Little Mary Keeper Dies,

The saddest sight in this world to us
is the death Of a child, and yet we are
taught to ''Suffer little children to come
unto Me and forbid them not, for OF
such is the Kingdom of heaven" The
home Of Mr.. and Mrs. T. B. Keeper
was visited last Monday by the angel
of death and little Mary, their 5 year
old baby girl, was kissed to sleep. She
had been i'll several days with typhoid
fever and whooping cough and had re.
ceived every attention that fond pa.
rents and sisters could bestow, but the
frail body could not withstand the at
tacks of the combined diseases and
death came as a relief from suffering
and pain. To the bereaved family we
extend u sincerest sympathy.
The remains we're taken to Lime.
stone Tuesday and buried in the old
family graveyard.

In Their Own Hive.

One of the largest real estate deals
of modern times (since the BOOM was
contaminated last week when Messrs.
Ward & Friberg purchased the Hale
property on Main street now occupied
by The Bee Hive. The building fronts
90 feet on Main and Market streets and
is 100 feet deep, two stories high, and
is the largest store-room in the city,
but is scarcely large enough for the
enormous stock Of general merchan-
disc carried by this firm. They are
progressive and now that they are in
their own hive, we may expect q swarm
in business, as it we're.
