Promises! Baelhl Preacher with Hi
Wife and Daughter Were is The
Terrible B. ft. 0 Wreck.
What lends a deep personal in
terest to many people in this
county.of the terrible disaster on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
last Sunday a week, is the fact
that a well known Baptist clergy
man, together with his wife and
daughter were on the train and
all three were killed. The minis
ter was Elder Oille Dailey, of
Newark O., who had been assist
ing Elder Funk in conducting a
series of meetings at Need more,
and his wife and daughter were
accompanying him on a preach
ing tour, which included this
county, part of Maryland, and
Washington City.
Mr. Daily and his family left
Needmore Friday morning and
took the train at Hancc.-k. Alter
having filled some appointments
in Maryland Friday evening and
Saturday, he and his family
boarded the til fated train Sun
day afternoon to go m to Wash

GOLDEN WEDDING.
Friends and Neighbors Assemble to Cele
brate the Fiftieth Anniversary of
the Marriage of Mr. and Mrs.
Joha M. Winters.
New Year's morning 1907
dawned on the comfortable home
of Mr. John M. Winters, in-Thomp
son township, much the same as
it had on other New Year's morn
ings; and whether or not Mr. Win
ters had in his mind a long list
of New Year's resolutions that he
intended to Ueep, our correspjn
dent does not tell: at any rate, he
started about his usual work
much the same as on other morn
ings. If it occurred to him that
that day marked fifty years in
which he and Mrs. Winters had
walked together in the pith of
married life, be thought it did
not seem half so long.
About ten o'clock he was about
leaving l.is home to attend to
some business, when his plans
were somewhat interrupted by
the arrival of a few friends; then
there came some more, and then
some more, until Mr. Winters be
gan to wonder whether there was
to be a public sale at his home
that day, or what was "in the
wind."
These very same visitors with
out much ceremony began to take
possession of his home and to
run things pretty much their
own way. Well, there was not
much harm done, for by noon
there was spread in the dining
room a sumptuous di riser, at
which Mr. and Mrs. Winters were
the guests of honor, and a most
happy social time was had. If
they had not thought of the Gold
en Wedding before, it' wu. all
plain enough to them now, and
they greatly appreciated the
thoughtfulness and good will of
their many friends and neigh
bors, who had thus assembled to
tender congratulations and add
to their pleasure on this holiday.
Amid the festivity and pleasure
of the occasion, no one present
was unmindful of the fact that to
God were they indebted for all
real blessings of life, and in the
afternoon with their pastor, Elder
Funk, they assembled in the par
lor, where the 103d Paalm was
read and a devout prayer offered.
It was a day well spent.

It's a pleasure to tell our read
ers about a Cough Cure like Dr.
Snoop's. For years Dr. Sho j
has fought agaiust the. use of
opium, chloroform, or other un
safe ingredients commonly found
in Cough remedies. Dr. Snoop,
it seems, has welcomed the Pure
Food and Drug Law recently en
acted, for be has worked along
similar lines many years. For
nearly 20 years Dr. Snoop's
Cough Cure containers have bad
a warning printed on them against
opium and other narcotic poisons.
He has thus made it possible tor
mothers to protect their children
by simply insisting on having Dr.
Shoop's Cough Cure. Sold at
Dickson's drug store.
