MRS. CRNE0N'S FUNERAL.
ImpressiveI Service-lntermeut Ia Csrist
Church Cemetery.

The funeral of Mrs. M. A. Cannon
took place from Christ Episcopal
church Monday afternoon and was
we'll attended. Rev. H. M. P. Pearse
oficiated. The body was brought here
from Perth Amboy, where services
were held at the home of Mr.. Charles
DeWorth. Rev. E. J. Keuling, pastor
of Grace English Lutheran church,
delivered a beautiful address.
Services were begun by the singing
of "Abide With Me" and after the
pastors address, "Asleep in Jesus
was very sweetly rendered by the
same choir. MI. Keuling stated that
he was called in the evening that Mrs.
Cannon was thought be dying and
He spoke to her of Jesus and she ac-
knowledged her faith in Him and said
she had no fear and was ready to GO.
He administered the Holy Sacrament
and in a few minutes she passed oasfed
ly away, asleep in Jesus. After pray
ers by Mr.. Keu'ing, the Lady Eagles,
a society to which Mrs. Cannon be-
Ionged in South Amboy, entered the
parlor and stood around the casket,
eleven in all. Their ceremony was
very pretty. The priestess, Mrs. Dill,
read a prayer standing, while the rest
Of the members knelt. Then followed
the singing of NEARER My God to
Thee" The Noble Templar, Mrs.
Newall James, then read q part Of the
service regarding the sister lying
asleep before them and how they
would miss her. That was followed
by the marshal of ceremonies, Mrs.
O. Compton, placing a beautiful cross,
an emblem of the society, of flowers
on the casket and their taking leave.
Somehow death was robbed of its
terrors 1t was one of the most beau
tifully impressive funerals 1 yer
attended.
The floral tributes were numerous
and handsome. The Daughters Of
America, an order to which Mrs.
Cannon's daughter. Mrs. DeWorth,
belongs. sent q handsome bouquet of
flowers and there was a beautiful pill
low from the family, and q sheaf of
wheat.
Mrs. Cannon's health has been
steadily failing ever since her young
est daughter, Fannie's demise, and
she died finally of the same dread
disease, consumption, after eleven
months illness at her daughters 8. Mrs.
Charles DeWorth, of Perth Amboy.
Iuterment was made In Christ ceme-

Resting in tho arms Of Jesus,
Peacefully she passed away,
And the angels bore her upward
To the realms OF endless day.
Bore her to the gates where waited
One to bid her welcome there,
And in garments white and glistening,

Joined the heavenly band of angels

On the planet venus.

The conditions Of the planet Venus
are like those on the earth. but there
is a strong suspicion that Venus has
no night or day, but always keeps the
same side toward the sun. If this is
really the case. then the sunny side
must be always burning hot and quite
dry, while the opposite side must be
always incased in ice-nay, more. in a
mixture Of ice and solidifed atmos-
pheric gases. The life of such a world
must be very different from any that
We know.
