December 7, 1900, I left my home for Fultou county, P;i., ami on the 8th, I arrived at Pleasant Grove Christian church to assist Rev. J. W. Troutman in a pro tracted meeting. The mooting began the Sth and continued to the 20th. The Holy Spirit came down, pinners were converted, the church was revived and about fifteen united with the church. At the close of the meeting, the congregation went out to the creek near the church, when the writer buried eleven with Christ in Christian baptism. By re quest of the pastor, the writer did all the preaching except two sermons which was ably preach ed by Rev. J. W. Troutman. The people of Pleasant (J rove neigh borhood are very kind, and I think as good as they are kind. In appreciation of my services, the Pleasant Grove church gave me-t5.oj. May the Lord ble.s them in basket,, and in store. From there I went to assist Rev. J. W. Troutmau, at Whips Cove church for ten days. The con gregations at that place were al so large, and the Christmas ser vices on the 25 was the grandest for the accasion I ever saw, and were highly appreciated by all. At this place.the writer did all the preaching except one sermon which was preached by the pas tor. The church here was much revived and two united with the church. The people of Whips Cove are very kind, and I think as good as can be found any where on God's earth. May they live faithful. In apprecia tion of my services this church gave me 37.00. May the Lord bless them. I arrived at home Dec. 31, 1901, and found all well. Now I send you all thanks through the Fulton County News for your kindness to me. S. L. Baughek. P. S. Mrs. Baugher wants a . word: Deak Editor. I wish through the News, to thank the good sis ters of Pleasant Grove church for some very valuable presents for myself, sent me by my hus band Rev. S. L. Baugher. I also wish to thank the good sisters of Whips Cove church for some very valuable presents sent me. May the dear Lord bless these good sisters, for their kindness. I very highly appreciate their kindness. Matilda C. Baugiii:k. Clear KRlc. Jan. 8.

Some, initated, thought the wedding supper was the cause of his detention, but when at last ho arrived, it was found that the road had been blockaded.

Pepsin preparations often fail to relieve indigestion because they can digest only albuminous foods. There is ono preparation that digests all classes of food, aud that is Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It cures the worst cases of Indi gestion and gives instant relief, for it digests what you eat. Trout's drug store. ' l'ratt .MJ. During nice weather the people have bVo'.t busy cutting timber, and improving the now homes th-: they have purchased during the pas', year. This will be a very pretty set tlement after it is once opened up fully. Rev. Jame-t Troutman (f Cha ue.vsvillo is holding a protracted meeting at Mt. Hope, and Rev. A. R. Carl, md, one at Fairviow.

Pitlman of Plum Run have contracted to do a big 'lot of sawing in this neighbor hood, and expect to beat work by Feb. 1. William Chancy died ou New Years day. He was 1)2 years of age and the father of six child ren. The work of J. F. Barney has been retarded very much recent ly by boils on his left arm. No remedies applied seemed to af ford any relief, and even the gen tle caress of his sweetheart made him howl with pain. Cal Hewet was absent last Fri day and Saturday. He was seen near Will Stigers' mill. He probably had a grist to grind. Charlie Twig of this place came verv nearly oeiug drowned ooin e and his team. He undertook to cross the Potomac; and when near the middle, the water was too deep and the current too strong; and it was only due to the prompt assistanceof M. L. Collen,that the driver and team were saved. Jerry Robiuott and his son Harry are each preparing to build a big barn next summer. When threatened by pneumo nia or any other lung trouble, prompt relief is necessary, as it is dangerous to delay. Wo would suggest that One Minute Cough Cure be taken as soon as indica tions of having taken cold are no ticed. It cures quickly and its early use prevents consumption. Trout's drug store.

There are too many of us who are ready to praise the dead saints and persecute tho liviug ones. Then there is the close fisted fellow who needs a little touching up.
