In this was the essence of religion. This
he carried forward to the spirit world.
The comfort and aid we derive from our
trials in this life come to us from depart
ed friends. He closed with all earnest
prayer to the spirits to help and bless
them all. We could but think how utter
ly insignificant and worthless is all this
boosted advanced thought to the SUBJ
lime realities of the Christian religion.
Helpless, insignificant spirits, but little
in advance of ourselves, and who can do
nothing without permission, are put in
the place of the Omnipotent God of the
universe, whom Paul calls 1.-THE God of
all comfort" who, the Psalmist says,
"pitieth US like as father pitch his
children, and who knoweth and is able to
supply all our needs. God is dethroned
and helpless spirits are put in His place.
Then how infinitely inferior is the love,
sympathy and help of the best of spirits
to the infinite love and sympathy of our
divine Saviour, who is human to sympa-
thies and divine to help. Then how
obscured and contradictory is Spiritual
ism. 1t believes I'm the puerile and some
times obscure revelations of modern
spirits and rejects the sublime revelations
which the Great Spirit of all has made af
himself and confirmed by miracles and
prophecies, sometimes hundreds of years
before they came to pass. AS Christ and
His Divinity were ridiculed and rejected
we could but think of the words of John,
''That every spirit that confesseth not
that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is
not of God," and as we made. our way
homeward we wondered if modern Spir-
itualism was referred to by Paul when
he speaks of those who. falling away
from the faith ''give heed to seducing
spirits" G. F. MORSE.

Mrs. Phoebe Fish Draper. wife of A lali<

VT, March 10, 1900, and died in Sheldon,
W., at the nome OF ner son. Horace
Draper. May Is. 1884, in the 85th year of
her age. She came to Sheldon in her
mothers arms, on horse back. when this
country was wilderness, and remained
until death. Early in life she was con-
verified to God and joined the Methodist
Episcopal church. Thus for a number
of years her name was enrolled in the
church militant, until she calmly and
peacefully passed to the church triumph
ant. As far as the writer is able to as
certain her long life was the exhibition
of the fruits of the spirit. her tender de-
votion to her children. Her burdens
were laid upon the Lord. She leaves a
brother, Daniel Fish, the only surviving
member of her fathers family, and three
sons. Her funeral was held in the Con-
gregational church, her pastor, S. G.
Vail, officiating, assisted by Rev. Will
liam Carr. A large circle of friends and
relatives were in attendance. Thus an
other of the remaining pioneers, after a
long life of labor, has passed to her re-
ward. May He, whose power and SYM
pathy are alike infinite, both sustain and
comfort the bereaved.

respondent one day last week and re-
quested him to spend day at his mill
and keep tally of the amount of lumber
sawed; accordingly the next morning
found your correspondent on hand with
book and pencil. and the result of ten
hours saving was 28567 feet of one inch
boards. sawed from spruce logs mostly,
IL feet long and to Ia inches wide, taking
'35S logs to make the boards. Eleven men
did the work. which did not include the
engineers. Two of them stacked the lum-
Der. one run it out on trucks distance of
forty-five rods to the piles. one hauled
away slabs cut up for the stove and edg-
ings, it requiring but about one-half the
edgings to run the engines. His help
consisted mostly of Pors6yase boys and a
more willing or active sS4 of men will be
hard to find. Mr.. Hill has in stock of
logs and lumber of nearly five million
feet and ships his lumber to Montpelier.
He has just set in another of Lanes heavy
