Alice Evelyn Mann was born in lowa and grew to womanhood in the homes of her parents in different lo- calitics in lowa and Kansas. When 17 years old she was united in mar- riage with William Quiggle and in aj few years was left with three little boys when she returned to her fa- ther's home. After a few years of widowhood she was united in mar- riage with John F. Smith, who with two grown daughters, a 1i-year-old son, tiie three sons of her first mar- riage, her father and mother, four sisters, four brothers and a wide cir- cle of more distant relatives are left to mourn their great loss. Two sons of her last family preceded her to the heavenly home. The many tasks that this life brought her were pa- tiently and cheerfully performed and one by one reluctantly laid aside as her strength grew less and less. A few months ago she came to Lake- land, hoping to improve her health, but earth’s pain and weariness in- creased. At the age of 17 she joined the Free Will Baptist church and never wavered in her faith which led her to hope that the time of suffering might soon be over so that as she could not stay with her living chil- dren she might go and be with her little boys. The three sons of her first family and her father and mother, all from near Mobile, Ala., arrived in time to be with their mother and daughter a few days before the silence that is not broken here brought rest to our loved one and, according to God's promises she entered a fuller, bright- N_o_tice To Customers We think it nothing but right that the clerks should have the evenings off during the hot summer mnthos, there- fore we have agreed to close our store each evening (Satur- days excepted) at 6:30 o'clock, and will appreciate to have the ladies call and do their shop- ping before that time.

In a recent case in which the ques- tlon of affection was an important is- sue, the judge spoke wisely as a phil- osopher. It was a bit of gold in the dross of the court life of a great wick- ed city. “A man's affection for a wom- an,” sald the modern Solomon, “is shown by his willingness to take trou- ble in her behalf, to do little services for her, to do with a willing hand that which a man not in love would deem tiresome, troublesome and disqulet- ing.” A Success. “Was her bridge whist party a suc- cegs?”” “Yes, indecd.
