that In this world like begets like,
kindness produces kindness and all
good bears the fruit OF joy Have
courage and under the great arch OF
Hope let the dead sleep. Listen 10
your heart, believe what IL says and
wait with patience and without fear
for what the future has for all.
From her earliest childhood Luella
was full OF sunshine and jollity. 1t
beamed from her very countenance ard
blossomed out In her every act. She
was Familiarity called ''Pussn by her
associates and naturally so for no romp
in the woods, no sleighride party, no
social gathering, no schoolday ever
contained a happier or livlier DISPOSE
tion and there was no lack for mirth
where she was. She was not looking
for sorrow or grief in her own life but
innocent pleasures. Nor did she ever
knowingly bring sadness to any heart.
Yet Notwithstanding her mirthfulness
she could not endure to see any one
suffering and many are the times when
she has as-isted-as some of us we'll
KNOWN making easier the burdens
others had to bear. She was loved by
her teachers and the school and was
most affectionately admired by her
classmates. We shall meet but we
shall miss her, there will be one vacant
place. Oh, Luella, shall we never see
your form in our midst! Alasl No;
but your sweet memory with its be-
nign influence shall never depart from
US.
These roses are emblems of our love
and never ending devotion to her men,
DRY. Oh, beautiful roses! How she
loved thee.
"A sunbeam warmed thee into blood,
zephyr's kiss thy beauty gave
The tears of evening shed perfume,
And moon will beam upon thy grave.
How like TO thee thou transient flower,
The doom of all we love on earth;
Beauty, like thee, but decks an hour,
Decay feeds on it from its birth"
What pleasures and joys these beau
tiful flowers bring to us and yet how
soon they wither and pass away, even
as the life of our dear one. We may
speak of it as having passed into the
silent tomb but we know that never in
all the holiness Of her living presence
was that life so completely before us
as today, for we remember her happy
presence, her pleasant greetings, her
welcoming smile, but more than all we
remember what she was: our friend so
true: our classmate so kind. Such a
life cannot pass into the silent tomb; it
is not simply brief existence OF Is
years, but it is and endless power. Let
this life so sweetly lived in our midst
accomplish much by inspiring us all to
live the lives of true manly men and
women.
Farewell Dear Luela. The world
is better for your life-the world is
greater for your death. Farewell!
We loved you living, oh. SO tenderly;
Oh! so devotedly. and we love you now.
THE day without cloud is passed,
And thou vert noble 10 the last.
Extinguished, not decayed;-
AS stars that shoot along the sky
Shine brightest as they fall from high"

MRS. wEBsTER's TRIBUTE.

Once more we are brought face to
face with that mystery which man calls
death. The funeral rite is a natural
sacrament which has been observed in
some form, by all people, from the
earlist period of the worlds history,
and we are assembled here today, in
accordance with an impulse as univer-
sal as the human race and as enduring
as love and sympathy to perform the
last earthly duty to her who now lies
in the stiffness of death before us. For
her LIES fitful dream on earth is over,
with its joys and its sorrows its hopes
and its disappointments. She derived
her being from nature the kind mother
of US all, and her body returns to
earth's capacious bosom. She basked
in life's sunshine for her allotted time
and has passed into the shadowy role
which separates this breathing world
from the vast beyond. 1t is always a
solemn and impressive occasion when we
meet to consign human being to the
grave. but it should never be an occa-
sion of despair. 1t becomes US be-
levers in the completeness of the won
derous universe even to bear in mind
that as living beings we are but parts
OF a mighty whole; links in an infinite
chain of existence. Her death-bed was
not surrounded with terrors nor the
future filled with gloom. In the pres
ence OF death beliefs wither and decay.
Loving words and deeds burst into
blossom. In every heart there grows
the sacred flower of eternal hope and
and for this hope we are not indebted
to any book. 1t is born of human affec-
tion and has ebbed and flowed in the
human heart in all ages and in all
lands-and will still be found where
love kisses the lips of death. Death at
the worst is but dreamless sleep, a
perfect rest. The sadness of the pres
ent occasion is the loss of one to the
bereaved who was near and dear to
them and whose place can never more
be filled on earth; the sadness of others
is the manifestation OF human sympa
thy. This the noblest attribute OF our
humanity--to weep with those who
weep-to rejoice with those who re-
joice. Our duties and our obligations
to the living are seen clearest through
the tears of bereavement. Men may
come and men may go; flowers fade
and warm hearts cease their throbbing
and generation after generation go
down TO the sepulcher OF ages but none
