In MemOriam
Of our dear mother, Ellen Nelson, who died
June 23d. 1899.
Conc from earth; yes, gone forever;
Tear-dimmed eyes Shall gaze in vain;
We shall hear her voice, no, never,
Never more on earth again.
In the cold and silent graveyard,
In her narrow casket bed,
They have placed our darling mother
With the calm and peaceful dead.
Oil chide us not for weeping,
For sorrow shades our brow;
We miss her from her place;
We have no mother now.
Wake her not, the Saviour called her;
Sweetly, calmly, let her rest;
We shall miss our mothers foot-step
And her voice of cheering worth.
We must not by bitter wailing
Lure her back to cares of earth. N. n.
In Loving Remembrance of John
Craig Warner,
who departed this life on Friday, July %. 1890

Little Craig, he was our darling,
Pride of all our hearts at home;
But the angels came and whispered,
Darling Craig, you must come home.

Burden of the Rich.

No sovereign is so rich as the emperor
of Russia, and no sovereign has such
heavy calls upon his purse. The Grand
Dukes Vladimir, Alexis, Serge and Paul
Alexandrovitch, as well as the Grand
Duke Michael-Nicholejevitch, as the
cons of emperors of Russia, receive
from the head of the house an annual
sum of $4,000 rubles, which, added
to their private means, makes them
very rich. The wives and widows of
Russian grand dukes receive 10000 ru-
bles, their sons 100000 rubles. It was
the late. emperor, Alexander Ill, who
made the rule that every member of the,
Russian imperial family must spend a
part of the year in Russia or else lose
a third of his or her allowance-Chi-
