NABELLE y. CLARKE.

Mabelle n. Clarke was born III Charles
ton, VT, July &c, 1873, and died in St.
Joseph, Missouri, June 5, 1895.
Miss Clarke left Island Pond last Oc-
toher to reside with her sister, Mrs. 0.
NJ. Carpenter. About eight weeks ago
she was attacked with malarial fever. A
continued illness ensued with various
complications which seemed to place the
patient hey ond the aid of the best physi-
clans to be secured, and although watched
over with tenderest care the life flowed
out and the spirit returned to GOD who
gave it.
MabeIe as she was familiarly known
at Island Pond, was greatly beloved by
a large circle of friends. She was we'll
and favorably known as teacher, and
many are the young people who will
remember the cheerful assistance rem
dered them in the school room. She was
much sought in society OH account Other
sunny ways, making friends on every
side. For many years she had rendered
much assistance in the choir of Grace NJ
/ E. Church She was very constant as
organist for the praise service. In all
these places she will be greatly missed.
We know that the loss will he felt the
keeneSt in the home circle. She leaves a
! father, four sisters and two brothers as
we'll as numerous other relatives who
bow in sorrow. The happy voice is
hushed; the place is vacant; but it viii
be sweet to remember that the sorrow
was universal to all who knew her, and
that loving sympathy was on every side
But vet in these dark hours we need some
friend who can go farther than any hut
man being. Such friend we find in Him
who said, so am with you Away even
unto the end"
The funeral service was held Sunday at
Q D. M, at the residence of G. E. Clarke
Rev. G. O. Howe officiating. The very
large number of friends of all ages who
were present testified to the high esteem
of the community at large. The flora
offerings were profuse, beautiful and ap
propriate. The music was furnished by
four of her lady friends. Tenderly The
human casket was laid aside, and We
turn to the life that remains.
We are deprived of her companionshir
she has gone on before. Let us not
grow weak and faint with overmuch sor
row, but strive to scatter the flowers anC
sunshine in the path of those who re
main. The afflicted friends have the
heartfelt sympathy Of ALL II.

Patrons of the opera hall are growing
indignant at what seems to them to be
great nuisance. We refer to the condi-
ton of the seats, the noise from which ii
the occuper only moves is sufficient to
distract everybodys attention from the
exercises whatever they may be. This
disturbance was painfully noticeable Me-
mortal Day, also last Friday night at
the graduation exercises. 1t is very de-
sirable that something should be done at
once to stop or at least mitigate the
nuisance.

only one tongue, a physiological sugges'

more than we tell. There are not lack.
ing those ignorant would-be mischief
