But e'er the night had lipped away i hose smiling lips were dumb. I One shudder racko! his powerful f rame. One ponderous sigh escaped; Thru window blew a wraith of mist. And oe'er his form it draped. Ami faint footsteps they seemed to hear. As it passed across the room. And in Gethsemane. They too. Heard footsteps in the gloom. The hushed night seemed - ?rro\vtensed. And faces dark with fear Bowed down in solemn silent prayei For Deatfr was pa-ving near. A single touch from wisp-like hand. A breath upon the brow. And stilled forever h the arm That guides the lowly plow. N'o more into ti e fields he g With eager, willing hand.

H. Scott, of Roanoke, Va. "I suffered from weakness and a severe pain In my back. This pain unnerved me. and I did not feel like riolm. my work. I did not cars to ro pi noes, and fflt worn, tired, dav after day. My mother had taken Cardu!, and on seeing my condition she advised ; me to try It. I have never regretted doing so. I tr.ok t'.ree bottles and it built me up. I trained in weight, my color was bettor and the pain left my back. I am stronger than I had been in some time." Cardul Is sold by local druggists. NEWS PICK-UPS There's a hoy in town whose oc. pupation is going: around and chipping little stones with a tack hammer for Uncle Sam (while the boys in the pen in Atlanta bust l)ig ones for nothing) who eats in one of our :afes regularly. The other evening he sat down facing the window when his girl parked outside in a car. His pulse jot a little irregular and he got that far-away look in his eyes?and the ^ fiist thing we knew believe it or not, he Kl,t his knife and fork clean off the plate and was sawing on the table cloth. Four people from Cherokee county recently went to the Kentucky derby. And of all the people there, and of all the bets that were made, and of all the horses that ran. darned if one of them didn't cash in on Bold Venture. She said she had never been to a horse race before, either. If you wake up some of these nights and think a locomotive has hit the side of your house you can lay your bottom dollar it's just one thing ?u-50-stick-of-dynamite blast from the old soapstone quarry across the river. If you think this is the machine age, you may or may not be right. But evidently Dr. Ralph McDonald thinks so. For he used the word "machine" exactly 163 times in his speech Monday night. (And Kd Stud, still and Pug Rogers thought we were taking notes Ha, ha). Warren Sneed turned us in a note for our social columns this week: It read: "The Junior Woman's club held their regular meeting in the drug store every afternoon this week." You oughta know Warren, but watch out for the general convention Sunday. H. A. Mattox is a very thoughtful guy. He's now crusing around on the west coast some place, and when he wrote hi- dad the other night lie told him to kiss the editor for him. So just for spite we'll tell what he told us the other nigh:: "Imagine going to the West coast?and having to take your wife." Use the ironing board the next time. Ro?-ie. It doesn't hurt as much a- the iron, but it lasts longer. It is generally known that the first assignment a city editor gives i new reporter is a check-up of some public place to find out how many odd articles have been lost. We've been almost two years getting around to it this time, but we contacted Mr. Ware at the court house the other day and asked him if he ever found anything and this is the story we got: "We don't ever find anything bo. cause nobody's grot anything to lose around here." Of course you've herd that old joke apout the salesman who said to the store keeper, I'll bet you five dollars you've got four doors in this room". The store keeper, after business of looking around, says, "Nope there ain't but three. I'll bet you five." Then the drummer, picking up the money, says, "Oh, yeah? You Lose. There's a front door, a back door, a side door and a cuspidor. Well, the third door in the office of the commissioners of the county is set smack in the middle of the room. "That's so's they can hit it from all angles", Marion Simonds told us.
