Unconscious all that dreary day;
1ether mind was clear, her eyes ere bright
III seemed, they had n touch Of another light
She knew them all at ten,
Called their names and called again
For the loved ones she longed TO SEQ
One time more ere eternity.
Her senses failed, her strength had fed
she knew not the loved ones around her bed
Yet with gentle hands she was caressed,
Ienderly, lovingly, her forehead pressed.
Watched the %tieeting breath come and 90.

And the same sweet voice, the same, did say.

And Mary a. Barkley passed away
To join her husband, tried and true.
And bridal joys again renew
In the bllssful realms Of eternal day,
For this in life they both oft did pray.

They touched so light each cord so slender.
And alike at dawn and close Of day

When sleep is unknown and unknown is

Yet there is always relief in prayer,
And no wonder we sometimes heard them
cry,
Lord help me TO bear it," with heaving sigh,
This were a day, a sight, l ween
That no one present had ever seen,
Yet many were they who had gathered there
To see the result of an answered prayer.
With loving;hands their corpse we bore
Ger paths they'd trod so oft before
Der paths in pleasure oft together
But paths they'd walk no more forever,
"A double grave was opened wide,
And they were both laid side by side.
With prayer and sons laid down to rest
with a single mound above their breast,
So we were forced to leave them there
Until Gabrieps trumpet shall rend the air.
Their days of suffering On earth are passed
And now they're gathered home at last;
But the three score years and ten, which
were given,

Then rejoice, We loved ones, in glorious hope,
For that dark grave yet shall ope
When Jesus, their Savior and Judge. shall

To gather his children home.

The wandering streams all come together.

Oh, speak your troubled hearts be still!

To dwell with Jesus evermore.

Victory Institute

In view of the fact that the school at
victory Institute, which closed last
Tuesday, has been a very successful
one; we think it nothing more than a
duty to say a few words in praise Of
this school and the gentlemen who
taught it. 1t was taught by Prof. Chas.
MAIDEN and Abe NJ. Barnes. These
gentlemen are well qualified, and hav-
ing several years experience in the
school room, they known just what it
takes to constitute a good school. Dur.
ing this term they have certainly done
honor to themselves and to the school
at this place. They both are men of
sterling qualities, kind, genial and
possess the power of gaining the con
hdence and cooperation of their pu-
pills. They are deep thinkers and ear
nest advocates of education.
From the beginning of the school to
Its close, they have spared no pains to
make their pupils interests their own.
we have never heard q word of COM
plant concerning this school; in fact
there can be no complaint, as the di-
r%ectors, the patrons and the pupils all
are highly pleased with the work that
these gentlemen have accomplished.
BY their kindness, their impartiality
and the interest they have taken
in our school, these men have reared
an edifce of respect for themselves in
the hearts and minds of the pupils and
patrons of this school.
Years may come and 60, and effect
many changes for US as students, but
the memories of the five months spent
SO pleasantly and profitably with Profs.
MAIDEN and Barnes at Victory Insti.

hearts of all who were under their
care. LIT. L. MANN.

II asked the question "Have you got
a stomachp" it would be safe on gen.
eral principles, to answer yes" But
if you are sure of it; that is, if you
ever feel any distress after eating or
any pains of whatever description in
the region of the stomach, you have
got something more than an ordinary
stomach; in other words, you have got
a diseased stomach. The stomach is IA
powerful muscle, and the proper remedy
for a tired muscle is rest. Try the
Shaker Digestive Cordial, for this pro-
duct not only contains digested food,
which will nourish the system without
any work on the part of the diseased
organs, but it aids the digestion of
other foods as we'll. You can test its
value in your case for the triling sum
of ten cents. Sample bottles at this
price are carried by all druggists.
