IMPRESSIVE OBSEQUIES
OP FREDRICK MITCHELL
Perhaps the largest Funeral Proces
sion Ever Seen on Carbondale
Streets Hose Companies and Rnil
road Men in Xine Burial in Brook
side. The lato Frederick Mitchell was laid
.it rest In Brookslde cemetery, yester
day amid the most impressive cere
monies that have been witnessed in this
city in years. Perhaps the largest out
pouring at a funeral in Carbondale in
recent years marked the departure 11C
this popular young man to his tntub.
The lire department of Carbondale
was well represented. The Mitchell
company, or which the deceased was an
enthusiastic member and the Columbia
Hose company, both in dress uniform
were in the procession. Fire Chief Mc
Nulty, was at the head of the Colum
bia?, who led the procession, deorge
Aunger commanded the Mitohfiis, near
ly all of whom wore present.
H. K. Hendrick Lodge, No.' !U.
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen,
had a hundred men In line. JJesldo
this representation of railroad men,
there were scores present, who had no
connection with the brotherhood, but
who were impelled to he present by
feelings of warm friendship for the
deceased .
The services wert? at the bereaved
home, -1' (lardeld avenue, nt S.tiO
o'clock-. Rev. It. J. "tt'hnlen, D. D pas
tor of the Rerean Baptist church, of
ficiated. Rev. W. 11. Grow, assisted.
The multitude.-was so great that the
house wns oven-run so that tho yard
and the street in front of the residence
held a crowd. Dr. AVhalen found It
necessary to deliver the eulogy from
the threshold of the house, as tho, con
gregation outside was so large. All
the elements to make a most deeply
impressive ceremony were present and
it Is certain that Dr. Whalen's sym
pathetic voice conveyed more feeling to
a gathering of this character than on
thlf occasion.
Dr. Whulen in his address pointed out
the lessons of Mr. Mitchell's life and
of his death. In touching on the
demonstration of friendship for the de
parted, he suggested that as the Lord
said "a man cannot gather friends un
less he be friendly." The force of this
truth was Illustrated on this occasion,
said Dr. "Whalen, for there was no
such gathering as this since his coming
to this city, In which ho either partici
pated or had any knowledge of.
There was u quartette, Mrs. II. J.
"Whalen, Miss Sadie Vatkius, AVIIfred
Ilohart, John Rone, who sang "Abide
with Me."
The floral pieces were magnlllcent
and fittingly represented the feelings of
the friends who presented them.
Tho pall-bearers were chosen as fol
lows:
Sam Farrell, Boyd Case, of tho rail
road crow of tins deceased; John
Brydon nnd Thomas Beddoe, of the
brotherhood; T, 1 Herbert, James F.
Bates, of the Mitchells, The flower
bearers were Kdward Atkinson and
James Bank, engineer mid firemen of
Mitchell's train; George Maunlon and
Kdward Inch, of the brotherhood.

Women to Write Her for Advice.
In the vast retail establishments of largo cities, many women aro
employed us saleswomen.
Men formerly hold tho positions that women now hold, and whilo
Avomen'u organism is less strong than men's, they aro expected to do tho
uamo Avork. Thoir duties compel them to bo on their feet from morning
to night, and many of thorn, in n, .short time, contract those distressing
complaints called "femalo diseases."
Then occur Irregularities, suppressed "or painful menstruation,
Avcakness, indigestion, loucorrheca, general debility, and nervous pros-'
tration.
They aro bescb Avith(such symptoms as dizziness, faintness, lass!-'
tudo, excitability, irritability, nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy,
" all-gono " und " want-to-be-lof t-alono " feelings, blues, and hopelessness.
In such cases thcro is one tried and true remedy. Tjydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound at onco removes such troubles. Tho
folloAving letters provo this. Thoy also prove tho value of Mrs. Pink
ham's advice.

like a new woman. AVhen I began tho use of your medicine I was hardly ablo
to bo up ; could not do half a day's work. I ached from bead to foot, waST!
almost crazy, had those bearing-down pains, and stomach was out of orden
Kow all of these troubles have left mo and I can work every day in tho week "
and not feel tired." Mr.s. Jessie Freeman, 402 Pennsylvania Ave., tima, Ohio.
" Dear airs. Pinkham : I have read with interest your advice to
others so much that 1 thought I would write to you for I hate been
suffering tor a long time. This Idid some time ago.
"Now I can hardly find words to thank you for your wonderful Vega
table Compound and advice.
" I was in a terrible state, every part of my body ached, was very nervous,
had hysterical spells. I think I would have become insane had it not been for
Xydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Your medicine has cured
me and I cannot express my thanks." Miss Hattie DeGroat, SuccasUnna,
