The Holden Reunion.
YALE, MIGIz

For years it has been the custom of
the Holden family to have reunion on
New Years day. This year the gather
ing was with Grant Holden, at his resi-
dence on the corner of Mechanic and
Kennefick streets. The company con-
sisted of the grandmother, her child
rem, grandchildren and other relatives
in all about 40 were present. Among
those from u distance, we note that g..
II. Holden and family, of Standish, and
Will and Jess with their families, from
Brown City were in attendance.
There is something indescribable in
all reunions of friends and this quality
is much intensified when the gathering
is Of parents, sons and daughters,
grandchildren and other close rela-
tives. There is the feeling growing
out Of years of home association which
no stranger can feel. And how rich
the memories of other years, as that
memory is stirred by the home coming
the gathering after years of separ.
alton, it may be, in the old place and
about the common hearthstone. There
is no banquet on earth which equals
such feast. The greetings given, the
souls bridging by love the wide span of
intervening years, or as often happens,
these years for the time are blotted out
and the guests are boys and girls again.
The enjoyment, the bliss which comes
from such reunions is closely akin to
that awaiting us above.
The assembly last Tuesday was a
soulful and happy one. Old and young
alike enjoyed themselves OH this the
first day of the new year, and the be-
ginning of a new century. To attempt
a description of the dinner served, of
the happy circle which surrounded the
tables, the merriment that flowed, and
the unbounded JOY Of the meeting, is a
folly we will not at present commit.
There is something about a dinner of
this kind, and the relish of the eaters
as they encircle the tables, which even
type cannot tell. May the circle as it
widens from year to year, remain un-
broken, and may many like home
comings be in store for the guests in
years to come.

Elder NeWnan's Lecture.

AT the Disciple church last Monday
evening large congregation assem-
bled to hear Elder G.. b. Newman, of
Detroit, deliver his lecture on "The
Creation of Atmosphere" The air
which surrounds our globe was dwelt
upon in its nature and uses, and then
used as text for the lecture. The
speaker drew vivid picture of the
mental and moral atmosphere that SUI
rounds all homes and society. He
said boy or girl reared in the right
kind of home and place, breathing
the right kind of air in companions and
books, was almost sure to be mentally
and morally healthy. He made it quite
plain on the other hand that no one
could expect to have or maintain this
state and go on breathing tainted air.
The lecture was forceful and full of
good solid thought, and the lecturer is
evidently deep and ready thinker on
a wide range of topics, otherwise he
could not have been the ready talker
he proved himself to be. The evening
was rich repast to all present. Per-
haps the most serious and only criti-
cism we could offer, is the lecturers
| highest praise. A deep and forceful
preacher cannot be q successful plat
form lecturer, ifby that is meant mere
polite entertainer. The cast of his
mind, the intense moral feelings which
make good and forceful preacher,
disqualify him from being an actor-a
mere buifoon. And it is for this very
reason that Mr.. Newnan's lecture was
grand. He felt that both he and his
message had a high mission, and he had
the power of personality, the heart all
aglow with his theme, and the burning
words Of earnest speech, to impress his
hearers. The lecture abounded in
wit and wticisms; but there was a
weight about it which left every hearer
the richer and better for the evenings
entertainment

a Deep Mystery.

It is a mystery why women endure
backache, headache, nervousness, mel
ancholly, sleeplessness, faintiDg and
dizzy spells when thousands have prov
ed that Electric Bitters will quickly
cure such troubles. "I suffered for
years with kidney trouble" writes Mrs
Phebe Cherley, of Peteson, Ia, ''and o
lame bank panied me so could not
dress myself, but Electric Btters Who'll
ly cured me, and, although 73 years
old, now am able to do oil my house
work." 1t overcomes constipation, inn
proves appetite, gives perfect health.

The Funeral.

The funeral service attending Mrs
James Bright's obsequies took place at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. E. r. Beech
er, at IL o'clock last Sunday morning.
1t was among the most largely attend
ed funeral services held in Yale for a
long time. The capacity of the home
with its many and wide rooms was
fully tested, and many could not gain
entrance. The unusual circumstance
of the deceased almost literally termin-
ating her bridal tour by walking into
the grave, seemed such a sad ending
for one so young and with such bright
prospects, that deep sympathy was felt
| by the whole community and this
manifested itself by the immense
throng in attendance.
The service was brief and simple,
and consisted of singing by the choir,
reading of scripture, prayer, and lesson
pointing by the officiating minister.
Following the church service came the
very beautiful and impressive ritual
of the OES of which society deceased
was member. This service was in
charge of e. +. Fead, who performed
the duties of Worthy Patron in the
| Order.
At the close Of these services the
form Of the beloved wife, daughter
and sister was borne, between ranks
which did the honors of the Order, to
the awaiting funeral cortege in which
it was borne to the Silent City. Here
was the closing ceremony, as with bat
ed breath and in sad silence, the body,
enclosed in beautiful casket, which
itself was wreathed in flowers, was
lowered in a tastefully lined grave.
An iron self-locking vault had been
provided, into which secure keeping
the casket was consigned. A marked
feature Of the Obsequies was the abun-
dant flowers enshrouding the coffin,
and the floral decorations sent in by
the Order and others. 1t was in the
midst of this array of most beautiful
designs that the form of the loved one
lay in state; her robe making one think
Of the scripture prepared as bride,
adorned for her husband"
Among those attending the funeral
from abroad we note the presence of
j. l.. Benedict and wife, G. Noble and
wife, of Brown City; Mr.. and Mrs.
Mason, of Detroit; Mrs. Bright and
daughter mother and sister of the bereft
husband, of Baden, Ont, also Charles
Bright, a brother from Brown City;
Minnie Barnum; and also Mr. and Mrs.
Lawson, of Detroit.
The bereft ones wish us to express
in their behalf their appreciation and
thanks for the kindness shown them in
the midst of sorrow, and the countless
ministrations rendered, and aid rem
dered at the obsequies.
