MRS, A. 0. TAYLOR.
Many friends and old neighbors
from Perrydale attended the funeral
of Mrs. A. C. Taylor at McCoy, Sunday.
No braver battle against disease and
pain was ever fought than the struggle
of Mrs. Tavlor against her fatal
malady, cancer. Her good nature
and tenderness for others was her
strongest hold in patiently bearing
the terrible suffering of four long
year3. No expense was spared to re
lieve her and she was the recipient of
every attention tbat a devoted husband
could bestow.
Hers was a useful life. Her mother
heart went out to the orphan and she
raised her dead sister's little son and
daughter to noble manhood and
womanhood loving them as her own.
The largest number of people ever
gathered in the Bethel cemetery
brought a wealth of floral offerings
as a tribute of love and respect to this
kind neighbor and Triend. The be
reaved husband and sorrowing family
have the sincere sympathy of the
community, where, In their beautiful
home they passed so many happy
years. '

definitely, and there Is little doubt
that the citizens of Dallas will be
highly pleased with the preaching of
the evangellHt, Dr. 8. M. Martin, of
Seattle. Dr. Martin, as an evangpl
1st, stands in a class by himself. He
Is broad, positive and Independent.
As a speaker he Is logical and deep,
without being tedious; witty, without
being irreverent; his deep, rich voice
adds a charm to his speaking, that
holds the attention of his audienca.
His method of work will, doubtless,
reach and touch the public.
The medicine that sets the whole world
thinking,
The remedy on which all doctors
agree,
The prescription all your friends are
taking
Is Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea.
