Death Of Mrs. Fred Jorgensen.

After a lingering illness of a years
duration MIS-. Clara Jorgensen died
Thursday afternoon March 22nd 1894 of
consumption. She was young

years old and the youngest 3. She

Mrs. C.. 0. Baker in the South.

The lecture given at the Opera House
Friday afternoon by Mrs. C. 0. Baker, of
Chicago, was attended by fully five hun
dred ladies and was very ENJOYABLE.
Mrs. Baker caught the audience when
she began and held them in their
charmed state, fully two hours.
The tribute to motherhood was beauti-
full, appealing to the noblerinstinct with
a view to turning her thought to herself
as Gods appointed instrument, to lead
her children up to higher ideal of
maternity, and its holy relationships.
She said these beautiful truths should
receive proper reflection; the first
impressions on ills subject should not
be given by those untitled by association
to impart them.
From this point Mrs. Baker turned
gracefully to the subject of suitable
nourishment and clothing for children,
physical development, etc, until the
child girl reach the bud of womanhood,
from which, if proper care was exerted,
she would develop intoa full blown rose
oflovely womarhood. Having attained
this, she will be adapted for the mission
designed by nature for her in wifehood
or motherhood.
The picture was then viewed from the
standpoint of Indifferent nourishment,
neglect of physical culture and moral
bent-until the word painter left no
effort latent, to cause the hearts and
consciences Of the audience to wish a
reform for this generation.-The Daily
Mercury, Huntsville, Alabama.
