Altar of Roses.

Tradition hath it that altar Of -o'es
was first used by Nourjeha1, Moorc's
Nourmanal, otherwise "Light Of the
Harem." Walking one Gcy in her
garden, through which ran canal Of
rosewater, she spied upon its surface oily
particles that excited her curiosity. In
sheer idleness she collected them; founl
them 50 deliciously fragrant that she az
once cried for more, with the result 0,

husbands loyal subjects. Once the
precious essence was worth its weigh, i'll

Turkey supplies the most aud purest
d it. That which comes from India is
usually adutcrated with oil of lemon
grass. Bulgaria is the Turks greatest
rose garden. There, upon the long, cool
north hill slopes he plants the hundred
leaf rose and tends it ass.duously. IT,
plant is tickle and capricious as any
coquette. Upon one hill it will bloom
and broaden magnidcently, yet wholly
lack scent, while on another not half
mile away it will fairly intoxicate you
with its perfume.
May is the time Of harvest. Then
there are flowers by the million. They
must be picked before sunrise, as soon as
they open, else they lose more than half
their sweetness.
The leaves are put into clay stills with
twice their own weight OF water. What
passes over is the roseyater ofcomnerce.
The altar floats on top in oily globules
that are hardened by exposure to the cool
night air, then skinned oil. Sixty
pounds of good leaves will yield an ounce

Obituary.

Martha Z. Carty departed this life at the
home of her mother, Ann Elizabeth Belcher
Granlteville, Iron county, Mo-, on the 20th
day of March, 1891, aged 90 years, 3 months
and q days.
Deceased was united in marriage on the
4th of September, 1890, to William Carly.
So young, SO tender and lovely to be snatch
ed away from the loving embrace and kind
affections of a loving husband, mother,
father, brothers, sisters and friends. While
their hearts are torn with grief at the loss of
this dear departed one, she left evidence be-
hind that it was her gain to be taken home
to rest. Sister Martha professed hope in
Christ during her illness; she was conscious
to the last minute, calling her friends around
her one by one, telling them not to grieve for
her for she was going home to Jesus and
asked them to meet her in heaven. When
asked if she was afraid of the sting of death
she replied that death had no terror for her.
She requested that the Rev. j. M. Nelson of
Annapolis should preach her funeral. He
preached to large congregation at the res
idence of the deceased's mother, taking for
his text Romans 14th chapter, Sth verse.
At the close of the services song was sung,
one she selected before she died. While
singing the friends took the farewell look at
the remains of Sister Martha. Her remains
were taken to Pilot Knob, followed by
large concorse of friends and relatives, and
deposited in the tomb to await the summons
for the final resurrection.
Praise ye the Lord that am freed from all
care,
Serve We the Lord that nv bliss We NAV share.
Look up on high and believe | am there
When | am gone-I am gone.
