AN HONKHT MAN.
An American Parable of the Black
tnith and Ilio Ffeyaiclau-
Uudor tliis heading tho Indian Med

hanged, and he died, and be left two
sous, honest men. Now, ouo of thoso
was a blacksmith, but the other bo

thoso brothers made their homes in
other lands. And the blacksmith
would havo prospered, but it befell
I bat some one asked him how Ids fa
ther died. Aud Ilio blacksmith, look
ing angrily upou him, answered ; "Ho
was I'liug.' For tbo blacksmith was
au lioueat man. Howbeit pretfently,
when a horse was missing, man gatli
ered and seizod aud hangod tha
blacksmith, tayiug: 'This man must
take after Ids lather,' So tho black-
smlih did take afler bis father. And
at tho same time, Iu his own city, one
luquired of tho physician by what
means bis father died. And tbo phy
sician covered bis face and wept. But
while he wept, he considered,; saying
to himself: 'If I say ho was hangod,
then I shall shock this itsau aud give
him pain. Nevertheless I must toll
tho truth.' Ho said, therefore 'My fa
ther died of heart failure.' Aud ngain
he wept, the questionor weeping with
him. Thon this being told, men said.
"Doubtless, since his 'father died of
heart fuiluro this good physician aud
loving son hath mndo a study of kin
dred diseases.' So thoy resorted uufr.
him. And Ilio physician becamo a
specialist, and he looked at them who
rame in and coughod once aad sneezed
twice, and demaudsd $100 And they
gave gladly. For the physician was
an honest man.
TBI BUT! TO J. R. COVhRKI.L.
Hisslsslppi bas lost one of bar best and
most enterprising citizens I spesk of Mr.
John R. Cockretl, of Noxubea eouUy
whose earthly remains wera buritd In Ma
eon ceniotery on Monday last, Marsh SOth.
1S06. P.io. Cock roll was born Sept. 10th,
1827. . His parents were BenJ. and Eliza
Cockrell, He was married to Miss Mary A.
Wells ot Noxuboe couuty, Sapt. Otli, Mbi.
This was a happy union wbloh ended oaly
by bis bsiujr willed ta Hi he joljr ttome na
Saturday nlgbt, March 28th, 18ft0. - : -
Bio. Cocl-rell was a succstslul farmer and
manaeer of free negro labor, and no bolter
evidence could be adduced to prove bis
kiudness to bis laborers thon tha largo num
ber of his former servants who attendsil
his burial, coming sixteen or eighteen
miles over the rough prairla roads ; not as
Idle spectators but as ganulno mourners,
weeping with tba distressed lanilly. To
my mind no higher compliment could be
paid tba memory of any man thau tb t of
his subordinates dropping the tsar of gen
uine sorrow on his grije, . .
Faw men have made s greater success as
an all araund farmer than ha. What a
pleasure to visit his bonis and have him as
guide and conductor to show one around.
What a palace home I What large, nice,
comfortable barns,"beaut!lul southdowns,
nice, smooth, fat Jerteya, fins, fat, slick
bogs, ate. What beautiful horses and mules
and all the difTereut kinds of stock, always
sbowiug tbst those largo barns were never
empty. Wbils his cotton crop always ran
up into the hundreds of baits, bo was one
of tha very few southern tanners who nev
er neglected his grain aud hay and stock
crop to give extra attention U cotton. Few
men possessed the Indomitable enorgy of
our departed fricud.
As a citizen Mr. Coekrell was a high
toued, honorable geiitlomn, one-wbo would
scorn to do a questionable tiling. But I
would speak of bun as a christian. It was
my privilege to witness his first public pro
fession of fallk In Cbriat. It was lu the
summer of 188.1 at? New Bethel Church.
Taere was no great demonstration but a
bright profession. It was in an experience
mce'l ng. when to the surprise of many (but
not to me) Kro. Coi-l.rell stood up sad spoke
out in a few pointed words, telling us of bis
fe-'inifs and of bis determination for the
Suture. A few weeks after this he joined
the Cumberland Presbyterian cbnrch and
was a true brother until flailed home.
While Bro, Coekrell was a pronounced O
1', bo loved all christians and was fond of
all the pieachers. Notblug seemed to af
ford him more pleasure than to have the
preaohers visit bim at his borne. Tbis wri
ter has olten enjoyed tbo sunshine of bis
happy homo. tSlsu.ll i speak of Mr, Cock
retl lu bis home lire- f One would only have
to cross tbut darkened threshold, as tbis
writer did on yesterday, to see that a bright
light bad gone out ; to fool that darkness
bad fallen on Its Inmates. There sat tbe
trusting wie who in sunshine and storm
had been bis constant compaulon for thir
ty six years, feeling the keeu anguish of
ber awful loneliness. There wss deur sis
ter Wells, tha aged mothcr-ln-law, past ber
three score aud ten yoais. who had ever
found In Bro. Coekrell a true and affection
ate son, feeling ber sad bereavement ; there
wero lbs ueh-cit, Misses Hutchinson and
Morobesd, all so lonely; and yet, thank
Gad, not all alone, for embroiled In each
heart sits the Bnvlotir of the World, the
Christ that Bro. Coekrell loved aud served,
peaking tbe words ot comfort that no one
else cm speak. This writer bss lost a
friend, and while I would lay s .flower on
bis grsve, I would tender to his loved ones
tba sympathy of a true friend.

DON'T STOP TOBACCO
HOW TO CURB TOURSfiJLF
WHILE USING IT.
The tobacco baliit crows on a man lint'.l
his nerrouv srstem is seriously afl'ectad, im
pairing health, comfort and happiness. To
quit suddeiilv is too severe a shock to the
system, as tobacco lo un inveterate user be
comes a stimulant that his srstem contlnu-,
ally craves. " Baco-Curo" is a scientilic
cure for tho tobacco habit, in all its forms,
carefully compounded attar the formula of
an eminent Berlin physician who has used
It in bis private practice since 1872, with
out failure. It Is purely vegetable and
guaranteed perlectly harmless. You csn
line all the tobacco you wont while taking
" B .co-Curo." It wiil notify you wben lo
stop. We give a written guarantee to cure
permanently any case with three boxes or
reluncl the money with 10 per cent, inter
est. ' Itaco-Curo" is not a substitute but
a scientilic cure, that cures without the aid
of will power and witb uo Inconvenience.
It leaves the system as pure and free from
nicotine as the tlsy you took your first chew
or smoke.
