real beauty of the table decorations
and the general environments, so
lavishly ana effectively was this en-
quisite little flower used. The par
lor was adorned with huge bowls Of
narclssi and tall vases of Gala Ill
lies. Knowing the open, frank ma

and her unwillingness to disclaim
any honor that isn't due her, we are
not afraid 10 assert without any in
terrogations that those beautiful
lilies were grown by none other,
than that successful flower grow

Our Lenten services are interest
ING and the lectures by our Rector
are very instructive and we note
with great degree of pleasure the
good attendance. Still there is ore
gentle sweet smiling face that we
always miss. One who during her
life (when it was possible) let moth
ing keep her from chufcn ser
vice. Now that she has exchanged
her earthly lent for an everlasting
Easter with her Saviour. we feel
that her sainted spirit is ever how
ering DER all those. she loved; and
it makes the service all the more
beautiful. all the more impressive
and inluitively these lines come to
us.
One less at home! "
The charmed circle broken, dear
Face missed day by day from Its
accustomed place.
But cleansed and saved and perfect
ed by grace:
One more in heaven.
