The funeral cortege which followed the re-
mains of Mrs. s. e. Holden to their last rest
ing place in Maple Park Cemetery yesterday
afternoon was one of the largest that has been
seen in Springfield for some time past The

He had no fear, though the river was wide
For Jesus has carried him over the tide.
You know where to and your loved one In

Though every fond tic you hsve chosen Is rivcn,

Where there Il no dread and the weary onel
Hes gone TO live with the Saviour so fair;
He'll look for you dear ones. and wait for you
Where no tear can aow. where death canno,
Together you'n dwell in that beautiful home.
Although your loved one has gone before,
To sing his dear Redeemer's praise,
You'll meet beyond that shining shore,
And chant the new song through endless days

MFR. d. A. Phillips will sell the
Nice ornick Harvesting Machines this

mick Co. are obliged to make at the
rate of one complete machine every
minute of the day in order to supply
their worldwide demand-the Nc
Cermick being almost as we'll known
on the steppes Of Russia, the plains
Of the Danube and in the winter har-
vests of the Southern Hemisphere
Australia, South Africa and South
America, as it is here. Mr. Phillips
also showed us the fac-simile of the
Gold Stats Medaille which the Nc
Cormfck "Machine of SteeI' won at
the great Universal Exposition trials
held at Vienna last summer. The
Mccormick catalogue, which by the
way he keeps for gratuftous dfstribu-
zion, is work of art, and will repay
careful reading, while the lithograpic
poster Of the historic battle of the
Monitor aud Merrimac is the finest
thing We have ever seen published
When we take into consideration the
fact that the Mccormick Co. sold
los, 4e8 machines in 1890, the popu-
larity of their Harvesters and Now
ers and the capacity of their NAM
moth works affords an interesting
snhieet for contemplation.
