LOVERS LANE

It has been a matter of comment that the building of the cemetary road was one of the best Improvements ever made in Douglas. During the fine days in summer this road is popular with all the people. The women and children enjoy it's pleasures in the day time, and in the evening is affords a place for lovers to promenade, gaze into each others eyes, hold hands, &c.
 Douglas has outgrown the road, and the demand calls for something better. It has been suggested that the beautiful valley of Lawson creek might be turn, ed into a fiue natural park, by the building of a few bridges and trails.
 The suggestion is a good one and we are sure that the people of Douglas will support a plan to bring the beauti- ful of nature within their reach.

"Names are great things among some of my constituents" said Representa- tive Mudd, of Maryland, who comes from the black belt of that state. "There is an Episcopal preacher who was called upon to baptize child.
 "'What is his name?' asked the minister of the child's father.
 "'John James George Washington Fitzhugh Lee Blaine Harrison Smith" answered the father. The old minister iotted down the names, and then, walk ing to the baptismal font, crockery washbasin, said to the janitor:' Nose, get some more water. There ain't half enough to baptise this child if we have to take in all his ames."-New York World.

THE BUSY SEASON.

In the spring a thinner shadow hauuts the young mans pocketbook and he casts upon each nickel lean and hungry look. In the spring a brighter yellow blush is on the butter inc and boarders are suspicious of the azure-tinted cream. In the spring the festive angler from the ground eX- tracts a worm and with fendish glee impales it on a hook that makes it squirm. In the spring a woman's fancy turns to thoughts of stylish hats, while her weary, careworn husband thinks lot and murmurs Rats" In the spring the jolly farmer with a chuckle doth begin painting letters on a shingle, Summer Boarders Taken h." The bunko man gets busy-the kite is on the string-thus we realize there's always something doin' iu the spring.-Chicago News.

ELLEN CECELIA KELLY

After many months of patient suffer ing, Ellen Cecelia, the beloved wife of William H. Kelly, passed away on the morning of February the 23d. She was born at Springfield, Mass; and was aged % years, 3 months and : days. The husband and three children sur vive her, and to them, in their great loss. is given the sympathy of many friends.
 Funeral services were held at the Catholic Church on Saturday morning at 9 o'clock, Rev. Father Bougis, s. J., officiating. The tired body was laid to rest in the Douglas Cemetery. A large number of the friends and neighbors of the departed attended the last sad rites and followed the remains to the cemetary.
 But few short years ago Mrs. Kelly came to Douglas Island, a bride blessed with youth, and a sweet, loving, hope ful disposition that, as time passed, helped her to bear with most becoming fortitude the trials of sickness and pain.
 And the home was set up, and three heautiful children came to add the blessing of their presence and make the measure of joy complete, But into this loving circle came guest all un- bidden, and day by day the loving husband watched it's advance with a cold grip of fear at his heartstrings. Hoping, fearing, despairing-but still hoping-until the hour was come, and the cup could no longer be put away. This was the hour when the wife and the husband drank from the cup the dregs of the bitterness of separation; an hour sacred to her who was to pass beyond the vale, and sacred to him who must again take up Iife's burden, and carry the sad memories to the end ot Iife's journey.
 Sad, indeed, are these partings; and sad is the little home from which the mother is gone forever. But 'tis only those who are left who grieve; the soul that has rid itself of the house of clay. with the pain and suffering, mounts up as on eagles wings, to that brighter better life beyond the river. But the vail of the motherIess children causes the tear of sympathy to course down the cheek of the friend, who is power less to give them comfort.
