continued for several days.
Every house in the city was rem
dered untenable and the people
had to take refuge in the parks
and open spaces. Millions of
dollars damage was done and a
score lost their lives. Thisis the
third time the city has been de.
stroyed. The first in 1541, the
second in 1773 and now this
third catastrophe. In normal
times such a visitation would
excite the world, but the world
is now too much involved in far

call came she fell quietly asleep in Jesus,
with a full realization of the fact that she
had fought good fight. and had kept the
faith. Peace be to her remains and rev.
erence to her memory. We would in love
and sympathy point the bereaved ones to
Jesus, who can be touched with the feel.

"a The January Garden

The first good spell after New
Years the round-seeded, smooth,
early garden peas can beplanted.
But the wrinkled peas had better
not be sowed till late February as
they are apt to rot in the cold
ground. Sweet peas should also
be sowed. These must be early
if you get any flowers, for they
soon succumb to hot weather.
These should have special
fertilizing and should a trellis of

Make trenches a foot deep and
fill them half full of old rotten

and plant the peas and cover
them three inches deep.
