At the Grave.

Dear friends:
Sorrow for the dead is the only sorrow
from which we refuse to be divorced.
Every other wound we seek to heal, every
other affection to forget, but this wound
we consider it a duty to keep open. The
love which survives the tomb is one of the
noblest attributes of the SOIL There is a
voice from the tomb sweeter than song.
There is remembrance of the dead to
which we turn, even from the charms of
the living
Oh, the grave! The gravel 1t buries every
error; covers every defect; extinguishes
every resentment. From its peaceful
bosom spring none but fond regrets and
tender recOllections. The grave of those
we love is place for meditation. In this
peaceful, silent couch we lay the mortal
remains of our departed brother to sleep
the long, dreamless sleep of death, on the
top of mother earth. We are consoled by
the thought that the dead are at rest. Eyes
that are curtained by the drapery of death,
shed no tears of grief; hearts of dust do
not feel 1t is the living heart that feels.
Let us so live that when the summons
comes to join the innumerable caravan that
moves toward that mysterious realm, where
each shall take his place in the silent halls
of death, we go not like the quarry slave
at night, scourged to his dungeon but
soothed and sustained by an unfaltering
trust-approach the grave like one who
wraps the drapery of his couch around him
and lies down to pleasant dreams Let us
now resolve, as a parting tribute to our
departed brother, that henceforth we will
be more faithful and affeetionate in the
discharge of our duty to the living.

None can tell us-and the questions
That we ask have no reply.
Let us live our lives with patience,

Must do all things for the best. F"

BLUE GRASS BLADE.

directed labor to overcome the difficulties
of life. He prayed more by deeds than
words. He believed that virtue was its
own reward and vice its own punishment.
He was early in life convinced of that sub
lime truth the world is governed by wise
immaterial law and in his philosophy of
life there was no need of gods nor devils.
The individual dies but the race is i'm
mortal. May the inspiration of his life in
spire his sons with high, manly ideals of
life and duty. Let us bear in mind that
the great law of moral rectitude is inherent
in humanity and is not depending for its
sanction upon any belief in a hereafter,
much less upon any particular theory OF an
after life. The moral law is a great fact
in human nature, it is one of the everlast-
ing verties that remain amid the downfall
of creeds and dogmas. No matter what
our views are about the soul or an after
life we must submit our conduct to the test
of the great laws of right. That theory of
the hereafter is best which brings the most
inspiration and strength to discharge the
duties of the hour The future is wisely
hidden from our view. The present only is
ours, and every moment brings its own
obligations. We should all be obligated to
develop the nobler faculties of our natures
and daily to approach to our ideal of
perfect manhood and womanhood. IF we
do this the world will be the better for our
having lived. Let us be remembered by the
good we have done. Let us be so engaged
in the honorable discharge of the duties of
life that we will have no time to waste in
idle forebodings and anxious fears about
the condition of our souls in another state
of existence.
"We are waiting for the coming
OF that bright and glorious day.
When the clouds that dim our vision
Will have rolled at last away.
And the light that now is hidden
From our sad and weary eyes,
Break beyond the dark deep river
Where the solemn secret lies.
Shall we find those gone before us,
Standing on the other shore,
With their hands stretched out in welcome,
Glad to clasp our own once more;
Shall we loved ones leave behind us
But to meet again on high,
In realm all peace and beauty,
Far above the summer sky.
Or shall we when life is over,
But lie down to quiet rest,
With our brains unvexed forever,
Folded hands upon the breast,
In a sleep that knows no waking,
Where no suffering or pain,
Through the coming of the ages.

FUNERAL OF LIFELONG FREE
THINKER.


1t is the dictates of love, that causes us
to cherish the hope of meeting our loved
ones, that has passed in the journey of
life beyond our horizon. So strong is the
desire. that we think with Whittier
"Some how, some where, meet we must"
or with Ella Wheeler Wilcox in her beauti-
full poem, The Beyond:
1t seemeth such little way to me across
that strange country-the Beyond
And yet not strange for it has grown to be
the home of those | am so fond.
They make it seem familiar and most dear,
As journeying friends bring distant regions
near
/ never stand above a bier and see
The seal of death set on some well loved
face
But that / think "One more to welcome me
When | shall cross the intervening space
Between this land and that one over there
One more to make the strange Beyond
seem fair.
But friends this is sentiment poetry,
Imagination. IF we must believe in
future life let it be a cheering and inspir-
ing one But the Immortality that we
should desire and should strive to obtain
is to live in the deeds we do If we live in
the deeds we do, how important becomes
every act. How brim full of meaning is
every hour of existence. This view of i'm
mortality demands that we have the cour-
age of our convictions 1t demands fidelity
to our highest conceptions of right and
duty. 1t demands that we think and plan
and work for the general good. We may
dream of another life, where misspent time
can be improved, and we even enjoy the
reverie, but let us here and now enjoy the
happiness that flows from that truer i'm
mortality of blessing mankind in the deeds we
do-If we have grasped this practical view
of Immortality we need give ourselves little
or no concern about the state of our souls
in another sphere of existence beyond the
grave. The right use of this world is the
only possible preparation for another-if
there be anOther-and if there be not an
other, future generations will find it easier
to do the right, and to enjoy more of the
higher pleasures of the world. because we
have lived and toiled and died In this
sense our departed brother is immortal
The world is the better for his having
lived and toied and died. When a young
man scarcely out of his teens with his
youthful bride by his side, he carved out of
the forests home for themselves and the
children born unto them-nine sons and
