The death of MRS Rev. F. L. CORNISH,
at Asbury, Warren county, of smallpox
and complications which occurred on We'd
nesday, the 9th instant, will be fact of
UNIVERSAL regret in Williamstown, this
county, where her father, Timothy Read, re-
sides, and where she was well known. Besides
her husband, she is survived by four small
children, the eldest Of whom is but seven
years of age.
LEONARD GRUFF died at his home in
Franklinville on Monday last, aged 81
years, after an illness of four days of
pneumonia. He was a single man, the
support of an aged mother, and though a
laborer, had accumulated a pleasant home.
The funeral was held to-day.
ELIZABETH McILvAINE, sister of James
Park, of this city, was buried at Williams
town to-day.

Teachers, Retirement Fund.

On April 4, three teachers, members of the
retirement association, were retired, max
ing fifty since the organization Of the fund.
During the last fiscal year about three hun
bred new members have been enrolled, and
a gratifying feature of this new member
ship is that the great majority are teachers
Of from one to four years experience. This
surely indicates the professional spirit of
the young teachers. DIR. Poland, of
Newark, formerly State Superintendent,
has been appointed Honorary President OF
this Department, and Gloucester County Is
Supt. of Schools, VIM. FL. Eldridge, has
consented to serve as one OF the Honorary
Vice Presidents.

Rest.

Entered into Rest Eternal, Thursday
evening, April 10, 1902, Mrs Mary G..
Copestick, after a lingering illness of patient
suffering Mrs. Copestick was the idolized
mother of w. S. Copestick, manager of the
Union store, and Miss Florence G. Cope
stick, for several years past teacher in
Union Academy.
To the memory Of Mrs. Mary G.. Copestick
the following lines are affectionately dedicated:
Sweet as the lovely rose thy life,
And gentle as the morning dew,
Thy kindly thought reached out to all,
Thy priceless worth was known to few.
Like fairest lily of the vale
That seeks its beauty to conceal,
So thou in modest motive shrank,
Thy llfe's pure fragrance to reveal.
Too harsh the storms of earthly life,
Its stern realities and cares,
For nature sensitive as thine,
That others woes and sorrows shares.
just at the gate of Paradise
Thy spirit fingered yet to soothe
The anguish of thy children fond,
Their lone, sad pathway still to smooth.
Sweet mother, be thy spirit near
Thy faithful sorrowing little band,
Till in that longed-for hour of bliss,
They join thee in the better land.

Cash.
So 81

Such an envelope there is no need of open
ing. What you see on the front is all it
contains, and this system is practiced in
direct opposition to the State law compell-
ing employers to pay in cash instead of
store orders.
Do not believe what these agents may
tell you, but before thinking of wronging
your fellowman, enquire of the men who
are striking for their liberty and get their
side of the story. Let us practice the
motto, Give and let live." We cannot
all walk in the same path or occupy the
same position in life; let us help the slaves
of the Mores' and Jonas to win their
freedom by staying away from these places.
