Her little life was short and transit

blossom offspring. Though she leaves
fond parents and friends to mourn
her early departure, she leaves with
them the comforting hope that
Though her life is closed. her voice is
hushed on earth, she lives and sings
in Heaven. Her life and death con-

Awake the same possessing.

strict local option law, but neyerthe-
less, there is distillery in the coun-
~. working under United States
license. Now as no man makes
whisky for fun, and as the instances
are rare of men who can alone con-
sumo the product of a distillery, the
manufacturers naturally sought to sell
the whisky to his neighbors, but Lo-
cal Option came in and forbade him
and when he complained to the Uni
ted States authorities he was inform
ed that the general government guar
antees no right where it conflicts with
the State law.

me space in your columns for few
corrections in "Obseryer's" commu-
munication, which appeared in your
issue of last week. The author says
the Amish do not use bread and wine
on communion occasions. This is
not correct. They use bread and
wine exclusively, and do not make
full meal, nor does kind of broth
or soup form their sacred emblems.
The author is also mistaken in say
ing that their services are conducted
without singing. 1t is the invariable
custom to sing before and after
