Wise's life culniiated in a ulori s transition from rlings earthly tu e inexpressible beauty and enjoy ?nt of things eternal. Flhen fell upon the house a sudden gloom, A shadow on those features fair and thin, ad softly, from that hushed and darkened room Two angels issued, where but one went in.'' For nearly a year Mrs. Wise had t been strong. Last November she iderwent a most serious operation, ch came near proving fatal then. ?ir life was spared to gladden her me a few months longer. Since the >eration she has been failing, and range to say, but happy to know, ring all this time she had not an he or pain. We love to think that is special dispensation of provi nee was granted her because of her undless compassion for her fe!low ,atures. Mrs. Wise was a gentle, kind, ti-re ;s, ever ready, optimistic friend! )w can we bring ourselves to real that -he is no longer among us the flesh! Hard, yes. passing dif ulty is it, for us to understand this astening from Him whose ways are ) gloriously vast for our finite com ehensions-but satisfying, is the owledge that she has but preceded to the King's garden there to ick the myriads of fragrant flow s she planted therein, daily, her findly thoughts, words and eds-to old and young, rich and or, white and colored. ,Vrs. Wise was formerly Rebecca ng Birge. She was 48 years of age. venty seven y,ears ago she was trried to Mr. A. G. Wise. In Mareh, )7, they celebrated most beautifully ir silver anniversary. She still ained .her youthful color and beau As she lay in state-all in silver .y-she presented the same sweet -tu>re that so many remarked upon the anniversary. She leaves to ~ret her a devoted husband, three Lghters, Mrs. Frank Browne, Mrs. LXey Harman and Mary Lizzie; five is, Birge, John Pat, Walter, Rob ;, George; two little grand-daught , one sister, Mrs. A. H. Kohn, one >ther Mr. S. S. Birge and one aunt s. Lizzie Young, who has always ede her ,home with Mrs. Wise-and mntless feriends. She had an abiding faith and joy God, which made her strong- for r work and affliction. Pastor -eps made a few but appropriate narks at the grave. By her own re est no panegyric was, delivered, tho ver had one a fitter subject for rise, as she preferred not to have Sgood deeds mentioned. Hers was active, rather than a talkative ristianity. Mr. Kreps referred to Sas 'the salt of the earth', as one Lt 'did it unto the least of these s disciples, therefore doing it un Him,' and as having received from SSavior this salvo of welcome, Vell done.'' We miss her more than we can press, yet we do not wish her ay f-rom the life more abundant. e memory of her unselfish life is 1l left us-its sweet influence i never perish. She built her own nument in the hearts of all so for iate as to know her. And were no rian shaft ever reared to recount manifold virtures, they will live and on, till one by one, they are 'ounted of her in the bright beyond. en when she was too sick to be are of passing events, she thought others, not herself and wished to something for her husband .and Snephew. She is happy, ''but oh, difference is to us."' ... Vrs. Wise's friends are not confin to her native state-having been ~requent visitor, on account of Mr. ~se 's health, at resorts far and rn and having lived all her life at Hotel. She is remembered among ier things for her unstinted hos ality. No one ever went empty ay from her door, or carried away v but pleasant memories of her atment of them. Her home was rays a centre of generosity, cheer d welcome. As we think of her can not refrain from repeating -s. Whitney 's exquisite poem ''The eme Maker'' for it applies so aptly a truly to -her. Vhere the mountains slope to the westward. And thin purple chaliees .hold e new made wine of the sunset, r imson. ambher, and gold. -P wildep4lIn door way With elm boughs overhead, e house all garnished behind her, And her plentiful table spread. 311 MS tod to) welcome~ our coming. 'bflwed one unward climb, In1 the sweet Jume weather, Oh. many and nany a time! Today in the goden splendor Of the early sluner noon. Perfect in sunsh iie and fragrance, Altho it is har ly June. Again is her doo -way open Her house is garnished and sweet, But she silently -vaits our coming. And we enter with silent feet. A little within she is waiting, Not where we met her before. Fo-r over that pleasant threshold, She is only to pass once more. The smile on her face is quiet, A lily is on her lrezst, Her hands are foldd togeter; And the word on b kr lips is "Rest.' It is we who may n t cross over, Only with sorrow land prayer, A little way into th glory We may -reach, a we leave .her there. But we cannot thiik of her idle, She must be a homp maker still, God gives that work t the angels What fittest their tasks fulfill. And so somewhere on the hilltops Of that country that 1nows no pain She will stand in her beautiful door way To bid us welcome again. E. K. CENTA LMETHODIST CHURCH Rev. J. W. Wolling, D. D., Pastor.
