The rule of "speaking only good of
the dead," wbllo an admirable one,
night, we think, successfully be carried
a little further, and an occasional good
word spoken of those who are struggling
to do the best they can while Journeying
through this alleged "vale of tears." We
need more "taffy and less epitaphy" or,
as the originator of the phrase has so well
expressed It, "Wo live and move and
have our being; we stumble on without
much seeing; few praise us for the good
we've done 'till after we are dead and
gone. O why, I wonder is this thus, and
why are things In such a must? In life
we need more taffy, at death less epi
taphy." Why uot try It?

The minister should be paid a living
wage, should earn it, and maintain him
self and his family out of It, without ask
ing rebates on purchases and half fare
rates lu traveling. Doualions should not
be solicited for him. Such offerings
should, In fact, be considered an imperti
nence. There is uo reason why lie and
his wife should have their supplies se
lected and purchased for them. Those
who object to placing the services of a
minister on a commercial basis should
recollect that this is much better and
more satisfactory in every way than are
the popular donations, rebates on sup
plies and demands for half fares on pub
lic conveyances. It is the system, not
the miulster, that is to blame for thus
persistently cheapening tbo gospel and
making those who would follow preach
ing as a vocation semi-mendicauts, sub
ject alike to criticism for wearing good
clothes aud for going shabby. '

RECENT DEATHS.
MEALY.
Mrs. Mealy, widow of tbe late John
Mealy, died at tbe borne of her son, Jo
seph, who lives on the old bomestoad, a
short distance from Jobnlowen, Clarion
county, Thursday morning, Nov, 9, 1905,
aged upward of 90 years, Catherine
(Knisley) Mealy was the daughter of John
and Catherine Knisley, and was born In
Bedford county, Pa., July 14, 1815, where
she grew to young womanhood. March
17, 1830, at Hollidaysburg, she was united
In marriage with John Mealy, and six
years later, in 1842, they came to Clarion
county and settled on a piece of land
which they cleared and ever after made
their home, and where both passed their
last hours upon earth, Hie husband pass
ing away nearly 20 years ago. Seven
boys and four girls were born to them, of
whom seven still survive, as follows:
Mrs. Samuel Whitton of Newmansville,
Mrs. C. Zueudel of Ross Run, J. K.
Mealy of Tiona, Moses M., of Newmans
ville, Aaron, of Tiona, Elijah, of Youngs
villo, and Joseph, on the old homestead,
They were among tbe earliest settlers of
tlie section to which they came, and the
country was scarcely more than a wilder
ness, with neighbors few and far between,
but they toiled together through it all,
overcoming hardships with cheerful
hearts that would be considered too great
for tbe present generation to endure.
Mother Mealy united early in life with
the German Reformed church, afterwards
transferring her membership to the Luth
eran church owing to tbe absence of fa
cilities for attending the church of ber
first choice. She was a true Christian
mother and reared ber children "in tbe
faith." She retained ber mental facul
ties to the last, and a few minutes before
she closed ber eyes in death, sang with a
clear voice her favorite hymn, "Jesus,
Lover of My Soul." She Is also survived
by one brother, one sister, 32 grandchil
dren aud 23 great grandchildren.
Funeral services were held at the Luth
eran church at Newmansville, on Satur
day last, conducted by Rev, R. A. Zabnls
er of Tionesta, and the interment was
made in tlie cemetery adjoining, six of
ber grandsons acting as pall bearers.
One of the Funny Items. .
Newspaper reports say that the people
of Forest county are considering tbe pro
priety of attaching themselves to some
other county and thereby wiping them
selves off the map as a political and geo
graphical division. Tbe county bad a
population of only 11,039 at the last cen
sus and the burden of maintaining a
county government naturally falls heavily
upon each taxpayer. We assume that
this is all talk from irresponsible outside
sources as Forest has tbe territory aud
resources to make a great county some
day. All tbat is necessary is to Baw wood
and be patient. Besides, in a county
where there are so few people, nearly
every male citizen has a chance to become
an office-holder some time during bis life
and thus get even. But if "Jake" Wenk
and "Billy" Croasmun, and the rest of
the boys up there are really tired, and
want to quit, we hereby extend to them a
cordial invitation to annex to Jefferson
county.-Punxsy Spirit.
What would be Ihe matter with Elk
annexing both Forest aud Cameron coun
ties. We would cordially welcome either
or both of them. Ridgway Advocate.
Now, friends, you've both been so lov
ing and lovable to us, that were we For
estonians ever to oonsider the proposition
of "throwing up the sponge" we'd
scarcely know which of "yees" to em
brace first. But since there are at least
three other counties smaller than we in
population, several smaller In area, and
tbe further fact, that both Jefferson and
Elk slopped clear over and went "hell
bent" for Berry, while Forest county
stayed by the old flag at the recent elec
tion, if there's any annexing business on
he tapis it will have to come our way,
and you fellows must come to us.
