planned that it represented an evening
dress with very decolleteNeck and short
sleeves.
The material was foulard, with
small figures upon it, such as was worn
last year. The waist was of the same,
trimmed with old blue ribbons and
belted with crush girdle Of black silk.
The novelty lay in the yoke, which
was of white China silk, laid perfectly
smooth. II was finished with double
band of old blue ribbon at the throat.
The sleeves were of black silk to
match the girdle, and with that rather
singular dress she wears black suede
gloves. HELEN GREY PAGE.

Obituary

Mrs. Marrien Wells, nee Tur-
ner, was born January :, 1877,
joined the Baptist church during
the year 1889, and lived a consis-
tent Christian life during her So
journ here on earth. On August
l., 1897, she was happily married
to Mr.. John l.. Wells of Dunnpl-
Ion, Florida, with good prospects
of long, useful and happy life,
but Gods ways often are not our
ways, and many of his dispensa-
tions with his children i'm this life
are dark and mysterious to finite
minds. We know that '.all things
work together for good to those
who love and serve God" and
that in the day of final scrutiny
these dark and mysterious deal
inGs will be made plain; and that
'the Great Judge Of all the earth
will do right"
On August ,, 1898, this pure
and good sister CALMLY passed
over the river Of death, and is
now basking in the sunlight OF
Gods pleasure amid the pure and
good. She left Il bright little in-
FAINT son just three days old, who
is being tenderly cared for by
LOVING grandparents. The inn
mediate cause OF her death was
blood poison.
Daring her illness she had
every aLi@utIon that "a devoted
LOVING husband, fond parents. IN
expert nurse, three skilled phySi-
citnS and other loved ones could
render.
Her remains were Inferred in
ST. Johns cemetery among other
loved ones gone before, and the
large concourSc OF citizens assem-
bled on that occasion demon
strated the universal esteem IN
which she was held by all who
knew her.
The writer knew the subject OF
this obituary from childhood
through her short but useful life.
She was gentle, kind and atfable
in her department., and was as n
bright sunbeam to all with whom
she mingled. To the heart
stricken husband, father, mother,
brother and other bercaved loved
ones we extend profound sympa-
thy, and humbly and trustingly
commend them to the tender care
of Him that doeth all things well.
Another bright jewel has been
garnered to the final rest of God s
people, and as these loved ones,
one by one, pass away they will
find MarrIen at the beautiful gate
where she had been waiting and
watching for them.
