"Him mat cometn to me x will in no wise wise cast out."- Thus speaks the Lord of life. - Mr. Darden was born in Plymouth, Washington Co., N. C, the 22nd of August, 1859, and he spent many years of his youth and early manhood on a farm and in the loving care ofhl3 mother and sisters ; and in that noble service made himself the "victor over all that tyranny or fortune can inflict." Mr. Darden has left two brothers and three sisters; a wile and two littl. children ; and a goodly numoar of sympathizing friends, who lament their loss, but the grief of his wife can find no expression in words. . He was interred in the Episcopal cemetery with the comforting rites of the episcopal cnurcn, Aug. aula ai about 6 p. m. in the presence of a large number of his sorrowing friends. Li fa has for us many painful surprises and bereavments, and we know not their approach, it is often so stealthy, till we put ourselves in the grasp of the swift inexorable current of the river of time, whose waves sweep oyer us, and bear away our hearts' treasures into that mysterious silence from whence they return no more. And our consolation must be that in a little while, we too, shall enter that realm, to see and to know the things that now are hidden from us. G. W. P. Letter TO Mrs. M. A. Shields. Scotland Neck N.

Taylor. It is seldom that any community is so saddened as was Scotland Neck last Thursday when the shocking new came that Mrs. O.K. Taylor was dead She left her home here 16th of Aug ust and went to Wilson for special treatment. She remainded there two weeks and on Wednesday, August 29, she underwent a serious operation from which she died Thursday night. August 30th. Her husband went over to Wilson with his little son, Bruce, Tuesday, the day before the operation, and found Mrs. Taylor in fairly good spirits. Her physicians were hopeful of a successful operation and so was she, but she seem ed to have some borebodings of death and gave instructions about certain things in case she should die. Thursday Mrs. W. A. Dunn was tel egraphed for and went to the bedside ot her dying cousin. Her husband and two of her children, Neda and Bruce, and Mrs. Dunn were with her in her last hours. The body, was brought home Fri day morning at 9 o'clock and remained in the parlor until 5 :30 in the after noon. Dr. Hufham of Henderson, who baptized her into the Baptist church here some years ago, was telegraphed for to conduct the burial service. A a :4U o clock the long procession moved slowly from the residence to the Episcopal cemetery, where the body was laid to rest near the grave of her father, the late D. Edmondson. Dr. Hufham read ; the Scriptures, Bev. O. Byder, pastor of the Metbodht church here, offered prayer ; and while the grave was being filled friends sang "How firm a Foundation," and as the suu was setting the new-made mound was literally covered with sweet and beautiful flowers as a token ol the warm affection in which the de ceased was held by all. Mrs. Minnie Taylor was born June 24th, 1867, was the second daughter of D. Edmondeon and Mary Edmond son, the mother still surviving. On April 12th, 1887, she was married to Mr. O. K. Taylor. For awhile they re sided in Whitakers, Mr. Taylor's old home, but later come to live in Scot land Neck. The marriage was blessed with five children, all living, the youngest being two years old. Of her immediate family Mrs. Taylor left her husband and children, mother and eis ter, Mrs. B. C. Josey. - " She was young and beautiful and was the embodiment of womanly love liness. She was highly accomplished and her life was one unbroken charm of a noble christian womanhood. She had been a consistent member of the Baptist church for a number of years and her christian character and exam pie were a blessing to her own family and to the community in which she lived. - 4 Mrs. Taylor numbered many friends and admirers away from Scotland Neck, and in her home community all who knew her loved her. A lovely daughter, faithful wife, a fond and tender mother, she has passed up to her glorious re ward, and leaves a vacancy in the home, the church and the community which can never be filled as she filled it. In all her broad acquaintance there was no one to say ought against her ; but she was well beloved by all from her childhood, as a young lady, a bride, a mother, a neighbor and a friend. In Ler death earth is robbed of one of its brightest and best, but heaven is gladdened by the coming of one fof whom the house of "many mansions" was prepared. The Commonwealth joins in heart felt sympathy for all who are bo sorely bereaved. TBIAL TEEATMENT B. B. B FEEE. CURM BLOOD rOMO, SCOi'ULA, ECZEMA, BHSUMXTISM, AND ALL BLOOD TROUBLES.

Mrs. Ellaa Wike, 190 Iron 8t Akron, O. Mrs. Eliza Wike says : " I would be in my grave now if It had not been for your God-sent remedy, Pe-rn-na. Everybody says I am looking so much better. No doctor could help me as Pe-ru-na did. I was a broken-down woman. It is now seven years past that I waa cured." Mrs. Sarah Oallitz, of Luton, la., also writes : " I was suffering with the change of life. I had spells of flowing every two or three weeks, which would leave me nearly dead. I had given up hope of being cured, when I heard of Dr. Hart man's remedies and began to use them. I am entirely cured, and give all the credit to Pe-rn-na." But comparatively few women who are suffering with pelvic catarrh know that this is the case. Their trouble is called dyspepsia, heart trouble, female weakness, weak lungs, nervous debility ; indeed, almost the whole category of medical terms has been applied to ca tarrh of some organ of the female anatomy.
