Sal ne Boy Has Smallpox.
All P. Rector received a telegram
from his son George last night, who
is attending William Jewell Col
lege at Liberty, saying that Albert
Shelton, the sou of Rev. Shelton of
SUter, has the small pox and that
all the boys living in the same
house, George among them, were
quarantined. Shelton lives in the
Sigoi Nu chapter house and all
the Ih s of the fraternity are cut
off from school and can't even
write home for money. The health
authorities are preparing to move
them to the country until the dread
disease is stamped out.
Writes Home.
A letter reciived this week from
Tucker Gower. who is a member
ol the 39th Keg't Baud, now in the
Philippines, says he is well and
having barrels of fun.
His regiment is called "Col.
Bullard's North American Indi
ans" ttitl Tucker says, if Otis
would all w thcm.tlu-y would clean
up the Filipinos iu a month.
Family History.
Rev. J.'F, Kemper has recently
received the history of his family,
compiled by a cousin iu Cincinnati
from family nud official records.
The first definite record ol the
family is contained in the books of
the church, in the village of Miiscn,
Germany, which shows that the
family was living there in 1650.
But for the fact that the former
church, with all its then records,
was destroyed bv fire during the
Thirty Years War. which ended in
164K, it is probable the family his
tory could be traced to a much
earlier period. "In a Latin note
to the ballad King Kstmere" in
Percy's Reliqucsof English Poetry,
Vol. I, p-ge 74, the name Kemper
seems to be identified with the An
cient German trihe, the Cimbri.
Whether the Cituliri were so called
Irccause they w re recogniztd mm
rswlfriwe as "the warriors" or
whether after this trile, celebrated
for its fighting qualities, all brave,
good fighting men were called
Cimber, Kimler, Kemper, the note
leaves uncertain. The old German
verb Kcititei means "to contend, to
fight."
The nnrcs'or of the American
family came to the Colony of Vir
ginia in 1714 and settled with
twelve other Germans nt "Ger-
manna," 0:1 the Rapid Ann river
! in what is now Orange u unity.
ERFECT womanhood depends on perfect health.
Nature's rarest gifts of

Sweat dispositions turn morbid
The possessions that win goon Hus
bands and keep their love should be guard
edby women every moment of their lives.
The greatest menace to woman's per
manent happiness in life is the suffering
that comes from derangement of the
feminine organs.
Manv thousands of women have realised
this too late to save their beauty, barely in time to save their
lives. Many other thousands have availed of the generous in
vitation of Mrs. Pinkham to counsel all suffering women fret
of charge.
Mrs. H. J. Garretson, Bound Brook, N. J., writes: "Dear
1
the room without help. After giving up all hopes of recovery,
I was advised to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and wrote for special Information. I began to improve)
from the first bottle, and am now fully restored to health."
The family in a lew years moved
to what is now Lanquier county,
Va. There some of the descend
ants still remain. One of them
owns and lives upon land that was
leased by his ancestor from the
Colonial proprietors in 1726, and
he lives now in a house, part of
which was built in 1745. Over the
door of this house there is to-day a
popular plank carved in 1754, with
this inscription "Believe on the
Lord Jesus Christ and then thou
shalt be saved and thine house."
The history as now compiled in
cludes over 3000 names, but the
author slates that be is satisfied
the family descendants number
over 5000
1 he Kempers were from the be
ginning u sturdy race, and many of
tbem have been prominent and use
ful iu the affairs of the country, and
of the various churches to which
they have la-longed. Rev. J F.
Kemper belongs to the eighth gen
eration Iroin the original settler in
this country.
