TRAQo.-Gracie, daughter of Charles T. and Mary
Trago born June 18TH 1884, and died January 3d.
1856, aged one six months and fifteen days. She
spent her short life in almost constant suffering.
She bud earth to bloom in fair cline. Her
death has cast gloom the home circle, and
called forth tears of sympathy from the eyes of
strangers. Her funeral well attended, and all
seemed deeply affected while Rev. L. Manns deliv-
cred very touching and sympathetic discourse,
from Thess. 4. l3 Wherefore should you weep? She
cannot return to you, but you go to her. There
is another little angel in glory. AS the number OF
little graves increases for the graves nlled
hearts and homes emptied Like Rachel of old,
they weep for their chldrin and will not be COM
forted because they not. But soon the morning
will restore the buried babe you now deplore.
Under thatlittle mound lies the object of mothers
love- Round it your hearts love to linger. Gather
the little toys To you they will be precious. En-
trust the little sleeper to Him that doeth all things
| well. Though there may be a vacant chair or an
empty CRADLE the tapping of little feet not heard
think that your loss is her eternal gain. Hear what
Jesus says: THE Lord giveth the Lord taketh away
blessed be the name of the Lord.'
Little Gracie's gone and left us,
Here her loss we deeply feel;
But tits the Lord has bereft us,
| He can all our SORROWS heal.

The Portsmouth Times suggests that
when the Company gives Dick Burns an
engine again it should be put together
with sticking-plaster, as the strings rot
and break. Seriously, the record of the
Branch for the past twenty years speaks
volumes in praise of Burns and his fellow
engineers. The rule seems to have been
to give the Branch engines not of the
first grade, yet there have been no serious
wrecks, and really very little damage.
There is no better set of railroaders any
where than on the branch.

An old citizen of Jackson tells a good
story of certain person in an adjoining
county some years ago, who was afflicted
with mania for stealing chickens. An
old neighbor met him one day, and said:
"Well, whose chickens did you steal last
night? ?" "None of your businessp' was
the reply, "but I'll be after yours, one of
these nights" Gall right, just let me
know, will you, when you're comingF'
So, few days afterward, the thief sent
him word that on certain night he
would come. On the appointed night the
owner of the chickens loaded double
barreled shotgun to the muzzle, and
waited for the thief. Along in the night
he heard the chickens squall, and bound
ing out of bed, slipped out on the roof of
his house. and catching glimpse of the
shadow of the thief, he turned the old
gun loose, when the thief jumped up and
gave big "whoopr "Ha! I missed
you, did I? Just wait till load her up
againp' But he didn't wait!

Charley Dickson is the only man who
completely got away with the severe
weather of the recent cold wave. He
took sleigh ride from away up Sandy,
being four or five days on the road. He
purchased yoke of cattle and sled up
there. and with a big icicle for an ox-gad,
he lit out with his untamed steeds. One
friend declares that the drifts were SO
deep in places that Charley trained his
cattle to wade upon their hind legs
through the drifts. The storms came, the
winds blew, the earth froze-but Dicka-
son and the cattle came plodding home as
contentedly as Santa Claus off on
Christmas jaunt. Those cattle are Dem
ocrats-that's the reason they can stand
being out in the cold.

A stock dealer of this place who visited
a city cattle market few days ago says
it is surprising to see how carefully every
thing in the way of beef is looked after.
Old cows, poor and unfit for anything
else-unit for anything, in fact, are
bought up as low as two cents per pound,
and worked up into corned beef, which
will bring a high price in market. Every
vestige of a carcass is worked up, in diff
ferent ways, even the smallest remnant
of bone being saved. In reality the bone
dust factories are often cheated to pro-
cure corned beef and bologna.

front of his exhibition of the wonders
he had inside. A man standing in

you cannot let me see a lion.' Done

your money The man placed a dol
lar in the hand of bystander. and
the Snowman did the same. Now
walk this way said the Snowman,
'and I'll soon convince you. There
you are,' said he, triumphantly; look
in the corner at that beautiful Numi-
dian lion.' L don't see any, respond
ed the other What's the matter
with you p asked the Snowman. Pm
blind was the grinning reply, and in
a few minutes the blind man pocketed
the two dollars and went away.
