 Tomorrow, November 1, Is All Saints Day. day held very sacred by the Epis- copal and Catholic churches in all parts of the civilized world. It is an occa sion set apart in memory of those whom Eve have loved and lost awhile'' In memory of those who have gone before us into a perfect existence this day is kept, and while solemn chants wing their heaven ward way, they will mingle with those of angels who answer upon golden harps this message from our human hearts. Many a weary. tired life holds today graves that tell of buried hopes and ago. niZing separations, and to them All Saints Day comes as a benediction, bringing with it a renewal of the hopes of an eternal restoration and reuniting It is sweet to feel that our spirits may mingle in love and well-nigh human sym pathy at such a time, although between us rolls the sea of death, and to know that a time is coming-a grand. eternal All Saints Day-when we may all keep the feast beyond the stars.
