The attention t and kindness shown by friends in Charles ton was unbounded and fully appreciat ed by her sorrowing family. The ser vices were conducted by Bev. Kershow of St. Michaels church and were largely attended by friends of yarious churches who covered the casket and grave with costly flowers and she rests in the beau tiful Magnolia cemetery.

The finest county in the South to have roads which will permit the farmera to come to town under any and all weather conditiona 1 The agitation started by this payer to bear fruit, and that im mediately. The Board of County Trustees will meet here on the first Monday in. April, and it is assured they will take definite steps at that time to give the county paved roads. The necessary machinery will be purchased immediately and work will begin on May 15th of this yearr Under the efficient superintend ecy of Supervisor P. F. Patton, there will undoubtedly be many miles constructed this year. Mr. Patton is heartily in favor of the work, and with the necessary machinery, the chaingang under B. B. Souther.and probably many private subscriptions, the im provement will be pushed as rap idly as possible. What roud will first be paved, to what extent the town and coun ty authorites will co-operate are matters not yet decided. Possibly that road where the property owners offer the greatest induce ments will . be the first to be im proved. A Good R.o&.ds Association Needed The fact that Henderson Coun ty Roads are to be paved makes necessary a live andNfighting Good Roads "Association, An associa tion which will aid the authorities in every way possible, by their moral support and by financial aid from those property owners whose roads are to be paved.

With paved county roads, paved side walks in town, plenty of water and good electric light service, to say nothing of hoe churches and excellent public schools, we surmise that this city is go ing to be a most admirable place in which to reside very soon. The Religious Herald,. Richmond, Va., March 19th, has the following to say about Rev. A R. Love, formerly pastor of the First Baptist Church of this city. "Rev. A. R.

Dog Law Repealed. The dog law was repealed last Wed nesday and the canines of the town are correspondingly happy. - It is said they ntend holding a mass meeting and give the city authorities a vote of thanks for their restored liberty. But, seriously, the law has had a good effect. There were too many dogs on the streets.
