EHD OF A PATHETIC LIFE.
Mooroe Enquirer.
. Mrs. Martha Jane Harris, widow
of the late Mr. Dorsey Harris, of Bu
ford township, died at the county
home last Friday afternoon - and ' was
buried at Macedonia church on Satur
day .'afternoon. -The lives of Dorsey
Harris and his wife were pathetic ones
They started life' together with fair
prospects : and bright hopes.- They
made a good living and were laying
a little something by for old
age or
for that "rainy day" which comes in
most lives. Sickness came. For
years the husband was confined to his
house with rheumatism. Nothing
was made on their little farm, except
what the wile eked ouL This did not
equal, the expenditure, skimp and
and save however carefully they
might. Debt and poverty came band
in hand to their abode. Old age and
blindness came on the wife -and her
ever willing hands could do no more.
They had no child to be a stay and.
support to them. And One day tbr
drawn and crippled old husband and
his blind wife knocked fit the door oT
the county home for the aged and In
firm and asked for admission.' That
was fourteen ytar ago. Two yean,
after that the husband died. The
wife remained' until the date above
named, always submissive, never
complaining of her lot. '
Mrs. Harris was one whost.
Christianity was known to ay who
came in contact with her. . She was
tried ip the 'fire and prove I to b
pure gold. Those who visted Mrs.
Harris- and read to her from the
Bible, as she requested all who earn,
and spent any time with her to do,
remember that she would always
say, "Head that chapter where i'
says 'In my Father's bouse are many
mansions.'" Poor old -oul, sitting
in, the house of charity, the onl)
home offering a friendly roof, asking
that she might hear read from tht
great old Book about mansions in th
house of the great . All Father
there was unutterable pUbos in in it,
and yet there was a faith -and un
shaken hope which challenges admir
ation. - Mrs. Harris was a little over
88 years old. She bad been for many
years ; a member of the Baptist
church.

In spite of all the progress made iu
modern aud elegant Paris barrels of
waste are piled up on the streets in
front of luaur buildings on beautiful
boulevards la the early morning hours.
and it Is the privilege and In fact the
mission of the ragpickers to examine
this refuse.
They have use for everything, and
but little Is left after they have passed,
their thoroughness being one reason
why the system is still allowed. Ev

rags are gathered for paper manufac

when In secular company was claimed
by a "witty clergyman who, having beeu
asked to carve oue day, said. "Inas
much as you demand It. I wilt carve
the fowl according to Biblical princ
plea." "Yes," exclaimed the hostess.'
"act according to the Scriptures." The
theologian therefore began the carv
ing. The baron was tendered the head
of the fowl, the baroness the neck, the
two daughters a wing apiece and the
two sous a first joint, the carver re
taining the remainder. -
"According to what Interpretation do
you make such a division?" inquired
the host of his guest as he regarded
the clergyman's heaping plate aud the
seant portions doled out to the family.'
"From an Interpretation of my own,"
replied the clerical wit. "As the mae
ter of your house the head belongs to .
you by right; the baroness, being meet
near to yeu, should receive the neck,
which Is u rarest the head; in the whigs

Things That Happen 'at the Bottom
ef the Saa.
Naturalists dispute m to the quantity
of light at the bottom of the sea. Ani
mals from below Tuo rat boms either
bar no eyes or faint Indications of
them, or else their eyes are very targe
and protruding.
Another strange thing is that If the
creatures iu the tower depths have any
color It la orange or red or reddish
orange. Sea anemones, corals, shrimps
and ' crabs have this brilliant color.
Sometimes It la pure red or scarlet,
and lo many specimens It Inclines to
ward purple. Not a green or blue fiab
Is found.
The orange red is the fish's protec
tion, for the bluish green light In the
bottom of the ocean makes the orange
or the red Ash appear of a neutral tint
and hides It from Its enemies. Many
animals are black, others neutral lo
color. Some fish are provided with
boring tails, so that they can burrow
to toe mud
The surface of the submarine moun
tain te covered with shells, like an or
dinary sea beach, showing that it Is the
feasting place of vast shoals of car
nivorous animals.
A codfish takes a whole oyster Into
It mouth, cracks the shell, digests the
meat and ejects the shell. Crabs crack
the shells and suck out the meat. This
accounts for whole mounds ot shells
that are often found.
Not a flshboBe is ever found that
is net honeycombed; by the boring
shellfish and falls to pieces at the
teucb ef the hand. This shows what
destruction is constantly going on .in
these depths.
If a ship sinks at sea with all on
beard it will be eaten by fish, with the
exception of the metal, and that will
corrode aud disappear. Not a bone of
a human body will remain after a few

' For
Sprains
7 , -
Sloan's Liniment' is the best
remedy for sprains and bruises.
It quiets the pain at once, and
can be applied to the tenderest
part without hurting because it
doesn't need to be rubbed all
you have to do is to lay it on
lightly. 'It is a powerful prepa
ration and penetrates instantly
relieves any inflammation and con
gestion, and reduces the swelling.
Here's the Proof.
Mr. L. Roland, Bi .hop ef Scran
ton. Pa. says: "On the -th of
this present month, as I was leaving
- the building at noon foi lunch, I
slipped and fell, spraining my -wrist.
1 returned in the afternoon, and at
' four o'clock I could not hold a pen
cil in my hand. I returned home
later and purchased a bottle of
Sloan's
Lininierii
and used it five or six times before
I went to bed, and the next day I
was able to go to vork and use ray
hand as usual." -
Sloan's Liniment
is an excellent ami-.
septic and germ
killer heals cuts, -burns,
wounds and ,
contusions, and wiQ
