In Memoriam.

Died in Kenton, Tenn, Monday af-
ternoon at O'Clock, George Taylor,
only child of Mrs. ]. B. Wilson, aged
nineteen years, seven months and eight
days.
Great was the shock to his many
friends when the message came, George
Taylor is dead. Wherever he was
known he was loved and esteemed.
When quite young George professed
his faith in Christ and connected him
self with the Methodist Church, and
when dying he left the sweet consola-
ton that he was going home.
We would not say Weep not, dear
mother" for it is human to weep for
our departed loved ones, but we would
say, Weep not as those who have no
hope" for, sad as our hearts may be,
we can look away to the time of our
own departure and anticipate the happy
meeting with our loved ones in that bet
ter and brighter land.
Is it not sweet to think, hereafter,
When the spirit leaves this sphere,
Love, with death1ess wing shall watt us
To those we long have mourned for here?
Hearts from which twas death to sever,
Eyes this world can ne'er restore;
There as warm, as bright as ever,
Shall meet us and be lost no more"
He was laid to rest in the Stovall
burying ground beside his father, sery-
ices being conducted by Revs. Sam

FIRE AT,4BEAcH, N. D.
Several Buildings Burn; Loss Esti.
mated at About 100000.

Glendive.-Saturday nights fire at
Beach, N. D., which threatened for a
time to wipe the place out o existence,
resulted in a loss of about 100000
before the flames were almost mira
culously extinguished. Probably so
per cent of the loss is covered by in
surance.
A concrete building standing in the
pathway of the conflagration was all
that saved the town. Upon this the
people concentrated their efforts and
aided by a change in the wind, which
blew a gale at the start, were able to
con6ne the fire to a comparatively linn
tied area.
The fire started in the Model cloth
ing and shoe store, owned by a Jew
ish merchant of Fargo. A boy was
lighting the gasoline light and had
turned on the pressure from the sup
ply tank when the valve broke and
filled the room with gas. An explo-
sion resulted and the fire was soon
under full Roadway.

Third, the principle Of free will; that

"This recipe is my own idea and is
made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful
of Grape-Nuts in a glass of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white of an egg and a spoonful

even the weakest stomach can assim-
