JeWeled Pottery the
Latest Society Fad

An absolutely new and rather start
ling idea in pottery is being shown by
a New York Wholesale house. says the
Dry Goods Economist. This is a line
of jeweled pottery. We have had
jeweled glass for many years. and
lamp shades inset with sparkling
mock gems have been active sellers
for several seasons. but pottery inset
with mock Jewels is indeed an innova-
tion worthy of note.
This new idea is carried cut in egg

various elaborate fora! designs, the
cuttings being filed in with mock

Swimming is one of the most de
iightful. as well as probably the most
useful of exercises for women. Not
only do the limbs get an equal share
of exercise but the perfect freedom
from the trammels of dress allow eX-
ceptional play for the muscles OF the
body. From the extraordinary inter
est which women have recently taken
in swimming it is probable that they
may rival men in their powers of
aquatic endurance.

AT REST.
The Remains of Mrs. N. L. Miller
Inferred in the jennings Gene
ferv On Wednesday,

Written for the RECORD.
The angel of death has again
visited Jennings and taken away
the beloved lady mentioned
above. In the midst Of life we
are death. That sentence was
truly shown, when He who
ruleth called hence the SUBJECT of
this sketch. Who among us for
moment thought that she would
be called so suddenly away to
meether maker? What a shock
i, was to her vast legion of
friends when they learned that
on Monday night last at ten
O'Clock her earthly career was
ended. Truly speaking, it
caused deep feeling Of regret
in this community where she
was so well and favorably known.
Her death brings forcibly 10
mind the Immortality of the soul.
A vacant chair is left in the fam
lily circle-mother, the idol of the
home, and the spirit of true,
concise and devoted mother is
numbered with the heavenly
hosts.
Her life speaks her own eulogy.
Her noble acts Of kindness; her
love for those afflicted with sick
ness, and her kindly disposition
to lend a helping hand in allaying
the hand of affliction among her
friends, was always visible. In
her own immediate family circle
she was dearly loved. To her,
the happiness Of her family, as
far as this earth is concerned,
was always foremost in her mind.
And to her husband she was a
helpmate in all that the word i'm.
plies. Endowed with disposi-
ton to ever do what she thought
was her duty was one of her
strong points. She was one of
natures noble women, and such
a life does not end here-it goes
beyond to that home not made
with hands. In the death of this
lady Jennings loses a loyal and
helpful citizen. Not alone was
she Christian by profession,
but she practiced Christianity in
her daily routine of life. The
writer has known her for the
past seventeen years, and had
ample opportunity to judge hel
many good qualities. She was
full (not only Of loving mothers
devotion) but her disposition
was to carry sunshine into the
homes of others, ,and,especially il
ad minstering to the sick.
What better Illustration coule
one ask Of her standing in this
community, than to witness hel
funeral on yesterday. Behold
that vast array of fowers-they
spoke in silence of the esteem si1
w hich she was held. What bet
ter evidence could we ask than t,
behold the large number O
friends who paid the last tribute
of respect? Stop for a momen
and Judge Of the sympathy tina
was displayed. It was the sym
pa thy that spoke from the heart
and felt that the work of tn
grim reaper had caused yacanc,
that is keenly felt.
There is one grand consolation
t hat the writer would offer to tn
bereaved family, and ,that is
that while her earthly career il
ended, there is that belief of
reunion in the hereafter. Tha
is the sweetness Of life of know
ing that the family circle will b.
united in the hereafter. Such
feeling is always felt by then
who believe in the mmortalit,
of the soul. That is a precious
and comforting thought. 1t in
spires the heart with hope AM
