HICKS FEBRUARY FORECASTS.

The first storm period in February is
central on the 4th, covering the end to 9Th
The first stages will be warm in most Sec
tions, with low barometer, aud rain and
thunder southwark, but the period will
eliminate in heavy sleet and snow, a
high barometer and rushing, blizzardous
winds down from the northwest. Wintry,
disagreeab.e weather will follow after
these storms quite up TO the reactionary
storm days central on the 10th and 18th.
On and about these dates there will be
marked changes to falling barometer,
warmer weather aad more storms of
rain aud snow. Another decided change
to colder, with high barometer and north
west winds, win result at the close of
these reactionary storms.
The next regular storm period extends
from the IA to the 18th. The disturbances
beginning about the 10Th, 18th and 18th
will not subside until after the 18th and
goth. The hardest storms may lie ex-
pected from Monday the 18th to Wed
nesday the Goth. Continued unsettled
weather, with squalls of rain and snow
will likely prevail into and through the
reactionary storm days, 21st to 2Srd, af.
ter which very wintry temperatures for
the season may be expected very gen.
orally. Sudden blasts of cold following
on the heels of warm rains and thunder
will be most natural through last part OF
February.

IN MEMORIAnI.

In memory Of Mrs. Maggie A. Davis,
Who died November 18th, 1900
The requiem has been sung and per.
naps the last tear over the parted one
has been shed; the body has sank into
that silent and pathetic dust that will at
last equalize us all, the soul we veritably
believe is with the holy and righteous in
that fair country where all Is bliss and
where the river of pure love never has
its ebbing. The now sunken and ship
wrecked bark had sailed the seas of many
worldly troubles for sixty-eight years,
but like a true Christian sailor has
weathered the gales of Satan by faith in
God, looking to Him for the promised
crown Of life. She at last reached the
harbor where the anchor is cast iuto
peaceful waters and where the sails
arc forever furled, the spirit departing
hence to be judged in that day, and re-
warded according TO the conduct of the
life behind.
Silently and patiently was her journey
while here below. With true love Of God
did she take the yoke of duty upon her
as she understood 1t, and many years
did she learn of Him who is meek and
lonely of heart, and we believe she
found rest upon her soul aud pleasure
in the thought of dying. waiting ten days
after being apprised that her life would
soon inevitably be at it send and express
ing joy that life's pains and labors would
soon be ended.
Blessed are the holy and righteous, for
they shall see God. j. w. w.
