When death invades the happy home
and takes away one of its members, the
sorrow left is often heavy and crushing.
While the parents, brothers and sisters
will miss his innocent and joyous pratt
tie, though his absence creates an ach-
ing void in the household, yet all can
rejoice in the knowledge that his pure
spirit has escaped the woes and evils OF
this world and will be forever at rest
and enjoy eternal bliss.
God leaves. our hsarts all desolste
ansplanted into bliss they now
Trsdorn immortal bowers.
| III where he sees smile too bright,
| An- hearts too pure for faint or vice,
sfe bea - that world of light
To dNSa'ln Paradise. ID. b. NJ
Mrs. KATE PUSSLER departed this
life August 4, 1893, beloved wife of John
Pussler, aged % years and months.
May she rest in peace
She was a kind mother and loving
wife. She bore her sufferings with pa
thence, trusting in God. She never muir
INJURED, but calmly waited the final sum-
mons which she knew must soon come.
Death brings sorrow and gloom at all
times, whether it be the young and
sprightly, or the old and the infirn. Its
sorrows are the same in this case. She
leaves n husband and five poor little
children to be raised up in this wide
world without the guiding hand of
a mother. Through weary weeks of suf-
fering the cross she was glad to bear,
the doctrines of Christ adjoining the
thorns, or the palm to wear her patient
trust in the Master no earthly pain could
dim. To His will she bowed in meek
ness and now she is crowned with Him.
Oh, how can we give thee up,
You whom we loved so well,
How can we drink the bitter cup
And learn TO say farewell!
Friendship and love have done their best
And now can do no more;
Her gentle spirit passed away,
Her sufferings are all DER.
Farewell, dear sister, with whom were
spent
So many hours of sweet content;
All, words of ours can never tell
How sad il is to say farewell.
By HER HUSBAND AND SISTER.

Of St Mary's county, LILLIAN, only

tumn Gay.
Oh. wake her not. Sweet Spirit. to suffer again,
She's free from all sorrows, all suffering and
pain.
oh. think how she suffered and moaned in her
her pain.
In the long night hours we soothed her in vain,
Till God In His mercy sent dJwn from above
An angel that whispered q message OF love.
A tear within a father,s eye.
A mothers aching heart.
Can only tell the aeoiy

Yes. we had a little Lillian once.
She was our joy and pride:
We loved her, oh perhaps too well,
For socn she slept and died.
No more sorrow. no more tears,
No mora suffering. no more fears.
Resting sweefly with God above.
Little Lillian. our precious love
