IN MEMORIAM.

On Sunday December IL, 1910, at
six o'clock In the evening, an angel
called at the home OF MIR. and Mrs,
James Montgomery and carried
away our little darling Marie. We
asked God to spare our darling to
us, but He knew best as He always
does, and II was His will that we
should not have this darling In our
nome any longer. Little Marie was
so dear to us all, and how we do
miss her sweet little voice and her
beloved angel face! But her little
spirit had taken its flight to that
city pure and bright and Is now
resting with the angels; for remem-
Der that God hath said in his Holy
Word, "Suffer little children and
forbid them not, to come unto me,
for of such Is the Kingdom of Hea.
ven."
Our little darling Marie
Was the light OF our households
No swceter child could one ever see,
No sweeter face could angels behold.
We miss her to-day-our hearts are sad,
But when we think of Gods loving
care
And his sweet promises, we are glad
To know our darling is awaiting us
up there.
Little Marie was born September
;, 1908, and departed this life ut the
age OF two years, three months and
nine days. Besides mother and
father, there are two sisters, Lizzie
and Lille, and two brothers, Harry
and Other, to mourn the loss of our
darling babe.
Funeral services were conducted
by Rev. VIM. Stuart at = O'Clock
Monday afternoon, and the little
form was laid to rest In the Hamil-
ton cemetery.

ments of eggs in 1909 amounted to
7,159.4S1 dozen, or 1,S46,OOO dozen
more than in 1908. In addition 12O,O1S
dozen of poultry were shipped. an in

lowing for Matching and consumption
Q,250,000 DOZEN, the Petaluma dis
trict produced last year over 100000
600 eggs.
One hatchery alone produces 100000
chicks a month and runs to full capac
ity most of the year. The demand for
eggs Is so great that in spite Of this
great production at Petaluma and
also productions at other points Cali
fornia is compelled to import from
the east several million dozen each
year. For the entire state the ship
ments of eggs last year totaled a.
601,99S dozen.

a plan to withdraw the monarch's love
from the princess and win it for her
self. 10 carry out this plan it was
necessary for her to leave the stage.
This she did and retired to private
life.
Her next move in order t be
brought in contact with the king was
to enter the service OF the princess.
Gretchen's career or the stage had
given her Ill acquaintance with Il num-
Der OF prominent persons. and to these
she applied for their influence to Sc
cure the position she desired-that of
reader. The duties OF reader are. as
the name indicates. to read aloud for
the amusemen or instruction of the
employer. Gretchen was appointed to
the place she coveted and in this way
met Louis on occasions when he Wis
ited his betrothed.
But neither the beauty nor the wiles
of the actress could draw the king
from his allegiance. A breach must be
made between the two before Gretchen
could hope to effect an entrance to his
heart. The many presents the king had
given the princess were not kept so
securely but that the reader had &C.
tunity occurred she took from these
gifts a half hoop of turquoises shaped
like forgetmenots. intending to make
an especial use Of it.
There was among the officers Of the
kings bodyguard one whom we shall
call Carl. He had been struck by the
beauty of the princess reader. and she
for a purpose had entered into a mild
Irritation with him. She gave him the
turquoise half hoop rs a mark Of her
favor, asking him to it for her
sake. The young man. proud Of his
supposed conquest. was not slow to
exhibit the proof of 1t before his royal
master. and Louis was shocked at see
ing in possession Of another a gift he
had given his betrothed.
1t is only in real stories that people
violate every doctrine of probability.
One would suppose that any man In
his senses seeing his present in posses
sion of another. would have made an
Investigation. Louis did not even ask
the guardsman how he came by the
tranket. Perhaps the doctrines Of prob
ability do not apply In cases of jealous
lovers. At any rate. there are many in.
stances to show that ordinary sense
and common prudence do not. King
