W. vVaters Wednesday evening, Feb. v9, a daughter. After a short but violent illness Mrs. W. W. Waters died at 5:45 o’clock Tuesday morning, Feb. 25. 'rtie sad intelligence was a surprise to many of her friends in. this place. Little hope for her recovery had been entertained by her physicians owing to the serious nature of her malady. Mrs. Dollie Weilt Waters was the for the season.-W. M. Bradley mgr. We have some odds and ends of eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs W. P. Weilt. She was born near Oil City, Pa., April 26, 1884, and at the time of her death was nearly 24 years of age. Her early educa tion and training were received in her native state, and when she was heavy shirts, sweaters, etc., selling about 17 years old her family for 50 cents on the dollar at Glaz- moved from the north and came to ener’s, Rosman, N. C, f28t2 Brevard. Here she grew up into young womanhood, and formed many ties of friendship and affec tion among the young people of the town. On Dec. 11, 1906, she was married to William W. Waters, of this place. It was with the bright est hopes that the young couple looked forward to the future and laid their plans for a happy home and useful life. But Death is no respecter of persons, no regarder of tender ties. She was cut off at the very moment when life was begin ning to unfold to her its deepest joys and richest promises. The funeral services, conducted by Revs. Tuttle and Chedester, were held Wednesday morning at 11 o’clock at the Baptist church, and continued at Oak Grove ceme tery, where the interment took place. Mrs. Waters was a consistent member of the Baptist church, zealous in the performance of her relii^btiV duties, and withal a wo man of -sweet disposition and win ning'manners and the idol of her parents and her husband. The be reaved family, the stricken hus band and motherless infant receive the sympathy of many friends. CARD OF THANKS. It is with a feeling of deepest ap preciation that we take this oppor tunity oi expressing our sincere thanks for the many acts of sympa thy and attention shown us during our recent bereavement. W.

The attention of hnsewivcs is just now directed to the opening of the garden season, and the March Woman’s Home Companion con tains an excellent article by Sam uel Armstrong Hamilton on the subject. Among the many valu able pointers given out by Mr. Armstrong we quote : “The seed lings which have been started for early use in February will need at tention this month. No matter where they may be growing—in house, hotbed, cold frame or green house—they must be cooled off a little, as the outside air moderates, or they will grow too rapidly. It must be kept in mind that the ideal seedling is one which is short and stocky, excepting the young of trailing plants. Give them plenty of fresh air on i?leasant days, and toward the latter part of the month if the season is a forward one, they can be allowed to air all day, being covered up at night. Avoid a check from any cause, but grow them slowly from this on.” Keeping Open House. Everybody i^» welcome when we feel g«od; and we feel that'way only when our digestive organs are work- injr properly.
