ck of croup.
The little sufferer realized that
she would never recover and told
her mother she was going to dio.
Everything that medical skill
could do or loving parents and
friends could suggest was done|
but all in vain and at 5 o'clock
Monday morning the precious
little soul "weary of the fretting
hindrances of the tlesh" forsook
its mortal tenement and winged
its flight back to the God who
gave it. The angels in that
bright and better land "beyond
the vale of tears" must have
rang anthems of joy when the
stainless little soul was added to
the number around the shining
throne of God.
"Two little hands to work for
Jesus" was her favorite song and
we know that her immortal soul
is with Jesus in that world where
sorrows never come. To the be-
reaved parents we can only say,
so live that when death comes to
you, be prepared for a happy re-
union with the little jeweil gone
before. Some poet has truly said
that,
There is no death.
The stars go down.
To rise upon some fairer shore
And bright in Heaven's Jewel-
ed crown.
They shine forevermorc.

From personal experience I
testify that DeWitt's Little Jbar-
ly Risers are unequalled as a liver
pill. They are rightly named be-
cause they give strength and en-
ergy and do their work with ease.

Thousands of people are using
these tiny little pills in prefer-
ence to all others, because they
are so pleasant and effectual.
They cure biliousness, [torpid liv-
er, jaundice sickheadache, consti-
pation, etc. They do not purge
and weaken, but cleanse and
strengthen. Sold by City Drug
Store.

A Remarkable Case.
One of the most remarkable
cases of cold, deep-seated on the
lungs, causing pneumonia, is that
of Mrs Gertrude E Fenner, Ma-
rion, Ind., who was entirely cur-
ed by the use of One Minute
Cough Cure. She says: "The
coughiug and straining so weak-
ened me that I ran down in
weight from 148 to 92 pounds. 1
tried a number of remedies to no
avail until I used One Minute
Cough Cure. Four bottles of
this wonderful remedy cured me
entirely of the cough, strengthen-
ing my lungs and restored me to
my normal weight, health and
strength," Sold by City Drug
Store.
