CATHERINE
HAAS DEAD AT
RIPE OLD AGE.

Mrs. Catherine Haas, relict of David
Haas, died September the 9th, 1907,
aged 81 years, 3 months and 16 days.
Catherine Hines was the maiden name
of the deceased. She was born near
Shannondale, Clarion Co., Pa. She was
married to David Haas 73 years ago.
Eleven children we're born unto this
couple; six are living and five have
preceded her to the great beyond. The
living are, John Haas, of New Salem,
Clarion county, Mrs. Catherine Hollen-
baugh, of Panic, Mrs. Eliza Troutman,
of New Salem, William Haas, OF PUNK
sutawney, Mrs. FRAME Vanhorn, OF
Hawthorne, and David Haas, of New
Maysville. She is also survived by 64
grandchildren, ll9 great grandchildren
and 46 great great grandchildren.
Mrs. Haas was baptized in infancy and
Joined the German Reformed church
when a child. She was waiting and
ready for the summons and longed to be
with Christ, her husband aud her loved
ones gone before.
Ninety-on years dear Grandma lived,
Within those walls Of clay:
She felt the structure wearing out
And then she moved away.
Many long years she spent on earth,
Her steps were weak and slow;
When Jesus said, Your work Is done,
Grandma was glad to go.
He took her to his home above,
Where all is bright and fair;
There Grandma plays the golden harp
And sings with the angels there.
There is no death in Jesus home,
No sickness, pain or night;
No suns bright raysneed there to shine,
For Jesus is the light.
There Grandma walks the streets Of gold,
And looks DER fields of green;
She lives within bright Jasper walls
That we have never seen.
She sees the river pure of life
Like crystal clear and calm,
Proceeding from the heavenly throne
OF God and OF the Lamb.
The pearly gate stands open wide,
Avlsion we behold
Grandma Is beckonng us to come
And dwell in Jesus fold.
Over four-score years, how long 1t seems,
But all these years have passed,
Now she has just begun to live
Eternity shall last.
And God shall wipe away all tears,
No aching hearts are there,
Butmnsic sweet forever floats
On heavens balmy air.
We know Grandma has met loved ones,
That once with her did stay
Let us rejoice, but never weep,
For Christ moved her away.
A FRIEND.

Out of Sight.

"Out of sight, out OF mind" is an old
saying which applies with special force
to sore, burn or wound that's been
treated with Bucklen's Arnica Salve.
It's out OF sight, out of mind and out
OF existence. Piles TOO and chilblains
disappear under its healing influence.

of secreting them.
