cortege arrived a large number Of
friends had gathered to pay their
last tribute of respect to a woman
who lead a spotless life and whose
many kind words and charity will
be fondly cherished by all who
ever came III contact with her. The
services were of particularly sad
nature. The casket and grave were
covered with d profusion of beau
tiful flowers among them a large
bunch IF lovely white lilies, fit en-
blems of the pure, sweet life Of
Mrs. Fannie Lazier. Bell.

Teaches the Art Of Mourning.

A Southern woman, who, until recent
w had never been Obliged 10 toll or
spin." discovered on the death of her
father that she would have to ind some
way Of partially supporting herself. There
seemed to be nothing that she was really
CAPABLE Of doing, and her friends pitied
and sympathized and wondered what was
going TO become of her At last she de-
cided to 20 to New York, and several
months after her arrival a lady whom
she had known at the South, and who
was passing through the city, called upon
her.
Have you found something TO do?'
asked the friend with interest.
ooh, yes was the smiling answer, Il
am giving lessons in ceremonial mourn
ing. You know, there are great many
people who are not up In the ways OF
polite society. but who are always anX-
ious TO do the correct thing In regard
to all the outward observances. When
they come to me tell them exactly how
long they should wear black for this or
that relative, when they can with pro-
priety tighten, when they can with pro-
priety tighten their mourning. how wide
the border should be on their cards and
stationery. and which invitations they
may accept and which they ought TO de-
