To the Editor of The News-Herald: Our venerable friend and neighbor J. A. Puett, who died at the home of his, son, T. E. Puett, on the morning of the 4th inst, having been a good man, of extraordinary moral worth, de serves more from his fellow citi zens than a mere passing notice of his birth and death. He was perhaps the oldest man in iiurke county, being in his 90th year. He served in the U. S. Army in the Indian war, or in moving the Indians from the border of this State. He served his county as sheriff and deputy sheriff and magistrate for many years. And along with this he served the church and his God as class-leader and Sunday school superintendent for many years, resigning in favor of younger men. While he was a man of appar ent delicate physical structure. he stood among the giants of vital force and energy. He was strict Methodist of the Wesleyan type for perhaps three quarters or a century; he was a student of the Bible, and from this and the phenomena and natural handywork of God that came in his vision he drew the heavenly inspiration which moulded his character and life and made him a citizen of the Kingdom of heaven. His idea of human greatness was measured by a high idea of true worth and christian excel lence. He lived above and out of reach r il 1 ill -r-r- oi tne smuttea raooie. lie was truth incarnate, if men reach that point He knew no local gossip. His comment on the misguided, the wayward and the fallen in repu tation and character , were few, and gentle as the morning dew that washes the dust from the petals of the rose and the lily. -XT m . m tie was a servant oi tne com mandments; the Golden Rule was the monitor -that stood at the door of his conscience with the drawn sword of the spirit while the spirit of retaliation and re venge passed up to the court of Him to whom vengeance - be longeth. It maybe well said of him that he followed closely the line dotted by the hand of duty from early manhood until the mercury of life almost touched the century mark. Kindness to his family, courte sy to his friends, love and charity to his neighbors, and hospitality to all were his prominent and ever present characteristics. The end of such a life .must be unalterably full of unspeakable joy, having through family afflic tion and self abnegation crossed all the troubled waters of life, and while the lengthened shadow of life reaches from the sepulcher of day back -to the glittering ffates of morning, he casts his eyes morningward over the land scape of his life and sees nothing but good deeds rising like moun tains in the dim distance await ing: the cilting and penciling of he rising sun of the resurrection "Mark the purest man, and be hold the upright man, for the end of that man is peace." J. G. Hood.

When a man thinks seriously of marriage what usually hap pens? He remains single. Does a girl ever think of any thing but marriage? Only how to get married. Should a man marry a erirl for her money? No, but he should not allow her to become an old maid because she is a rich girl. Is an engagement as good as marriage? It's better. When the minister says, "Da you take this man for better cr worse," what does he mean? The bride-groom's people con strue it one way, and the bride's people interpret it another. It is very sad. . When a man marries has he seen the end of his trouble? Yes, but it is usually the wrong end. death was on his heels. . Jes9e P. Morris, of Skippers, Va., had a close call in the spring- of 1906. He says: "An attack of pneumonia left me so weak and with such a fear ful cough that my friends declared con sumption had me, and death was on my heels. Then I was persuaded to try Dr. Ding-'s New Discovery. It helped me immediately, and after taking twj and a half bottles I was a well man again.
