the most appropriate title that could
be obtained and if they do not name
the quartette soon we will introduce
them to the public with name of our

Mr.. and Mrs. c. A. Wager, of Viola
township, mourn the loss of their
little boy who passed away and was
laid to rest Sunday in the cemetery at

sorrow and overhung with gloom.

OF days past in youthful prattle and
childhood lnnocense and the cherish
ed and expected hope of meeting the

pure and the good dwell in eternal
bliss awaiting those who are left be-
hind for a few short tleeting wears.
