DBITI AIRY,

Sister NJ. \. Willoughby was born in
Baton Rouge, La, Dec. 10th, 1852, pro
fessed religion and joined the Baptist
Church at the age of lG years, in Cen
tralia, I'll. She was the mother of ten
children, one dead and nine yet living.
For some months before her death
she was sorely afflicted. 1t was my
privilege to visit her often during her
sickness. Every visit she would have
me read Gods word, then we would
talk over the lesson together and after
wards join in prayer. 1t was an in
spiration to be with her. She possess.

takes to make Christianity ''the light

this scripture, For | know whom |

To hear her tell how she knew whom
she had believed, why she was per-
suaded that He was able to keep that
which she had committed unto Him,
how she had deposited her destiny in
the hands of an all-wise God, and no
longer than the night before had turn
ed over her husband and children into
the hands of the Lord and felt sure
that He would care for them.
Earnest, sweet spirited and triumph
ant in her expression, she said she
felt like she was going on the most
pleasant journey of all her life. No
one could have doubted the presence
of the Holy Spirit with her, who heard
her last words and beheld her glowing
face. She died July 9Th, 1900; age, A

Arrested Italy's Queen.

Queen Margherita of Italy loves to
go about incognita and in this way in
dulge her great fondness for mountain
climbing and bicycle riding. When she
travels in the Alps, she goes as q COM
moner, and few learn her identity. She
stops at chalets for the night, sharing
the simple food of the Alpine folk, and
as her costume is in the simplest style
she passes for anything but queen.
When she began to ride a bicycle, 1T
was her habit TO go into royal park
unattended. On one of these solitary
wheeling trips she was unceremonious-
ly arrested by royal guard and con-
Quoted in spite of her protests, before
the captain of the force. The guard
laughed at Ter statement of her identi-
ty, considering it an evidence of par
ticularly bold imposition. At head
quarters, however, he was told of his
blunder by his horror stricken captain,
who promptly recognized his royal mis-
tress. Queen Margherita asked that
the offender should not be discharged
nor punished, and as he FRUSTRATED
himself at her feet she gave him q
gold coin with her face upon it, laugh
ingly advising him to study it well
that he might recognize his queen
when he saw her.-Harper's Bazaar.

Mrs. Lou DeceIl Mcdaniel.

On August End, at Shreveport, La,
the spirit of Lou Decell, wife of E. Nc
Daniel, was called out of the material
life by the Divine One and transr liant
ed in the home above. Mrs. McDan-
iel was stricken with the fatal malady
when her baby boy was thtee days old
and after nine days of suffering, which
she bore with womanly fortitude, pass
ed into everlasting rest. Her life
seems indeed to have been but breath
as the flower of the field or as the
grass that fourishes today aud tomor-
row is cut down. Only % years com
pleted her span of existence; but be
| lieving in a Providence that ordains
aud oyerrules all things, the Borrowing
hearts who so sadly mourn her demise,
must believe that her mission was full
filed and that she was called up high
er because God willei it 50, How else
are the burdens Of life to be borne:
For two and one half years she was
the wife of the bereavel husband and
during that period became the fond
mother of two babes, both of whom are
now in the care of her mother. Mrs. J.
E, Decell, of Caseyville.
Lou Decell" was one of the love
Hest of young women, in person and
character. She had been carefully and
tenderly reared and educated, and was
fitted to adorn the home, as housewife,
or the most cultured circle of society.
She died in the faith she had professed
at the age of 16, under the Gospel min
istry of Rev. j. H. Gambrell: the one
thing only that made her death bed
| hard being the fact that she must die
among strangers and away from the
mother to whom she had been joy and
comfort through many years. As her
feet drew near the Heavenly shores,
however, all earthly shadows disap-
peared and her voice arose in song un-
til the seal of Death was placed upon
her lips
blessed are the dead who die in the Lord. -
