near the Persian border, where the
bridegroom will be one of the medi-
cal officers attached to the mission
hospital. Both are young and their
marriage recently was the culmina-
ton of romance of their school days
They were school mates at Lenox col
lege in Hopkinton, Iowa. DR.. Smith
later took a degree at the Iowa state
university. The worst thing about
this is leaving our friends declared
the happy couple as they watched the
final preparations for departure just
before dark from the East Boston
pier. But a couple Of fat special de-
livery letters that were handed the
bride Just as the gang plank was TAX
en- in helped whole lot in easing
the pain of'separation from home. Diar-
berkia is about 700 miles from Con-
stantinople, but the prospect did not
seem to appal either the bride or
groom to any marked degree. You
see we won't be lonely, for we Will
be together was their parting word

A TRIBUTE.

Mrs. Peers, ap old-time resident
and a pioneer of Delaware county
aged nearly 81 years, very quietly fell
| asleep in death, at the old home in
the northeast part of town, on Tues.
day evening just as the last beams
of daylight grew dim in the west,
was not a murmur, or the flutter OF
an eyelid, to tell of the happy pass
ing, but halo of repose seemed to
patient waiting.
There is something inexpressibly
beautiful, to me, in those aged ones
who have passed the boundaries of
youth and middle age, and linger with
faltering steps upon the changeless
other shore, and this old mother
has indeed fought IIfe's rough bat
tie, and conquered many foe, there
fore has waited long for the pale
OOatman to signal her and take her
across the chill waters, beyond which
lies the Eternal City, which has been
almost in view for days past, only
was hidden by the shadowy mists,
that fall like veil between earth
and Heaven, but her trembling, with
cred hands are folded now meekly
across her breast, their labor is o'er,
and she fs resting.
Mrs. Peers leaves to mourn her loss
two daughters Miss Ida, who has
long been the soul companion of her
mother and has administered to her
every want with unfring hand, and
Mrs. Ada Noyes of this city also, and
many other relatives and friends.
The funeral was held from the
Methodist Episcopal church, of which
Mrs. Peers was life long member,
on Thursday afternoon at two O'Clock,
conducted by the pastor, Rev. Hud-
son, and interment was made in OAK
land cemetery.
Her work is done and well.
A generous, sympathetic Christian
life; .r...
A faithful mother and noble wife;
Her influence, who can tell:
Say not her work is done.
No deed of love or goodness ever
dies,
But in the lives Of other multiplies.
Say it is just begun.
: S. Ida NJ. ELDER.
