jewels"

little Alice, only child of Mr.. and Mr.
Raymond Beatty. left US, to live with bel
Redeemer. She was too ripe for earth, t. {
pure and lovely to dwell in these 10"
grounds of sin and death, and hence her
early transla ion to the heavenly world.
We feel that her departure ought not tc
be STYLED dying but living. and we know
that size has merely gone home. Her strict
attention and earnest look has often Ell
couraged her 8 s. teacher in her work. and
We miss the bright eyes and helpful little
hands, but, thank God, we know She il
not dead. but ~sleepeth," and TOR some wise
reason He has taken her to that better
world, where sorrow and signing shall flee
away. Wherefore, let us comfort one an
another with these words:
"She is not dead, the child of our affection,
But gone into that school
Where she no longer needs our poor protection
Bat Christ Himself doth rule.
"In that great %cloister's stiffness and seclusion
By the guardian angels led
Safe from temptation, safe from sims pollution
She lives whom we call dead"

suffering would work out for her a far more

In Heaven above where those whom We love so
well,
Need never again say farewell"
