had gone to be with the angels. ''Can

white Grape on the door told the pass
ers-by that death had taken little child
from the home. Now the mother had
ventured into the nursery to touch the
clothing which her darling had made
sacred They were not elegant gar
ments, at least they were not of finest
lace and cambria, but every article told
of the love which made it. There were
no careless stitches, no sparing of pains
could be discovered. Fine, dainty,
chaste in every detail, they spoke pa
thetically of the tenderness which fash
ioned them. And now what could be
done with themp
A beautiful box was made; it was of
satin-wood and silver, and on the ham
die was craven the name, Lily"
Into this, between silver paper, and
with sprays of rosemary, was laid the
tiny wardrobe. Here the mother came
to weep, to open afresh the never-heal-
ING wound. Here she recalled each
precious word and look of her lost one;
here she tried to imagine the little
arms again around her neck, the soft
cheek pressed to hers.
Her grief became first selfish. then
morbid The luxury of tears forbade
exertion, which is one Of Gods laws for
healthy spiritual development.
One day friend came. "My DEAR"
she said, ''what is to become of these
little things when you can no longer
shed tears over themp Are they to be
buried, as sweet Lily's body was when
her soul went up to GodP'

"Oh, could not give away my dar-
ling's clothes. Noother child must wear
them.''
''Here are great many garments"
continued her friend; "and think how
many little children are in need. l re-
member Lily always wanted to give to
the poor
"Yes,'' mused the mother.
The friend said no more, but her
words sank deep into the stricken heart.
Before her great sorrow she had been
generous to the needy. Now she re-
membered with sharp pain that she had
forgotten all those who once depended
largely on her bounty. One thought
suggested another, and soon she saw
her future path shining in clear light
the light of love.
With tender memories, but with a
strong resolve, the boarded treasures
were brought forth. Little children
were made glad, and mothers hearts
comforted. And did the angel Lily
seem farther away for this sacrifice?
Oh, no! When the material bond was
broken, the mothers thought went
naturally to greet her child in her heay-
enly Joy. Instead of tears of anguish
over the earthly relics, there were tears
Of JOY that her darling was so blessed.
Did her love lessen? Never. But her
power to love deepened as she thought
of those things which are eternal, and
realized that her child had entered upon
them. Harper's Bazar.

After awhile when the fire had been
extinguished, her father reached home
to find the house in commotiOn,

4 Sad Bereavement.

Last Monday there was terrible
scene on the Atlantic h Pacific express
which left this city over the c., b. q
@. Railway. q The conductor went into
one Of the coaches and found a woman
sobbing convulsively, wringing her
hands and exhibiting all the tokens of
overwhelming grief, He supposed her
husband had gone out and stood on the
platform, in direct violation of the
company's rules, and had fallen off
and been run over by few cars and
laid out in the ditch prey for the
willy and vigilant Coroner. He ques
toned her, with view to extending
the usual consolation, and giving her
the fullest assurances that she couldn' t
recover cent from the company, and
had better compromise on whatever
they offered her. M st
"Oh,n the stricken woman ex-
claimed as the conductor approached
her, g l can't bear to let him 60"
NO. the conductor said, marking
with his eye a man without ticket
who was making all haste to go to
sleep in the seat next the stove :" No,
it's hard sometimes. but it can't be
helped
q But" she pleaded, he's never
been away from me before. We have
gone everywhere together
E1 The conductor wondered what heydid
with her ON lodge and election nights,
and then he supposed he did as the
rest ofus do. and lied to her. Then he
said. 49, - as
