When you wish an easy shave,
As good as barber ever gave,
Call at my Tonsorial Room,
At morning, eve or busy noon;
1’11 cut and curl your hair with grace
To suit the contour of the face.
My room is neat and always clean,
Scissors sharp and razors keen,
And everything that skill can do,
If you will call. I’ll do for you.

his beliefs, they were a part of him-

his faith was not of the lips alone,
but of the heart. “I know that Christ
has saved me,” said he, in conversa-
tion with a friend a short time before
his death; his expression and quiver-

life, attested the deep hold this

Christian gentlemen, “without fear
and without reproach.” No unkind
word about the absent ever crossed
his lips. His last words, addressed
to one and another around him before
he lost the power of speech, were all
expressions of grateful appreciation
for little services rendered him. To
the last the gracious courtesy of his
demeanor never failed.

On Sunday, after a brief but most
painful illness came a moment of
rest to theboj ish sufferer. With lips
parted and eyes alight with a smile
of such radiance that the giief of the
watchers was hushed in wonder, the
pure spirit ascended to the God who
gave it. And so closed a life so
short and yet so beautiful that its
perfection won recognition from all
with whom he was associated. None
ever attain a greater height than that
reached by William Baucom in the
love and respect of his friends, his
teachers, and his schoolmates. Of
sterling character, his principles were {the land that is very far off.”

First, and with no little regret I

Mr Payne. He leaves our quiet
little village to go to his farm five
or six miles from here.
J. B. Herrin has gone into the

urges on all Confederate Veterans
that they meet and organize local
camps under the foregoing articles
to the end that such of our com-
rades as are in need of assistance
may be promptly relieved and
such data collected and preserved
as shall vindicate the truth of his-
tory concerning a struggle which
demanded so many sacrifices and
that brought forth such heroic
deeds of valor on the part of the
Southern Armies.

In conclusion I wish to call at-
tention to a State Re-Union which
comes off at Dallas, Texas, on the
5th of April, 1892, for the purpose
of forming a State Encampment
and also for purpose of attending the accompaniment only of an equally

vantage of this excursion and who
will certainly go, should send

and his grandmo? her, the one to whom
they looked as their comfort and
mainstay in future years, and be
himself wrs already anticipating the
time when he should take his place
as the eldest son, and they should
lean upon his arm.
But rhe deepest feeling of his life
was his love for the one who had
first loved him, and to whom he had
devoted his life in true and loyal
ser/ice. The thought of the great-
ness the depth, the richness of that
love filled his heart and his soul, his
whole being rose in response and all
meaner things vanished from before
the sight of the young soldier of the
cross.
One so well fitted to hve was as
well fitted for the life beyond. The
ardent, sensative soul had too heavily
taxed the delicate frame, and the
shock of^vere illness could not be
withstood. And when at last the
summons came, and the glory of the
departing smile answered it, it was
as if for him had come on earth the
fullfillment of the prophecy, “Thine
eyes shall see the king in his beauty
’ He
obeyed ail commands, with docility,
for his heart was as the heart of a
little child. To him now belonged
the joy of the promise, “Blessed are
the pure in heait for they shall see
God.”
As his schoolmates gathered around
the quiet sleeper, and ere he was
conveyed forever from earthly sight,
sang the hymn he loyed so well. “I
know tlj|at Jesus loves me and that’s
and. streaming eyes of the singers
told more than any words bow he
would be missed among them. But
the great love of which they sang
had taken him to join the choir of
those who are robed in Christ’s right-
eousness, “For of such is the king-
dom of Heaven.”
“There is no death! What seems
is transition,
This life of mortal breath
Is but a suburb of the life elysion;
Whose portals we call Death.
“He is not dead,—nor lost from our
affection,
But gone unto that school
Where he no longer needs our poor
protection,
And Christ himself doth rule.”

Hew The Apostles Died.

learn that all the apostles, except-

deaths as follows:

with his head, on a cross similar
to that used in the execution of
Jesus.
Andrew was bound to a cross
and left to die from exhauston.
James the Great was beheaded
by order of Herod at Jerusalem.
James the Less was thrown
from a high pinnacle, then stoned,
and finally killed with a fullers
club.
Phillip was bound and hanged
against a pillar.
Bartholomew was flayed to
death by command of a barbar-
ous king.
Matthew was killed with a hal-
befd.

of arrows while at prayer, and
afterwards run through the body
with a lance.

manner of Jesus.

stieets of Alexander until he ex-
pired.
Luke was hanged to an olive
tree in Greece.
