Just as the king of day was
sinking to it's golden bed in the
west, on the evening Of Septem-
Der 28th, 1905, many a tear OF
sorrow was shed by relatives and
friends, when the dark angel of
death entered the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Archie Wheeler and
took from them little Nina, the
idol of their hearts. Nina was
two years and five days old, and
was a bright and winsome little
girl whom every body loved, and
though the sun shines around the
lonely little grave today, the lit
tie form resting so sweetly. there
is not forgotten. The bright an
gels above are lisping praise to
Him who said, Suffer little
children to come unto me and
forbid them not, for of such is
1.-The kingdom of Heaven. And
with her sweet baby hand is
beckoning father and mother to
come on and share with her the
eternal joys Of that bright world.
The little darling is not dead but
lives with Him who said: Il am
the Resurrection and the Life. "
So live that you may meet your
sweet little darling and with her
sweet baby form. clasped to your
bosom, rest throughout eternity.

October.

| If there is one month which surpasses
I, all the others in it's gifts of natural
beauty it is October. May has its de-
votees, for May brings mature back to
life, clothes the trees with their raj
ment of green and awakens the flowers
for season; but with all its freshness
and fragrance May does not stir the
blood as does October.s Stroll into the
woods and see for yourself. For the
next four or five weeks there will be
spice in the air, tonic in the breeze
and color everywhere. Gaze from some
eminence across the land and observe
the purple maze that drapes the hills,
look at the gorgeous radiance of the
sunset, revel in the masses of purple
and gold and bronze and crimson that
deck the trees. The country resident
has the spectacle all about him; the city
dweller can catch the magic of it in the
great parks at the very edge Of town.
He cannot resist the scene--he cannot
scorn the shumach and the dogwood and
the maple and the sweet gum. He can
not turn deaf ear to the music of rum
ming water that courses through the
dying ferns, carrying fallen leaves upon
its BOSOM There may be melancholy in
the picture but it is the real beauty. 1t
is sdaness that stimulates, it is not
the sadness Of despair.
