BEULAH LAND
1. I've reached the land of corn and
And all Its riches freely mines
Here shines undimmed one blissful
day,
For all my night has passed
away,
o Beulah Land, sweet Beulah
As on thy highest mount
stand,
/ look away across the sea,
Where mansions are prepared
And view the shining glory
My heav'n, my home, forever
morei
2. My Saviour comes and walks with
me,
And sweet communion here have
We;
He gently leads me by His hand,
For this is Heavens borderland.
3. A sweet perfume upon the breeze
Is borne from ever verna1 trees,
And flowers that never fading grow,
Where streams of life forever
flow.
4. The zephyrs seem TO float to me
Sweet sounds of heavens melody,
AS angels with the white-robed
throng
Join in the sweet redemption

While the years of eternity roll.

Its bright jasper walls can see,
Till I fancy but thinly the vel

Between the fair city and me.

Where Jesus of Nazareth stands
The King of all Kingdoms forever
is He,
And He holdeth our crowns il

So free from all sorrow and pain
With songs on our lips and harp

A business transaction of consider
able Importance was arranged last
week whereby the A. 0. Smith Co. of
Linden was bought out by the Zweifel
Mercantile Co. The last named party
Is composed of the Xweifel Bros. of
this city, Henry, Fred and Jacob. who
for the past seven years have conduct
ed grocery business here under that
firm name and established an enviahle
reputation for integrity, reliability and
cheerful, prompt service greatly appre-
ciated by large number of customers.
Possession of the Linden establish
ment will be assumed about the middle
of February and will be conducted UNI
der the name of Zweifel Mercantile Co.
They will handle a complete line of
general merchandise and succeed to a
desirable and extensive business estab-
lished by Mr.. Smith during the past
six or seven years.
There is one feature connected with
this transaction that is source of
much regret to the people of this city,
that is the fact that ii. Nj. Zweifel
will go to Linden to assume the man
agement of the business. The news Of
the removal of Henry and family from
our midst will be received with dis
pleasure as they have established a
wide circle of business and social asso-
Citations wherein their absence will be
regretted. To the people of Linden they
are not strangers, having been former
residents there, and our neighborng
village will be pleased to welcome
them back. Mr.. and Mrs. ZweifeI
moved their household goods to Linden
this week.
Recently Mr.. Zweifel was elected
president of the Methodist Brotherhood
and has for the past month assumed
the duties thereof in his usual energetic
manner. Here he will be sorely missed
and the members of the order join the
community in wishing him unbounded
success in this important undertaking.
