If a chip were thrown into each of these and could float on uninter u pled ly to tue sea they would reach their destination many thousand miles apart. One is the fountain head of the Genesee river, which Hows into Lake Ontario, and finally reaches the sea at the mouth of the Gulf of St Lawrence. The other is the fountain head of the Allegheny river, which unites at Pittsburg with the Mo nongahelia to form the Ohio and reaches the sea at the mouth ol the Mississippi.

This medicine is a recent discovory for the cure of all diseases ol the stomach and bowels. It not only gives quick relief, but it makes permanent cures. . Dr. Howard's spec! lio has been so re ninrkably successful In curing constipa tion, dyspepsia and all liver troubles, that Mr. Davis is willing to return the price paid in every case whore It does not give relief. The old-fasbioned Idea of dosing with mineral waters, cathartic pills or harsh purgatives will soon be a thing of the past.

Death, like an untimely frost, has en tered another of Tiouesta's happy homes and bus fallen "Upon the sweetest flower of all the field." A beautiful daughter, the joy and prido of a father's heart, the tenderest object of a mother's love, has passed the bounds in the early morning, and has fallen asleop with God watching over till the day dawns. An angle whis per came and the seal ol silence has been put on the lips of one who was wont to give wise aud judicial council far beyond one of her years. Rut "Life is not meas ured by the time we live," and the beau tiful traits of the sweet young life that has gone from us, have added a richer strain to the song of many lives and the name of Minnie K. Reck will still live in the hearts of multitudes who are left behind. Miss Reck, who was a daughter of J. D. VV. Reck and Alma Neal Reck, was born at Tionesta, July 3, 1879, and, with the exception of a few years' residence in McKean county, has known no other home. Her life bas been a singularly bright and happy one. With unusual gifts and cheerful dispo sition, from her childhood, she has been very much beloved. She was fortunate in having excellent opportunities for im provement and at fifteen graduated with honors from the Brad fold public school. In 1807, when scarcely eighteon, she was one of two who formed the first class to graduate from the Tionesta High School. The course at that time embrac ed the curriculum of the college prepara tory, aud M iss Reek and her classmate passed the highest of any who have since graduated, they having received credit of over 07 per cent, from State Superintend ent Sehaefl'er. In 180!) she also graduated with honors from the Art Department of the Fredonia State Normal School, and, as her body lay on a silken couch in ber borne, it was surrounded by fine pieces of ber handiwork. She excelled as a mu sician and enobled ber fine talents by a pure life and noblecharactcr. Beautiful and accomplished and a young woman of remarkable judgment, her companionship was pleasant and in spiriting. But her life was soon made perfect. A fatal disease secretly fastened its bold upon her young life, and it has only beeu within the last four weeks that her parents even dreamed ofthe unpleas ant truth that the "appointed time" was soon to come. Brigbt's disease bad done its work and when t-he was taken to the Oil City hospital it was soon learneil that it was only a matter ol time till the earth ly tabernacle would be dissolved. All that love could prompt and skill could accomplish were done, but her life seem ed lo lie iu an uneven balance until Fri day when a marked change appoared, aud, at 2:0U o'clock Saturday morning, the spirit embarked iu the unseen ship and she was heard exclaim, "Home! Home at last!" The lunoral services were held Tues day afternoon, June 21, in the Presby terian church and were conducted by her pastor, Rev. R. W. IUingworto, assisted by Rev; O. H. Nickle of the Methodist Episcopal church. Everything was beau tiful, without ostentation tho llowers, prayers, music and address. Four young ladies, special friends of Miss Reck, acted as honorary pall bearers and were Misses Christine Agnew, Kathleen Joyce, Marie Smearbaugh and Emma Lawrence. The pall bearers, who were friends of Mr. Keck, were Messrs. L. J. Hopkins, Chas. Clark, A. M. Doutt, Q. Jamieson, J. T. Dale, and L. Fulton. The floral offerings were especially beautiful, among which were handsome pieces from Tionesta High School Alumni, of which Miss Reck was a member, aud the Y. P. S. C, E. A large concourse of sympathetic friends and telutives joined the father and mother and brother, Dallas, and fol lowed the remains of their loved one, as thoy were borne from their sight and laid to rest In our beautiful Riverside cemetery till the resurrection. H. J. OKAY. II. J. Gray was born iu Clarion county, Pa., Nov. 22, 1834, aud departed this life at his home in Clarington, Forest Co., Pa., June 15, 1001. It bas thus pleased our Heavenly Father to claim our earthly father, and we are bereft of a loyed and kind parost whose death we deeply mourn, yet our loss is his eternal gain. Too much cannot be said of his love aud kindness while bore on this drear earth, to those about his home, and the inter est be always took in the future comfort of wifo aud children, and which was par ticularly shown during the last year of his life. Therefore we are bereft of a very allcciouate, dear and kind parent. For months prior lo his death he very often spoke of his short stay ou earth and his desire of heaven. He did not desire tem porary relief which would only prolong bis life and sull'ering, but expressed him self as ready to go benever it was God's will to take him, and he looked ouly to the Great Physician for relief and ever- lasting rest iu eternity. We love to talk of the beautiful smiles at his last moments. It pictures to us the loveliness of peaco and happiness, and proved to us the joy there is for those who pass away with an entire view of the haven of rest and what they are to enjoy. Almost his last words wore, "Going up higher, ami the time seemed so long." To every one that came in his presence during his ill ness he readied bis feeble hand to bid them the lust good bye, saying "all is well," and speaking words of comfort to the nereaved ones, while bearing bis suf fering with patience. There are remaning to mourn this loss, a wifo, Mrs. Chrissie Gray, daughter of Jacob Mohney, of West Millville, Pa., one son, W. J. Gray, of Pittsburg, and three daughters, Mrs. E. E. Heasley and Mrs. F. A. lleasley.of Clarington, Pa. We all join in thanking every one for their sincere kindness iu our sad bereavement. His Chii.uukn. WIhto Are You CtiiiiK Ni'M Sunday?
