IM MEMORIAM.
M. L. ROBINSON.
Brother Melvin Logan Robin
: son was a native of Tennessee,
Tipton county, being born June
i 22, 1825. He moved with his
i parents to Jackson county, Ar
| kansas, in 1831. He was highly
1 esteemed as a man, a neighbor
j and citizen.
So far as known. Brother Rob
ertson was the oldest Arkansas
Mason. He was made a Mason
in his 22nd year, or in the year
1817. Early in that year he was
raised. He maintained his stand
ing and his interest in Masonry
fifty-eight years. Your commit
tee feels safe in saying that no
man now lives who was made a
Mason in Arkansas at so early a
period. Brother Robinson was
the nestor of Arkansas Masonry,
having been initiated, passed and
raised on her soil. As no Arkan
sas Mason lives who could vie
with our brother in his length of
relationship to the order in this
State, so none could surpass him
in loyalty to the institution or in
his faithfulness to Masonic teach
ings.

growth of Masonry in Arkansas
from the merest handful of scat
tered men in diverse quarters to
a host of over fifteen thousand.
From an almost unknown quanti
ty in “Uncle Mel's” early man
hood. Masonry grew into national
fame and honor, so that while he
yet stood in life the General
Grand Chapter of Royal Arch
Masons met within our borders.
Had it not been for the native
modesty of our brother, who
never made mention of himself,
it would have been known that
he was entitled to special honor,
and Jackson Chapter, of which
he was an honored member,
would have given itself the pleas
ure of presenting Uncle Mel to
that august body.
He was laid to rest with the
ritual of the lodge. January 17,
1905.
Whereas, Brother Robinson, so
well known as to be “Uncle
Mel” to all his neighbors, was for
so many years a Mason, loving
the order and giving it much of
his best time and thought; and
Whereas, he was a good exem
plar of the exalted principles of
Masonry; reflecting honor on the
institution by his well ordered
and consistent life; and
Whereas, he has been raised
by the Supreme Architect of the
Universe to the Lodge on High;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That Jackson Lodge
No. 191 hereby testifies to his
strength of manhood, nobility of
character and faithfulness to the
exalted principles of Masonry.
Rn if i-m»f li nv
Resol ;ed. That this minute be
spread upon the record of the
lodge, a copy of the same be
transmitted to the family of the
deceased, and a copy furnished
for publication to the Masonic
Trowel.

TOURIST CARS POPULAR.
The idea that an inferior class
of people patronize the tourist
sleepers is an error. On many
trips only the best class of trav
elers are found. They are merely
men and women of good sense
who would rather travel to Cali
fornia in this manner and save
a snug sum of money to be used
elsewhere. It is beginning to be
i understood that it is by no means
necessary for the traveler to
| spend a large sum of money in
. order to enjoy a trip to the Pa
; cific coast.
If you cross the continent in
one of the tourist sleepers of the
Union Pacific you will enjoy your
trip and save considerable money.

I Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping “it will wear away/* are I
■ drifting towards Bright’s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms. ■
FOLEYSKIDNEYCURE
stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues B
► of the kidneys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out B
the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and B
t' the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body, B
t causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. B
If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder Trouble commence taking FOLEY’S B
KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a B
\ % fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system. B
How to Find Out.
You can easily determine if your kidneys are
out of order by setting aside for 24 hours a
bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, your kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE should be taken
at once.
G. B. Burhans Testifies After Four Years.
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
"About four years ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirely
cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking less than two bottles of
Foley's Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick-dust sediment and
pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that
I have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four
years that have elapsed, and I am evidently cured to stay cured, and
heartily recommend Foley’s Kidney Cure to any one suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble.'
