In Memoriam.

Mrs. EvALINE, wife OF Tankersley Carter,
departed this elife Oct. oath. 1881, aged 5S
years, z months and 20 days. The funeral
Male, from Second Corinthians, Sd chapter,
17sh and 18th verses. After the sermon, the
corpse was accompanied by a large number of
friends and relatives to the place of interment.
Mrs. Carter, though not a member :of any
church, professed religion two months previ-
GUS to her death, and during that time she
was not heard to murmur or complain. She
was faithful mother and loving compan-
ion. l would say to the bereaved, let US there
fore remember that in all our Affections God
has some merciful design the execution of
which will contribute to the temporal and
eternal welfare OF our home. He designs
either to correct us if we do wrong, or to pre-
vent US from doing wrong, or test our Chris
tan fidelity. Death is great teacher. Sour
ces Of pensiIe reflection and spiritual commu-
nion are opened which none but death could
unseal. Though our loved ones are gone,
they are still with us in spirit; yea they are
ours still in the best sense of possession; our
relationship with them is not destroyed but
hallOwed.
Though absent, they still live and love; and
they come thronging as ministering spirits to
our hearts; they hover near us and commune
with US. Your departed companion and
mother, though separated from YOU in body,
is still yours, she represents your household
in heaven and is promise that you will be
there also if you will only accept Christ. To
more fully illustrate death l would quote the
language of the poet.
How blest the righteous when he dies!
When sinks weary soul to rest,
How mildly beams the closing eyes,
How gently heaves the expiring breast.

THE MISSOURI REPUBLICAN.
PR S P E G T U 8.

This paper, usually called the st. Louis
Republican, published in the great traus- Mis-
sissippi emporium, was established in 1908,
whilst the now fourishing State of Missouri
was small territory and st. Louis a mere out
post, the headquarters of a few Government
officers and Indian traders. The Republican
has steadily incr eased from diminutive sheet,
printed weekly and containing but little more
than local and unimportant events, to a rep
resentative American journal, holding place
in the front rank OF the great newspapers ofth
world. Its history is the history of the West
and South in all enterprises, and in all the ma
terial, political and social interests Of the coun-
try. Its the exponent of the views OF that class
of citizens who seek to have the Government
conducted upon Democratic, popular and con-
servative principles, and in that regard is the
organ Of the most intelligent and thoughtful
mir ds Of the extensive region in which it circu-
lates. Itreaches great majority Of post-offic-
es throughout Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, Iowa
and Arkansas, and is disseminated more or less
largely in every other State and Territory, be-
sides going to all important points in Europe.
Its various editions reach over one hundred
thousand homes, counting-rooms. stores and
offices; this fact growing out of q steady and
uniform growth, as population las increased
and mail facilities expanded. Its readers are
the ''bone and slnew" OF the country, well in
formed and influential.
The Republican, from the care with which
it is edited and condu cted, the enterprise
manifested in the collection of news from all
quarters, its consistency in the advocacy Of
principles bearing upon the prosperity and
we'll being of the people, has built up cir.
culation not to be estimated merely by its
numerical greatness.
The Republican is published by men chiefly
who have grown up from boyhood in the busi-
paper the study of their lives. 1t is practically
impossible that any event of real Importance
and not be published in the Republican before
the rising of the next sun. With the means
and the purpose to publish all the news, read
ers of it's columns will have no reason to look
further for history OF the times.
To those engaged in commerce, and indeed
all who buy or sell, or are concerned In what
is bought and sold, the Republican will sup
| ply all necessary and desirable information SO
far as it can be found in the most comeplete and
careful commercial reports from every i'm
portant trade centre and stock market in the
world.
These are some of the features of a concern
