resolutions up rksfect.
At the regular meeting of the
Fortnightly Club, held February
IS, 1002, the following ladies
were appointed to prepare suit-
able resolutions regarding the
death of Mrs. L. J. Loekelt:
Mesdanies Heber Stone, Boiling
Eldridge and O. A. Seward. Af-
ter transaction of business the
Club adjourned, without pro-
gram, as a tribute of respect to
their deceased member:
Whereas, Our Heavenly Fath-
er has seen fit to sorely afflict
and grieve us, by removing from
our midst so valued and valuable
a member as Mrs. L. J. Lockett,
be it
Resolved, That in the death of
•'Alice,'* as we all knew and
loved her, this Club has sustained
a great loss. Personally our
hearts have been touched with
sorrow's deepest pang, and we
cannot tell, it cannot be told, how
we will miss her. Her time, her
talents, and her influence were
always at the disposal of this
Club; she was untiring in her ef-
forts to elevate and broaden its
influence, and make it an orna-
ment and a blessing to our city.
In our meetings her wise coun-
sel, her brightness and winsome
manner gave, as it were, new
life to the members, and added
attraction to the Club. Bright
in intellect, self-sacrificing in
disposition, attractive in bearing
and strong in character, she pre
sented in one grand and asso
ciated glow all the beauties of i
truly noble womanhood, and her
association in any circle made a
strong and lasting impression
Her presence will be greatly
miSBed by all, but her sweet in
flueoce will ever linger in our
midst,
"Ltlre the perfume .na 1 is left after the rose
it crushed,
Or the echo of «ong after the muwc i*
hu*hed "
Resolved, Though with
streaming eyes, and aching
hearts we endeavor to "breathe
that prayer divinely taught
Thy will be done," recognizing
in our dear friend those wom-
anly qualities that endeared her
to every member of the club, the
executive ability that made her a
natural leader, the clear judge-
ment that caused all to yield to
her decisions, the perfect mould-
ing of a glorious womanhood, we
thank God for her sweet com
Thganionship, even though the
resident be bri.ef; e!er at ber P°8t
, n or shine, duty was law,
and spent^y aa we £ftze upon her
as per regit chair, realizing that never

" there I* no death, what seem* so i* transi-
tion;
This life of mortal breath,
Is but a suburb of the life elysitn,
Whose portal we call death."
Resolved, Further; that our
tender sympathy be extended the
aged mother, devoted husband,
children, and relatives whose
loss is irreparable. As a stately
lily she reigned in her home, her
love the aroma, that penetrated
every recess,and made ail around
her beautiful.
Resolved, That the club room
be draped in mourning for a
period of thirty days, as a token
of respect for our beloved mem-
ber, a'so that these resolutions
b3 printed in the "Daily Ban-
ner," "Evening Press," aai
both weeklies; that a copy of the
same be sent each member of the
family and the Secretary of the
Federation of Clubs.

external remedies do not
reach constitutional or blood

more harm than good, by
smearing over and sealing up
the pores of the skin, thus
forcing the poison back into the blood. S. S. S. antidotes and neutralizes the acid
poisons and drives out of the circulation all impurities and humors, and the pure,
rich blood that is carried to the diseased skin quickly allays the inflammation,
opens the clogged up pores, and the skin becomes soft, smooth and ready to perform
its proper functions. To be rid of Eczema you must first purify and build up the

The Government of Holland
has made this offer in the friend-
liest spirit, honestly disclaiming
any attempt at mediation. In all
likelihood the offer is based on a;
knowledge that the Boers will
accept the cardinal points of the
British peace terme.
Holland, moving between the
two, beiog kin to the Dutch of
South Africa and friendly with
the English, may well bring them
to an understanding for peaoe.
This was the high duty, and
should have been the proud
performance, of the United States
Government, but, since we have
failed in our steadfastness to the
cause of liberty, let us pray that
little Holland may do the great
and good work which was ours to
do by right.
The world is weary of the

used for over sixty years by millions of moth-

fect success. It soothes the child, softens the

Under the present extrava-

which is wrong in principle, as
in practice. The government has
no legal right to exact more from
the people than is sufficient to
meet legitimate expenses.

hmaix pox.
This dreadful disease is now very preva-
lent in all parts of the country, and, as ex-
posure to its malignant breath It liable to
occur at any time, no matter how careful we
may be, ii behooves every one to take pro-
per precautions lo prevent the germs from
affecting the body. The doctors say that
pure blood, good digestion and regular
bowel movements materially aid the body in
resisting attack, hence it is the course of
wisdom to purify and strengthen the system
without delay. A most effective remedy for
this purpose, one that combines the nt ces-
sary properties for purifying the blood,
strengthening the kidneys, toning up the di-
gestive organs and for cleansing and regu-11
fating the bowels will be found in that well
known system tonic and purifier, Prickly
Ash Bitters. This valuablo remedy is the
right thing for putting the body in thape to
resist the effect of exposure to small pox.
No one will knowingly expose himself to
this disease. The exposure usually take*
place when it is least expected, therefore the
need for precautionary measures is the more
urgent. It is safe to say that the frequent
use of Prickly Ash Bitters while the disease
is so prevalent will keep the body in such
fine physical condition that ne ordinary ex-
posure will affect it.
